The dimensions h p,q of spaces of harmonic (p,q)-differential forms (equivalently, the cohomology, i.e., closed forms modulo exact forms) are conventionally arranged in a diamond shape called the Hodge diamond. These (p,q)-Betti numbers can be computed for complete intersections using a generating function described by Friedrich Hirzebruch.
One concept which is argued to support a hard determinism is the doctrine of dependent origination (pratītyasamutpāda) in the early Buddhist texts, which states that all phenomena (dharma) are necessarily caused by some other phenomenon, which it can be said to be dependent on, like links in a massive, never-ending chain; the basic principle ...
Jared Diamond was influential in the resurgence of environmental determinism due to the popularity of his book Guns, Germs, and Steel, which addresses the geographic origins of state formation prior to 1500 A.D. [26] Neo-environmental determinism scholars debate how much the physical environment shapes economic and political institutions.
Different diamond shapes will affect the perceived size of the diamond. Diamonds with an elongated shape, like the Oval and Marquise, often appear larger than Round cut diamonds of the same carat ...
The d glide is often called the diamond glide plane as it features in the diamond structure. In cases where there are two possibilities among a, b, and c (such as a or b), the letter e is used. (In these cases, centering entails that both glides occur.) To summarize: a, b, or c glide translation along half the lattice vector of this face.
A diamond cut is a style or design guide used when shaping a diamond for polishing such as the brilliant cut. Cut refers to shape (pear, oval), and also the symmetry, proportioning and polish of a diamond. The cut of a diamond greatly affects a diamond's brilliance—a poorly-cut diamond is less luminous.
King David Apple. The King David apple is a cross between a Jonathan (or Winesap) and an Arkansas Black. It was first discovered in Arkansas in the late 1800s. This apple has deep red flesh with a ...
A Block Matching Algorithm is a way of locating matching macroblocks in a sequence of digital video frames for the purposes of motion estimation.The underlying supposition behind motion estimation is that the patterns corresponding to objects and background in a frame of video sequence move within the frame to form corresponding objects on the subsequent frame.
