ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations (often abbreviated as ESAIM: COCV) is a scientific journal that focuses on the areas of control theory, optimization, and the calculus of variations. It is a publication of the European Society for Applied and Industrial Mathematics (ESAIM). The journal publishes high-quality research papers that cover theoretical, computational, and applied aspects of control problems and optimization, as well as the calculus of variations, which involves finding extrema of functionals.
The Journal of Nonlinear Mathematical Physics is an academic journal that focuses on the study and dissemination of research related to nonlinear phenomena in mathematical physics. This journal covers a wide array of topics, including but not limited to: 1. **Nonlinear Dynamics**: Investigating systems that exhibit complex behavior due to nonlinear interactions. 2. **Mathematical Methods**: Development and application of mathematical techniques to understand nonlinear problems.
The Journal of Topology is a peer-reviewed academic journal that publishes research articles, reviews, and surveys in the field of topology, which is a branch of mathematics concerned with the properties of space that are preserved under continuous transformations. The journal covers a wide range of topics within topology, including but not limited to point-set topology, algebraic topology, geometric topology, and applications of topology in other areas of mathematics and science.
"Letters in Mathematical Physics" is a scholarly journal that publishes research articles, reviews, and letters on various topics in the field of mathematical physics. The journal serves as a platform for the rapid dissemination of research findings and theoretical developments that apply mathematical methods to physical problems.
"Networks and Heterogeneous Media" generally refers to a field of study that examines complex systems composed of various interconnected components or elements that display diverse properties or characteristics. This term can apply in various contexts, including telecommunications, social networks, and materials science, among others. Here are some key aspects of networks and heterogeneous media: ### 1. **Networks:** - **Definition:** Networks consist of nodes (or vertices) and edges (or links) that represent connections between the nodes.
The Pacific Journal of Mathematics is a peer-reviewed academic journal that publishes research articles in various fields of mathematics. Established in 1956, the journal covers a wide range of mathematical topics, including but not limited to pure mathematics, applied mathematics, and computational mathematics. It serves as a platform for mathematicians to disseminate their findings and contribute to the advancement of mathematical knowledge.
A Notice to Mariners (NTM) is an official communication issued by maritime authorities to provide navigational information to mariners. These notices serve to inform ship operators, navigators, and other maritime stakeholders about changes or updates that may affect navigation safety. Information included in NTMs may cover a range of topics, such as: 1. **Chart Updates**: Changes to navigational charts, including new hazards, modifications to existing features, or updates on depths and navigational aids.
A Nuchal scan, also known as a nuchal translucency (NT) scan, is a specialized ultrasound examination typically performed during the first trimester of pregnancy, usually between 11 and 14 weeks of gestation. This scan measures the fluid accumulation at the back of the baby's neck, known as nuchal translucency.
In type theory and categorical logic, a **quotient type** is a way to construct a new type from an existing type by identifying certain elements of that type as equivalent. It can be thought of as a generalization of the concept from set theory where you can form a quotient set by considering an equivalence relation on a set. ### Structure of a Quotient Type 1. **Base Type**: Start with a set or type \( A \).
Pathfinding is the process of determining a path from a starting point to a goal or destination point, often while navigating through a grid, graph, or physical space. It is commonly used in various fields, including computer science, robotics, video game development, and artificial intelligence. In a typical pathfinding scenario, an algorithm evaluates different possible paths to find the most efficient or optimal route based on certain criteria, such as distance, time, or cost.
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) decoupling is a technique used in NMR spectroscopy to simplify the spectra of complex molecules and enhance the resolution of the chemical shifts. In NMR, nuclei in a magnetic field can interact with each other, leading to splitting patterns (multiplets) in the spectral signals. These interactions can complicate the interpretation of spectra, especially for molecules with more than one type of nucleus (e.g., carbon and hydrogen).
Water Margin quote by Ciro Santilli 40 Updated 2025-07-16
Something along:
If two men are destined to meet, they will come together from thousands of miles apart. If they aren't, they will pass by in front of one another and never know about one another's existence.
TODO find Chinese.
A self-avoiding walk (SAW) is a mathematical and combinatorial object used primarily in statistical mechanics and theoretical physics, as well as in computer science and graph theory. It is defined as a path that does not visit the same point more than once.
Commonality analysis is a statistical technique used primarily in the context of multiple regression analysis. Its main purpose is to understand the contribution of individual predictors (independent variables) to the explained variance in a dependent variable. Unlike traditional regression analysis, which mainly focuses on overall model fit and the significance of individual predictors, commonality analysis helps to parse out the unique and shared contributions of predictors in explaining the variance in the outcome variable.
DeFries–Fulker regression is a statistical method used primarily in the field of behavioral genetics to analyze the relationship between a trait (such as IQ, height, or other measurable characteristics) and genetic factors. Specifically, it is often employed to assess the additive genetic and environmental contributions to the variation in traits observed in populations. The technique is named after researchers Robert DeFries and David Fulker, who developed it to analyze data from twin studies.

Pinned article: Introduction to the OurBigBook Project

Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
We have two killer features:
  1. topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculus
    Articles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
    • a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
    • a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
    This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.

  2. local editing: you can store all your personal knowledge base content locally in a plaintext markup format that can be edited locally and published either:
    This way you can be sure that even if OurBigBook.com were to go down one day (which we have no plans to do as it is quite cheap to host!), your content will still be perfectly readable as a static site.

    You can publish local OurBigBook lightweight markup files to either https://OurBigBook.com or as a static website
