1503 | Boolean lattice | #: A Boolean lattice always has 2n elements for some cardinal number 'n', and if two Boolean lattices have the same size, then they are isomorphic. A Boolean lattice can be defined "inductively" as follows: the base case could be the "degenerate" Boolean lattice consisting of just one element. This element is less than or equal to itself, which reflects the first "law of thought". Inductive step: given the structure of a 2n-element Boolean lattice, make an exact and separate duplicate of it, which preserves the order relation isomorphically. Then connect the two lattices as follows: choose one as the "bottom" and one as the "top", then draw an arrow connecting each element of the "bottom" lattice to its corresponding element of the "top" lattice. The result is the 2n+1-element Boolean lattice (unique up to order-isomorphism). The 0 of the bottom lattice becomes the new 0, and the 1 of the top lattice becomes the new 1. Note that the 4-element (Boolean) lattice is a square, the 8-element lattice is a cube, the 16-element lattice is a tesseract, and higher-order lattices are higher-dimensional hypercubes in general, with the 0 and 1 always diagonally opposite, i.e., at the highest possible Hamming/taxicab distance from each other (equal to 'n' for an n-dimensional hypercube) and the edges directed so as to connect the vertex closer to 0 to the vertex further away from 0 (in terms of Hamming/taxicab distance). | |||
1076 | p-adic number | #: In the set of 3-adic numbers, the closed ball of radius 1/3 "centered" at 1, call it B, is the set This closed ball partitions into exactly three smaller closed balls of radius 1/9: and Then each of those balls partitions into exactly 3 smaller closed balls of radius 1/27, and the sub-partitioning can be continued indefinitely, in a fractal manner. Likewise, going upwards in the hierarchy, B is part of the closed ball of radius 1 centered at 1, namely, the set of integers. Two other closed balls of radius 1 are "centered" at 1/3 and 2/3, and all three closed balls of radius 1 form a closed ball of radius 3, which is one out of three closed balls forming a closed ball of radius 9, and so on. | |||
909 | free group | #: Given a set S of "free generators" of a free group, let be the set of inverses of the generators, which are in one-to-one correspondence with the generators (the two sets are disjoint), then let be the Kleene closure of the union of those two sets. For any string w in the Kleene closure let r(w) be its reduced form, obtained by cutting out any occurrences of the form or where . Noting that r(r(w)) = r(w) for any string w, define an equivalence relation such that if and only if . Then let the underlying set of the free group generated by S be the quotient set and let its operator be concatenation followed by reduction. | |||
827 | ultrafilter | #: A proper filter of a set has these three properties: (1) it does not contain the empty set, (2) if it contains a subset then it contains all supersets of that subset, and (3) if it contains a pair of subsets then it also contains their intersection. To make it into an ultrafilter it must be made as large as possible without including the empty set. That can be prevented by not allowing any pair of disjoint sets to be both included. If, given a pair of complementary subsets, one of them is prevented from being included, then all subsets of it should be prevented from being included as well, by the second rule. That takes care of all subsets disjoint from the other complementary subset, which should then be included, in order to make the filter approach maximality, i.e., turn it into an ultrafilter. | |||
817 | Pauli vector | #: The eigenvectors of the first Pauli matrix "encode" — as it were — the +X and −X directions. Likewise, the eigenvectors of the second Pauli matrix "encode" the +Y and −Y directions and those of the third Pauli matrix, the +Z and −Z directions. The dot product of the Pauli vector with any unit vector yields a matrix which likewise has eigenvalues +1 and −1 and a pair of eigenvectors; the eigenvector with positive eigenvalue "encodes" the +N direction and the eigenvector with negative eigenvalue "encodes" the −N direction. The dot product of any two such "encoded" directions yields the probability amplitude that the spin of an electron prepared in the first direction will collapse to the second direction when measured along that second direction. | |||
719 | liquid document | #: NEDCOR BANK LTD v LISINFO 61 TRADING (PTY) LTD 2005 (2) SA 432 (C) is a trite principle of our law that the term 'liquid document' for purposes of summary judgment proceedings has the same meaning as a 'liquid document' for purposes of provisional sentence proceedings. In Rich and Others v Lagerwey 1974 (4) SA 748 (A) at 754H, the Court said that, if a document in question, upon a proper construction thereof, evidences by its terms and without resort to evidence extrinsic thereto, an unconditional acknowledgment of indebtedness in an ascertained amount of money, the payment of which is due to the creditor, it is one upon which provisional sentence may properly be granted. | |||
704 | phenomenologically | #: The DSM may be viewed as a behavioristically, phenomenologically oriented nosology which often groups unlike disease states together into categories, and in its behaviorist approach, can ignore distinctions between pathophysiological processes within the brain and normal human response to stressors. Because of this and the modern access, via the techniques of molecular biology, to molecular processes in the human brain and other bodily systems, there is growing call in the psychiatric community to reformulate the mental health nosology, basing it rather upon the pathophysiological processes which may, or may not, underlie problematic behavioral phenomena. | |||
692 | Mazur game | #: In the Mazur game, the unit interval is initially divided into two complementary sets, A and B. Player 1 then chooses a closed interval in of length and greater than zero. Player 2 then chooses an interval within the previously chosen interval, of length and greater than zero. Player 1 then chooses an interval within the previous interval, of length and greater than zero, and so on. After infinitely many steps, the intersection of all the chosen intervals is a single point: if it falls within set A, then player 1 wins; if it falls within set B, player 2 wins. | |||
685 | giria | #: Gũthiĩ gũtigiragia mũndũ acoke. - To go does not prevent a person from returning. | |||
681 | vote mob | #: The organizers claim these fun, upbeat gatherings are non-partisan in nature and have nothing to do with political protest. In particular, the event has also been called a "surprise party," as evidenced by a You-Tube video in which a vote mob comes out of the woods and rolls out a banner that reads, "Surprise! We are voting!" ― Michael Taube
| |||
675 | brivla | #: Brivla are "content words", i.e., categorematic. When acting as selbri they are roughly comparable to verbs (or adjectives (or even nouns), if the selbri's arity is one), and when acting as sumti (e.g., due to being prefixed with "le") they are comparable to nouns. If a brivla modifies another one (thereby forming a "tanru"), the modifying brivla would be comparable to an adverb or adjective (*), depending on whether the modified brivla is acting as selbri or sumti, respectively. // Footnote: (*) - the modifying brivla could instead be comparable, in some cases, to the modified brivla's predicate. | |||
674 | reprocessing | ##: Nuclear reprocessing is a highly-controversial issue; proponents point to the massive reduction in the amount of radioactive waste requiring secure disposal, the utilisation of the remaining uranium and plutonium in the used fuel rods which would otherwise go to waste, and the opportunity to recover valuable fission byproducts such as platinum-group metals and silver, while opponents of reprocessing argue that it delays the switch away from nuclear power and results in massive toxic and radioactive contamination of the reprocessing sites, and that the separation of useable fissile material presents an unjustifiable proliferation risk.

