Invariance :: Invariance (n.) The property of remaining invariable under prescribed or implied conditions.

Mean :: Mean (a.) Average; having an intermediate value between two extremes, or between the several successive values of a variable quantity during one cycle of variation; as, mean distance; mean motion; mean solar day..

Necessitarianism :: Necessitarianism (n.) The doctrine of philosophical necessity; the doctrine that results follow by invariable sequence from causes, and esp. that the will is not free, but that human actions and choices result inevitably from motives; deteminism..

Protean :: Protean (a.) Exceedingly variable; readily assuming different shapes or forms; as, an amoeba is a protean animalcule..

Inconsistency :: Inconsistency (n.) Want of stability or uniformity; unsteadiness; changeableness; variableness.

Cam :: Cam (n.) A turning or sliding piece which, by the shape of its periphery or face, or a groove in its surface, imparts variable or intermittent motion to, or receives such motion from, a rod, lever, or block brought into sliding or rolling contact with it..

Quantic :: Quantic (n.) A homogeneous algebraic function of two or more variables, in general containing only positive integral powers of the variables, and called quadric, cubic, quartic, etc., according as it is of the second, third, fourth, fifth, or a higher degree. These are further called binary, ternary, quaternary, etc., according as they contain two, three, four, or more variables; thus, the quantic / is a binary cubic..

Eliminant :: Eliminant (n.) The result of eliminating n variables between n homogeneous equations of any degree; -- called also resultant.

Unvariable :: Unvariable (a.) Invariable.

Variableness :: Variableness (n.) The quality or state of being variable; variability.

Fluxion :: Fluxion (n.) The infinitely small increase or decrease of a variable or flowing quantity in a certain infinitely small and constant period of time; the rate of variation of a fluent; an incerement; a differential.

Spiracle :: Spiracle (n.) One of the external openings communicating with the air tubes or tracheae of insects, myriapods, and arachnids. They are variable in number, and are usually situated on the sides of the thorax and abdomen, a pair to a segment. These openings are usually elliptical, and capable of being closed. See Illust. under Coleoptera..

Covariant :: Covariant (n.) A function involving the coefficients and the variables of a quantic, and such that when the quantic is lineally transformed the same function of the new variables and coefficients shall be equal to the old function multiplied by a factor. An invariant is a like function involving only the coefficients of the quantic..
