  2. List of formulas in Riemannian geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_formulas_in...

    This is a list of formulas encountered in Riemannian geometry. Einstein notation is used throughout this article. This article uses the "analyst's" sign convention for Laplacians, except when noted otherwise.

  3. Four-dimensional space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-dimensional_space

    For example, consider the formulas for the area enclosed by a circle in two dimensions (=) and the volume enclosed by a sphere in three dimensions (=). One might guess that the volume enclosed by the sphere in four-dimensional space is a rational multiple of π r 4 {\displaystyle \pi r^{4}} , but the correct volume is π 2 2 r 4 {\displaystyle ...

    To find it, we calculate the derivative ⁠, ⁠ set it to zero and solve for v: () = [] / [] ⁡ = with the solution: =; = = where: R is the gas constant ; M is molar mass of the substance, and thus may be calculated as a product of particle mass, m , and Avogadro constant , N A : M = m N A . {\displaystyle M=mN_{\mathrm {A} }.}

  5. Egyptian geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egyptian_geometry

    Egyptian geometry refers to geometry as it was developed and used in Ancient Egypt. Their geometry was a necessary outgrowth of surveying to preserve the layout and ownership of farmland, which was flooded annually by the Nile river. [1] We only have a limited number of problems from ancient Egypt that concern geometry.

  6. Wave function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave_function

    One has to apply quantum operators, whose eigenvalues correspond to sets of possible results of measurements, to the wave function ψ and calculate the statistical distributions for measurable quantities. Wave functions can be functions of variables other than position, such as momentum.

  7. Logistic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistic_function

    The standard logistic function is the logistic function with parameters =, =, =, which yields = + = + = / / + /.In practice, due to the nature of the exponential function, it is often sufficient to compute the standard logistic function for over a small range of real numbers, such as a range contained in [−6, +6], as it quickly converges very close to its saturation values of 0 and 1.

  8. Bose–Einstein statistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bose–Einstein_statistics

    For example, the population numbers for two particles in three sublevels are 200, 110, 101, 020, 011, or 002 for a total of six which equals 4!/(2!2!). The number of ways that a set of occupation numbers n i {\displaystyle n_{i}} can be realized is the product of the ways that each individual energy level can be populated: W = ∏ i w ( n i , g ...

  9. Einstein field equations - Wikipedia

    The Einstein field equations (EFE) may be written in the form: [5] [1] + = EFE on a wall in Leiden, Netherlands. where is the Einstein tensor, is the metric tensor, is the stress–energy tensor, is the cosmological constant and is the Einstein gravitational constant.
