A prime knot is a nontrivial knot that is not a composite knot.

The blowup replaces a point of a complex $n$-manifold by the projective space of complex tangent directions ${\mathbb{CP}}^{n-1}$. A biholomorphism carrying one center to another lifts to a biholomorphism of their blowups.

It is the point-center case of blowup of an algebraic variety, also interpreted analytically.

The first Chern class classifies complex line bundles topologically. For a Hermitian holomorphic line bundle with Chern curvature $F_{\nabla }$, Chern-Weil theory gives $c_1(E)=[i{F}_{\nabla }/(2\pi )]$.

The canonical bundle of a complex $n$-manifold is the holomorphic line bundle $K_X={\bigwedge }^n(T^{1,0}X{)}^{\ast }$.

A Kähler manifold is a complex manifold with a positive real closed $(1,1)$-form $\omega$. The associated Riemannian metric is $g(u,v)=\omega (u,Jv)$.

A complex torus is a quotient ${\mathbb{C}}^n/\Lambda$ by a discrete subgroup $\Lambda \cong {\mathbb{Z}}^{2n}$ spanning ${\mathbb{C}}^n$ over $\mathbb{R}$. Translation-invariant differential forms descend to the quotient.

A holomorphic vector bundle is a complex vector bundle whose local trivializations have holomorphic transition functions.

The complexified cotangent bundle decomposes into $(1,0)$ and $(0,1)$ parts. The Dolbeault operator is the type-$(0,1)$ component of the exterior derivative, $\bar{\partial }:{\Omega }^{p,q}\to {\Omega }^{p,q+1}$, and integrability gives ${\bar{\partial }}^2=0$.

Together with its $(1,0)$ counterpart, the Dolbeault operator decomposes the exterior derivative on complex differential forms.

A complex submanifold is locally the common zero set of holomorphic coordinates, equivalently a smooth submanifold whose tangent spaces are complex linear.

The homology object is $H_n=\ker d_n/\mathrm{im}{d}_{n+1}$, formed categorically as the cokernel of the image-to-kernel monomorphism.

A Riemannian manifold is geodesically complete when every maximal geodesic is defined for every real affine parameter, equivalently when every exponential map is defined on its entire tangent space.

In dimension $d$, the fan whose rays are generated by $e_1,\dots ,e_d,-{\sum }_i{e}_i$ and whose cones are generated by proper subsets of those rays is complete. It is the fan of projective space ${\mathbb{P}}^d$.

For a cone $\tau \in \Sigma$, its star is the fan in the quotient by $\mathrm{span}(\tau )$ formed from the images of all cones $\sigma$ containing $\tau$ as a face.

Choose degree-one classes ${\alpha }_i,{\beta }_i$ dual to a symplectic basis of one-cycles and let $\omega$ generate $H^2({\Sigma }_g;\mathbb{Z})$. The only nonzero products of positive-degree basis elements are

If the Hausdorff hyperspace is complete, its closed subspace of singletons is complete. Since that subspace is isometric to the original metric space, the original space is complete as well.

Weak Chomsky normal form additionally permits ternary productions $A\to BCD$. Compressing a two-step pattern $A\to BE$, $E\to CD$ into $A\to BCD$ preserves its generated yields whenever the intermediate variable has no other role, and saves one derivation step each time the pattern is used.

A Chomsky-normal-form parse tree for a word of length $n\ge 1$ has $n$ terminal productions and $n-1$ binary productions. Every derivation represented by the tree therefore has exactly $2n-1$ steps.

A unit production replaces one nonterminal by one nonterminal and emits no terminal symbols.

An epsilon production is a grammar production whose right-hand side is the empty word.

The Kähler potential is a real function integrated over full superspace. The canonical choice $K={\Phi }^{†}\Phi$ gives canonical kinetic terms.
