This remained the standard [4] in mathematics until Kenneth E. Iverson introduced, in his 1962 book A Programming Language, the names "floor" and "ceiling" and the corresponding notations ⌊x⌋ and ⌈x⌉. [5] [6] (Iverson used square brackets for a different purpose, the Iverson bracket notation.) Both notations are now used in mathematics ...
Many mathematical problems have been stated but not yet solved. These problems come from many areas of mathematics, such as theoretical physics, computer science, algebra, analysis, combinatorics, algebraic, differential, discrete and Euclidean geometries, graph theory, group theory, model theory, number theory, set theory, Ramsey theory, dynamical systems, and partial differential equations.
An example of use in the first area, a ceiling effect in treatment, is pain relief by some kinds of analgesic drugs, which have no further effect on pain above a particular dosage level (see also: ceiling effect in pharmacology). An example of use in the second area, a ceiling effect in data-gathering, is a survey that groups all respondents ...
Problems 1, 2, 5, 6, [g] 9, 11, 12, 15, 21, and 22 have solutions that have partial acceptance, but there exists some controversy as to whether they resolve the problems. That leaves 8 (the Riemann hypothesis), 13 and 16 [h] unresolved, and 4 and 23 as too vague to ever be described as solved. The withdrawn 24 would also be in this class.
Several coaches are squarely on the NFL hot seat entering Week 18, with Mike McCarthy and Brian Daboll among those facing uncertain futures.
The name "threshold graph" comes from these definitions: S is the "threshold" for the property of being an edge, or equivalently T is the threshold for being independent. Threshold graphs also have a forbidden graph characterization : A graph is a threshold graph if and only if it no four of its vertices form an induced subgraph that is a three ...