671 | besin | #: 2013, Özkan Evcin et al., "Anadolu ağaç sincabinin (Sciurus anomalus (Güldenstaedt, 1785)) ekolojisi: kastamonu-araç merkez orman işletme şefliği örneği": | |||
649 | bytewise | #: Our bitwise multiset attacks naturally extend to bytewise multiset attacks, because the multiset characteristics are based on the bytewise XOR-sum property. Tetsu Iwata, Jung Hee Cheon (2015 November 26) Advances in Cryptology – ASIACRYPT 2015: 21st International Conference on the Theory and Application of Cryptology and Information Security, Auckland, New Zealand, November 29 -- December 3, 2015, Proceedings, Springer | |||
647 | Yoneda lemma | #: As a corollary of the Yoneda lemma, given a pair of contravariant hom functors and , then any natural transformation from to is determined by the choice of some function to map the identity to, by the component of . This implies that the Yoneda functor is fully faithful, which in turn implies that Yoneda embeddings are possible.
| |||
639 | inverse limit | #: An inverse limit has “natural projections” which are restrictions of the projections of the Cartesian product (to a domain which is the inverse limit). The reason why the projections are described as “natural” would be the following: besides the functor from an index poset to the inverse system, there is another functor from the same index poset to the inverse limit of that system, this functor being a constant functor. Then there is a natural transformation from the constant functor to the inverse limit’s functor: the components of such natural transformation are the said “natural projections”.

638 | en | #: Rannsókn embættis sérstaks saksóknara á meintum innherjasvikum Baldurs Guðlaugssonar stóð yfir í rúmlega ár, en FME kærði málið með bréfi til embættisins hinn 9. júlí á síðasta ári.
| |||
635 | ergativity | #: Ergativity entails that the grammar give treatment to the subject (A) of a transitive verb that is differentiated from the treatment given to the object (O) of such a verb and the subject (S) of an intransitive verb, which are treated similarly to each other. Such differential treatment may take the form of a special case marker (such as an affix or a particle) used with A but not with O or S, or of a specific agreement pattern (for example, the verb may agree in person and number with A, but not with O and S).
| |||
634 | stuwend | #: Autofabrikant André Citroën besloot in 1935 een auto te ontwikkelen die geschikt zou moeten zijn voor het ruige Franse platteland: de TPV, oftewel Toute Petite Voiture . Projectleider en stuwende kracht Pierre-Jules Boulanger omschreef het doel als 'een paraplu op vier wielen'— Auto manufacturer André Citroën decided in 1935 to develop a car that would be suitable for the rough French countryside: the TPV, that is Toute Petite Voiture. Project leader and driving force Pierre-Jules Boulanger described the objective as 'an umbrella on four wheels.' | |||
614 | daarom | #: Polymethylmethacrylaat laat ongeveer 90% van het licht door en wordt daarom vaak gebruikt ter vervanging van glas, ten opzichte waarvan het een aantal voordelen biedt: het is lichter, het versplintert niet, het is eenvoudig in allerlei vormen te produceren, het laat meer licht door dan gewoon glas. — PMMA lets through approximately 90% of light and is thereby often used as a substitute for glass, with respect to which it offers a number of advantages: it is lighter, it does not break in shards, it is simpler to produce into all kinds of forms, it lets through more light than normal glass. | |||
594 | onbeteugeld | #: Katholieken gaan ervan uit dat alle mensen in principe goed zijn, maar de zonde heeft de mensheid al meteen in het begin als een spirituele ziekte besmet en kan haar in spiritueel opzicht te gronde richten als hij onbeteugeld zijn gang kan gaan. — Catholics take it as given that all people in principle are good, but that sin has infected humanity immediately from the beginning as a spiritual sickness and can lead humanity aground in spiritual matters if it can get its way unbridled. | |||
593 | pranic | #: In Yoga, we do not look at foods in terms of vitamins, minerals or proteins. We categorize food in the three following ways – positive pranic food, negative pranic food, and zero pranic food. Positive substances are those which, when consumed, add prana to the system. The pranic energy, the vital energy in the body, will increase. If you consume negative pranic substances, they will take away prana from the system. They will stimulate you on a nervous level but they will take away your vital energies. Zero pranic food neither adds nor takes away. It is only eaten for taste. | |||
589 | opwekking | #: Milieugroepen hebben zware kritiek op het klimaatplan. Ze wijzen erop dat Australië 85 procent van de elektriciteitsopwekking haalt uit kolencentrales, die weinig milieuvriendelijk zijn. — Environmental groups have placed heavy criticism upon the climate plan. They point out that Australia gets 85 percent of its electricity generation out of coal plants, which are not very environment-friendly.
| |||
584 | fiber bundle | #: A Möbius strip is a fiber bundle which looks locally (i.e., over a connected proper subset of its base space) like the corresponding part of a cylinder (a Möbius strip and a cylinder have isomorphic base spaces). A Klein bottle is a fiber bundle which looks locally like the corresponding part of a torus (again they could be thought of as sharing the same base space ; cutting out even a single point of that base space makes the cut Klein bottle isomorphic to the cut torus).
| |||
582 | préface | #: Je suis convaincu que les oeuvres qui durent ne durent que par des malentendus, par toute la littérature dont la postérité les entoure, littérature où les intentions véritables des auteurs finissent par être noyées du tout et perdues de vue. Cela peut se faire déjà de leur vivant. Quelque temps ils luttent : préfaces, interviews, notes et éclaircissements... Puis, comme ils aiment créer, et que tout le temps donné à ces commentaires est perdu pour une création nouvelle, un moment vient où, de guerre lasse, ils laissent dire. (Montherlant, Notes théâtre, 1954) | |||

