Since martingales can be used to model the wealth ... |

Kenadsa longwave transmitter, among the most powerful broadcasting transmitters in the world, uses an antenna array... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum%20mass | In astronomy, minimum mass is the lower-bound calculated mass of observed objects such as planets, stars and binary systems, nebulae, and black holes.
Minimum mass is a widely cited statistic for extrasolar planets detected by the radial velocity method or Doppler spectroscopy, and is determined using the binary mass ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear%20electronics | Nuclear electronics is a subfield of electronics concerned with the design and use of high-speed electronic systems for nuclear physics and elementary particle physics research, and for industrial and medical use.
Essential elements of such systems include fast detectors for charged particles, discriminators for separ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse-height%20analyzer | A pulse-height analyzer (PHA) is an instrument that accepts electronic pulses of varying heights from particle and event detectors, digitizes the pulse heights, and saves the number of pulses of each height in registers or channels, thus recording a pulse-height spectrum or pulse-height distribution used for later puls... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalized%20semi-infinite%20programming | In mathematics, a semi-infinite programming (SIP) problem is an optimization problem with a finite number of variables and an infinite number of constraints. The constraints are typically parameterized. In a generalized semi-infinite programming (GSIP) problem, the feasible set of the parameters depends on the variable... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semi-infinite%20programming | In optimization theory, semi-infinite programming (SIP) is an optimization problem with a finite number of variables and an infinite number of constraints, or an infinite number of variables and a finite number of constraints. In the former case the constraints are typically parameterized.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wagner%20graph | In the mathematical field of graph theory, the Wagner graph is a 3-regular graph with 8 vertices and 12 edges. It is the 8-vertex Möbius ladder graph.
Properties
As a Möbius ladder, the Wagner graph is nonplanar but has crossing number one, making it an apex graph. It can be embedded without crossings on a torus or pr... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Headspace%20technology | Headspace technology is a technique developed in the 1980s to elucidate the odor compounds present in the air surrounding various objects. Usually the objects of interest are odoriferous objects such as plants, flowers and foods. Similar techniques are also used to analyze the interesting scents of locations and envir... |
