https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HSH2D | Hematopoietic SH2 Domain Containing (HSH2D) protein is a protein encoded by the hematopoietic SH2 domain containing (HSH2D) gene.
Gene
HSH2D is located on chromosome 19 at 19p13.11. Common aliases of the gene include HSH2 (Hematopoietic SH2 Protein) and ALX (Adaptor in Lymphocytes of Unknown Function X). The mRNA enc... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sierpi%C5%84ski%27s%20constant | Sierpiński's constant is a mathematical constant usually denoted as K. One way of defining it is as the following limit:
where r2(k) is a number of representations of k as a sum of the form a2 + b2 for integer a and b.
It can be given in closed form as:
where is Gauss's constant and is the Euler-Mascheroni constan... |

It is a network of local online classifieds in Spain and all Latin America, similar to Craigslist in the US. Segundamano has some 40 years of history, from its origins as a paper weekly magazine in Spain to its current local... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational%20cybernetics | Computational cybernetics is the integration of cybernetics and computational intelligence techniques. Though the term Cybernetics entered the technical lexicon in the 1940s and 1950s, it was first used informally as a popular noun in the 1960s, when it became associated with computers, robotics, Artificial Intelligenc... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deformation%20%28physics%29 | In physics and continuum mechanics, deformation is the change in the shape or size of an object. It has dimension of length with SI unit of metre (m). It is quantified as the residual displacement of particles in a non-rigid body, from an configuration to a configuration, excluding the body's average translation and ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular-weight%20size%20marker | A molecular-weight size marker, also referred to as a protein ladder, DNA ladder, or RNA ladder, is a set of standards that are used to identify the approximate size of a molecule run on a gel during electrophoresis, using the principle that molecular weight is inversely proportional to migration rate through a gel mat... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-threshold%20CMOS | Multi-threshold CMOS (MTCMOS) is a variation of CMOS chip technology which has transistors with multiple threshold voltages (Vth) in order to optimize delay or power. The Vth of a MOSFET is the gate voltage where an inversion layer forms at the interface between the insulating layer (oxide) and the substrate (body) of ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolza%20surface | In mathematics, the Bolza surface, alternatively, complex algebraic Bolza curve (introduced by ), is a compact Riemann surface of genus with the highest possible order of the conformal automorphism group in this genus, namely of order 48 (the general linear group of matrices over the finite field ). The full automor... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weil%27s%20conjecture%20on%20Tamagawa%20numbers | In mathematics, the Weil conjecture on Tamagawa numbers is the statement that the Tamagawa number of a simply connected simple algebraic group defined over a number field is 1. In this case, simply connected means "not having a proper algebraic covering" in the algebraic group theory sense, which is not always the top... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key%20%28music%29 | In music theory, the key of a piece is the group of pitches, or scale, that forms the basis of a musical composition in Western classical music, art music, and pop music.
A particular key features a tonic note and its corresponding chords, also called a tonic or tonic chord, which provides a subjective sense of arriva... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matroid%20polytope | In mathematics, a matroid polytope, also called a matroid basis polytope (or basis matroid polytope) to distinguish it from other polytopes derived from a matroid, is a polytope constructed via the bases of a matroid. Given a matroid , the matroid polytope is the convex hull of the indicator vectors of the bases of .
