Given a Poisson distribution with a rate of change lambda, the distribution function D(x) giving the waiting times until the hth Poisson event is D(x) = ...

Define g(k) as the quantity appearing in Waring's problem, then Euler conjectured that g(k)=2^k+|_(3/2)^k_|-2, where |_x_| is the floor function.

A 1-form w is said to be exact in a region R if there is a function f that is defined and of class C^1 (i.e., is once continuously differentiable in R) and such that df=w.

The first isodynamic point S has triangle center function alpha_(15)=sin(A+1/3pi) and is Kimberling center X_(15) (Kimberling 1998, p. 68).

The Fourier transform of the delta function is given by F_x[delta(x-x_0)](k) = int_(-infty)^inftydelta(x-x_0)e^(-2piikx)dx (1) = e^(-2piikx_0). (2)

F_x[1/pi(1/2Gamma)/((x-x_0)^2+(1/2Gamma)^2)](k)=e^(-2piikx_0-Gammapi|k|). This transform arises in the computation of the characteristic function of the Cauchy distribution.

rho_(n+1)(x)=intrho_n(y)delta[x-M(y)]dy, where delta(x) is a delta function, M(x) is a map, and rho is the natural invariant.

A function between categories which maps objects to objects and morphisms to morphisms. Functors exist in both covariant and contravariant types.

The abscissas of the N-point Gaussian quadrature formula are precisely the roots of the orthogonal polynomial for the same interval and weighting function.

Schroeder (1991) calls the ceiling function symbols [ and ] the "gallows" because of their similarity in appearance to the structure used for hangings.
