Ordered symbols are notations which are (likely) to appear as they are given here, for example C([a,b],R) denotes the continuous function on the interval [a,b] that map to R - this is unlikely to be given any other way because "C" is for continuous.

Ordered symbols

These are ordered by symbols, and then by LaTeX names secondly, for example A comes before A comes before A

Expression Context Details
  • Functional Analysis
  • Real Analysis
Denotes the Norm of a vector
fCk
  • Functional Analysis
This Norm is defined by fCk=ki=0supt[0,1](|f(i)(t)|) - note f(i) is the ith derivative.
fLp
  • Functional Analysis
fLp=(10|f(t)|pdt)1p - it is a Norm on C([0,1],R)
f
  • Functional Analysis
  • Real Analysis
It is a norm on C([a,b],R), given by f=supx[a,b](|f(x)|)
C
  • Differential Geometry
  • Manifolds
That a function has continuous (partial) derivatives of all orders, it is a generalisation of Ck functions
Ck [at p]
  • Differential Geometry
  • Manifolds
A function is said to be Ck [at p] if all (partial) derivatives of all orders exist and are continuous [at p]
Cp
  • Differential Geometry
  • Manifolds
Cp(A) denotes the set of all germs of C functions on A at p
Ck([a,b],R)
  • Functional Analysis
  • Real Analysis
It is the set of all functions :[a,b]R that are continuous and have continuous derivatives up to (and including) order k

The unit interval will be assumed when missing

Da(Rn)
  • Differential Geometry
  • Manifolds
Denotes Set of all derivations at a point - sometimes denoted Ta(Rn) (and such authors will denote the tangent space as Rna)
iAi Makes it explicit that the items in the union (the Ai) are pairwise disjoint, that is for any two their intersection is empty
p(F)
  • Functional Analysis
The set of all bounded sequences, that is p(F)={(x1,x2,...)|xiF, i=1|xi|p<}
Lp
  • Measure Theory
Lp(μ)={u:XR|uM, |u|pdμ<}, p[1,)R

(X,A,μ) is a measure space. The class of all measurable functions for which |f|p is integrable

Lp
  • Measure Theory
Same as Lp
Tp(Rn)
  • Differential Geometry
  • Manifolds
The tangent space at a point a

Sometimes denoted Rna - Note: sometimes can mean Set of all derivations at a point which is often denoted Da(Rn)

A/B-measurable
  • Measure Theory
There exists a Measurable map between the σ-algebras
ab
  • Anything with vectors
Vector dot product
