A submodule $N\subseteq M$ is an essential submodule if it intersects every nonzero submodule of $M$ nontrivially. A nonzero module is a uniform module precisely when every nonzero submodule is an essential submodule.

The central infinite cyclic subgroup of the Integer Heisenberg group has quadratic subgroup distortion. The identity $c^{k^2}=[a^k,b^k]$ gives ambient length at most $4k$ against intrinsic length $k^2$. For general $m\ge 0$, take $k=\lfloor \sqrt{m}\rfloor$ and write $m=k^2+r$, $0\le r\le 2k$, to obtain length at most $4k+r\le 6\sqrt{m}$. Conversely, a word of length $n$ in $a,b,c$ changes the first coordinate by at most $n$ and its central coordinate by at most $n^2+n$, so $|c^m|$ is bounded below by a positive multiple of $\sqrt{|m|}$ for $m\ne 0$. Negative exponents follow by inverses. Thus the ambient and intrinsic metrics have quadratic relative growth.

A real scalar field in the Adjoint representation can have a nonzero vacuum expectation value, leaving one massless and two massive gauge bosons. This breaking differs from electroweak symmetry breaking by a complex Higgs doublet.

In a fixed full-rank normal linear model, the studentized estimator of one coefficient has a noncentral t-distribution with noncentrality equal to that coefficient divided by its standard deviation. The fitted and residual orthogonal projections of the Gaussian noise are independent. Therefore the statistical power of its exact Student's t-test does not depend on the other regression coefficients, with design and variance fixed.

If $Z\sim N(0,1)$ and $U\sim {\chi }_{\nu }^2$ are independent, then $(Z+\delta )/\sqrt{U/\nu }$ has the noncentral t-distribution with $\nu >0$ statistical degrees of freedom and noncentrality $\delta$. It describes the test statistic of a Student's t-test under a shifted alternative hypothesis. At $\delta =0$ it reduces to the Student's t-distribution. This is different from adding a constant to a central Student t-distribution: here the shift is inside the random denominator. For a normal distribution sample tested against null hypothesis $\mu ={\mu }_0$, the noncentrality is $\delta =\sqrt{n}(\mu -{\mu }_0)/\sigma$.

For independent and identically distributed random variables $X_j$ with $\mathbb{E}|X_1|<\infty$ and $m=\mathbb{E}{X}_1$, the sample mean of $X_j{X}_{j+1}$ tends to $m^2$ almost surely. Split into odd and even indexed products; each subsequence consists of independent and identically distributed random variables that are integrable random variables. Apply the strong law of large numbers separately.

For $D>2$, rescale the string-frame metric by $g^{(E)}=e^{-4\phi /(D-2)}{g}^{(s)}$. The Weyl transformation of the Ricci scalar makes the coefficient of the Einstein-frame Ricci term independent of the dilaton. Indeed $g^{(s)}=e^{4\phi /(D-2)}{g}^{(E)}$ contributes factors $e^{2D\phi /(D-2)}$ from the volume, $e^{-2\phi }$ from the original coupling and $e^{-4\phi /(D-2)}$ from the Ricci term; their product is one. Derivative terms supply the transformed dilaton kinetic term. The two-dimensional case is excluded from this particular rescaling.

The antiparticle of the strange quark has electric charge $+1/3$ and baryon number $-1/3$.

For an almost surely finite stopping time $T$, if $\mathbb{E}|M_T|<\infty$ and $\mathbb{E}[|M_n|1_{\{T>n\}}]\to 0$, then $M_{n\wedge T}\to M_T$ with convergence in L1. Thus L1 convergence implies uniform integrability makes the stopped martingale uniformly integrable.

For $A\subseteq \mathbb{N}$, the basic set $\hat{A}=\{U:A\in U\}$ in the Stone-Čech compactification of the natural numbers is a clopen set, since its complement is $\widehat{\mathbb{N}\setminus A}$. Distinct ultrafilters are separated by complementary basic sets. A basic cover with no finite subcover would give complements with the finite intersection property, whose generated filter on a set extends to an ultrafilter missing the entire cover. Thus the space is a compact Hausdorff space.

