https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topological%20tensor%20product | In mathematics, there are usually many different ways to construct a topological tensor product of two topological vector spaces. For Hilbert spaces or nuclear spaces there is a simple well-behaved theory of tensor products (see Tensor product of Hilbert spaces), but for general Banach spaces or locally convex topologi... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational%20finance | Computational finance is a branch of applied computer science that deals with problems of practical interest in finance.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castelnuovo%27s%20contraction%20theorem | In mathematics, Castelnuovo's contraction theorem is used in the classification theory of algebraic surfaces to construct the minimal model of a given smooth algebraic surface.
More precisely, let be a smooth projective surface over and a (−1)-curve on (which means a smooth rational curve of self-intersection num... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blichfeldt%27s%20theorem | Blichfeldt's theorem is a mathematical theorem in the geometry of numbers, stating that whenever a bounded set in the Euclidean plane has area , it can be translated so that it includes at least points of the integer lattice. Equivalently, every bounded set of area contains a set of points whose coordinates all diff... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alidade | An alidade () (archaic forms include alhidade, alhidad, alidad) or a turning board is a device that allows one to sight a distant object and use the line of sight to perform a task. This task can be, for example, to triangulate a scale map on site using a plane table drawing of intersecting lines in the direction of th... |
