Gammai

Gammai is not a standard, universally defined term in English-language technical literature. More often, it appears as a notation in which gamma is indexed by i (written as gamma_i in math or science) but reduced to the unformatted form gammai in plain text. In practice, gammai usually represents a member of a family of quantities indexed by i, rather than a single established object.

In mathematics and statistics, gamma_i commonly denotes the i-th component of a vector named gamma or a

In physics and engineering, gamma_i may label a set of related factors, such as damping coefficients, growth

If you encounter the term gammai without subscript formatting, it is often safe to interpret it as
