Symbols:G
giga-
- $\mathrm G$
The Système Internationale d'Unités symbol for the metric scaling prefix giga, denoting $10^{\, 9 }$, is $\mathrm { G }$.
Its $\LaTeX$ code is \mathrm {G} .
Group
- $G$
Used to denote a general group.
In this context, frequently seen in the compound symbol $\struct {G, \circ}$ where $\circ$ represents an arbitrary binary operation.
The $\LaTeX$ code for \(\struct {G, \circ}\) is \struct {G, \circ} .
Gram
- $\mathrm g$
The symbol for the gram is $\mathrm g$.
The $\LaTeX$ code for \(\mathrm g\) is \mathrm g .
Local Gravitational Constant
- $g$
The force exerted on a body at (or near) the surface of the Earth under the influence of the gravitational field given rise to by the Earth.
Its $\LaTeX$ code is g .
Function
- $\map g x$
The letter $g$, along with $f$ and $h$, is frequently used to denote a general mapping or function.
The $\LaTeX$ code for \(\map {g} {x}\) is \map {g} {x} .
Geometric Distribution
- $X \sim \Geometric p$
$X$ has the geometric distribution with parameter $p$.
The $\LaTeX$ code for \(X \sim \Geometric {p}\) is X \sim \Geometric {p} .
Shifted Geometric Distribution
- $X \sim \ShiftedGeometric p$
$X$ has the shifted geometric distribution with parameter $p$.
The $\LaTeX$ code for \(X \sim \ShiftedGeometric {p}\) is X \sim \ShiftedGeometric {p} .
Generating Function
- $\map {G_A} z$
Let $A = \sequence {a_n}$ be a sequence in $\R$.
Then $\ds \map {G_A} z = \sum_{n \mathop \ge 0} a_n z^n$ is called the generating function for the sequence $A$.
The $\LaTeX$ code for \(\map {G_A} z\) is \map {G_A} z .
gcd
- $\gcd$
Used to denote the greatest common divisor of a pair of numbers.
For example:
- $\gcd \set {6, 10} = 2$
The $\LaTeX$ code for \(\gcd\) is \gcd .
glb
- $\map {\mathrm {glb} } T$ or $\map {\mathrm {g.l.b.} } T$
Used to denote the greatest lower bound of a subset $T$ of an ordered structure $\struct {S, \preceq}$.
The same as $\map \inf T$, that is, infimum.
The $\LaTeX$ code for \(\map {\mathrm {glb} } T\) is \map {\mathrm {glb} } T .
The $\LaTeX$ code for \(\map {\mathrm {g.l.b.} } T\) is \map {\mathrm {g.l.b.} } T .
