Continuous functions are Riemann integrable Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-29
A continuous function on a compact interval is uniformly continuous. A partition with sufficiently small mesh then makes the oscillation on every subinterval small, so its upper and lower Darboux sums can be made arbitrarily close.
Two-dimensional general relativity Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-24
With no cosmological term, the two-dimensional Einstein field equations reduce identically on the geometric side to . They impose and supply no local metric dynamics; the Einstein-Hilbert action is topological.
Cheeger constant Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-24
The Cheeger constant of a finite reversible chain is the least stationary boundary flow divided by the smaller stationary mass of a set and its complement.
Dirichlet form of a Markov chain Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-14
For a reversible transition matrix with invariant distribution ,
This chain energy is a discrete example of a Dirichlet form.
Detailed balance Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-07
Detailed balance is the identity pi_i P_ij = pi_j P_ji for every pair of states.
Retract of a contractible space Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-28
Every retract of a contractible space is contractible. If is the inclusion, is a retraction, and contracts , then

Equilibrium residual-life distribution Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-24
The invariant residual-life mass at i is proportional to the probability that a lifetime exceeds i.
Residual lifetime Markov chain Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-24
With bounded integer lifetimes, residual lifetime decreases deterministically and resets randomly at zero.
Renewal excess limit theorem Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-24
For non-arithmetic inter-renewal times with finite positive mean , the excess converges in distribution to with
Induced two-dimensional dihedral representation Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-29
For , the rotation acts by and the reflection interchanges the two eigenlines.
Central circle weight-space decomposition Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-24
If a central subgroup is isomorphic to , its weight spaces are invariant under the entire group, because every representing operator commutes with the central circle action.
Backward option pricing Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-14
At each node of a binomial tree, a claim with next-period values has value
where is the local risk-neutral probability in a binomial market. For an American claim, replace this continuation value by the maximum of continuation and immediate exercise value.

Stochastic length bias of a renewal interval Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-24
At every deterministic , the containing interval stochastically dominates an unselected interarrival time:
Conditioning on the first interarrival gives a renewal equation; subtracting the constant tail probability leaves a renewal equation with a nonnegative forcing term.
Exponential renewal interval limit Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-24
For exponential interarrival times of rate , the age and residual life at time converge jointly to independent rate- exponential variables. Their sum therefore converges to the gamma distribution with density , the size-biased exponential law.

Dimensional regularization Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-24
Dimensional regularization analytically continues loop integrals from an integer spacetime dimension to . Ultraviolet logarithms then appear as poles in .
Cutoff regularization Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-03
Cutoff regularization restricts loop momenta to . The ultraviolet cutoff makes individual integrals finite while displaying power and logarithmic ultraviolet divergences explicitly.
Early stopping Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-05
Early stopping halts iterative fitting near the best validation performance, limiting adaptation to training noise.
