Generalizes the secant method of root finding by using quadratic 3-point interpolation q=(x_n-x_(n-1))/(x_(n-1)-x_(n-2)). (1) Then define A = ...

Multi-index notation is used to shorten expressions that contain many indices. Let x in R^n and write x=(x_1,...,x_n). A multi-index alpha is an n-tuple of integers alpha_j ...

A multidimensional polylogarithm is a generalization of the usual polylogarithm to L_(a_1,...,a_m)(z)=sum_(n_1>...>n_m>0)(z^(n_1))/(n_1^(a_1)...n_m^(a_m)) with positive ...

A measure for which the q-dimension D_q varies with q.

A multilinear form on a vector space V(F) over a field F is a map f:V(F)×...×V(F)->F (1) such that c·f(u_1,...,u_i,...,u_n)=f(u_1,...,c·u_i,...,u_n) (2) and ...

Possessing more than one mode. A set of values having a single unique mode is said to be unimodal, one with two modes is called bimodal, and one with three modes is called ...

An algebraic expression containing more than one term (cf., binomial). The term is also used to refer to a polynomial.

A multinomial series is generalization of the binomial series discovered by Johann Bernoulli and Leibniz. The multinomial series arises in a generalization of the binomial ...

The number k in the expression s(n)=kn for a multiperfect number is called its class.

A function for which several distinct functional values correspond (as a result of different continuations) to one and the same point (Knopp 1996, p. 94).
