A singular point a for which f(z)(z-a)^n is not differentiable for any integer n>0.

An estimator is a rule that tells how to calculate an estimate based on the measurements contained in a sample. For example, the sample mean x^_ is an estimator for the ...

The bias of an estimator theta^~ is defined as B(theta^~)=<theta^~>-theta. (1) It is therefore true that theta^~-theta = (theta^~-<theta^~>)+(<theta^~>-theta) (2) = ...

A function which arises in the fractional integral of e^(at), given by E_t(nu,a) = (e^(at))/(Gamma(nu))int_0^tx^(nu-1)e^(-ax)dx (1) = (a^(-nu)e^(at)gamma(nu,at))/(Gamma(nu)), ...

A topology arising from a sheaf of continuous functions. It derives a natural topology from the projection operator. Etale spaces are examples of space that are not T2.

A three-dimensional shadow of a four-dimensional Klein bottle.

The paradox "This statement is false," stated in the fourth century BC. It is a sharper version of the Epimenides paradox, "All Cretans are liars...One of their own poets has ...

A Euclidean motion of R^n is an affine transformation whose linear part is an orthogonal transformation.

The straightedge and the compass. The name is due to the fact that connecting points with segments, prolonging segments and drawing circles with a given center and a given ...

A metric topology induced by the Euclidean metric. In the Euclidean topology of the n-dimensional space R^n, the open sets are the unions of n-balls. On the real line this ...
