wiki_17657_chunk_0 | Global network positioning | Global network positioning is a coordinates-based mechanism in a peer-to-peer network architecture which predicts Internet network distance (i.e. round-trip propagation and transmission delay). The mechanism is based on absolute coordinates computed from modeling the Internet as a geometric space. Since end hosts maint... | wikipedia |
wiki_3094_chunk_1 | Value distribution theory of holomorphic functions | In the case of one variable the term Nevanlinna theory, after Rolf Nevanlinna, is also common. The now-classical theory received renewed interest, when Paul Vojta suggested some analogies with the problem of integral solutions to Diophantine equations. These turned out to involve some close parallels, and to lead to ... | wikipedia |

A deep reinforcement learning system has been used to control a tokomak-based reactor. The AI was able to manipulate the magnetic coils to manage the plasma. The system was able to continuously adjust the system to maintain appropriate behavior (more complex than step-based systems). In 2014, Google be... | wikipedia |

wiki_8675_chunk_53 | Mathematics of general relativity | Some modern techniques in analysing spacetimes rely heavily on using spacetime symmetries, which are infinitesimally generated by vector fields (usually defined locally) on a spacetime that preserve some feature of the spacetime. The most common type of such symmetry vector fields include Killing vector fields (which p... | wikipedia |