573 | topological soliton | #: One of the simplest and most commonplace examples of a topological soliton occurs in old-fashioned coiled telephone handset cords, which are usually coiled clockwise. Years of picking up the handset can end up coiling parts of the cord in the opposite counterclockwise direction, and when this happens there will be a distinctive larger loop that separates the two directions of coiling. This odd looking transition loop, which is neither clockwise nor counterclockwise, is an excellent example of a topological soliton.
| |||
573 | minimal polynomial | #: Each root of the minimal polynomial of a matrix M is an eigenvalue of M and a root of its characteristic polynomial. (A root of the minimal polynomial has a multiplicity that is less than or equal to the multiplicity of the same root in the characteristic polynomial. Thus the minimal polynomial divides the characteristic polynomial. Also, any root of the characteristic polynomial is also a root of the minimal polynomial, so the two kinds of polynomial have the same roots, only (possibly) differing in their multiplicities.)
| |||
572 | Kripke model | #: If a given world (in a Kripke model (for intuitionistic logic)) forces neither nor then there is some possible "future" world (accessible from the "present" one) in which is forced true. In particular, if eventually becomes forced somewhere along any possible time thread (towards the "future"), then the present world would force to be true, but if this does not happen there there exists some possible future world in which becomes true. | |||
558 | stiff peaks | #: Whisk your egg whites until you have stiff peaks and then the bowl can be held upside down over your head and the egg whites stay put.
| |||
557 | sub-rectangular | #: The domestic architecture within settlements conformed to no particular plan, and could consist of free-standing circular to subrectangular houses with one or two rooms...
| |||
552 | Peirce's law | #: Consider Peirce's law, . If Q is true, then is also true so the law reads "If truth implies P then deduce P" which certainly makes sense. If Q is false, then so the law reads , which is intuitionistically false but equivalent to the classical axiom . | |||
548 | DCG | #: The AGFL formalism for the syntactic description of Natural Languages has been developed by the Computer Science Department of the Radboud University of Nijmegen. It is a formalism in which large context free grammars can be described in a compact way. AGFLs belong to the family of two level grammars, along with attribute grammars and DCG's: a first, context-free level is augmented with set-valued features for expressing agreement between constituents. | |||
536 | canonical form | #: A canonical form is an element of a set of representatives of equivalence classes of forms such that there is a function or procedure which projects every element of each equivalence class onto that one element, the canonical form of that equivalence class. The canonical form is expected to be simpler than the rest of the forms in some way. For example, for cubic polynomials acted upon by the group of translations along the abscissa, the canonical forms are cubic polynomials without a quadratic term. | |||
519 | inzetten | #: De Gargariërs werden onderdrukt, en ingezet voor de huishoudelijke taken zoals het bewerken van textiel en het bereiden van voedsel, terwijl de Amazonen hun gebied uitbreidden via de kustlijn van Kaukasus tot Thracië. — The Gargarians were oppressed, and used for housekeeping tasks such as the working of textiles and the preparation of nutrients, while the Amazons extended their region via the coastline of the Caucasus up to Thrace. | |||
506 | historico-grammatical | #: In biblical exegesis, the historico-grammatical approach tries to avoid extremes: that of dismissing the use of figurative language in the text on the one hand, versus dismissing the possibility of the miraculous and the supernatural on the other; that of ignoring what the original authors intended, versus ignoring relevance for modern readers; that of forcing the text into a preconceived theology, versus interpreting in isolation from the larger story of the gospel.

