  2. Shone's syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shone's_syndrome

    Shone’s syndrome is a rare disorder that is often detected in very young children. The children tend to show symptoms like fatigue, nocturnal cough, and reduced cardiac output by the age of two years. They also develop wheezing due to the exudation of fluid into the lungs. [1]

  3. Congenital heart defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congenital_heart_defect

    There is a complex sequence of events that result in a well formed heart at birth and disruption of any portion may result in a defect. [32] The orderly timing of cell growth, cell migration, and programmed cell death (" apoptosis ") has been studied extensively and the genes that control the process are being elucidated. [ 27 ]

  4. Complexity class - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complexity_class

    In computational complexity theory, a complexity class is a set of computational problems "of related resource-based complexity". [1] The two most commonly analyzed resources are time and memory . In general, a complexity class is defined in terms of a type of computational problem, a model of computation , and a bounded resource like time or ...

  5. Rare Earth: Why Complex Life Is Uncommon in the Universe

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rare_Earth:_Why_Complex...

    Rare Earth was succeeded in 2003 by the follow-on book The Life and Death of Planet Earth: How the New Science of Astrobiology Charts the Ultimate Fate of our World, also by Ward and Brownlee, which talks about the Earth's long-term future and eventual demise under a warming and expanding Sun, showing readers the concept that planets like Earth ...

  6. BRST quantization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BRST_quantization

    BRST quantization is a differential geometric approach to performing consistent, anomaly-free perturbative calculations in a non-abelian gauge theory. The analytical form of the BRST "transformation" and its relevance to renormalization and anomaly cancellation were described by Carlo Maria Becchi, Alain Rouet, and Raymond Stora in a series of papers culminating in the 1976 "Renormalization of ...

  7. Conformal anomaly - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conformal_anomaly

    A conformal anomaly, scale anomaly, trace anomaly or Weyl anomaly is an anomaly, i.e. a quantum phenomenon that breaks the conformal symmetry of the classical theory.. In quantum field theory when we set Planck constant to zero we have only Feynman tree diagrams, which is a "classical" theory (equivalent to the Fredholm theory of a classical field theory).

  8. List of cohomology theories - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cohomology_theories

    As a ring, it is generated by a class η in degree 1, a class x 4 in degree 4, and an invertible class v 1 4 in degree 8, subject to the relations that 2η = η 3 = ηx 4 = 0, and x 4 2 = 4v 1 4. KO 0 (X) is the ring of stable equivalence classes of real vector bundles over X. Bott periodicity implies that the K-groups have period 8.

    Title page for the third edition of the book. A Course of Modern Analysis: an introduction to the general theory of infinite processes and of analytic functions; with an account of the principal transcendental functions (colloquially known as Whittaker and Watson) is a landmark textbook on mathematical analysis written by Edmund T.
