81Outer measure — In mathematics, in particular in measure theory, an outer measure or exterior measure is a function defined on all subsets of a given set with values in the extended real numbers satisfying some additional technical conditions. A general theory… …
82Singular cardinals hypothesis — In set theory, the singular cardinals hypothesis (SCH) arose from the question of whether the least cardinal number for which the generalized continuum hypothesis (GCH) might fail could be a singular cardinal.According to Mitchell (1992), the… …
83Itō diffusion — In mathematics mdash; specifically, in stochastic analysis mdash; an Itō diffusion is a solution to a specific type of stochastic differential equation. Itō diffusions are named after the Japanese mathematician Kiyoshi Itō.OverviewA (time… …
84Alexandra Bellow — (1935 ndash;) is a mathematician who has made substantial contributions to the fields of ergodic theory, probability and analysis. BiographyShe was born in Bucharest, Romania, as Alexandra Bagdasar. Her parents were both physicians. Her mother,… …
85Random variable — A random variable is a rigorously defined mathematical entity used mainly to describe chance and probability in a mathematical way. The structure of random variables was developed and formalized to simplify the analysis of games of chance,… …
86Field of sets — Set algebra redirects here. For the basic properties and laws of sets, see Algebra of sets. In mathematics a field of sets is a pair where X is a set and is an algebra over X i.e., a non empty subset of the power set of X closed under the… …
87Simple function — In mathematical field of real analysis, a simple function is a real valued function over a subset of the real line which attains only a finite number of values. Some authors also require simple functions to be measurable; as used in practice,… …
88Government contract — Contracting with the U.S. Government is based on many of the same principles as commercial contracting andcan be very profitable, but is sufficiently different from commercial contracting to require special care.Persons entering into commercial… …
89Hitting time — In the study of stochastic processes in mathematics, a hitting time (or first hit time) is a particular instance of a stopping time, the first time at which a given process hits a given subset of the state space. Exit times and return times are… …
90Prékopa-Leindler inequality — In mathematics, the Prékopa Leindler inequality is an integral inequality closely related to the reverse Young s inequality, the Brunn Minkowski inequality and a number of other important and classical inequalities in analysis. The result is… …