506 | burn-in | #: | |||
503 | intermissionless | #: For roughly the next hour of the play's intermissionless 100 minutes, this sense of song weaving awkwardly through the prosaic, repetitive business of a party that changes little from year to year is wonderfully sustained, and it is a compliment to say that you are rarely aware of the period scenery (David Jenkins), costumes (Jane Greenwood) or the subtly shifting lighting (Jennifer Tipton). - | |||
502 | category | #: Just as a monoid consists of an underlying set with a binary operation "on top of it" which is closed, associative and with an identity, a category consists of an underlying digraph with an arrow composition operation "on top of it" which is transitively closed, associative, and with an identity at each object. In fact, a category's composition operation, when restricted to a single one of its objects, turns that object's set of arrows (which would all be loops) into a monoid.
| |||
495 | faith-based | #: You are requesting a $2,100,000 increase for a "Faith Based and Community Initiatives," for a total of $37,432,000 . What distinguishes these projects from faith-based initiatives of the Employment and Training Administration? (1988) | |||
494 | contact geometry | #: The contact geometry is in many ways an odd-dimensional counterpart of the symplectic geometry, a structure on certain even-dimensional manifolds. The concepts of contact geometry and symplectic geometry are both motivated by the mathematical formalism of classical mechanics, where one can consider either the even-dimensional phase space of a mechanical system or the constant-energy hypersurface, which, being of codimension 1, has odd dimension.

492 | volkenrecht | #: Hugo de Groot was een Nederlands rechtsgeleerde en schrijver. Zijn beroemdste werk is "De iure belli ac pacis" (Over het recht van oorlog en vrede) uit 1625. Dit werk vormt de basis voor het moderne volkenrecht. — Hugo Grotius was a Dutch jurisconsult and writer. His most famous work is "De iure belli ac pacis" (On the law of war and peace) of 1625. This work forms the basis for modern international law. | |||
491 | self-soar | #: I'll self-soar today using my hang glider. Many intrepid flyers joined the 70s' Self-Soar Association that had "Otto" memberships and membership numbers in honor of Otto Lilienthal who self-soared off a hill he had built. The booklet series Low & Slow and the Hang Glider Weekly (together 216 editions) frequently used the term "self-soar" to describe flying using an unpowered glider flown after launching by some system without the aid of motors or other persons. | |||
488 | kĩhaaro | #: Cira wa mũciĩ ndumagĩrio kĩharo. - Domestic issues are not addressed in public. | |||
486 | spalt | #: Note: (US) Spalted wood is that which has been cut from a naturally cured, dead, or dying hardwood tree whose wood is normally light in color (such as pecan), and which exhibits patterns of dark stain (crazed) lines and splotches caused by microorganisms and/or fungus. Although slightly more brittle and porous than normal wood from the same species of tree, spalted wood nevertheless can be used to make decorative items and small pieces of furniture. | |||
486 | gin's piss | ||||
481 | European miracle | #: As Karl Ferdinand Werner has pointed out, the 'European miracle' 'did not take place after the 'Middle Ages' or in spite of the 'Middle Ages', but because of the existence of a Christian world dominated in the West by Catholic doctrines, a world we have become accustomed to call the Middle Ages.' (Hans Albert, Between social science, religion and politics: essays in critical rationalism, 1999, p. 205, citing K. F. Werner in Baechler/Hall/Mann (eds.), 1988, p. 172.) | |||
479 | servlet | #: The difference between servlets and JSP is that servlets typically embed HTML inside Java code, while JSPs embed Java code in HTML.
| |||
478 | heartwood | #: The staves are split from the heartwood. The heartwood is composed of dead cells; it supports the tree, but no longer has any physiological purpose. The staves must follow the grain of the wood to achieve a watertight cask, so they are split rather than sawn. — L'encyclopédie du Cognac: From log to stave | |||
478 | cograph | #: Given a function whose graph is , append an apostrophe to the abscissas so that they will not be confused with ordinates when obtaining their disjoint union, which is: . The cograph then is . | |||
472 | streight | #: While we were in this situation, one day the admiral, with most of the principal officers, and many people of all stations, being on shore, about seven o'clock in the evening we were alarmed by signals from the frigates stationed for that purpose; and in an instant there was a general cry that the French fleet was out, and just passing through the streights. - "The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano", by Olaudah Equiano or Gustavus Vassa | |||
472 | noscitur a sociis | #: Foster v Diphwys Casson (1887) 18 QBD 428, involved a statute which stated that explosives taken into a mine must be in a "case or canister". Here the defendant used a cloth bag. The courts had to consider whether a cloth bag was within the definition. Under noscitur a sociis, it was held that the bag could not have been within the statutory definition, because parliament's intention was referring to a case or container of the same strength as a canister. | |||
468 | slavisme | #: le texte dit : “des étoiles pendaient au ciel, comme de gros haricots”. J’ai choisi de garder l’image littérale dans la traduction française, dans le mesure où il ne s’agit pas d’un cliché de langue bulgare mais (…) d’une métaphore délibérément créée et qui s’accorde bien avec le monde intérieur de ce personnage. Dans la marge, il m’a été déclaré qu’il s’agissait sans doute d’un slavisme, et qu’en français, on disait que “les “étoiles brillent” . | |||
468 | linear independence | #: The linear independence of a set of vectors can be determined by calculating the Gram determinant of those vectors; if their Gram determinant is zero, then they are linearly dependent, and if their Gram determinant is non-zero, then they are linearly independent. Incidentally, the same Gram determinant can be used to calculate the hyper-volume of a hyper-parallelepiped (whose edges which "radiate" from an "origin" vertex are described by the vectors). | |||
467 | no | #: Gĩkũrũ kĩega no kĩratina. - The only good old thing is a sausage tree fruit (for fermenting muratina). | |||
465 | spherical geometry | #: Due to the way the geometry of a sphere's surface differs from that of the plane, spherical geometry has some features of a non-Euclidean geometry and is sometimes described as being one. Historically, however, spherical geometry was not considered a fully fledged (non-Euclidean) geometry capable of resolving the question of whether the parallel postulate is a logical consequence of the rest of Euclid's axioms of plane geometry.
| |||
465 | onjuistheid | #: In 1951 stelde Linus Pauling een model op voor de structuur van DNA. Dit model ging er vanuit dat DNA de structuur had van een helix, maar bevatte op andere punten belangrijke onjuistheden. — In 1951 Linus Pauling formulated a model for the structure of DNA. This model assumed from the outset that DNA had the structure of a helix, but contained important errors on other points. | |||
463 | nonclinical | ###: Unprofessional attitude is betrayed by nonclinical reactions to clinical photos, such as complaining about even having to glance at photos of bloody injuries, let alone examining them competently. Health care professionals don't have the luxury of such unprofessionalism and don't suffer it gladly from paraprofessional colleagues either; if you want to be a medical scribe or an editor, you can grow up too, or just go work in another field.

