Let A denote an R-algebra, so that A is a vector space over R and A×A->A (1) (x,y)|->x·y. (2) Then A is said to be alternative if, for all x,y in A, (x·y)·y=x·(y·y) (3) ...

The term used in propositional calculus for the NAND connective. The notation A|B is used for this connective, a most unfortunate choice in light of modern usage of A|B or ...

The alternative hypothesis is the hypothesis used in hypothesis testing that is contrary to the null hypothesis. It is usually taken to be that the observations are the ...

A category of link encompassing both alternating knots and torus knots.

The plane through an edge of a trihedron drawn perpendicularly to the opposite face. The term was first used by J. Neuberg (Altshiller-Court 1979, p. 298).

An expression is said to be ambiguous (or poorly defined) if its definition does not assign it a unique interpretation or value. An expression which is not ambiguous is said ...

An impossible hexnut modeled after the impossible torus. The figure above shows three impossible figures: the ambihelical hexnut in the lower left-hand corner, tribox in the ...

For every ergodic flow on a nonatomic probability space, there is a measurable set intersecting almost every orbit in a discrete set.

An object is amphichiral (also called reflexible) if it is superposable with its mirror image (i.e., its image in a plane mirror).

The term "amplitude" is used to refer to the magnitude of an oscillation, so the amplitude of the sinusoid y=Asin(omegat) is |A|, where |A| is the absolute value of A. The ...
