Word: Taylor series Part of Speech: noun Etymology: Named after English mathematician Brook Taylor, who formally introduced the series in 1715. The concept was formulated by Scottish mathematician James Gregory. 1. A power series representation of given infinitely differentiable function f whose terms are calculated from the function's arbitrary order derivatives at given reference point a; the series f(a)+(f'(a))/(1!)(x-a)+(f(a))/(2!)(x-a)²+(f'(a))/(3!)(x-a)³+⋯=∑ₙ₌₀∞(f⁽ⁿ⁾(a))/(n!)(x-a)ⁿ. Example: A series solution about an ordinary point of a differential equation is always a Taylor series having a nonvanishing radius of convergence. A series solution about a singular point does not have this form (except in rare cases). Instead, it may be either a convergent series not in Taylor series form (such as a Frobenius series) or it may be a divergent series. Example: The usual procedure for deriving finite-difference equations consists of approximating the derivatives in the differential equation via a truncated Taylor series.

Word: superdominant Part of Speech: adj Etymology: From super- + dominant. 1. Having an overwhelming proportion of market share, so as to be almost a monopoly. Example: I would like to come back to the idea of making a distinction between so-called 'superdominant' companies and 'just dominant' companies. Example: According to O'Donoghue & Padilla (2006) 168–69, the concept of superdominance is problematic, given that there is no objective economic test that makes it possible to define when a company is superdominant and its behaviour should be subjected to greater scrutiny. 2. Having a disproportionate degree of influence or salience. Example: New York, and later, Chicago were superdominant major centers for entire sections of the country. It is easy to understand how they grew into the main centers of jazz. Example: The face becomes superdominant, the eye subdominant, but nothing is properly predominant. 3. Holding a position of absolute dominance. Example: Although the level of aggression was greatly reduced after the first day, the superdominant hierarchy persisted, although not always with the same superdominant individual. Example: In the competition-dependent alternatives of a social insect colony or a lek, the frequency of dominant individuals need only be one to make subordinate alternatives more advantageous, and the frequency of dominant behavior may only vary between one (when the superdominant position of queen or harem chief is filled) and zero (when the position becomes vacant). 4. Extremely dominating; controlling. Example: It's also important to note that we are attempting to identify the dominant and superdominant personality types as they relate to an individual's vital role on a particular team. Example: It is therefore extremely important to the holy-men to keep the worshippers permanently obedient to the superdominant figures, and this is done in several ways. 5. Controlling or enhancing the expression of another pair of genes or chromosomes. Example: If the collection of ten polymorphic loci contains both dominant and superdominant loci, the graph comprises the same line segment for any ratio of dominant and superdominant loci. Example: Suppose a “superdominant” Y chromosome arose that could not be feminized by X*. 6. Sufficiently large so as to control the blood flow to an area. Example: The RCA is dominant, but not superdominant, because the ST elevation in V 5-6 is a little smaller than 2 mm. Example: In this rare anomaly, a large “superdominant” right coronary artery crosses the crux of the heart, ascending the atrioventricular groove to perfuse the posterior and lateral wall of the heart. 7. Rising above the general level of the overstory. Example: The managed old-growth alternative would actively recruit an acceptable number of large snags over time by allowing superdominant leave trees to mature and convert to large snags. Example: A few large dominant or superdominant trees should be left as potential nest trees. 8. Comprising the winning strategy in all cases. Example: In decision-theoretical tenns, therefore, to believe in God is superdominant over disbelieving.
Word: superdominant Part of Speech: noun Etymology: From super- + dominant. 1. The sixth tone of the scale, immediately above the dominant. 2. A species that is present in disproportionately large numbers within an ecosystem. Example: A strategy for survival is needed to replace man's present role as an unrestricted superdominant of the biosphere, for this role is a strategy for self-defeat. Example: The earthworm Eisenia nordenskioldi is also a typical superdominant of tundra cenoses.
