Carl Paul Gottfried von Linde (11 June 1842 – 16 November 1934) was a German scientist, engineer, and businessman. He discovered the refrigeration cycle and invented the first industrial-scale air separation and gas liquefaction processes, which led to the first reliable and efficient compressed-ammonia refrigerator in...

In mathematics, particularly, in analysis , Carleman's condition gives a sufficient condition for the determinacy of the moment problem . That is, if a measure μ {\displaystyle \mu } satisfies Carleman's condition, there is no other measure ν {\displaystyle \nu } having the same moments as μ . {\displaystyle \mu .} The...

In mathematics , Carleman's equation is a Fredholm integral equation of the first kind with a logarithmic kernel . Its solution was first given by Torsten Carleman in 1922. The equation is The solution for b − a ≠ 4 is If b − a = 4 then the equation is solvable only if the following condition is satisfied In this c...

Carleman's inequality is an inequality in mathematics , named after Torsten Carleman , who proved it in 1923 [ 1 ] and used it to prove the Denjoy–Carleman theorem on quasi-analytic classes. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Let a 1 , a 2 , a 3 , … {\displaystyle a_{1},a_{2},a_{3},\dots } be a sequence of non-negative real numbers , then ...

In mathematics, Carleman linearization (or Carleman embedding ) is a technique to transform a finite-dimensional nonlinear dynamical system into an infinite-dimensional linear system. It was introduced by the Swedish mathematician Torsten Carleman in 1932. [ 1 ] Carleman linearization is related to composition operator...

In mathematics , the Carlitz–Wan conjecture classifies the possible degrees of exceptional polynomials over a finite field F q of q elements. A polynomial f ( x ) in F q [ x ] of degree d is called exceptional over F q if every irreducible factor (differing from x − y ) or ( f ( x ) − f ( y ))/( x − y )) over F q becom...
