division algorithm for integers 整数带余数除法

For $a\in\mathbb Z$ and $b>0$, there are unique integers $q,r$ with $a=bq+r$ and $0\le r<b$.

dominated convergence theorem 控制收敛定理

If measurable f_n converge almost everywhere to a measurable f and |f_n|<=g almost everywhere for one nonnegative integrable g, then f is integrable and the integrals of f_n converge to that of f.

ergodic transformation 遍历变换

A probability-preserving map $T$ such that $\mu(T^{-1}A\triangle A)=0$ implies $\mu(A)=0$ or $1$ for every measurable $A$.

essential isolated singularity 本性奇点

An isolated singularity of a holomorphic function is essential if it is neither removable nor a pole; equivalently its Laurent expansion has infinitely many nonzero negative-power coefficients.

Euclidean algorithm for integers 整数辗转相除法

Repeatedly replace a nonnegative integer pair $(a,b)$ with $(b,a\bmod b)$ while $b>0$; when $b=0$, the terminal first coordinate $a$ is the gcd of the original pair, including $\gcd(0,0)=0$ by convention.

Euclidean domain Euclid 环

A domain with a function $\delta:R\setminus\{0\}\to\mathbb Z_{\ge0}$ such that $a=bq+r$ with $r=0$ or $\delta(r)<\delta(b)$ whenever $b\ne0$.

Euler characteristic of a finite CW complex Euler 数

For a finite CW complex, the integer obtained by summing the number of cells in each dimension with alternating signs, starting positive in dimension zero; it is independent of the chosen finite cell structure.

Euler's theorem on congruences 欧拉定理

If $n\ge2$ and $\gcd(a,n)=1$, then $a^{\varphi(n)}\equiv1\pmod n$.

event 随机事件

A member $A$ of the sigma-algebra $\mathcal F$ in a probability space, so that $P(A)$ is defined.

existential quantifier 存在量词

$\exists x\,\varphi$ holds when some domain value for $x$ makes $\varphi$ true under the remaining assignment.

expectation 数学期望

For an integrable real random variable $X$, its expectation is $E[X]=\int_\Omega X\,dP$; for nonnegative $X$, an extended value $+\infty$ is allowed.

exponential distribution 指数分布

For rate $\lambda>0$, the nonnegative law with survival probability $P(X>t)=e^{-\lambda t}$ for $t\ge0$.

exponential generating function 指数生成函数

For a sequence (a_n) in a commutative algebra over the rational numbers, its exponential generating function is the formal series ∑ a_n x^n/n!.

Ext group of modules 模的 Ext 群

For left $R$-modules $M,N$, $\operatorname{Ext}^n_R(M,N)$ is degree-$n$ cohomology of $\operatorname{Hom}_R(P_\bullet,N)$ for a projective resolution $P_\bullet\to M$.
