Wikipedia:Series expansion#0 | In mathematics, a series expansion is a technique that expresses a function as an infinite sum, or series, of simpler functions. It is a method for calculating a function that cannot be expressed by just elementary operators (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division). The resulting so-called series often can ... |
Wikipedia:Series multisection#0 | In mathematics, a multisection of a power series is a new power series composed of equally spaced terms extracted unaltered from the original series. Formally, if one is given a power series ∑ n = − ∞ ∞ a n ⋅ z n {\displaystyle \sum _{n=-\infty }^{\infty }a_{n}\cdot z^{n}} then its multisection is a power series of the... |
Wikipedia:Serre's theorem on a semisimple Lie algebra#0 | In mathematics, a Lie algebra is semisimple if it is a direct sum of simple Lie algebras. (A simple Lie algebra is a non-abelian Lie algebra without any non-zero proper ideals.) Throughout the article, unless otherwise stated, a Lie algebra is a finite-dimensional Lie algebra over a field of characteristic 0. For such ... |
Wikipedia:Sesquilinear form#0 | In mathematics, a sesquilinear form is a generalization of a bilinear form that, in turn, is a generalization of the concept of the dot product of Euclidean space. A bilinear form is linear in each of its arguments, but a sesquilinear form allows one of the arguments to be "twisted" in a semilinear manner, thus the nam... |
Wikipedia:Set function#0 | In mathematics, especially measure theory, a set function is a function whose domain is a family of subsets of some given set and that (usually) takes its values in the extended real number line R ∪ { ± ∞ } , {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} \cup \{\pm \infty \},} which consists of the real numbers R {\displaystyle \mathbb {... |
Wikipedia:Setoid#0 | In mathematics, a setoid (X, ~) is a set (or type) X equipped with an equivalence relation ~. A setoid may also be called E-set, Bishop set, or extensional set. Setoids are studied especially in proof theory and in type-theoretic foundations of mathematics. Often in mathematics, when one defines an equivalence relation... |