463 | Eusebiusses | #: | |||
462 | antilepton | #: When a W+ boson decays into a positron and a neutrino, lepton number is conserved because the W+ boson is a non-lepton, the neutrino is a lepton, and the positron is an antilepton. Likewise, when a W− boson decays into an electron and an antineutrino, lepton number is conserved because the W− boson is a non-lepton, the electron is a lepton, and the antineutrino is an antilepton.

461 | no | #: Mĩano ndĩtukanagio no kanua. - The diviner's gourds do not get confused, but a mouth does. | |||
461 | hermicity | #: Unitarity is to hermicity what orthogonality is to symmetry. (That is, conjugation by unitary matrices preserves a Hermitian matrix’s hermicity, just as conjugation by orthogonal matrices preserves a symmetric matrix’s symmetry: ; . | |||
457 | laf | #: Maar de algemene regel is dat de man, "zwak of sterk", volgens Kuyper "Koning in zijn huis" is en dat "Een man die zijn vrouw in huis 'de baas laat spelen' laf en onmannelijk is. — But the general rule is that the man, "weak or strong," according to Kuyper "is king of his house" and that "a man who lets his wife 'play the boss' is cowardly and unmanly." | |||
457 | Atalanta | #: It is the Arcadian Atalanta, the daughter of Iasus and Clymene, who is primarily known from the tales of the Calydonian boar hunt and the Argonauts. The Boeotian version of Atalanta is the daughter of King Schoeneus and is primarily noted for her skill in the footrace. In both versions of the myth, Atalanta was a local figure allied to the goddess Artemis.

456 | toeval | #: In september 1928 ontdekte Fleming eigenlijk bij toeval dat in de buurt van een bepaalde schimmel die per ongeluk bij een van zijn bacteriekoloniën was gekomen geen bacteriën groeiden. — In September 1928 Fleming discovered, actually by serendipity, that in the neighborhood of a certain fungus that through bad luck had come into one of his bacteria colonies, no bacteria grew. | |||
455 | Langschwert | #: 1867 Das Langschwert ward an einem Gürtel an der linken Hüfte getragen, das Halbschwert and der rechten, in der Regel mit Ketten am Ringhemd befestigt. (" the long-sword was worn on a baldric on the left hip, the half-sword on the right, usually attached to the mail-shirt with chains.") Albert Schulz, Zur Waffenkunde des älteren deutschen Mittelalters, p. 131. | |||
454 | Funj | #: It is known that the Funj rose from southern Nubia (present-day southern Sudan) to overthrow the kingdom of Alodia, but their origins before that remain obscure and disputed. The Funj themselves claimed descent from the Umayyad dynasty through those who escaped slaughter at the hands of the Abbasids and fled to Abyssinia. A currently more accepted theory is that they are Nubians who mixed with Arabs.

451 | doorsnede | #: De grootte van Eris is echter met behulp van de Hubble-telescoop direct gemeten, en hieruit is gebleken dat deze in doorsnede inderdaad ongeveer 2400 km bedraagt. — The size of Eris has been measured, however, directly with the help of the Hubble telescope, and from this it has become apparent that it indeed amounts to approximately 2400 km in diameter. | |||
450 | implicit function | #: An important class of implicit functions comprises those defined by equations of the form . Choosing as the value means that the implicit function is the inverse of . This type of implicit function is of particular interest when that inverse is not expressible as a closed-form expression, and thus is difficult to study directly.

445 | ũra | #: Mũũria njĩra ndooraga. - One who asks the way does not get lost.
| |||
445 | Galois field | #: A Galois field is isomorphic to the quotient of the polynomial ring adjoin over the ideal generated by a monic irreducible polynomial of degree . Such an ideal is maximal and since a polynomial ring is commutative then the quotient ring must be a field. In symbols: .
| |||
443 | kuyekuyeju | #: Irixulakume eu whun, a-MU-naun wiu. A-MU-naun whun... Itsa kala onu katiwhun... Etsunajatawinejo yiu. Iyawi uleitaku wi, ah kaliwhun, Irixulakume. Iyawi uleitaku wi.