Every convergent sequence in the Stone-Čech compactification of the natural numbers is eventually constant. If distinct ultrafilters $U_n$ converged, isolate each from the other sequence terms using convergence and finitely many separating clopen sets. Finite disjointification gives disjoint $B_n\in U_n$. The union of the even-indexed $B_n$ then belongs exactly to the even-indexed ultrafilters, contradicting convergence of membership in a clopen set.

A spherical clean bubble with negligible internal dynamic viscosity has zero tangential traction and permits tangential slip. In the creeping-flow, negligible-deformation limit its drag is $-4\pi \mu a\mathbf{U}$, versus $-6\pi \mu a\mathbf{U}$ for a no-slip rigid sphere.

For continuous semimartingales, the Stratonovich integral is defined by ${\int }_0^t{Y}_s\circ d{X}_s={\int }_0^t{Y}_{s}d{X}_s+\frac{1}{2}[Y,X{]}_t$, where the first term is an Itô integral and the correction is quadratic covariation. It obeys the ordinary chain rule and is the limit in probability of symmetric endpoint sums.

With $s(x)=1$ for $x\ge 0$ and $s(x)=-1$ for $x<0$, the equation starting at zero has uniqueness in law but not pathwise uniqueness. For existence, take a Brownian motion $W$ and set $B=\int s(W)dW$; the Lévy characterization of Brownian motion and associativity of stochastic integration give $W=\int s(W)dB$. Every solution has quadratic variation $t$ and hence the Brownian motion law. Both $W$ and $-W$ are solutions driven by the same $B$, since the time spent at zero is zero and $s(-W)=-s(W)$ away from zero. Using $s(0)=0$ instead would allow the constant solution and invalidate this uniqueness-in-law example.

A complex line bundle has a canonically oriented underlying real vector bundle of rank two. Its first Stiefel–Whitney class vanishes, and its second Stiefel–Whitney class is the mod-two reduction of its First Chern class.

Under the stereographic projection $w=(x+iy)/(1-z)$, rotations about the third axis have representatives $\mathrm{diag}(e^{i\theta /2},e^{-i\theta /2})$, and rotations about the second axis have representativesThese belong to the special unitary group $SU(2)$. Euler-angle generation of the special orthogonal group $SO(3)$ shows that every sphere rotation becomes a Möbius transformation represented in $SU(2)$. Representatives $U$ and $-U$ induce the same transformation.

The long step-trapped topographic Rossby wave has equal phase velocity and group velocity, $c_T=fd{R}_D/H_0$. For an outer surface profile $\eta ={\eta }_0\mathrm{sgn}(x)-A(x,t)e^{-|y|/R_D}$, cross-step matching gives $A_t+c_T{A}_x=2c_T{\eta }_0\delta (x)$. With $A(x,0)=0$, its weak solution is $A={\eta }_0[\mathrm{sgn}(x)-\mathrm{sgn}(x-c_{T}t)]$. This describes the slowly varying outer response; the fast adjustment region at the origin is unresolved.

At level $\alpha$, a most powerful test against a specified simple alternative maximises statistical power among statistical tests whose size of a statistical test is at most $\alpha$. The Neyman-Pearson lemma constructs it by a likelihood ratio threshold. A uniformly most powerful test is most powerful simultaneously against every member of the specified alternative family; maximising power at one alternative alone need not give uniform optimality.

For a string, this local static gauge identifies two embedding coordinates with the worldsheet coordinates, $X^0=t$ and $X^1=\sigma$. The remaining coordinates describe a graph over that coordinate plane. Folded embeddings may require more than one patch.

At fixed string normalization $C={\rho }_s{a}^2$, scale-factor shifts move between static solutions and are neutral, with no restoring force. The acceleration equation gives $\ddot{a}=0$, but the Friedmann constraint also imposes ${\dot{a}}^2=8\pi GC/3-K$. At the static normalization it excludes a nonzero velocity. A slightly larger $C$ admits linearly expanding or contracting branches; a smaller $C$ admits no real closed solution. This distinguishes permitted perturbations from constraint violations.
