The Mercator series, also called the Newton-Mercator series (Havil 2003, p. 33), is the Taylor series for the natural logarithm ln(1+x) = sum_(k=1)^(infty)((-1)^(k+1))/kx^k ...

A merit function, also known as a figure-of-merit function, is a function that measures the agreement between data and the fitting model for a particular choice of the ...

A meromorphic function is a single-valued function that is analytic in all but possibly a discrete subset of its domain, and at those singularities it must go to infinity ...

The metabiaugmented dodecahedron is a convex equilateral solid that is Johnson solid J_(60). The unit metabiaugmented dodecahedron has volume V=1/6(25+11sqrt(5)) (1) and Dehn ...

The metabiaugmented hexagonal prism is a convex equilateral solid that is Johnson solid J_(56). The metabiaugmented hexagonal prism has volume V=1/6(2sqrt(2)+9sqrt(3)) (1) ...

The metabiaugmented truncated dodecahedron is a convex equilateral solid that is Johnson solid J_(70). The unit metabiaugmented truncated dodecahedron has volume ...

The metabigyrate rhombicosidodecahedron is a convex equilateral solid obtained by rotating two of the pentagonal cupolas of a small rhombicosidodecahedron located in the ...

The metagyrate diminished rhombicosidodecahedron is a convex equilateral solid that is Johnson solid J_(78). The unit metagyrate diminished rhombicosidodecahedron has volume ...

An algorithm for finding roots which retains that prior estimate for which the function value has opposite sign from the function value at the current best estimate of the ...

A nonnegative function g(x,y) describing the "distance" between neighboring points for a given set. A metric satisfies the triangle inequality g(x,y)+g(y,z)>=g(x,z) (1) and ...
