Pfaff transformation Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-14
With compatible branches and initially near ,It follows by applying a Möbius transformation and a dependent-variable rescaling to the same Papperitz symbol, then matching the normalized analytic solution at zero.
BRST symmetry Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-14
BRST symmetry is a nilpotent fermionic symmetry of a gauge-fixed action. Its differential replaces an infinitesimal gauge parameter by the ghost field and satisfies .
Axial gauge Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-24
An axial gauge imposes for a fixed vector . Its Faddeev-Popov operator is ; on the strict gauge slice its gauge-field-dependent part vanishes, so its ghosts decouple.
Faddeev-Popov determinant Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-24
The Faddeev-Popov determinant is the functional Jacobianthat compensates for the change from integration along a gauge orbit to a gauge-fixing condition . It can be represented by a path integral over a Faddeev-Popov ghost field pair.

Expected duration of symmetric gambler's ruin Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-03
For a symmetric random walk started at and stopped on first reaching or , the mean duration isIn particular, . This follows either from the first-step recurrence or by stopping the martingale .
Galactic scale height Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-24
The Galactic scale height measures the vertical thickness of a tracer. Gravity, velocity dispersion, thermal pressure, magnetic and cosmic-ray support, particle transport, and source lifetime determine its value.
Galactic gamma-ray emission Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-24
Diffuse Galactic gamma rays arise mainly from neutral-pion decay after cosmic-ray nuclear collisions, electron bremsstrahlung in gas, and inverse-Compton scattering from radiation fields.
Galactic synchrotron emission Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-14
Galactic synchrotron emission is nonthermal radio radiation from relativistic electrons spiralling in the Galactic magnetic field. Its broad latitude distribution reflects cosmic-ray transport and the magnetic halo.

If , then is absolutely continuous and satisfies almost everywhere. Conversely, every absolutely continuous function has this form.
Eckmann-Hilton argument Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-24
If two unital operations on one set share their identity and satisfy , then the operations coincide and are commutative.
