-# I know nothing about this equation. I'm just rewriting it so dark-mode users can see it properly

To be pedantic, this is not an equation, but an expression. (No equality sign)
Also give context
No one is going to know what the meaning of the names or subscripts are, except say the sum and max notation.
To put it differently, kindly share where this arose and or give more context
