The superdiagonal of a square matrix is the set of elements directly above the elements comprising the diagonal. For example, in the following matrix, the diagonal elements ...

A pair (M,omega), where M is a manifold and omega is a symplectic form on M. The phase space R^(2n)=R^n×R^n is a symplectic manifold. Near every point on a symplectic ...

The set of all points x that can be put into one-to-one correspondence with sets of essentially distinct values of four homogeneous coordinates x_0:x_1:x_2:x_3, not all ...

A transversal design TD_lambda(k,n) of order n, block size k, and index lambda is a triple (V, G, B) such that 1. V is a set of kn elements, 2. G is a partition of V into k ...

A transformation x^'=Ax is unimodular if the determinant of the matrix A satisfies det(A)=+/-1. A necessary and sufficient condition that a linear transformation transform a ...

The set of n quantities v_j are components of an n-dimensional vector v iff, under rotation, v_i^'=a_(ij)v_j (1) for i=1, 2, ..., n. The direction cosines between x_i^' and ...

A set of identities involving n-dimensional visible lattice points was discovered by Campbell (1994). Examples include product_((a,b)=1; ...

A compact set W_infty with area mu(W_infty)=8/9(24)/(25)(48)/(49)...=pi/4 created by punching a square hole of length 1/3 in the center of a square. In each of the eight ...

The singleton set {0}, with respect to the trivial group structure defined by the addition 0+0=0. The element 0 is the additive identity element of the group, and also the ...

The constant polynomial P(x)=0 whose coefficients are all equal to 0. The corresponding polynomial function is the constant function with value 0, also called the zero map. ...
