A conjecture concerning primes.

A type of statistic which can be useful for determining asymmetry and tailedness of a population.

The orthogonal decomposition of a matrix into lower trapezoidal matrices.

A nonlinear deconvolution technique used in deconvolving images from the Hubble Space Telescope before corrective optics were installed.

Quantifies deviation from translational invariance by describing the distribution of gaps within a set at multiple scales. The more lacunar a set, the more heterogeneous the ...

U_n(f)=int_a^bf(x)K_n(x)dx, where {K_n(x)} is a sequence of continuous functions.

S_n=sum_(i)eta_imu(E_i), where mu(E_i) is the measure of the set E_i of points on the x-axis for which f(x) approx eta_i.

Also known as the alternating series test. Given a series sum_(n=1)^infty(-1)^(n+1)a_n with a_n>0, if a_n is monotonic decreasing as n->infty and lim_(n->infty)a_n=0, then ...

A distribution with a high peak so that the kurtosis excess satisfies gamma_2>0.

n sets of s trials each, with the probability of success p constant in each set. var(x/n)=spq+s(s-1)sigma_p^2, where sigma_p^2 is the variance of p_i.
