Possessing two modes. The term bimodal distribution, which refers to a distribution having two local maxima (as opposed to two equal most common values) is a slight ...

The Burnside problem originated with Burnside (1902), who wrote, "A still undecided point in the theory of discontinuous groups is whether the group order of a group may be ...

A point in a weighted tree that has minimum weight for the tree. The set of all centroid points is called a tree centroid (Harary 1994, p. 36). The largest possible values ...

The average of the values of the class limits for a given class. A class mark is also called a midvalue or central value (Kenney and Keeping 1962, p. 14), and is commonly ...

A method of determining coefficients alpha_l in an expansion y(x)=y_0(x)+sum_(l=1)^qalpha_ly_l(x) so as to nullify the values of an ordinary differential equation L[y(x)]=0 ...

A variable that may assume complex values.

Two bits or half a nibble. Since a crumb encodes values from 0 to 2^2-1=3, it can conveniently be represented using single quaternary digit. However, the term "crumb" is ...

A wavelet used for filtering signals. Daubechies (1988, p. 980) has tabulated the numerical values up to order p=10.

Given a real number x, find the powers of a base b that will shift the digits of x a number of places n to the left. This is equivalent to solving b^x=b^nx (1) or x=n+log_bx. ...

The disorder number of a simple connected graph on n vertices is defined as the maximum length of a walk along the edges of the graph taken over all ordering of its vertices ...
