Brackets
A bracket is either of two tall fore- or back-facing punctuation marks commonly used to isolate a segment of text or data from its surroundings. They come in four main pairs of shapes, as given in the box to the right, which also gives their names, that vary between British English, British and American English. "Brackets", without further qualification, are in British English the ... marks and in American English the ... marks. Other symbols are repurposed as brackets in specialist contexts, such as International Phonetic Alphabet#Brackets and transcription delimiters, those used by linguists. Brackets are typically deployed in symmetric pairs, and an individual bracket may be identified as a "left" or "right" bracket or, alternatively, an "opening bracket" or "closing bracket", respectively, depending on the Writing system#Directionality, directionality of the context. In casual writing and in technical fields such as computing or linguistic analysis of grammar, brackets ne ...

Mathematician
A mathematician is someone who uses an extensive knowledge of mathematics in their work, typically to solve mathematical problems. Mathematicians are concerned with numbers, data, quantity, mathematical structure, structure, space, Mathematical model, models, and mathematics#Calculus and analysis, change. History One of the earliest known mathematicians was Thales of Miletus (); he has been hailed as the first true mathematician and the first known individual to whom a mathematical discovery has been attributed. He is credited with the first use of deductive reasoning applied to geometry, by deriving four corollaries to Thales's theorem. The number of known mathematicians grew when Pythagoras of Samos () established the Pythagorean school, whose doctrine it was that mathematics ruled the universe and whose motto was "All is number". It was the Pythagoreans who coined the term "mathematics", and with whom the study of mathematics for its own sake begins. The first woman math ...

ZbMATH Open
zbMATH Open, formerly Zentralblatt MATH, is a major reviewing service providing reviews and abstracts for articles in pure and applied mathematics, produced by the Berlin office of FIZ Karlsruhe – Leibniz Institute for Information Infrastructure GmbH. Editors are the European Mathematical Society, FIZ Karlsruhe, and the Heidelberg Academy of Sciences. zbMATH is distributed by Springer Science+Business Media. It uses the Mathematics Subject Classification codes for organising reviews by topic. History Mathematicians Richard Courant, Otto Neugebauer, and Harald Bohr, together with the publisher Ferdinand Springer, took the initiative for a new mathematical reviewing journal. Harald Bohr worked in Copenhagen. Courant and Neugebauer were professors at the University of Göttingen. At that time, Göttingen was considered one of the central places for mathematical research, having appointed mathematicians like David Hilbert, Hermann Minkowski, Carl Runge, and Felix Klein, ...

Bergman Kernel
In the mathematical study of several complex variables, the Bergman kernel, named after Stefan Bergman, is the reproducing kernel for the Hilbert space ( RKHS) of all square integrable holomorphic functions on a domain ''D'' in C''n''. In detail, let L2(''D'') be the Hilbert space of square integrable functions on ''D'', and let ''L''2,''h''(''D'') denote the subspace consisting of holomorphic functions in L2(''D''): that is, :L^(D) = L^2(D)\cap H(D) where ''H''(''D'') is the space of holomorphic functions in ''D''. Then ''L''2,''h''(''D'') is a Hilbert space: it is a closed linear subspace of ''L''2(''D''), and therefore complete in its own right. This follows from the fundamental estimate, that for a holomorphic square-integrable function ''ƒ'' in ''D'' for every compact subset ''K'' of ''D''. Thus convergence of a sequence of holomorphic functions in ''L''2(''D'') implies also compact convergence, and so the limit function is also holomorphic. Another consequence ...

Pseudoconvex Domain
In mathematics, more precisely in the theory of functions of several complex variables, a pseudoconvex set is a special type of open set in the ''n''-dimensional complex space C''n''. Pseudoconvex sets are important, as they allow for classification of domains of holomorphy. Let :G\subset ^n be a domain, that is, an open connected subset. One says that G is ''pseudoconvex'' (or '' Hartogs pseudoconvex'') if there exists a continuous plurisubharmonic function \varphi on G such that the set :\ is a relatively compact subset of G for all real numbers x. In other words, a domain is pseudoconvex if G has a continuous plurisubharmonic exhaustion function. Every (geometrically) convex set is pseudoconvex. However, there are pseudoconvex domains which are not geometrically convex. When G has a C^2 (twice continuously differentiable) boundary, this notion is the same as Levi pseudoconvexity, which is easier to work with. More specifically, with a C^2 boundary, it can be shown ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Sobolev Space
In mathematics, a Sobolev space is a vector space of functions equipped with a norm that is a combination of ''Lp''-norms of the function together with its derivatives up to a given order. The derivatives are understood in a suitable weak sense to make the space complete, i.e. a Banach space. Intuitively, a Sobolev space is a space of functions possessing sufficiently many derivatives for some application domain, such as partial differential equations, and equipped with a norm that measures both the size and regularity of a function. Sobolev spaces are named after the Russian mathematician Sergei Sobolev. Their importance comes from the fact that weak solutions of some important partial differential equations exist in appropriate Sobolev spaces, even when there are no strong solutions in spaces of continuous functions with the derivatives understood in the classical sense. Motivation In this section and throughout the article \Omega is an open subset of \R^n. There are man ...

Bergman Space
In complex analysis, functional analysis and operator theory, a Bergman space, named after Stefan Bergman, is a function space of holomorphic functions in a domain ''D'' of the complex plane that are sufficiently well-behaved at the boundary that they are absolutely integrable. Specifically, for , the Bergman space is the space of all holomorphic functions f in ''D'' for which the ''p''-norm is finite: :\, f\, _ := \left(\int_D , f(x+iy), ^p\,\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy\right)^ < \infty. The quantity is called the ''norm'' of the function ; it is a true norm if . Thus is the subspace of holomorphic functions that are in the space L''p''(''D'').
