Let suma_k and sumb_k be two series with positive terms and suppose lim_(k->infty)(a_k)/(b_k)=rho. If rho is finite and rho>0, then the two series both converge or diverge.

Two curves phi and psi satisfying phi+psi=0 are said to be linearly dependent. Similarly, n curves phi_i, i=1, ..., n are said to be linearly dependent if sum_(i=1)^nphi_i=0.

Loess local regression is a nonparametric technique for describing bivariate relationships where the functional form is not known in advance.

The Lucas central circle is the circumcircle of the Lucas central triangle. The center, radius, and circle function appear to be complicated, and neither the center nor the ...

The symbol ÷ used to indicate division. In typography, an obelus has a more general definition as any symbol, such as the dagger (|), used to indicate a footnote (Bringhurst ...

The hypothesis is that, for X is a measure space, f_n(x)->f(x) for each x in X, as n->infty. The hypothesis may be weakened to almost everywhere convergence.

The highest power in a univariate polynomial is known as its degree, or sometimes "order." For example, the polynomial P(x)=a_nx^n+...+a_2x^2+a_1x+a_0 is of degree n, denoted ...

Every continuous linear functional U[f] for f in C[a,b] can be expressed as a Stieltjes integral U[f]=int_a^bf(x)dw(x), where w(x) is determined by U and is of bounded ...

Let v(G) be the number of vertices in a graph G and h(G) the length of the maximum cycle in G. Then the shortness exponent of a class of graphs G is defined by sigma(G)=lim ...

The Simson line is the line containing the feet P_1, P_2, and P_3 of the perpendiculars from an arbitrary point P on the circumcircle of a triangle to the sides or their ...
