Langford pairings are name... |

In the mathematical field of topology, a Gδ set is a subset of a topological space that is a countable intersection of open sets. The notation originated from the German nouns and .
Historically Gδ sets were also called inner limiting sets, but that terminology is not in use anymore.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DEC%20Hebrew | The DEC Hebrew character set is an 8-bit character set developed by Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) to support the Hebrew alphabet. It was derived from DEC's Multinational Character Set (MCS) by removing the existing definitions from code points 192 to 223 and 224 to 250 and replacing code points 251 to 256 by the ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Provitamin | A provitamin is a substance that may be converted within the body to a vitamin. The term previtamin is a synonym.
The term "provitamin" is used when it is desirable to label a substance with little or no vitamin activity, but which can be converted to an active form by normal metabolic processes.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SATA | SATA (Serial AT Attachment) is a computer bus interface that connects host bus adapters to mass storage devices such as hard disk drives, optical drives, and solid-state drives. Serial ATA succeeded the earlier Parallel ATA (PATA) standard to become the predominant interface for storage devices.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orgel%27s%20rules | Orgel's rules are a set of axioms attributed by Francis Crick to the evolutionary biologist Leslie Orgel.
Orgel's First Rule
"Whenever a spontaneous process is too slow or too inefficient a protein will evolve to speed it up or make it more efficient."
This "rule" comments on the fact that there are a great number of... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Countably%20barrelled%20space | In functional analysis, a topological vector space (TVS) is said to be countably barrelled if every weakly bounded countable union of equicontinuous subsets of its continuous dual space is again equicontinuous.
This property is a generalization of barrelled spaces.
Definition
A TVS X with continuous dual space is ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zenzizenzizenzic | Zenzizenzizenzic is an obsolete form of mathematical notation representing the eighth power of a number (that is, the zenzizenzizenzic of x is x8), dating from a time when powers were written out in words rather than as superscript numbers. This term was suggested by Robert Recorde, a 16th-century Welsh physician, math... |
