The havercosine, also called the haversed cosine, is a little-used trigonometric function defined by havercosz = vercosz (1) = 1/2(1+cosz), (2) where vercosz is the vercosine ...

The hemisphere function is defined as H(x,y)={sqrt(a-x^2-y^2) for sqrt(x^2+y^2)<=a; 0 for sqrt(x^2+y^2)>a. (1) Watson (1966) defines a hemispherical function as a function S ...

The Heronian mean of two numbers a and b is defined as HM(a,b) = 1/3(2A+G) (1) = 1/3(a+sqrt(ab)+b), (2) where A is the arithmetic mean and G the geometric mean. It arises in ...

The Hilbert-Schmidt norm of a matrix A is a matrix norm defined by ||A||_(HS)=sqrt(sum_(i,j)a_(ij)^2).

The sequence defined by H(0)=0 and H(n)=n-H(H(H(n-1))). The first few terms are 1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 6, 7, 7, 8, 9, 10, 10, 11, 12, 13, 13, 14, ... (OEIS A005374).

A d-hyperoctant is one of the 2^d regions of space defined by the 2^d possible combinations of signs (+/-,+/-,...,+/-). The 2-hyperoctant is known as a quadrant and the ...

The identric mean is defined by I(a,b)=1/e((b^b)/(a^a))^(1/(b-a)) for a>0, b>0, and a!=b. The identric mean has been investigated intensively and many remarkable inequalities ...

A partial differential equation whose solution does not depend continuously on its parameters (including but not limited to boundary conditions) is said to be ill-posed.

If f:D->Y is a map (a.k.a. function, transformation, etc.) over a domain D, then the image of f, also called the range of D under f, is defined as the set of all values that ...

The imaginary number i=sqrt(-1), i.e., the square root of -1. The imaginary unit is denoted and commonly referred to as "i." Although there are two possible square roots of ...
