As Gauss showed in 1812, the hyperbolic tangent can be written using a continued fraction as tanhx=x/(1+(x^2)/(3+(x^2)/(5+...))) (Wall 1948, p. 349; Olds 1963, p. 138).

Suppose that {f_n} is a sequence of measurable functions, that f_n->f pointwise almost everywhere as n->infty, and that |f_n|<=g for all n, where g is integrable. Then f is ...

For a group G, consider a subgroup H with elements h_i and an element x of G not in H, then xh_i for i=1, 2, ... constitute the left coset of the subgroup H with respect to x.

Let H be a subgroup of G. A subset T of elements of G is called a left transversal of H if T contains exactly one element of each left coset of H.

A wavelet used in multiresolution representation to analyze the information content of images. The wavelet is defined by ...

A letter is an element of an alphabet. A collection of letters forms a word.

Let t(m) denote the set of the phi(m) numbers less than and relatively prime to m, where phi(n) is the totient function. Then if S_m=sum_(t(m))1/t, (1) then {S_m=0 (mod m^2) ...

A limb of a tree at a vertex v is the union of one or more branches at v in the tree. v is then called the base of the limb.

A linear code over a finite field with q elements F_q is a linear subspace C subset F_q^n. The vectors forming the subspace are called codewords. When codewords are chosen ...

A member of the smallest algebraically closed subfield L of C which is closed under the exponentiation and logarithm operations.
