121Column vector — In linear algebra, a column vector or column matrix is an m × 1 matrix, i.e. a matrix consisting of a single column of m elements. The transpose of a column vector is a row vector and vice versa. The set of all column vectors with a given number… …
122Symplectic vector field — In physics and mathematics, a symplectic vector field is one whose flow preserves a symplectic form. That is, if (M,omega) is a symplectic manifold, then a vector field Xinmathfrak{X}(M) is symplectic if its flow preserves the symplectic… …
123Direction vector — In mathematics, a direction vector that describes a line segment D is any vector where A and B are two distinct points on the line D. If v is a direction vector for D, so is kv for any nonzero scalar k; and these are in fact all of the direction… …
124Concatenation (mathematics) — In mathematics, concatenation is the joining of two numbers by their numerals. That is, the concatenation of 123 and 456 is 123456. Concatenation of numbers a and b is denoted a||b. Relevant subjects in recreational mathematics include… …
125Complex lamellar vector field — In vector calculus, a complex lamellar vector field is a vector field in three dimensions which is orthogonal to its own curl. That is, Complex lamellar vector fields are precisely those that are normal to a family of surfaces. A special case are …
126Series (mathematics) — A series is the sum of the terms of a sequence. Finite sequences and series have defined first and last terms, whereas infinite sequences and series continue indefinitely.[1] In mathematics, given an infinite sequence of numbers { an } …
127Probability vector — In mathematics and statistics, a probability vector or stochastic vector is a vector with non negative entries that add up to one.The positions (indices) of a probability vector represent the possible outcomes of a discrete random variable, and… …
128Barycentric coordinates (mathematics) — In mathematics, barycentric coordinates are coordinates defined by the vertices of a simplex (a triangle, tetrahedron, etc). Barycentric coordinates are a form of homogeneous coordinates.Let x 1, ..., x n be the vertices of a simplex in a vector… …
