meromorphic
Part of speech: adj
Morphological type: derivation
Topics: complex-analysis
mathematics
sciences
Etymology: From mero- + -morphic.
Base: mero
Inflected forms:
Senses:
gloss: That is the ratio of two holomorphic functions (and so possibly infinite at a discrete set of points).
pos: adj
tags: not-comparable
examples: Normal families of meromorphic functions are most naturally studied using the spherical metric (§1.2), an approach initiated by Ostrowski [1926]. Some results for meromorphic functions, such as the FNT, are immediate extensions from the analytic case, whereas others, such as Landau's or Julia's theorem are set in a much broader context than their analytic counterparts. Normality criteria pertinent to families of meromorphic functions, such as Marty's theorem, have not yet been encountered.
Note that such a transformation is holomorphic at the origin, but is essentially singular at infinity. However, since T(z) commutes with A(z), the transformed system has coefficient matrix A(z)-zq'(z)I and hence is again meromorphic at infinity.
A point p#92;inP¹ is singular for #92;textstyle#92;frac#123;d#125;#123;dz#125;-A if the equation cannot be made regular at p with a local meromorphic transformation.

pos: adj
tags: not-comparable
examples: 1998, Stefan-M. Heinemann, Julia Sets in Cⁿ, Hartje Kriete, Progress in Holomorphic Dynamics, Addison Wesley Longman, page 159,
The iteration of holomorphic maps of one variable is one of the most lively fields of current mathematical research. Since its beginning in the twenties of this century, the theory of holomorphic endomorphisms of the Riemann sphere (= rational functions) has become well developed.
1998, Robert Friedman, Algebraic Surfaces and Holomorphic Vector Bundles, Springer, page 303,
A holomorphic 1-form on X is closed, and so
0=dη₁=df and η₂.
The theory of holomorphic dynamical systems is a subject of increasing interest in mathematics, both for its challenging problems and for its connections with other branches of pure and applied mathematics. A holomorphic dynamical system is the datum of a complex variety and a holomorphic object (such as a self-map or a vector field) acting on it.

From ortho- + pyroxene.
Inflected forms:
form: orthopyroxenes
pos: noun
tags: plural
Senses:
gloss: Any pyroxene that forms orthorhombic crystals.
pos: noun
examples: Biotite from lava flows is invariably rimmed or totally replaced by an exceedingly fine-grained, almost isotropic intergrowth of K-feldspar, orthopyroxene, cordierite and ilmenite, probably as a result of dehydration of the magma on eruption. Cordierite and orthopyroxene (5% each) occur as euhedral phenocrysts 1 to 2 mm in diameter, but cordierite can be up to 5 mm across and occur as anhedral ovoids.
The meteorite contains abundant, distinct to poorly defined chondrules (about 40 volume %). They are enclosed in a recrystallised, heavily iron-stained, but coherent matrix of irregular fragments of olivine and orthopyroxene, together with fragmented chrondrules and small grains and interstitial areas of oligoclase.
However, the relatively low Al₂O₃ content of the co-existing orthopyroxenes (2.2 wt%) is not consistent with an upper mantle origin (Binns et al. 1970) and therefore probably crystallised at crustal pressures.
