An inaccessible cardinal is a cardinal number which cannot be expressed in terms of a smaller number of smaller cardinals.

Two events A and B are called independent if their probabilities satisfy P(AB)=P(A)P(B) (Papoulis 1984, p. 40).

The indices of a covariant tensor A_j can be raised, forming a contravariant tensor A^i, by multiplication by a so-called metric tensor g^(ij), e.g., g^(ij)A_j=A^i

A set whose members index (label) members of another set. For example, in the set A= union _(k in K)A_k, the set K is an index set of the set A.

An infinitesimal which is not the differential of an actual function and which cannot be expressed as dz=((partialz)/(partialx))_ydx+((partialz)/(partialy))_xdy, the way an ...

A graph that is not finite is called infinite.

An infinitesimal is some quantity that is explicitly nonzero and yet smaller in absolute value than any real quantity. The understanding of infinitesimals was a major ...

An inner automorphism of a group G is an automorphism of the form phi(g)=h^(-1)gh, where h is a fixed element of G. The automorphism of the symmetric group S_3 that maps the ...

Integer division is division in which the fractional part (remainder) is discarded is called integer division and is sometimes denoted \. Integer division can be defined as ...

One of the "knots" t_(p+1), ..., t_(m-p-1) of a B-spline with control points P_0, ..., P_n and knot vector T={t_0,t_1,...,t_m}, where p=m-n-1.
