Skewness is a measure of the degree of asymmetry of a distribution. If the left tail (tail at small end of the distribution) is more pronounced than the right tail (tail at ...

A generalization of the p-adic norm first proposed by Kürschák in 1913. A valuation |·| on a field K is a function from K to the real numbers R such that the following ...

A bivariate polynomial is a polynomial in two variables. Bivariate polynomials have the form f(x,y)=sum_(i,j)a_(i,j)x^iy^j. A homogeneous bivariate polynomial, also called a ...

Let a_n>=0 and suppose sum_(n=1)^inftya_ne^(-an)∼1/a as a->0^+. Then sum_(n<=x)a_n∼x as x->infty. This theorem is a step in the proof of the prime number theorem, but has ...

The statistical index P_H=(sumv_0)/(sum(v_0p_0)/(p_n))=(sump_0q_0)/(sum(p_0^2q_0)/(p_n)), where p_n is the price per unit in period n, q_n is the quantity produced in period ...

Let i_k(G) be the number of irredundant sets of size k in a graph G, then the irredundance polynomial R_G(x) of G in the variable x is defined as ...

The mutual information between two discrete random variables X and Y is defined to be I(X;Y)=sum_(x in X)sum_(y in Y)P(x,y)log_2((P(x,y))/(P(x)P(y))) (1) bits. Additional ...

A nonuniform rational B-spline curve defined by C(t)=(sum_(i=0)^(n)N_(i,p)(t)w_iP_i)/(sum_(i=0)^(n)N_(i,p)(t)w_i), where p is the order, N_(i,p) are the B-spline basis ...

The series which arises in the binomial theorem for negative integer -n, (x+a)^(-n) = sum_(k=0)^(infty)(-n; k)x^ka^(-n-k) (1) = sum_(k=0)^(infty)(-1)^k(n+k-1; k)x^ka^(-n-k) ...

Let P=a_1x+a_2x^2+... be an almost unit in the integral domain of formal power series (with a_1!=0) and define P^k=sum_(n=k)^inftya_n^((k))x^n (1) for k=+/-1, +/-2, .... If ...
