  • Characteristic function [r]: A function on a set which takes the value 1 on a given subset and 0 on its complement. [e]
  • Conditioning (probability) [r]: Conditional probabilities, conditional expectations and conditional distributions are treated on three levels. [e]
  • Continuous probability distribution [r]: Probability distribution where variables can take on arbitrary values in a continuum. [e]
  • Discrete probability distribution [r]: Class of probability distributions in which the values that might be observed are restricted to being within a pre-defined list of possible values. [e]
  • Entropy of a probability distribution [r]: A number that describes the degree of uncertainty or disorder the distribution represents. [e]
  • Eventology [r]: A nonstandard term for the study of events from a mathematical, cultural or business perspective. [e]
  • Financial economics [r]: the economics of investment choices made by individuals and corporations, and their consequences for the economy, . [e]
  • Journal impact factor [r]: A widely used annual measure of how often the papers recently published in an academic journal have been cited in the academic literature. [e]
  • Measurable function [r]: Function on a measurable space to a measurable space such that the inverse image of a measurable set is a measurable set. [e]
  • Measure theory [r]: Generalization of the concepts of length, area, and volume, to arbitrary sets of points not composed of line segments or rectangles. [e]
  • Normal distribution [r]: a symmetrical bell-shaped probability distribution representing the frequency of random variations of a quantity from its mean. [e]
  • Poisson distribution [r]: a probability distribution that is typically used to model the number of independent events (occurring at a constant average rate) that fall within a stated interval. [e]
  • Power law [r]: A mathematical relationship between two quantities where one is proportional to a power of the other: that is, of the form where and are constants, with being referred to as the exponent. [e]
  • Quantum mechanics [r]: An important branch of physics dealing with the behavior of matter and energy at very small scales. [e]
  • Sigma algebra [r]: A formal mathematical structure intended among other things to provide a rigid basis for measure theory and axiomatic probability theory. [e]
  • Statistics theory [r]: A branch of mathematics that specializes in enumeration, or counted, data and their relation to measured data. [e]
  • Stochastic convergence [r]: A mathematical concept intended to formalize the idea that a sequence of essentially random or unpredictable events sometimes is expected to settle into a pattern. [e]
  • Stochastic process [r]: Family of random variables, dependent upon a parameter which usually denotes time. [e]
