The symbol defined by c^(a/b) = c(c+b)(c+2b)...[c+(a-1)b] (1) = b^a(c/b)_a (2) = (b^aGamma(a+c/b))/(Gamma(c/b)), (3) where (a)_n is the Pochhammer symbol and Gamma(z) is the ...

The recurrence relation (n-1)A_(n+1)=(n^2-1)A_n+(n+1)A_(n-1)+4(-1)^n valid for n=4, 5, ... with A(2)=0 and A(3)=1 and which solves the married couples problem (Dörrie 1965, ...

A root-finding algorithm also called Bailey's method and Hutton's method. For a function of the form g(x)=x^d-r, Lambert's method gives an iteration function ...

The Lebesgue identity is the algebraic identity (Nagell 1951, pp. 194-195).

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 ...

The length is the longest dimension of an object.

A Lie groupoid over B is a groupoid G for which G and B are differentiable manifolds and alpha,beta and multiplication are differentiable maps. Furthermore, the derivatives ...

Let suma_k and sumb_k be two series with positive terms and suppose lim_(k->infty)(a_k)/(b_k)=rho. If rho is finite and rho>0, then the two series both converge or diverge.

Two curves phi and psi satisfying phi+psi=0 are said to be linearly dependent. Similarly, n curves phi_i, i=1, ..., n are said to be linearly dependent if sum_(i=1)^nphi_i=0.
