In mathematics, a Rota–Baxter algebra is an algebra, usually over a field "k", together with a particular "k"-linear map "R" which satisfies the weight-θ Rota–Baxter identity.
 It appeared first in the work of the American mathematician Glen E. Baxter in the realm of probability theory.
 Baxter's work was further explored from different angles by Gian-Carlo Rota, Pierre Cartier, and Frederic V. Atkinson, among others.
 Baxter’s derivation of this identity that later bore his name emanated from some of the fundamental results of the famous probabilist Frank Spitzer in random walk theory.

Stephen or Steven is a common English first name.
 It is particularly significant to Christians, as it belonged to Saint Stephen (Greek Στέφανος "Stéphanos"), an early disciple and deacon who, according to the Book of Acts, was stoned to death; he is widely regarded as the first martyr (or "protomartyr") of the Christian Church.
 The name "Stephen" (and its more common variant "Steven") is derived from Greek Στέφανος ("Stéphanos"), a first name from the Greek word στέφανος ("stéphanos"), meaning "wreath, crown" and by extension "reward, honor", from the verb στέφειν ("stéphein"), "to encircle, to wreathe".
 In Ancient Greece, crowning wreaths (such as laurel wreaths) were given to the winners of contests.
 Originally, as the verb suggests, the noun had a more general meaning of any "circle"—including a circle of people, a circling wall around a city, and, in its earliest recorded use, the circle of a fight, which is found in the Iliad of Homer.

 In India it is used as a first name, but the descendants of the indentured laborers in the European Colonies used their fathers' first name as their surname.
 The name is common among the Caribbean Hindu community, but as a result of ethnic mixing it is common in Christian, and non-Indian communities as well.
 Many people of this surname have migrated to the United States and Canada as well.
 Sundar Popo wrote a song called "Rampersad".
