The open unit ball of a normed vector space $X$ is $B_X=\{x\in X:\Vert x\Vert <1\}$.

The sets $[n]\setminus \{i\}$ form an $(n-1)$-uniform cover, so the uniform covers theorem gives

For $c(y)=1-y^2$ in the strip $|y|<1$, the travel-time coordinate is $s(y)=\mathrm{artanh}y$. The characteristic curves areequivalently $y=\tanh (C\mp x)$. Outside the strip the same separated ordinary differential equation gives hyperbolic cotangent branches, and the equilibrium curves $y=\pm 1$ are also characteristic.

Sample a finite-state continuous-time Markov chain with generator $Q$ at the independent arrival times of a rate-$\lambda$ Poisson process. The sampled states form a discrete-time Markov chain with transition matrixIts invariant distributions are exactly those of the continuous-time chain.

If a small finite-product category $\mathcal{C}$ splits idempotents, the tiny objects of its presheaf topos are exactly the representable presheaves. Exponentiation by $yA$ is precomposition with $-\times A$ and therefore has a right adjoint given by Right Kan extension. Conversely, if $P$ is tiny, then $\mathrm{Nat}(P,-)$ preserves all colimits; idempotent completeness makes every such presheaf representable.

The tensor square is the second tensor power $V^{\otimes 2}=V\otimes V$. Over a field of characteristic different from two it decomposes as the direct sum of the symmetric square and exterior square.

The nth symmetric power $S^{n}V$ is the quotient of $V^{\otimes n}$ that identifies tensors differing by a permutation of their factors. Equivalently, over characteristic zero it is the subspace of symmetric tensors.

A logistic stochastic block model parameterizes the edge probability between classes $k$ and $\ell$ as ${\mathrm{logit}}^{-1}({\beta }_{k\ell })$.

The Dirac operator is the first-order elliptic operator obtained by composing the spin connection with Clifford multiplication. On an even-dimensional compact spin manifold it exchanges positive and negative chirality spinors.

If $n<m$, every continuous map $S^n\to S^m$ is null-homotopic. After simplicial approximation, its image lies in the $n$-skeleton of a triangulation of $S^m$, hence omits a point. The punctured sphere is homeomorphic to ${\mathbb{R}}^m$ and is therefore contractible.

The statement that $\kappa$ is a cardinal number with $\mathrm{cf}(\kappa )<\kappa$ is generally neither upward nor downward absolute. Upward absoluteness can fail when a larger model collapses the cardinal; downward absoluteness can fail when a larger model adds a short cofinal sequence to a cardinal that the smaller model regards as regular.

If a smaller transitive model has a function witnessing that $x$ is a countable set, the same witness exists in every larger transitive model. Downward absoluteness can fail because a larger model may contain a new enumeration of $x$.

If a larger transitive model regards an ordinal $\kappa$ as a cardinal number, then a smaller transitive model does too: any bijection in the smaller model witnessing otherwise would remain in the larger one. The converse can fail when the larger model contains a new bijection between $\kappa$ and a smaller ordinal.

Transitive models of ZFC have the same natural numbers and agree on whether a shared set is a finite set. Consequently they also agree on whether it is an infinite set.

A bounded formula in set theory has every quantifier in one of the forms $\forall x\in y$ or $\exists x\in y$. Such formulas are absolute between transitive models containing their parameters.

FordefineThe optimizing Selberg weights arefor $d<D$ dividing $P(z)$, and zero otherwise. They satisfy ${\lambda }_1=1$ and diagonalize the main quadratic form to $1/G(D,z)$.

For $V_1={\partial }_x$, $V_2=x{\partial }_x$, and $V_3=x^2{\partial }_x$, direct application of their third prolongations givesThus the Schwarzian is invariant under translation and has weight minus two under dilation; the third identity is its infinitesimal projective transformation law.

For $u_j=u^{(j)}$, the $n$th prolongations of the translation, dilation, and special projective generators acting on the independent variable are

A gliding hump argument selects a subsequence and successive finite coordinate blocks so that each selected vector has little mass before and after its assigned block. A bounded dual vector can then align its signs independently on those disjoint blocks.

Over a perfect field $k$ of characteristic $p$, the scheme-theoretic fiber of the Absolute Frobenius morphism of ${\mathbb{A}}_k^1$ over a rational point $a$ isIts underlying space is one point, but its coordinate ring has a nonzero nilpotent element, so the fibre is a length-$p$ nonreduced scheme.
