Expressions Definition
Charles Hermite Charles Hermite (December 24, 1822 - January 14, 1901) was a French mathematician who did research on number theory, quadratic forms, invariant theory, orthogonal polynomials, elliptic functions, and algebra. Hermite polynomials, Hermite normal form, Hermitian operators, and cubic Hermite splines are named in his honor. (references)
Hermite (crater) Hermite is a lunar impact crater located along the northern lunar limb, close to the north pole of the Moon. It was first discovered in 1964. To the west is the Rozhdestvenskiy crater, and to the south are the Lovelace and Sylvester craters. From the Earth this crater is viewed nearly from the side, and it is illuminated by oblique sunlight. (references)
Hermite interpolation Hermite interpolation is a method closely related to the Newton divided difference method of interpolation in numerical analysis, that allows us to consider given derivatives at data points, as well as the data points themselves. (references)
Hermite polynomials (the physicists' Hermite polynomials). These two definitions are not exactly equivalent; either is a trivial rescaling of the other. These are Hermite polynomial sequences of different variances; see the material on variances below. (references)
Hermite spline In the mathematical subfield of numerical analysis a Hermite spline is a spline curve where each polynomial of the spline is in Hermite form. (references)
