definition

ternary mekso operator: p-adic valuation; outputs (positive) infinity if x1 = 0 and, else, outputs sup(Set(k : k is a nonnegative integer, and MATH

$((1 - x_3)x_2 + x_3 p_{x_2})^k$

((1 - x3)x2 + x3px2)k divides x1)), where pn is the nth prime (such that p1 = 2).

notes

The terbri order here was defined in analogy to "de'o". Normally, x1 should be a rational number, and x2 should be a positive integer; some generalizations may be possible, though. x3 is either 0 xor 1, and indicates/toggles between modes: x3 = 0 yields the x2-adic valuation (even for nonprime x2); x3 = 1 yields the px2-adic valuation. MATH

$x_2 = 1, x_3 = 0$

x2 = 1, x3 = 0 yields positive infinity for any x1 which is within the domain. If x1 = n/m and is a rational noninteger number such that gcd(n, m) = 1, then pau'au MATH

$(x_1, x_2, x_3) =$

(x1, x2, x3) = pau'au MATH

$(n, x_2, x_3) -$

(n, x2, x3) - pau'au MATH

$(m, x_2, x_3)$

(m, x2, x3). See also: "fei'i", "pi'ei'oi". This word is often equivalent to or closely related to "pei'e'a" (which is, in some ways, more general but also is less flexible with respect to its input).
