Let a particle travel a distance s(t) as a function of time t (here, s can be thought of as the arc length of the curve traced out by the particle). The speed (the scalar ...

The approximation problem is a well known problem of functional analysis (Grothendieck 1955). It asks to determine whether every compact operator T from a Banach space X to a ...

There are two possible definitions: 1. Possessing similarity of form, 2. Continuous, one-to-one, in surjection, and having a continuous inverse. The most common meaning is ...

Let T be a linear operator on a separable Hilbert space. The spectrum sigma(T) of T is the set of lambda such that (T-lambdaI) is not invertible on all of the Hilbert space, ...

A Tychonoff plank is a topological space that is an example of a normal space which has a non-normal subset, thus showing that normality is not a hereditary property. Let ...

The set of all nonsingular affine transformations of a translation in space constitutes a group known as the affine group. The affine group contains the full linear group and ...

A dynamical system in which the phase space volume contracts along a trajectory. This means that the generalized divergence is less than zero, (partialf_i)/(partialx_i)<0, ...

Let D be a set of positive numbers containing 1, then the D-distance graph X(D) on a nonempty subset X of Euclidean space is the graph with vertex set X and edge set ...

On a compact oriented Finsler manifold without boundary, every cohomology class has a unique harmonic representation. The dimension of the space of all harmonic forms of ...

An outcome is a subset of a probability space. Experimental outcomes are not uniquely determined from the description of an experiment, and must be agreed upon to avoid ...
