The necker cube is an illusion in which a two-dimensional drawing of an array of cubes appears to simultaneously protrude from and intrude into the page. A Necker cube ...

Given an arrangement of points, a line containing just two of them is called an ordinary line. Dirac (1951) conjectured that every sufficiently set of n noncollinear points ...

pi has decimal expansion given by pi=3.141592653589793238462643383279502884197... (1) (OEIS A000796). The following table summarizes some record computations of the digits of ...

The mean tetrahedron volume of a tetrahedron with vertices chosen at random inside another tetrahedron of unit volume is given by V^_ = (13)/(720)-(pi^2)/(15015) (1) = ...

The golden gnomon is the obtuse isosceles triangle whose ratio of side to base lengths is given by 1/phi=phi-1, where phi is the golden ratio. Such a triangle has angles of ...

For every ring containing p spheres, there exists a ring of q spheres, each touching each of the p spheres, where 1/p+1/q=1/2, (1) which can also be written (p-2)(q-2)=4. (2) ...

A power floor prime sequence is a sequence of prime numbers {|_theta^n_|}_n, where |_x_| is the floor function and theta>1 is real number. It is unknown if, though extremely ...

Expanding the Riemann zeta function about z=1 gives zeta(z)=1/(z-1)+sum_(n=0)^infty((-1)^n)/(n!)gamma_n(z-1)^n (1) (Havil 2003, p. 118), where the constants ...

A tetramagic cube is a magic cube that remains magic when all its numbers are squared, cubed, and taken to the fourth power. Only two tetramagic cubes are known, and both ...

A trimagic cube is a magic cube that remains magic when all its numbers are both squared and cubed. Only two trimagic cubes are known. The first trimagic cube was found by C. ...
