Li and Yorke (1975) proved that any one-dimensional system which exhibits a regular cycle of period three will also display regular cycles of every other length as well as ...

A node in a graph for which the graph eccentricity equals the graph diameter (Harary 1994, p. 41).

One petabyte is 10^(15) bytes. Unfortunately, the term is sometimes also used to mean 2^(50)=1024^5 bytes. However, the latter usage is deprecated, and the term pebibyte is ...
