A curve on a surface whose tangents are always in the direction of principal curvature. The equation of the lines of curvature can be written |g_(11) g_(12) g_(22); b_(11) ...

product_(i)dp_idq_i, where p_i and q_i are momenta and positions of particles.

Let F be a differential field with constant field K. For f in F, suppose that the equation g^'=f (i.e., g=intf) has a solution g in G, where G is an elementary extension of F ...

A function f(x) satisfies the Lipschitz condition of order beta at x=0 if |f(h)-f(0)|<=B|h|^beta for all |h|<epsilon, where B and beta are independent of h, beta>0, and alpha ...

A function f such that |f(x)-f(y)|<=C|x-y| for all x and y, where C is a constant independent of x and y, is called a Lipschitz function. For example, any function with a ...

int_0^inftye^(-ax)J_0(bx)dx=1/(sqrt(a^2+b^2)), where J_0(z) is the zeroth order Bessel function of the first kind.

Little-omega notation is the inverse of the Landau symbol o, i.e., f(n) in o(phi(n)) <==> phi(n) in omega(f(n)).

The name Lobachevsky's function is sometimes given to the function Lambda(theta)=1/2Cl_2(2theta), also denoted Pi(theta), where Cl_2(x) is Clausen's integral.

A local extremum, also called a relative extremum, is a local minimum or local maximum.

A local maximum, also called a relative maximum, is a maximum within some neighborhood that need not be (but may be) a global maximum.
