  2. Geometric algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_algebra

    PGA allows projection, meet, and angle formulas to be derived from (,,) - with a very minor extension to the algebra it is also possible to derive distances and joins. PGA is a widely used system that combines geometric algebra with homogeneous representations in geometry, but there exist several other such systems.

  3. Change of variables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Change_of_variables

    In mathematics, a change of variables is a basic technique used to simplify problems in which the original variables are replaced with functions of other variables. The intent is that when expressed in new variables, the problem may become simpler, or equivalent to a better understood problem.

  4. Generating function transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generating_function...

    The first integral formula corresponds to the Laplace transform (or sometimes the formal Laplace–Borel transformation) of generating functions, denoted by [] (), defined in. [7] Other integral representations for the gamma function in the second of the previous formulas can of course also be used to construct similar integral transformations ...

  5. Superformula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superformula

    The superformula is a generalization of the superellipse and was proposed by Johan Gielis in 2003. [1] Gielis suggested that the formula can be used to describe many complex shapes and curves that are found in nature.

  6. Change of variables (PDE) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Change_of_variables_(PDE)

    Often, theory can establish the existence of a change of variables, although the formula itself cannot be explicitly stated. For an integrable Hamiltonian system of dimension n {\displaystyle n} , with x ˙ i = ∂ H / ∂ p j {\displaystyle {\dot {x}}_{i}=\partial H/\partial p_{j}} and p ˙ j = − ∂ H / ∂ x j {\displaystyle {\dot {p}}_{j ...

  7. Baker–Campbell–Hausdorff formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baker–Campbell...

    For many purposes, it is only necessary to know that an expansion for in terms of iterated commutators of and exists; the exact coefficients are often irrelevant. (See, for example, the discussion of the relationship between Lie group and Lie algebra homomorphisms in Section 5.2 of Hall's book, [2] where the precise coefficients play no role in the argument.)

  8. Stieltjes transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stieltjes_transformation

    In mathematics, the Stieltjes transformation S ρ (z) of a measure of density ρ on a real interval I is the function of the complex variable z defined outside I by the formula S ρ ( z ) = ∫ I ρ ( t ) d t t − z , z ∈ C ∖ I . {\displaystyle S_{\rho }(z)=\int _{I}{\frac {\rho (t)\,dt}{t-z}},\qquad z\in \mathbb {C} \setminus I.}

  9. Woodward–Hoffmann rules - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woodward–Hoffmann_rules

    Thermolysis converts 1 to (E,E) geometric isomer 2, but 3 to (E,Z) isomer 4.. The Woodward–Hoffmann rules (or the pericyclic selection rules) [1] are a set of rules devised by Robert Burns Woodward and Roald Hoffmann to rationalize or predict certain aspects of the stereochemistry and activation energy of pericyclic reactions, an important class of reactions in organic chemistry.
