  2. Terence Tao - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terence_Tao

    Tao's mathematical knowledge has an extraordinary combination of breadth and depth: he can write confidently and authoritatively on topics as diverse as partial differential equations, analytic number theory, the geometry of 3-manifolds, nonstandard analysis, group theory, model theory, quantum mechanics, probability, ergodic theory ...

  3. Criticism of nonstandard analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_nonstandard...

    Sullivan showed that students following the nonstandard analysis course were better able to interpret the sense of the mathematical formalism of calculus than a control group following a standard syllabus. This was also noted by Artigue (1994), page 172; Chihara (2007); and Dauben (1988). [citation needed]

  4. Gigliola Staffilani - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gigliola_Staffilani

    Staffilani is a frequent collaborator with James Colliander, Markus Keel, Hideo Takaoka, and Terence Tao, forming a group known as the "I-team". [5] [8] The name of this group has been said to come from the notation for a mollification operator used in the team's method of almost conserved quantities, [9] or as an abbreviation for "interaction", referring both to the teamwork of the group and ...

    Tao Group was a software company with headquarters in Reading, Berkshire, UK. It developed the Intent software platform, which enabled content portability by delivering services in a platform-independent format called Virtual Processor (VP).

  6. Restricted isometry property - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restricted_isometry_property

    The concept was introduced by Emmanuel Candès and Terence Tao [1] and is used to prove many theorems in the field of compressed sensing. [2] There are no known large matrices with bounded restricted isometry constants (computing these constants is strongly NP-hard , [ 3 ] and is hard to approximate as well [ 4 ] ), but many random matrices ...

  7. Tailored Access Operations - Wikipedia

    The Office of Tailored Access Operations (TAO), now Computer Network Operations, and structured as S32, [1] is a cyber-warfare intelligence-gathering unit of the National Security Agency (NSA). [2] It has been active since at least 1998, possibly 1997, but was not named or structured as TAO until "the last days of 2000," according to General ...

  8. TAO (e-Testing platform) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TAO_(e-Testing_platform)

    TAO is the French acronym for Testing Assisté par Ordinateur (Computer Based Testing).. The TAO framework provides an open architecture for computer-assisted test development and delivery, with the potential to respond to the whole range of evaluation needs.

  9. Ben Green (mathematician) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Green_(mathematician)

    The theory derives its name from these nilsequences, which play an analogous role to the role that characters play in classical Fourier analysis. Green and Tao used higher order Fourier analysis to present a new method for counting the number of solutions to simultaneous equations in certain sets of integers, including in the primes. [6]
