Instanton
In one-dimensional field theory or quantum mechanics one defines as "instanton" a field configuration which is a solution of the classical (Newton-like) equation of motion with Euclidean time and finite Euclidean action. In the context of soliton theory the corresponding solution is known as a kink. In view of their an...

In the limit of infinite period these periodic instantons – frequently known as "bounces", "bubbles" or the like – reduce to instantons. The stability of these pseudoclassical configurations can be investigated by expanding the Lagrangian defining the theory around the pseudoparticle configuration and then investigatin...

Gray langur
When langurs mate, they are sometimes disrupted by other group members. Females have even been recorded mounting other females.The gestation period of gray langur lasts around 200 days, at least at Jodhpur, India. In some areas, reproduction is year-around.

Gray langur
Year-round reproduction appears to occur in populations that capitalize on human-made foods. Other populations have seasonal reproduction.Infanticide is common among gray langurs. Most infanticidal langurs are males that have recently immigrated to a group and driven out the prior male.

These males only kill infants that are not their own. Infanticide is more commonly reported in one-male groups, perhaps because one male monopolizing matings drives the evolution of this trait.

In operator theory, a multiplication operator is an operator Tf defined on some vector space of functions and whose value at a function φ is given by multiplication by a fixed function f. That is, for all φ in the domain of Tf, and all x in the domain of φ (which is the same as the domain of f). This type of operator i...

Spectral set
In operator theory, a set X ⊆ C {\displaystyle X\subseteq \mathbb {C} } is said to be a spectral set for a (possibly unbounded) linear operator T {\displaystyle T} on a Banach space if the spectrum of T {\displaystyle T} is in X {\displaystyle X} and von-Neumann's inequality holds for T {\displaystyle T} on X {\display...

Douglas' lemma
In operator theory, an area of mathematics, Douglas' lemma relates factorization, range inclusion, and majorization of Hilbert space operators. It is generally attributed to Ronald G. Douglas, although Douglas acknowledges that aspects of the result may already have been known. The statement of the result is as follows...

Scalar transformation
In operator theory, particularly the study of PDEs, operators are particularly easy to understand and PDEs easy to solve if the operator is diagonal with respect to the basis with which one is working; this corresponds to a separable partial differential equation. Therefore, a key technique to understanding operators i...

Gelfand–Mazur theorem
In operator theory, the Gelfand–Mazur theorem is a theorem named after Israel Gelfand and Stanisław Mazur which states that a Banach algebra with unit over the complex numbers in which every nonzero element is invertible is isometrically isomorphic to the complex numbers, i. e., the only complex Banach algebra that is ...

Gelfand–Mazur theorem
So a = λ · 1. This gives an isomorphism from A to C. The theorem can be strengthened to the claim that there are (up to isomorphism) exactly three real Banach division algebras: the field of reals R, the field of complex numbers C, and the division algebra of quaternions H. This result was proved first by Stanisław Maz...

Cryoextraction (medicine)
In ophthalmology, cryoextraction is a form of intracapsular cataract extraction in which a cryoextractor, a special type of cryoprobe, is used to freeze the crystalline lens and pull it intact from the eye. Dr. Charles Kelman is credited with pioneering this surgical method in 1962. It can also be used in the treatment...

Covenant Theology
Consequently, works are the necessary response to grace and not the precondition for it.

Stray light
In optical astronomy, stray light from sky glow can limit the ability to detect faint objects. In this sense stray light is light from other sources that is focused to the same place as the faint object. Stray light is a major issue in the design of a coronagraph, used for observing the Sun's corona.

Air mass (astronomy)
The Greenwood frequency and Fried parameter, both relevant for adaptive optics, depend on the air mass above them (or more specifically, on the zenith angle).

Apodization
In optical design jargon, an apodization function is used to purposely change the input intensity profile of an optical system, and it may be a complicated function to tailor the system to certain properties. Usually, it refers to a non-uniform illumination or transmission profile that approaches zero at the edges.
