https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poincar%C3%A9%20lemma | In mathematics, the Poincaré lemma gives a sufficient condition for a closed differential form to be exact (while an exact form is necessarily closed). Precisely, it states that every closed p-form on an open ball in Rn is exact for p with . The lemma was introduced by Henri Poincaré in 1886.
Especially in calculus, t... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-scale%20calculus | In mathematics, time-scale calculus is a unification of the theory of difference equations with that of differential equations, unifying integral and differential calculus with the calculus of finite differences, offering a formalism for studying hybrid systems. It has applications in any field that requires simultane... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalized%20permutation%20matrix | In mathematics, a generalized permutation matrix (or monomial matrix) is a matrix with the same nonzero pattern as a permutation matrix, i.e. there is exactly one nonzero entry in each row and each column. Unlike a permutation matrix, where the nonzero entry must be 1, in a generalized permutation matrix the nonzero en... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plessey%20System%20250 | Plessey System 250, also known as PP250, was the first operational computer to implement capability-based addressing, to check and balance the computation as a pure Church–Turing machine. Plessey built the systems for a British Army message routing project.
Description
A Church–Turing machine is a digital computer th... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logogen%20model | The logogen model of 1969 is a model of speech recognition that uses units called "logogens" to explain how humans comprehend spoken or written words. Logogens are a vast number of specialized recognition units, each able to recognize one specific word. This model provides for the effects of context on word recogniti... |
