All Mathieu functions have the form e^(irz)f(z), where f(z) has period 2pi and r is known as the Mathieu characteristic exponent. This exponent is returned by the Wolfram ...

Let A be a commutative complex Banach algebra. The space of all characters on A is called the maximal ideal space (or character space) of A. This space equipped with the ...

Maxwell's equations are the system of partial differential equations describing classical electromagnetism and therefore of central importance in physics. In the so-called ...

A subset E of a topological space S is said to be meager if E is of first category in S, i.e., if E can be written as the countable union of subsets which are nowhere dense ...

A function f:X->R is measurable if, for every real number a, the set {x in X:f(x)>a} is measurable. When X=R with Lebesgue measure, or more generally any Borel measure, then ...

The integral transform defined by g(x)=int_1^inftyt^(1/4-nu/2)(t-1)^(1/4-nu/2)P_(-1/2+ix)^(nu-1/2)(2t-1)f(t)dt (Samko et al. 1993, p. 761) or ...

For x>0, J_0(x) = 2/piint_0^inftysin(xcosht)dt (1) Y_0(x) = -2/piint_0^inftycos(xcosht)dt, (2) where J_0(x) is a zeroth order Bessel function of the first kind and Y_0(x) is ...

(1) where H_n(x) is a Hermite polynomial (Watson 1933; Erdélyi 1938; Szegö 1975, p. 380). The generating function ...

A meromorphic function is a single-valued function that is analytic in all but possibly a discrete subset of its domain, and at those singularities it must go to infinity ...

A nonnegative function g(x,y) describing the "distance" between neighboring points for a given set. A metric satisfies the triangle inequality g(x,y)+g(y,z)>=g(x,z) (1) and ...
