  2. Kronecker delta - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kronecker_delta

    The Kronecker delta has the so-called sifting property that for : = =. and if the integers are viewed as a measure space, endowed with the counting measure, then this property coincides with the defining property of the Dirac delta function () = (), and in fact Dirac's delta was named after the Kronecker delta because of this analogous property ...

  3. Iverson bracket - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iverson_bracket

    In mathematics, the Iverson bracket, named after Kenneth E. Iverson, is a notation that generalises the Kronecker delta, which is the Iverson bracket of the statement x = y. It maps any statement to a function of the free variables in that statement. This function is defined to take the value 1 for the values of the variables for which the ...

    where is the Kronecker delta. These two relationships may be understood to be matrix inverse relationships. These two relationships may be understood to be matrix inverse relationships. That is, let s be the lower triangular matrix of Stirling numbers of the first kind, whose matrix elements s n k = s ( n , k ) . {\displaystyle s_{nk}=s(n,k).\,}

  5. Kronecker limit formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kronecker_limit_formula

    In mathematics, the classical Kronecker limit formula describes the constant term at s = 1 of a real analytic Eisenstein series (or Epstein zeta function) in terms of the Dedekind eta function. There are many generalizations of it to more complicated Eisenstein series. It is named for Leopold Kronecker.

    where (g jk) is the inverse of the matrix (g jk), defined as (using the Kronecker delta, and Einstein notation for summation) g ji g ik = δ j k. Although the Christoffel symbols are written in the same notation as tensors with index notation, they do not transform like tensors under a change of coordinates.

  7. Möbius function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Möbius_function

    The Möbius function () is a multiplicative function in number theory introduced by the German mathematician August Ferdinand Möbius (also transliterated Moebius) in 1832. [i] [ii] [2] It is ubiquitous in elementary and analytic number theory and most often appears as part of its namesake the Möbius inversion formula.

    They are generally not used inside a formula. Some were used in classical logic for indicating the logical dependence between sentences written in plain language. Except for the first two, they are normally not used in printed mathematical texts since, for readability, it is generally recommended to have at least one word between two formulas.

  9. Turbulence modeling - Wikipedia

    and is the Kronecker delta. In this model, the additional turbulence stresses are given by augmenting the molecular viscosity with an eddy viscosity. [4] This can be a simple constant eddy viscosity (which works well for some free shear flows such as axisymmetric jets, 2-D jets, and mixing layers).
