Wikipedia:Effective domain#0 | In convex analysis, a branch of mathematics, the effective domain extends of the domain of a function defined for functions that take values in the extended real number line [ − ∞ , ∞ ] = R ∪ { ± ∞ } . {\displaystyle [-\infty ,\infty ]=\mathbb {R} \cup \{\pm \infty \}.} In convex analysis and variational analysis, a po... |

He was awarded a Fields Medal at the Internation... |
Wikipedia:Egyptian Mathematical Leather Roll#0 | The Egyptian Mathematical Leather Roll (EMLR) is a 10 × 17 in (25 × 43 cm) leather roll purchased by Alexander Henry Rhind in 1858. It was sent to the British Museum in 1864, along with the Rhind Mathematical Papyrus, but it was not chemically softened and unrolled until 1927 (Scott, Hall 1927). The writing consists of... |
Wikipedia:Egyptian algebra#0 | In the history of mathematics, Egyptian algebra, as that term is used in this article, refers to algebra as it was developed and used in ancient Egypt. Ancient Egyptian mathematics as discussed here spans a time period ranging from c. 3000 BCE to c. 300 BCE. There are limited surviving examples of ancient Egyptian alge... |
Wikipedia:Egyptian fraction#0 | An Egyptian fraction is a finite sum of distinct unit fractions, such as 1 2 + 1 3 + 1 16 . {\displaystyle {\frac {1}{2}}+{\frac {1}{3}}+{\frac {1}{16}}.} That is, each fraction in the expression has a numerator equal to 1 and a denominator that is a positive integer, and all the denominators differ from each other. Th... |
Wikipedia:Egyptian geometry#0 | Egyptian geometry refers to geometry as it was developed and used in Ancient Egypt. Their geometry was a necessary outgrowth of surveying to preserve the layout and ownership of farmland, which was flooded annually by the Nile river. We only have a limited number of problems from ancient Egypt that concern geometry. Ge... |
Wikipedia:Egyptian numerals#0 | The system of ancient Egyptian numerals was used in Ancient Egypt from around 3000 BC until the early first millennium AD. It was a system of numeration based on multiples of ten, often rounded off to the higher power, written in hieroglyphs. The Egyptians had no concept of a positional notation such as the decimal sys... |
Wikipedia:Ehrenpreis's fundamental principle#0 | In mathematical analysis, Ehrenpreis's fundamental principle, introduced by Leon Ehrenpreis, states: Every solution of a system (in general, overdetermined) of homogeneous partial differential equations with constant coefficients can be represented as the integral with respect to an appropriate Radon measure over the c... |

His father was Amos de-Shalit. He completed his B.Sc. at the Hebrew University in 1975, and his Ph.D. at Princeton University i... |
Wikipedia:Eigengap#0 | In linear algebra, the eigengap of a linear operator is the difference between two successive eigenvalues, where eigenvalues are sorted in ascending order. The Davis–Kahan theorem, named after Chandler Davis and William Kahan, uses the eigengap to show how eigenspaces of an operator change under perturbation. In spectr... |
