https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F-coalgebra
In mathematics, specifically in category theory, an -coalgebra is a structure defined according to a functor , with specific properties as defined below. For both algebras and coalgebras, a functor is a convenient and general way of organizing a signature. This has applications in computer science: examples of coalgeb...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gelfond%27s%20constant
In mathematics, Gelfond's constant, named after Aleksandr Gelfond, is , that is, raised to the power . Like both and , this constant is a transcendental number. This was first established by Gelfond and may now be considered as an application of the Gelfond–Schneider theorem, noting that where is the imaginary uni...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simply%20typed%20lambda%20calculus
The simply typed lambda calculus (), a form of type theory, is a typed interpretation of the lambda calculus with only one type constructor () that builds function types. It is the canonical and simplest example of a typed lambda calculus. The simply typed lambda calculus was originally introduced by Alonzo Church in ...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolic%20dynamics
In mathematics, symbolic dynamics is the practice of modeling a topological or smooth dynamical system by a discrete space consisting of infinite sequences of abstract symbols, each of which corresponds to a state of the system, with the dynamics (evolution) given by the shift operator. Formally, a Markov partition is ...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subshift%20of%20finite%20type
In mathematics, subshifts of finite type are used to model dynamical systems, and in particular are the objects of study in symbolic dynamics and ergodic theory. They also describe the set of all possible sequences executed by a finite state machine. The most widely studied shift spaces are the subshifts of finite type...

Marcel Jules Edouard Golay (; May 3, 1902 – April 27, 1989) was a Swiss mathematician, physicist, and information theorist, who applied mathematics to real-world military and industrial problems. He was born in Neuchâtel, Switzerland. Career Golay studied electrical engineering at the Eidgenössische Technische Hochsch...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean%20plane%20isometry
In geometry, a Euclidean plane isometry is an isometry of the Euclidean plane, or more informally, a way of transforming the plane that preserves geometrical properties such as length. There are four types: translations, rotations, reflections, and glide reflections (see below under ). The set of Euclidean plane isome...

Sir David Roxbee Cox (15 July 1924 – 18 January 2022) was a British statistician and educator. His wide-ranging contributions to the field of statistics included introducing logistic regression, the proportional hazards model and the Cox process, a point process named after him. He was a professor of statistics at B...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-descriptive%20number
In mathematics, a self-descriptive number is an integer m that in a given base b is b digits long in which each digit d at position n (the most significant digit being at position 0 and the least significant at position b−1) counts how many instances of digit n are in m. Example For example, in base 10, the number 621...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frege%27s%20propositional%20calculus
In mathematical logic, Frege's propositional calculus was the first axiomatization of propositional calculus. It was invented by Gottlob Frege, who also invented predicate calculus, in 1879 as part of his second-order predicate calculus (although Charles Peirce was the first to use the term "second-order" and develope...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normed%20algebra
In mathematics, a normed algebra A is an algebra over a field which has a sub-multiplicative norm: Some authors require it to have a multiplicative identity 1 such that ║1║ = 1. See also Banach algebra Composition algebra Division algebra Gelfand–Mazur theorem Hurwitz's theorem (composition algebras) Externa...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pohlig%E2%80%93Hellman%20algorithm
In group theory, the Pohlig–Hellman algorithm, sometimes credited as the Silver–Pohlig–Hellman algorithm, is a special-purpose algorithm for computing discrete logarithms in a finite abelian group whose order is a smooth integer. The algorithm was introduced by Roland Silver, but first published by Stephen Pohlig and ...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subtended%20angle
In geometry, an angle is subtended by an arc, line segment or any other section of a curve when its two rays pass through the endpoints of that arc, line segment or curve section. Conversely, the arc, line segment or curve section confined within the rays of an angle is regarded as the corresponding subtension of that...
