2. mathematicsDisplaying a generalization of sofic that applies to finite-dimensional Hilbert spaces.

   Indeed, by a profound result of E. Kirchberg, F. Radulescu and N. Ozawa, a group is hyperlinear if and only if it satisfies the Connes embedding conjecture for groups, that is, if and only if its von Neumann algebra embeds into an ultrapower of the hyperfinite II₁ factor R.

3. mathematicsBoth additive and homogeneous for hyperreal scalars.

   We say that a hyperlinear fuzzy function, f say, strictly separates two fuzzy subsets A and B iff the fuzzy hyperplane determined by f and some point x₀ ϵ X strictly separates A and B

4. mathematicsConverging very quickly to a limit so that the ratio of adjacent terms tends to zero.

   We see that hyperlinear convergence doesn't necessarily imply that the series is easy to evaluate for all values of x.

5. curve fittingmathematicsIncreasing exponentially or as a higher polynomial power.

   It has been shown in [3] that, at low excitation intensities, the dependence of the emission intensity from a single crystal of AgBr(I) on the excitation intensity is linear while, at high excitation intensities, it becomes hyperlinear.
