  2. Skolem normal form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skolem_normal_form

    In mathematical logic, a formula of first-order logic is in Skolem normal form if it is in prenex normal form with only universal first-order quantifiers. Every first-order formula may be converted into Skolem normal form while not changing its satisfiability via a process called Skolemization (sometimes spelled Skolemnization ).

  3. State-space representation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State-space_representation

    The internal state variables are the smallest possible subset of system variables that can represent the entire state of the system at any given time. [13] The minimum number of state variables required to represent a given system, , is usually equal to the order of the system's defining differential equation, but not necessarily.

  4. Canonical normal form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canonical_normal_form

    In Boolean algebra, any Boolean function can be expressed in the canonical disjunctive normal form , [1] minterm canonical form, or Sum of Products (SoP or SOP) as a disjunction (OR) of minterms. The De Morgan dual is the canonical conjunctive normal form ( CCNF ), maxterm canonical form , or Product of Sums ( PoS or POS ) which is a ...

    Let (x, y, z) be the standard Cartesian coordinates, and (ρ, θ, φ) the spherical coordinates, with θ the angle measured away from the +Z axis (as , see conventions in spherical coordinates). As φ has a range of 360° the same considerations as in polar (2 dimensional) coordinates apply whenever an arctangent of it is taken. θ has a range ...

  6. Conjunctive normal form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjunctive_normal_form

    In Boolean algebra, a formula is in conjunctive normal form (CNF) or clausal normal form if it is a conjunction of one or more clauses, where a clause is a disjunction of literals; otherwise put, it is a product of sums or an AND of ORs.

  7. Differential form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_form

    is a smooth section of the projection map; we say that ω is a smooth differential m-form on M along f −1 (y). Then there is a smooth differential (m − n)-form σ on f −1 (y) such that, at each x ∈ f −1 (y), = /. This form is denoted ω / η y.

  8. Closed and exact differential forms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed_and_exact...

    On a Riemannian manifold, or more generally a pseudo-Riemannian manifold, k-forms correspond to k-vector fields (by duality via the metric), so there is a notion of a vector field corresponding to a closed or exact form. In 3 dimensions, an exact vector field (thought of as a 1-form) is called a conservative vector field, meaning that it is the ...

  9. Algebraic normal form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_normal_form

    ANF is a canonical form, which means that two logically equivalent formulas will convert to the same ANF, easily showing whether two formulas are equivalent for automated theorem proving. Unlike other normal forms, it can be represented as a simple list of lists of variable names— conjunctive and disjunctive normal forms also require ...
