Rotation of axes — is a form of Euclidean transformation in which the entire xy coordinate system is rotated in the counter clockwise direction with respect to the origin (0, 0) through a scalar quantity denoted by θ.With the exception of the degenerate cases, if a … Wikipedia
Balmer series — The Balmer series or Balmer lines in atomic physics, is the designation of one of a set of six different named series describing the spectral line emissions of the hydrogen atom.The Balmer series is calculated using the Balmer formula, an… … Wikipedia
Poynting vector — In physics, the Poynting vector can be thought of as representing the energy flux (in W/m2) of an electromagnetic field. It is named after its inventor John Henry Poynting. Oliver Heaviside independently co discovered the Poynting vector. In… … Wikipedia
Rayleigh quotient — In mathematics, for a given complex Hermitian matrix A and nonzero vector x, the Rayleigh quotient R(A, x) is defined as::{x^{*} A x over x^{*} x}For real matrices and vectors, the condition of being Hermitian reduces to that of being symmetric,… … Wikipedia
Brownian bridge — A Brownian bridge is a continuous time stochastic process whose probability distribution is the conditional probability distribution of a Wiener process B ( t ) (a mathematical model of Brownian motion) given the condition that B (0) = B (1) = 0 … Wikipedia
Gödel metric — The Gödel metric is an exact solution of the Einstein field equations in which the stress energy tensor contains two terms, the first representing the matter density of a homogeneous distribution of swirling dust particles, and the second… … Wikipedia
Binomial transform — In combinatorial mathematics the binomial transform is a sequence transformation (ie, a transform of a sequence) that computes its forward differences. It is closely related to the Euler transform, which is the result of applying the binomial… … Wikipedia
Wilks' lambda distribution — In statistics, Wilks lambda distribution (named for Samuel S. Wilks), is a probability distribution used in multivariate hypothesis testing, especially with regard to the likelihood ratio test. It is a generalization of the F distribution, and… … Wikipedia