441 | fétichisme | #: Si les fétichismes du pied ou de la chevelure, pour ne retenir que les deux extrêmes de notre géographie physique, semblent présenter des accointances moins directes avec la sexualité que l'attention portée aux orifices, ils attestent que les conséquences érotiques des fixations secondaires sont souvent, dans la littérature, provocatrices d'un imaginaire plus distrayant que celui qu'inspirent les sempiternelles pénétrations. | |||
440 | exterior product | #: The exterior product between a multivector of grade k and a multivector of grade n is commutative if k times n is even and anti-commutative if k times n is odd. (This is related to what is meant when it is said that the exterior product is alternating. It means that a permutation of the factors of a wedge product of vectors changes the sign of the product if and only if the permutation is odd.) | |||
439 | tiga | #: Tiga kuonia ngarĩ kũhaica mũtĩ. - Stop teaching a leopard how to climb up a tree. | |||
438 | noa | #: The power of the spoken word has meant that some dangerous things are not mentioned by their "real" names, but by noa terms, like gullfot (literally "golden foot") for "wolf", or tallbjörn (literally "pine bear"), granoxe (literally: "fir ox"), trädräv (literally: "tree fox") or granälg (literally: "fir elk") for "squirrel". | |||
436 | destructive read | #: Although ferroelectric RAM has many advantages over conventional DRAM, it does share one of DRAM's disadvantages: as with DRAM, reading a FeRAM cell is a destructive read process which erases any data in the cell. When using FeRAM for persistent nonvolatile storage, this destructive-read nature can potentially result in data loss or corruption if power to the device is suddenly lost during a read operation.
| |||
435 | domatium | #: A domatium typically takes the form of a hollow under a leaf, or a system of tunnels in a thorn or stem. Ideally, it is a mutualistic adaptation and should not be confused with simple damage by a borer or gall-forming pest, although commonly there is no sharp distinction between domatia of value to the plant and galls caused by harmful aphids and mites, for example.
| |||
434 | opvangen | #: Chlorofyl is de groene bladkleurstof van planten die zich in chloroplasten bevindt en met behulp waarvan zij licht opvangen en de energie daarvan omzetten in chemische energie die wordt gebruikt voor fotosynthese. — Chlorophyll is the green dye of plant leaves that is found in chloroplasts and with the help of which they catch light whose energy they convert into chemical energy that is used for photosynthesis. | |||
434 | executie | #: De politie in het Amerikaanse Webster (Texas) sluit niet uit dat een jongen die zichzelf ophing de executie van Saddam Hussein nadeed. — The police in the American town of Webster (Texas) do not discard the possibility that a youngster, who hanged himself, imitated the execution of Saddam Hussein. (Het Algemeen Dagblad, 4 January 2007) | |||
432 | opening | #: The opening act of the battle for Fort Sumter was the firing of a single 10-inch mortar round from Fort Johnson at 4:30 a.m. on April 12, 1861, by Lt. Henry S. Farley, who acted upon the command of Capt. George S. James, which round exploded over Fort Sumter as a signal to open the general bombardment from 43 guns and mortars at Fort Moultrie, Fort Johnson, the floating battery, and Cummings Point. | |||
431 | ideal | #: The product of two ideals and is an ideal which is a subset of the intersection of and . This should help to understand why maximal ideals are prime ideals. Likewise, the union of and is a subset of . | |||
430 | cone | #: A cone is an object (the apex) and a natural transformation from a constant functor (whose image is the apex of the cone and its identity morphism) to a diagram functor. Its components are projections from the apex to the objects of the diagram and it has a “naturality triangle” for each morphism in the diagram. (A “naturality triangle” is just a naturality square which is degenerate at its apex side.)
| |||
428 | toevloed | #: Door de toevloed van grote aantallen vluchtelingen was de bevolking aan het eind van die oorlog aangezwollen tot ongeveer 2,5 miljoen inwoners, waarvan het grootste deel dakloos was. — Due to the influx of great numbers of refugees, the population at the end of the war had surged to approximately 2.5 million inhabitants, the greater part of which was homeless. | |||
427 | tertiary | #: A gigaton-scale weapon would of necessity be a three-stage design (incorporating a fusion tertiary - likely with its own massive fission tamper - in addition to the fission primary and fission-jacketed fusion secondary), as a reasonably-sized primary would likely have difficulty imploding to ignition the enormous secondary that would be required to reach a one-gigaton yield with a two-stage thermonuclear.
| |||
426 | successively | #: December 20, 1787 My last to you was of Oct. 8 by the Count de Moustier. Yours of July 18. Sep. 6. & Oct. 24. have been successively received, yesterday, the day before & three or four days before that. — Thomas Jefferson, letter to James Madison. | |||
426 | Hausdorff dimension | #: If S is nonempty then if the d-dimensional Hausdorff content of S is zero then d is larger than the Hausdorff dimension of S, and if the d-dimensional Hausdorff content of S is infinite then d is smaller or equal to the Hausdorff dimension of S. If the d-dimensional Hausdorff content of S is finite and positive then d is equal to the Hausdorff dimension of S. | |||

