A point x_0 is said to be a periodic point of a function f of period n if f^n(x_0)=x_0, where f^0(x)=x and f^n(x) is defined recursively by f^n(x)=f(f^(n-1)(x)).

D_P(x)=lim_(epsilon->0)(lnmu(B_epsilon(x)))/(lnepsilon), where B_epsilon(x) is an n-dimensional ball of radius epsilon centered at x and mu is the probability measure.

The numbers of positive definite n×n matrices of given types are summarized in the following table. For example, the three positive eigenvalues 2×2 (0,1)-matrices are [1 0; 0 ...

Let A be a C^*-algebra, then a linear functional f on A is said to be positive if it is a positive map, that is f(a)>=0 for all a in A_+. Every positive linear functional is ...

Let f:R->R, then the positive part of f is the function f^+:R->R defined by f^+(x)=max(f(x),0) The positive part satisfies the identity f=f^+-f^-, where f^- is the negative ...

The system of partial differential equations u_t+uu_x+vu_y=U_t+UU_x+mu/rhou_(yy) u_x+v_y=0.

The problem of forecasting future values X_(t+tau) (tau>0) of a weakly stationary process {X_t} from the known values X_s (s<=t).

A primary ideal is an ideal I such that if ab in I, then either a in I or b^m in I for some m>0. Prime ideals are always primary. A primary decomposition expresses any ideal ...

5((x^5)_infty^5)/((x)_infty^6)=sum_(m=0)^inftyP(5m+4)x^m, where (x)_infty is a q-Pochhammer symbol and P(n) is the partition function P.

A type of cusp as illustrated above for the curve x^4+x^2y^2-2x^2y-xy^2+y^2=0.
