As far as programmers, forget about the names. Does every C source file that uses pointer arithmetic include an explanation of how it works? Nope. They just use it and assume the reader understands it or is clever enough to ask for help or read up on the language.

Mathematical writing is similar. At some point you have to assume an audience, which may be more or less mathematically literate. If you're writing for graduate students or experts in a domain, you don't include a tutorial and description of literally every term, you can assume they're familiar with the domain jargon (just like C programmers can assume that others who read their program understand pointers and other program elements). Whenever something is being used that is unique to the context, a definition is typically provided, at least if the writer is halfway decent.

If the audience is assumed to be less mathematically literate (like a Calculus course textbook audience), then more terms will be defined (chapter 1 of most Calculus books include a definition of "function"). But a paper on some Calculus topic shouldn't have to define the integral, it should be able to use it because the audience will be expected to understand Calculus.
