For a quadratic inflaton potential ending at the leading estimate , . Cosmological horizon exit gives . A narrow logarithmic interval therefore probes a field span , to the accuracy of the slow-roll approximation. At sixty e-folds, five logarithmic wavenumber units probe about around a background field near .
For a p-adic field with odd residue characteristic, the square map is an isomorphism on by Hensel lemma. The parity of the valuation and the square class of the residue unit therefore determine the square-class group of a field. Its three nontrivial classes give the three quadratic extensions: one unramified extension and two totally ramified extensions.
Trim and fill 2026-10-07
Trim and fill estimates missing studies from funnel plot asymmetry by trimming extreme studies to locate a centre and filling in counterparts on the less represented side. The adjusted meta-analysis includes these imputed estimates. Its interpretation depends on a symmetry model for missing evidence; it is not a guarantee that genuine publication bias has been removed.
Selection model for publication bias 2026-10-07
A selection model combines a distribution for all study results with a probability that a result becomes available. The observed distribution is reweighted by this probability and renormalized. Assumed or estimated selection mechanisms permit sensitivity analysis of a meta-analysis, but unavailable results generally prevent a fully assumption-free correction.
Eta singlet state 2026-10-07
This flavour combination is the invariant scalar in the octet and singlet in a fundamental SU3 tensor product. Its isospin and flavour hypercharge vanish. Although it shares the central weight with the Eta octet state, it lies in a different irreducible representation. Physical eta mixing and the singlet axial anomaly distinguish the mass eigenstates from the pure flavour directions.
Eta and eta prime mesons 2026-10-07
These neutral isospin-zero pseudoscalar mesons have . Their light-quark components mix the Eta octet state and eta singlet state. The singlet axial anomaly contributes to the unusually large eta-prime mass, while flavour breaking also affects both masses and the mixing. The simple orthogonal one-angle flavour model is useful for explaining the nonet; detailed decay-constant descriptions can require more than one parameter.
Propositional type 2026-10-07
A propositional type is a collection of propositional formulas to be jointly realized by a Boolean valuation. A valuation realizes it when every member is true and omits it when some member is false. For propositional omission arguments, the collection need not itself be consistent.
Proportional-hazards time interaction 2026-10-07
A time interaction extends a constant-coefficient Cox proportional-hazards model by a covariate term and tests whether its coefficient is zero. The time function is evaluated at the current event/risk-set time, not each person's eventual outcome time. Scaled Schoenfeld residuals provide related graphical and score-test diagnostics for coefficient trends.
Strictly proper scoring rule 2026-10-07
A proper scoring rule is strictly proper when truthful reporting is the unique optimizing distribution. For densities, equality is understood almost everywhere relative to the reference measure.
Lorentz spinor double cover 2026-10-07
Identify Minkowski vectors with Hermitian matrices . The action preserves . It gives a surjective homomorphism from to the Proper orthochronous Lorentz group with kernel . Polar decomposition retracts the covering group onto SU(2), making it simply connected. This cover permits half-integer spin group representations that do not descend to the Lorentz group itself.
Dual projective space 2026-10-07
Hyperplanes in are kernels of nonzero linear functionals modulo scalar multiplication. Their parameter space is therefore , of the same dimension. In particular lines in a projective plane are parametrized by another projective plane.
Empty-set cases for Cartesian projections 2026-10-07
For a coordinate projection map onto , write for the other factor. The map is surjective exactly when is empty or is nonempty. It is injective exactly when is empty or has at most one element. In particular, a surjection onto an empty Cartesian product need not induce a surjection onto a nonempty factor.
Pro-p group 2026-10-07
Profinite abelian group 2026-10-07
A profinite abelian group is an inverse limit of finite abelian groups. Its topology is compact and totally disconnected. An abelian pro-p group acquires scalar multiplication by p-adic integers by taking limits of integer multiples.
For positive , quotient by . This is a free double covering space action. Its closed manifold quotient is orientable exactly when is even, because the product mapping degree is . If , the product is simply connected and the quotient has fundamental group . For , the quotient has integral cohomology groups in degrees , in degrees , and zero elsewhere. Every positive-degree cup product is zero. These conclusions follow from Poincare duality, the Euler characteristic under a finite covering, and the universal coefficient theorem for cohomology.
For any fixed density strictly below one, random subsets of an integer interval can have that density yet avoid arithmetic progressions longer than a constant times the logarithm of the interval length. A union bound over possible progressions bounds their occurrence, while concentration of the random cardinality supplies a dense realization. Passing to a subset gives an exact prescribed cardinality.
Prior density 2026-10-07
A prior density is the probability density function of a continuous prior distribution with respect to a specified reference measure. A proper prior density is nonnegative and integrates to one. Prior-density factors enter Bayesian posterior and RJ-MCMC acceptance formulas along with the likelihood and model prior probabilities.
Spatial-gradient cubic curvature bispectrum 2026-10-07
With cosmic-time interaction coefficient , constant , and modes whose positive-frequency part is in units , two Wick contractions per differentiated pair and the late-time scalar gradient vertex integral giveHere . The extra factor in must be included. A positive yields a negative bispectrum in an equilateral bispectrum configuration; changing the sign of the interaction changes the sign of .
Primitive recursive function in intension 2026-10-07
A valid finite construction expression from the initial functions of recursion theory by function composition in recursion theory and primitive recursion. Its extension is a primitive recursive function. The construction grammar supplies both a decidable syntax and a total computable interpreter, but no uniformly primitive recursive interpreter for all valid codes.
Enumerate all valid unary primitive recursive functions in intension by their decidable codes , and interpret each extension . The function is a total computable function, since each finite construction terminates. If it were primitive recursive, some would equal , giving . Repeated extensions in the syntax enumeration do not affect this argument.
