  2. Blum–Shub–Smale machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blum–Shub–Smale_machine

    It is closely related to the Real RAM model. BSS machines are more powerful than Turing machines, because the latter are by definition restricted to a finite set of symbols. [2] A Turing machine can represent a countable set (such as the rational numbers) by strings of symbols, but this does not extend to the uncountable real numbers.

  3. Stephen Smale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Smale

    Stephen Smale (born July 15, 1930) is an American mathematician, known for his research in topology, dynamical systems and mathematical economics.He was awarded the Fields Medal in 1966 [2] and spent more than three decades on the mathematics faculty of the University of California, Berkeley (1960–1961 and 1964–1995), where he currently is Professor Emeritus, with research interests in ...

  4. Mean value problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_value_problem

    In mathematics, the mean value problem was posed by Stephen Smale in 1981. [1] This problem is still open in full generality. The problem asks: For a given complex polynomial of degree [2] A and a complex number , is there a critical point of (i.e. ′ =) such that

  5. Axiom A - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axiom_A

    Axiom A diffeomorphisms generalize Morse–Smale systems, which satisfy further restrictions (finitely many periodic points and transversality of stable and unstable submanifolds). Smale horseshoe map is an axiom A diffeomorphism with infinitely many periodic points and positive topological entropy .

  6. Horseshoe map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horseshoe_map

    In the mathematics of chaos theory, a horseshoe map is any member of a class of chaotic maps of the square into itself. It is a core example in the study of dynamical systems. The map was introduced by Stephen Smale while studying the behavior of the orbits of the van der Pol oscillator. The action of the map is defined geometrically by ...

  7. Morse–Smale system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morse–Smale_system

    In dynamical systems theory, an area of pure mathematics, a Morse–Smale system is a smooth dynamical system whose non-wandering set consists of finitely many hyperbolic equilibrium points and hyperbolic periodic orbits and satisfying a transversality condition on the stable and unstable manifolds.

  8. 3C-model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3C-model

    Initially, the 3C-model was published as the "compensatory model of work motivation and volition". [9] The original title referred to one of the central assumptions of the model, namely that volition compensates for insufficient motivation. Because of the potential confusion with "worker compensation", however, the name was changed to "3C-model."

  9. Motivation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motivation

    Motivation affects students' participation in classroom activities and academic success. Motivation plays a key role in education since it affects the students' engagement with the studied topic and shapes their learning experience and academic success. Motivated students are more likely to participate in classroom activities and persevere ...
