In probability theory and statistics, the multivariate normal distribution, multivariate Gaussian distribution, or joint normal distribution is a generalization...

In mathematics, function composition is an operation  ∘  that takes two functions f and g, and produces a function h = g  ∘  f such that h(x) = g(f(x))...

Cryptographic primitives are well-established, low-level cryptographic algorithms that are frequently used to build cryptographic protocols for computer...

In mathematics, differential topology is the field dealing with the topological properties and smooth properties of smooth manifolds. In this sense differential...

In mathematics, a presentation is one method of specifying a group. A presentation of a group G comprises a set S of generators—so that every element of...

In mathematics, the differential geometry of surfaces deals with the differential geometry of smooth surfaces with various additional structures, most...

English number words include numerals and various words derived from them, as well as a large number of words borrowed from other languages. Cardinal numbers...

In numerical analysis, the order of convergence and the rate of convergence of a convergent sequence are quantities that represent how quickly the sequence...

In mathematics, particularly in functional analysis and topology, closed graph is a property of functions. A function f : X → Y between topological spaces...

In mathematics, an iterated function is a function that is obtained by composing another function with itself two or several times. The process of repeatedly...

Ennio De Giorgi (8 February 1928 – 25 October 1996) was an Italian mathematician who worked on partial differential equations and the foundations of mathematics...

In statistics, best linear unbiased prediction (BLUP) is used in linear mixed models for the estimation of random effects. BLUP was derived by Charles...

Uniform convergence in probability is a form of convergence in probability in statistical asymptotic theory and probability theory. It means that, under...

In mathematics, a functional square root (sometimes called a half iterate) is a square root of a function with respect to the operation of function composition...

In mathematics, the binary icosahedral group 2I or ⟨2,3,5⟩ is a certain nonabelian group of order 120. It is an extension of the icosahedral group I or...

In probability, a discrete-time Markov chain (DTMC) is a sequence of random variables, known as a stochastic process, in which the value of the next variable...

In algebraic geometry, the normal cone of a subscheme of a scheme is a scheme analogous to the normal bundle or tubular neighborhood in differential geometry...

The Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of Germany bestows the Sofia Kovalevskaya Award every two years. Sofia Kovalevskaya (1850–1891) was the first major...

Willem Egbert (Wim) Saris (born 8 July 1943) is a Dutch sociologist and Emeritus Professor of Statistics and Methodology, especially known for his work...

In set theory and in the context of a large cardinal property, a subset, S, of D is homogeneous for a function f : [ D ] n → λ {\displaystyle f:[D]^{n}\to...
