  2. Cylinder set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder_set

    Cylinder sets are often used to define a measure, using the Kolmogorov extension theorem; for example, the measure of a cylinder set of length m might be given by 1/m or by 1/2 m. Cylinder sets may be used to define a metric on the space: for example, one says that two strings are ε-close if a fraction 1−ε of the letters in the strings match.

  3. Steinmetz solid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steinmetz_solid

    The generation of a bicylinder Calculating the volume of a bicylinder. A bicylinder generated by two cylinders with radius r has the volume =, and the surface area [1] [6] =.. The upper half of a bicylinder is the square case of a domical vault, a dome-shaped solid based on any convex polygon whose cross-sections are similar copies of the polygon, and analogous formulas calculating the volume ...

  4. Cylindrical σ-algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylindrical_σ-algebra

    For a product space, the cylinder σ-algebra is the one that is generated by cylinder sets. In the context of a Banach space X , {\displaystyle X,} the cylindrical σ-algebra A ( X , X ′ ) {\displaystyle {\mathfrak {A}}(X,X')} is defined to be the coarsest σ-algebra (that is, the one with the fewest measurable sets) such that every ...

  5. Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder

    A right and an oblique circular cylinder. A solid bounded by a cylindrical surface and two parallel planes is called a (solid) cylinder. The line segments determined by an element of the cylindrical surface between the two parallel planes is called an element of the cylinder. All the elements of a cylinder have equal lengths.

  6. MapReduce - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MapReduce

    MapReduce is a programming model and an associated implementation for processing and generating big data sets with a parallel and distributed algorithm on a cluster. [1] [2] [3]A MapReduce program is composed of a map procedure, which performs filtering and sorting (such as sorting students by first name into queues, one queue for each name), and a reduce method, which performs a summary ...

  7. Solid geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_geometry

    A solid figure is the region of 3D space bounded by a two-dimensional closed surface; for example, a solid ball consists of a sphere and its interior. Solid geometry deals with the measurements of volumes of various solids, including pyramids , prisms (and other polyhedrons ), cubes , cylinders , cones (and truncated cones ).

  8. Measure space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Measure_space

    It contains an underlying set, the subsets of this set that are feasible for measuring (the σ-algebra) and the method that is used for measuring (the measure). One important example of a measure space is a probability space. A measurable space consists of the first two components without a specific measure.

  9. Carathéodory's extension theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carathéodory's_extension...

    In measure theory, Carathéodory's extension theorem (named after the mathematician Constantin Carathéodory) states that any pre-measure defined on a given ring of subsets R of a given set Ω can be extended to a measure on the σ-ring generated by R, and this extension is unique if the pre-measure is σ-finite.
