An interval in which one endpoint is included but not the other. A half-closed interval is denoted [a,b) or (a,b] and is also called a half-open interval. The non-standard ...

A half-plane is a planar region consisting of all points on one side of an infinite straight line, and no points on the other side. If the points on the line are included, ...

A half-space is that portion of an n-dimensional space obtained by removing that part lying on one side of an (n-1)-dimensional hyperplane. For example, half a Euclidean ...

A rotation through 180 degrees (pi radians).

The second-order ordinary differential equation (1+x^2)^2y^('')+lambday=0 (Hille 1969, p. 357; Zwillinger 1997, p. 122).

A necessary and sufficient condition that there should exist at least one nondecreasing function alpha(t) such that mu_n=int_(-infty)^inftyt^ndalpha(t) for n=0, 1, 2, ..., ...

A basis for the real numbers R, considered as a vector space over the rationals Q, i.e., a set of real numbers {U_alpha} such that every real number beta has a unique ...

A linear combination of basis quaternions with integer coefficients.

Consider a one-dimensional Hamiltonian map of the form H(p,q)=1/2p^2+V(q), (1) which satisfies Hamilton's equations q^. = (partialH)/(partialp) (2) p^. = ...

A handlebody of type (n,k) is an n-dimensional manifold that is attained from the standard n-disk by attaching only k-D handles.
