    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renormalization_group

    Now proceed to divide the solid into blocks of 2×2 squares; we attempt to describe the system in terms of block variables, i.e., variables which describe the average behavior of the block. Further assume that, by some lucky coincidence, the physics of block variables is described by a formula of the same kind , but with different values for T ...

  7. Bloch's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloch's_theorem

    In condensed matter physics, Bloch's theorem states that solutions to the Schrödinger equation in a periodic potential can be expressed as plane waves modulated by periodic functions. The theorem is named after the Swiss physicist Felix Bloch, who discovered the theorem in 1929. [1] Mathematically, they are written [2]

  8. Coefficient of restitution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_restitution

    In physics, the coefficient of restitution (COR, also denoted by e), can be thought of as a measure of the elasticity of a collision between two bodies. It is a dimensionless parameter defined as the ratio of the relative velocity of separation after a two-body collision to the relative velocity of approach before collision.

  9. Christoffel symbols - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christoffel_symbols

    In mathematics and physics, the Christoffel symbols are an array of numbers describing a metric connection. [1] The metric connection is a specialization of the affine connection to surfaces or other manifolds endowed with a metric , allowing distances to be measured on that surface.
