Chain equivalences give an equivalence relation on the space of chain homomorphisms. Two chain complexes are chain equivalent if there are chain maps phi:C_*->D_* and ...

Also called a chain map. Given two chain complexes C_* and D_*, a chain homomorphism is given by homomorphisms alpha_i:C_i->D_i such that alpha degreespartial_C=partial_D ...

Suppose alpha:C_*->D_* and beta:C_*->D_* are two chain homomorphisms. Then a chain homotopy is given by a sequence of maps delta_p:C_p->D_(p-1) such that partial_D ...

Chained arrow notation is a notation which generalizes the Knuth up-arrow notation and is defined as a^...^b_()_(c)=a->b->c.

A sequence of circles which closes (such as a Steiner chain or the circles inscribed in the arbelos) is called a chain.

A change of basis is the transformation of coordinate-based vector and operator representations in a given vector space from one vector basis representation to another.

A change of coordinates matrix, also called a transition matrix, specifies the transformation from one vector basis to another under a change of basis. For example, if ...

The partial differential equation u_(xx)+(y^2)/(1-(y^2)/(c^2))u_(yy)+yu_y=0.

The equation f(x_n|x_s)=int_(-infty)^inftyf(x_n|x_r)f(x_r|x_s)dx_r which gives the transitional densities of a Markov sequence. Here, n>r>s are any integers (Papoulis 1984, ...

Characteristic classes are cohomology classes in the base space of a vector bundle, defined through obstruction theory, which are (perhaps partial) obstructions to the ...