| |||
421 | mutual information | #: Mutual information between two random variables and is what is left over when their mutual conditional entropies and are subtracted from their joint entropy . It can be given by the formula . | |||
421 | inverse matrix | #: Given the basis of some vector space V, how to find its dual basis, i.e., the basis of the dual space ? Fill the columns of a square matrix M with the basis vectors of V. Find the inverse matrix of M. Then the rows of are the (co)vectors of that dual basis. Since , then .
| |||
421 | epistemic regime | #: The terms epistemology and epistemic regime aren't as complex or abstruse as people might imagine; both address the overlapping questions of "how people know what they know" and "why people believe what they believe." Epistemology is both the study of those questions and the answers found by such study (both senses are common), and epistemic regimes are the contexts that shape those answers.
| |||
420 | local ring | #: The unique maximal ideal of a (commutative) local ring contains all of the zero divisors of such ring, and all elements of the ring outside of it are units. Then in a local ring, the sum of any two zero divisors is also a zero divisor. Contrapositively, if two ring elements add up to a unit then one of them must be a unit as well. A simple example of a local ring is . | |||
415 | welteverstaan | #: Twee identieke tweelingbroers gaan in Michigan trouwen met twee... identieke tweelingzussen. Om de verwarring compleet te maken, gaan ze ook nog eens een appartement delen. Met twee slaapkamers welteverstaan . - Two identical twin brothers are getting married in Michigan to two... identical twin sisters. To complete the confusion, they are also going to share an apartment. With two bedrooms that is. | |||
414 | reflectorize | #: The department, upon registering a vehicle, shall issue to the owner two partially or fully reflectorized license plates or devices for a motor vehicle, other than a motorcycle, and one partially or fully reflectorized license plate or device for all other vehicles required to be registered under this code. | |||
414 | cacaotière | #: Les dominicains ont à la Martinique une sucrerie et cinq cents esclaves (...) à Saint-Domingue, une sucrerie et plus de deux cents Noirs; (...) Les jésuites avaient à Cayenne et dans le Continent (la Guyane) deux belles sucreries, une cacaotière considérable, une vaste ménagerie; et sur ces différentes possessions, au moins neuf cents Noirs. (Wikipédia, Esclavage de la Renaissance aux Lumières) | |||
413 | fold equity | #: Alice holds A♣6♥. Brian holds 2♥2♦. Flop: 9♠7♣3♦. If there's no more betting, the pot equity at showdown is: Alice = 31.5%, Brian = 68.5%. But, if Alice bets and Brian is 70% likely to fold, then Alice's fold equity is 70% × 68.5% = 48.2925%. Total pot equity if Alice bets = 31.5% + 48.2925% = 79.7925%. | |||

413 | anacronym | #: When you write about using a waterproof laser pointer while scuba diving, you probably aren't going to write about "a L.A.S.E.R. pointer for S.C.U.B.A. diving", and you certainly aren't going to write about "a light-amplification-by-stimulated-emission-of-radiation pointer for self-contained-underwater-breathing-apparatus diving", because the words laser and scuba are anacronyms.
| |||
411 | lie | #: While a principle-based approach might claim that lying is always morally wrong, the casuist would argue that, depending upon the details of the case, lying might or might not be illegal or unethical. The casuist might conclude that a person is wrong to lie in legal testimony under oath, but might argue that lying actually is the best moral choice if the lie saves a life.

403 | slavophile | #: Les slavophiles sont les meilleurs soutiens et les pires démolisseurs du régime impérial. Lorsqu'il faut lutter contre l'intelligentsia, ils encouragent le tsar à allonger les tentacules de la police. Lorsqu'on parle d'émancipation des paysans, ils s'opposent de toute leur puissance à la moindre concession. (Jean Renald, « L'Anarchie en Russie », in « Histoire de l'Anarchie, T.2 », 1974) | |||
400 | verwaarloosbaar | #: Neutrino's hebben een verwaarloosbare massa, hebben geen invloed op de elektromagnetische of op de sterke wisselwerking en zijn dus uitzonderlijk moeilijk te detecteren. — Neutrinos have a negligible mass, have no influence on the electromagnetic or on the strong interaction and are thus exceptionally difficult to detect. | |||
399 | interpretandus | #: ne tot manifeste pronuntiata et ante et postea unus sermo subvertat, secundum omnia potius quam adversus omnia, etiam adversus suos sensus, interpretandus ("that one word, to be interpreted according to all rather than against all and also against its sense, not subvert so many clearly enunciated things, both earlier and later" Tertullian, Adversus Praxean) | |||
398 | wonky hole | #: It was local fishermen who made the most startling seafloor discovery. Something unknown was snagging their nets and nearly capsizing their boats. And they called the mystery – wonky holes. — Australian Broadcasting Commission Catalyst program, 18 May 2006 (transcript) | |||
398 | material implication | #: In the truth table in Figure 1, the first row corresponds to modus ponens, the last row corresponds to modus tollens, the second row could be taken to represent an invalid argument (where P→Q is the argument and P is a premise or conjunction of premises), and the third row helps ensure that an argument of the form is invalid. | |||
397 | dual number | #: If f(x) is a polynomial or a power series then its derivative can be obtained “automatically” using dual numbers as follows: where should be expanded using the algebra of dual numbers. The role of the ε is therein similar to that of an infinitesimal.
| |||
396 | push poll | #: The local paper has just released the results of what can only be described as a push poll. The pollsters fed numerous cherry-picked data points and statistics to respondents before asking their opinions on newly proposed government policies. There can be no doubt that the results would have been different had those interviewed not been led to the conclusions the pollsters wanted. | |||
395 | definite clause | #: The clauses , , and are examples of definite clauses. At least in classical logic these would be equivalent to the formulae , , and , respectively. | |||
393 | splitting field | #: The terminology "splitting field of a K-algebra" is motivated by the same terminology regarding a polynomial. A splitting field of a K-algebra is a field extension such that is split; in the special case this is the same as a splitting field of the polynomial .
| |||
391 | sociëteit | #: In 1881 opende de literair-muzikale Club des Hydropathes op Montmartre de sociëteit Le Chat Noir, welke gebeurtenis geldt als de geboorte van het cabaret litéraire of artistique. — In 1881 the literary-musical 'Club des Hydropathes' on Montmartre opened the society 'Le Chat Noir' (The Black Cat), which event stands as the birth of the literary or artistic cabaret. | |||

