From Gk. episteme "knowledge," from Ionic Gk. epistasthai "to understand," literally "overstand," from → epi- "over, near" + histasthai "to stand;" cognate with Pers. istâdan "to stand," → standard; PIE base *sta- "to stand."

Fr.: problème d'existence   

Math: The question of whether a → solution to a given → problem exists.

existence; → problem.

existence proof
  آوین ِ هستومندی، ~ هستی   
âvin-e hastumandi, ~ hasti

Fr.: preuve d'existence   

Math.: An → argument that establishes an → existence theorem.

existence; → proof.

existence theorem
  فربین ِ هستومندی، ~ هستی   
farbin-e hastumandi, ~ hasti

Fr.: théorème d'existence   

Math: A theorem that asserts the existence of at least one object, such as the → solution to a → problem or → equation.

existence; → theorem.

existent
  هستومند   
hastumand (#)

Fr.: existant   

Existing; having existence.

exist.

existential
  هستیال   
hastiyâl

Fr.: existentiel   

1) Of or relating to → existence, especially  human existence.
2) Philo.:  Pertaining to what exists, and is thus known by experience rather  than reason; empirical as opposed to theoretical.
3) Logic: Denoting or relating to a → formula or → proposition asserting the existence of at least one object fulfilling a given condition; containing an → existential quantifier.
4) Of or relating to → existentialism (Dictionary.com).

From L.L. existentialis, → existence, → -al.

Hastiyâl, from hasti, → existence, + -al a suffix of attributes forming adjectives that often become nouns, in this case preferred to -i because hasti ends in -i, → -al.

existential quantifier
  چنداگر ِ هستیال   
candâgar-e hastiyâl

Fr.: quantificateur existentiel   

A symbol of → predicate logic which expresses that the statements within its scope are → true for at least one instance of something. The symbol ∃ is used as the existential quantifier. Existential quantifiers are normally used in logic in → conjunction with → predicate symbols, which say something about a → variable or → constant, in this case the variable being quantified (→ quantify, → quantification).

existential; → quantifier.

existentialism
  هستیال‌باوری، هستیال‌گرایی   
hastiyâl-bâvari, hastiyâl-gerâyi

Fr.: existentialisme   

A philosophical attitude associated especially with Heidegger, Jaspers, Marcel, and  Sartre, and opposed to → rationalism and  → empiricism, that stresses the individual's  unique position as a self-determining agent responsible for the authenticity of his or  her choices (Dictionary.com).

existential; → -ism.

existentialist
  هستیال‌باور، هستیال‌گرا

Fr.: existentialiste   

An advocate of → existentialism.

existential; → -ist.

durâ-ye kahkešân-markazi

Fr.: distance galactocentrique   

The distance from the center of a galaxy.

galactocentric; → distance.

Gaussian distribution
  واباژش ِ گاؤسی

giant magnetoresistance (GMR)
  مغنات-ایستادگی ِ کلان، ایستادگی ِ مغناتیسی ِ ~   
meqnât-istâdegi-ye kalân, istâdegi-ye meqnâtisi-ye ~

Fr.: magnétorésistance géante   

A quantum mechanical phenomenon where the resistance of certain materials drops dramatically upon application of a magnetic field in certain structures composed of alternating layers of magnetic and nonmagnetic metals. The basis of the GMR is the dependence of the electrical resistivity of electrons in a magnetic metal on the direction of the electron spin, either parallel or anti-parallel to the magnetic moment of the layers. The 2007 Nobel Prize in physics was awarded to the French physicist Albert Fert (1938-) and German physicist Peter Grünberg (1939-) for the discovery of GMR.
