A volume element is the differential element dV whose volume integral over some range in a given coordinate system gives the volume of a solid, V=intintint_(G)dxdydz. (1) In ...

Let X_1, ..., X_N be a sequence of independent observations of a random variable X, and let the number of observations N itself be chosen at random. Then Wald's equation ...

A prime number is said to be weakly prime if changing a single digit to every other possible digit produces a composite number when performed on each digit. The first few ...

There are at least two theorems known as Weierstrass's theorem. The first states that the only hypercomplex number systems with commutative multiplication and addition are ...

A statistic w on the symmetric group S_n is called a weighted inversion statistic if there exists an upper triangular matrix W=(w_(ij)) such that ...

A tree to whose nodes and/or edges labels (usually number) are assigned. The word "weight" also has a more specific meaning when applied to trees, namely the weight of a tree ...

The Weingarten equations express the derivatives of the normal vector to a surface using derivatives of the position vector. Let x:U->R^3 be a regular patch, then the shape ...

On July 10, 2003, Eric Weisstein computed the numbers of n×n (0,1)-matrices all of whose eigenvalues are real and positive, obtaining counts for n=1, 2, ... of 1, 3, 25, 543, ...

The apodization function A(x)=1-(x^2)/(a^2). (1) Its full width at half maximum is sqrt(2)a. Its instrument function is I(k) = 2asqrt(2pi)(J_(3/2)(2pika))/((2pika)^(3/2)) (2) ...

An expression is called "well-defined" (or "unambiguous") if its definition assigns it a unique interpretation or value. Otherwise, the expression is said to not be ...
