stands for “support”
I am guessing this refers to this notion of support I found on Wikipedia:
supp(f)={x∈Domain(f)|f(x)≠0}
Edit: fixed Definition.
It should be f(x)≠0. More generally, there is the notion of support from measure theory, which sometimes comes up, although in this post we only work with finite sets so it’s the same.