391 | central simple algebra | #: The concept of central simple algebra over a field K represents a noncommutative analogue to that of extension field over K. In both cases, the object has no nontrivial two-sided ideals and has a distinguished field in its centre, although a central simple algebra need not be commutative and need not have inverses (does not have be a division algebra).
| |||
388 | free imperial city | #: A free imperial city held the status of Imperial immediacy, and was thus subordinate only to the Holy Roman Emperor, whereas a territorial city or town (Landstadt) was subordinate to a territorial prince – either an ecclesiastical lord (prince-bishop or prince-abbot) or a secular prince (duke (Herzog), margrave, count (Graf), etc.).
| |||
388 | bunt | #: We had heard that there was an elite group of three or four pilots in Jodhpur called the "Bunt Club", who had successfully bunted their aircraft - that is, carried out the second half of an outside loop. In the Bunt, you pushed the nose down, past the vertical and still further, until you were in horizontal inverted flight, and came out on the other side and rolled it out. | |||
388 | bond | #: Investors face a quandary. Cash offers a return of virtually zero in many developed countries; government-bond yields may have risen in recent weeks but they are still unattractive. Equities have suffered two big bear markets since 2000 and are wobbling again. It is hardly surprising that pension funds, insurers and endowments are searching for new sources of return.
| |||
386 | curl | #: The curl of the vector field is the vector field .
| |||
386 | coinstantiation | #: Edward MacNeal was pointing out the ubiquity of coinstantiation in daily life when he explained regarding apples and oranges (both literal and proverbial) that "we must feel free to redefine apples and oranges as fruit, missiles, paperweights, or theatrical props as suits our changing needs; then we can observe the rules of addition and have the result make sense."
| |||
385 | graph theory | #: The type of graph studied in graph theory is formally described as an ordered pair comprising a set of vertices, or nodes, and a set of pairs (either ordered or unordered) of vertices, each representing an (directed or undirected) edge; if desired, the vertices and/or edges can be labelled.

384 | -o- | #: | |||
383 | Pauli matrix | #: The first Pauli matrix is like a reflection about the "y=x" line. The third Pauli matrix is like a reflection about the "x axis". The second Pauli matrix is like a 90° counterclockwise rotation and scalar multiplication by the imaginary unit (which rotates the two complex components by 90° counterclockwise in their own "phasor spaces", as it were). | |||
382 | nauw | #: De bruine rat (Rattus norvegicus) is een zoogdier, behorende tot de orde van de knaagdieren.

381 | quotient map | #: If the square (with the subspace topology) in (with the standard topology) is mapped onto the set with the quotient map , then the target space (with its induced quotient topology) is topologically equivalent to a torus. | |||
379 | spool | #: The high-pressure spool rotates faster than the intermediate- and low-pressure spools, as the high-pressure turbine is driven by superheated combustion gases straight out of the burners, while the high-pressure compressor has to spin very fast to compress air that has already been compressed and heated by the low- and intermediate-pressure compressors.
| |||
379 | sawen | #: Thei weren stoned, thei weren sawid, thei weren temptid, thei weren deed in sleyng of swerd. Thei wenten aboute in broc skynnes, and in skynnes of geet, nedi, angwischid, turmentid; ("They were stoned, they were sawn, they were tempted, they were killed with the slaying of sword: they went about in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, anguished, tormented;") | |||

(Africana Notes & News, 1943) | |||
378 | Tera–Wasserburg diagram | #: The axes of the Tera–Wasserburg diagram are the amounts of (a stable, radiogenic isotope unconnected with uranium series decay) and (the start of the uranium series decay chain), each adjusted and expressed as ratio to the amount of (the stable end product of the uranium series).
| |||
377 | huisvesten | #: Brussel, dat sinds meerdere decennia de Europese instellingen huisvest, wordt beschouwd als de de facto hoofdstad van de Europese Unie. — Brussels, which since several decades has accommodated the European institutions, is considered to be the de facto capital of the European Union. | |||

Watson and Francis Crick. | |||
376 | juvenile delinquents | #: The ratio of families who have juvenile delinquents and are on welfare relief is 4.9 times higher than families in general according to judicial statistics. Although the ratio of poor families with juvenile delinquents is relatively low, juvenile delinquents are more likely to come from poor families than from other families. | |||
376 | infinitiivi | #: Suomen kielessä on viisi infinitiiviä: (1.) tehdä/tehdäkseen, (2.) tehdessä/tehden/tehtäessä, (3.) tekemässä/tekemästä/tekemään/tekemällä/tekemättä/tekemän/tehtämän, (4.) tekeminen ja (5.) tekemäisillään. | |||
376 | elementary matrix | #: When an elementary matrix multiplies a square matrix from the left, it applies to that matrix an elementary row operation homologous to the one that created its own self. (Likewise, when an elementary matrix multiplies a square matrix from the right, it applies to that matrix an elementary column operation homologous to the one that created its own self.) | |||
375 | punctuation space | #: Many examples occur on page 204 of the 1837 New Sporting Magazine XIII. | |||
374 | Tera–Wasserburg diagram | #: One feature of the Tera–Wasserburg diagram is that for samples whose original lead content was both high and of unknown isotopic composition, the plotted points may lie on an isochron whose intersection with the axis gives the original lead composition and whose intersection with the concordia curve yields the age.
| |||
374 | sabbatisme | #: Au début de l'année 1528, il arriva à Liegnitz, en Silésie, où, avec Oswald Glaidt, il pris la direction de la communauté anabaptiste et prêcha le sabbatisme (l'observance du repos religieux non pas le dimanche, mais du vendredi soir au samedi soir, selon une interprétation littérale du quatrième Commandement). (Wikipédia, "Andreas Fischer") | |||
