https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical%20biconditional | In logic and mathematics, the logical biconditional, also known as material biconditional or equivalence or biimplication or bientailment, is the logical connective used to conjoin two statements and to form the statement " if and only if " (often abbreviated as " iff "), where is known as the antecedent, and the c... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncation | In mathematics and computer science, truncation is limiting the number of digits right of the decimal point.
Truncation and floor function
Truncation of positive real numbers can be done using the floor function. Given a number to be truncated and , the number of elements to be kept behind the decimal point, the tr... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propositional%20function | In propositional calculus, a propositional function or a predicate is a sentence expressed in a way that would assume the value of true or false, except that within the sentence there is a variable (x) that is not defined or specified (thus being a free variable), which leaves the statement undetermined. The sentence m... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta%20operator | In mathematics, a delta operator is a shift-equivariant linear operator on the vector space of polynomials in a variable over a field that reduces degrees by one.
To say that is shift-equivariant means that if , then
In other words, if is a "shift" of , then is also a shift of , and has the same "shifting vecto... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monge%20array | In mathematics applied to computer science, Monge arrays, or Monge matrices, are mathematical objects named for their discoverer, the French mathematician Gaspard Monge.
An m-by-n matrix is said to be a Monge array if, for all such that
one obtains
So for any two rows and two columns of a Monge array (a 2 × 2 sub-m... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractional%20calculus | Fractional calculus is a branch of mathematical analysis that studies the several different possibilities of defining real number powers or complex number powers of the differentiation operator
and of the integration operator
and developing a calculus for such operators generalizing the classical one.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplicative%20inverse | In mathematics, a multiplicative inverse or reciprocal for a number x, denoted by 1/x or x−1, is a number which when multiplied by x yields the multiplicative identity, 1. The multiplicative inverse of a fraction a/b is b/a. For the multiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number. For example, the recip... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falling%20and%20rising%20factorials | In mathematics, the falling factorial (sometimes called the descending factorial, falling sequential product, or lower factorial) is defined as the polynomial
The rising factorial (sometimes called the Pochhammer function, Pochhammer polynomial, ascending factorial, rising sequential product, or upper factorial) is de... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorentz%20group | In physics and mathematics, the Lorentz group is the group of all Lorentz transformations of Minkowski spacetime, the classical and quantum setting for all (non-gravitational) physical phenomena. The Lorentz group is named for the Dutch physicist Hendrik Lorentz.
For example, the following laws, equations, and theorie... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fock%20space | The Fock space is an algebraic construction used in quantum mechanics to construct the quantum states space of a variable or unknown number of identical particles from a single particle Hilbert space . It is named after V. A. Fock who first introduced it in his 1932 paper "Konfigurationsraum und zweite Quantelung" ("Co... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seismic%20hazard | A seismic hazard is the probability that an earthquake will occur in a given geographic area, within a given window of time, and with ground motion intensity exceeding a given threshold. With a hazard thus estimated, risk can be assessed and included in such areas as building codes for standard buildings, designing lar... |
