In such a spacetime, a particularly important kind of coordinate chart is the Schwarzschild chart, a kind of polar spherical coordinate chart on a static and spherically symmetric spacetime, which is adapted... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catastrophe%20theory | In mathematics, catastrophe theory is a branch of bifurcation theory in the study of dynamical systems; it is also a particular special case of more general singularity theory in geometry.
Bifurcation theory studies and classifies phenomena characterized by sudden shifts in behavior arising from small changes in circu... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaining%20%28vector%20processing%29 | In computing, chaining is a technique used in computer architecture in which scalar and vector registers generate interim results which can be used immediately, without additional memory references which reduce computational speed.
The chaining technique was first used by Seymour Cray in the 80 MHz Cray 1 superco... |
