    The set [the continuum] is, in contrast, generated by a totally new and more powerful principle, namely the power set axiom. It is unreasonable to expect that any description of a larger cardinal which attempts to build up that cardinal from ideas deriving from the replacement axiom can ever reach C {\displaystyle C} .

    In algebra and algebraic geometry, given a commutative Noetherian ring and an ideal in it, the n-th symbolic power of is the ideal = ⁡ (/) ()where is the localization of at , we set : is the canonical map from a ring to its localization, and the intersection runs through all of the associated primes of /.

  4. Economy of force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy_of_force

    It is the principle of employing all available combat power in the most effective way possible, in an attempt to allocate a minimum of essential combat power to any secondary efforts. It is the judicious employment and distribution of forces towards the primary objective of any person's conflict. Economy of force is the reciprocal of mass.

  5. Omnipotence paradox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omnipotence_paradox

    The omnipotent being cannot create such a stone because its power is equal to itself—thus, removing the omnipotence, for there can only be one omnipotent being, but it nevertheless retains its omnipotence. This solution works even with definition 2—as long as we also know the being is essentially omnipotent rather than accidentally so.

  6. Arrow's impossibility theorem - Wikipedia

    A coalition is decisive if and only if it is decisive over all ordered pairs. Our goal is to prove that the decisive coalition contains only one voter, who controls the outcome—in other words, a dictator. The following proof is a simplification taken from Amartya Sen [22] and Ariel Rubinstein. [23] The simplified proof uses an additional concept:

  7. Principles of war - Wikipedia

    Offensive operations are the means by which a military force seizes and holds the initiative while maintaining freedom of action and achieving decisive results. This is fundamentally true across all levels of war. Mass – Mass the effects of overwhelming combat power at the decisive place and time. Synchronizing all the elements of combat ...

  9. Function (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_(mathematics)

    However, as the coefficients of a series are quite arbitrary, a function that is the sum of a convergent series is generally defined otherwise, and the sequence of the coefficients is the result of some computation based on another definition. Then, the power series can be used to enlarge the domain of the function.
