Forme différentielle de degré unEn géométrie différentielle, les formes différentielles de degré un, ou 1-formes (différentielles), sont les exemples les plus simples de formes différentielles. Une 1-forme différentielle sur un ouvert d'un espace vectoriel normé est un champ de formes linéaires c'est-à-dire une application, qui, à chaque point de l'espace, fait correspondre une forme linéaire. Plus généralement, on peut définir de telles formes linéaires sur une variété différentielle.
Cylindrical equal-area projectionIn cartography, the normal cylindrical equal-area projection is a family of normal cylindrical, equal-area map projections. The invention of the Lambert cylindrical equal-area projection is attributed to the Swiss mathematician Johann Heinrich Lambert in 1772. Variations of it appeared over the years by inventors who stretched the height of the Lambert and compressed the width commensurately in various ratios.
SubmanifoldIn mathematics, a submanifold of a manifold M is a subset S which itself has the structure of a manifold, and for which the inclusion map S → M satisfies certain properties. There are different types of submanifolds depending on exactly which properties are required. Different authors often have different definitions. In the following we assume all manifolds are differentiable manifolds of class Cr for a fixed r ≥ 1, and all morphisms are differentiable of class Cr.
Natural exponential familyIn probability and statistics, a natural exponential family (NEF) is a class of probability distributions that is a special case of an exponential family (EF). The natural exponential families (NEF) are a subset of the exponential families. A NEF is an exponential family in which the natural parameter η and the natural statistic T(x) are both the identity. A distribution in an exponential family with parameter θ can be written with probability density function (PDF) where and are known functions.
