Non-cooperative games are a branch of game theory where players make decisions independently and strategically, without collaborating or forming binding agreements with each other. In these games, each player aims to maximize their own payoff, considering the potential actions of other players, but does not cooperate to achieve a collective goal. Key characteristics of non-cooperative games include: 1. **Individual Payoffs**: Each player’s strategy is aimed at maximizing their own payoff, which means they act in their own self-interest.
In geometry, a theorem is a statement or proposition that has been proven to be true based on a set of axioms and previously established theorems. Theorems are fundamental to the study of geometry as they provide essential insights and conclusions about geometric figures, relationships, and properties. Theorems in geometry often involve concepts such as points, lines, angles, shapes, and their properties.
The Generalized Maxwell model is a mathematical framework used to describe the viscoelastic behavior of materials. It extends the classical Maxwell model, which represents a viscoelastic substance as a combination of a purely elastic spring and a purely viscous dashpot arranged in series. In the classical Maxwell model, the relationship between stress and strain rate is described by a simple first-order differential equation.
Bedangadas Mohanty is a prominent figure in the field of Indian literature, particularly known for his contributions to Odia literature. He is recognized for his work as a poet, novelist, and translator, and he has made significant contributions to the cultural heritage of Odisha. His works often reflect themes related to social issues, culture, and the human experience, showcasing the rich traditions of Odia language and literature.
A chemical database is a collection of chemical information that is organized, stored, and made accessible for various applications in research, industry, and education. These databases typically contain data about chemical substances, their properties, structures, reactions, and related information.
Probability books are texts that delve into the concepts, principles, and applications of probability theory, which is a branch of mathematics dealing with the likelihood of the occurrence of events. These books aim to provide readers with a solid understanding of probability concepts, including but not limited to: 1. **Basic Concepts**: Definitions of probability, sample spaces, events, and different types of probabilities (e.g., theoretical, empirical, subjective).
Belgian astrophysics refers to the field of astrophysics as practiced by scientists and researchers from Belgium or those who are affiliated with Belgian institutions. Astrophysics is a branch of astronomy that deals with the physical properties and underlying processes of celestial bodies and phenomena, such as stars, galaxies, black holes, and the universe as a whole. Belgium has a rich scientific tradition, and there are several key institutions and research groups engaged in astrophysics within the country.
"Believe women" is a phrase that emerged from the feminist movement and is often used in discussions about sexual violence, harassment, and the experiences of women. It serves as a call to take women's accounts of abuse, assault, and harassment seriously, emphasizing the importance of believing survivors when they come forward with their stories.
Benacerraf's identification problem is a philosophical issue concerning the nature of mathematical objects and the status of mathematical statements, primarily associated with the work of philosopher Paul Benacerraf. The problem arises from the relationship between mathematical entities and the statements or theories that describe them. Benacerraf identified a tension between two key aspects of mathematical practice: 1. **Ontological Commitment**: Mathematics often seems to assume the existence of abstract objects (like numbers, sets, etc.
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!
Intro to OurBigBook
. Source. We have two killer features:
- 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-calculusArticles 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.Figure 1. Screenshot of the "Derivative" topic page.

- to OurBigBook.com to get awesome multi-user features like topics and likes
- as HTML files to a static website, which you can host yourself for free on many external providers like GitHub Pages, and remain in full control
