  2. Abel's test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abel's_test

    Abel's uniform convergence test is a criterion for the uniform convergence of a series of functions or an improper integration of functions dependent on parameters. It is related to Abel's test for the convergence of an ordinary series of real numbers, and the proof relies on the same technique of summation by parts. The test is as follows.

  3. Amyloid plaques - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amyloid_plaques

    Amyloid beta (Aβ) is a small protein, most often 40 or 42 amino acids in length, that is released from a longer parent protein called the Aβ-precursor protein (APP). [24] APP is produced by many types of cell in the body, but it is especially abundant in neurons. It is a single-pass transmembrane protein, passing once through cellular ...

    where f α are the functions in the fast-growing hierarchy. He further showed that the first α this holds for is the ordinal of the theory ID <ω of arbitrary finite iterations of an inductive definition. [5] However, for the assignment of fundamental sequences found in [3] the first match up occurs at the level ε 0. [6]

  5. Fundamental sequence (set theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamental_sequence_(set...

    Fundamental sequences arise in some settings of definitions of large countable ordinals, definitions of hierarchies of fast-growing functions, and proof theory.Bachmann defined a hierarchy of functions in 1950, providing a system of names for ordinals up to what is now known as the Bachmann–Howard ordinal, by defining fundamental sequences for namable ordinals below . [9]

  6. American Invitational Mathematics Examination - Wikipedia

    The American Invitational Mathematics Examination (AIME) is a selective 15-question, 3-hour test given since 1983 to those who rank in the top 5% on the AMC 12 high school mathematics examination (formerly known as the AHSME), and starting in 2010, those who rank in the top 2.5% on the AMC 10. Two different versions of the test are administered ...

  7. Net (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In mathematics, more specifically in general topology and related branches, a net or Moore–Smith sequence is a function whose domain is a directed set. The codomain of this function is usually some topological space. Nets directly generalize the concept of a sequence in a metric space.

  8. Dirichlet's test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirichlet's_test

    In mathematics, Dirichlet's test is a method of testing for the convergence of a series that is especially useful for proving conditional convergence. It is named after its author Peter Gustav Lejeune Dirichlet , and was published posthumously in the Journal de Mathématiques Pures et Appliquées in 1862.

  9. Snake lemma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snake_lemma

    The snake lemma is a tool used in mathematics, particularly homological algebra, to construct long exact sequences.The snake lemma is valid in every abelian category and is a crucial tool in homological algebra and its applications, for instance in algebraic topology.
