  2. Initial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Initial

    Alternatively, the initial may be in the left margin, with the text indented, as shown here. In word processors and HTML, this may be implemented using a table with two cells, one for the initial and one for the rest of the text. The difference between this and a true drop cap may be seen when the text extends below the initial. For example:

  3. Initial value problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Initial_value_problem

    An initial value problem is a differential equation ′ = (, ()) with : where is an open set of , together with a point in the domain of (,),called the initial condition.. A solution to an initial value problem is a function that is a solution to the differential equation and satisfies

  4. Delta (letter) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_(letter)

    Delta is the initial letter of the Greek word διαφορά, diaphorá, "difference". (The small Latin letter d is used in much the same way for the notation of derivatives and differentials, which also describe change by infinitesimal amounts.) The Laplace operator:

    Arche [note 3] sometimes also transcribed as arkhé) is an Ancient Greek word with primary senses "beginning", "origin" or "source of action": [note 4] from the beginning, οr the original argument, "command". [3] The first principle or element corresponds to the "ultimate underlying substance" and "ultimate indemonstrable principle". [4]

    A linear matrix difference equation of the homogeneous (having no constant term) form + = has closed form solution = predicated on the vector of initial conditions on the individual variables that are stacked into the vector; is called the vector of initial conditions or simply the initial condition, and contains nk pieces of information, n being the dimension of the vector X and k = 1 being ...

  7. Ordinary differential equation - Wikipedia

    For the equation and initial value problem: ′ = (,), = if and / are continuous in a closed rectangle = [, +] [, +] in the plane, where and are real (symbolically: ,) and denotes the Cartesian product, square brackets denote closed intervals, then there is an interval = [, +] [, +] for some where the solution to the above equation and initial ...

  8. Acronym - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acronym

    It is common to take more than just one initial letter from each of the words composing the acronym; regardless of this, the abbreviation sign gershayim ״ is always written between the second-last and last letters of the non-inflected form of the acronym, even if by this it separates letters of the same original word.

  9. Capitalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capitalization

    Such scientific terms have their own rules about capitalization which take precedence over the standard initial capitalization rule. For example, pH would be liable to cause confusion if written PH, and initial m and M may even have different meanings, milli and mega, for example 2 MA (megamperes) is a billion times 2 mA (milliamperes ...
