On an algebraic curve, the sum of the number of coincidences at a noncuspidal point C is the sum of the orders of the infinitesimal distances from a nearby point P to the ...

If there is a (nu,nu^') correspondence between two curves of curve genus p and p^' and the number of branch points properly counted are beta and beta^', then ...

A solution zeta_k=e^(2piik/d) to the cyclotomic equation x^d=1. The de Moivre numbers give the coordinates in the complex plane of the polygon vertices of a regular polygon ...

The quintic equation x^5+ax^3+1/5a^2x+b=0 (1) is sometimes known as de Moivre's quintic (Spearman and Williams 1994). It has solutions x_j=omega^ju_1+omega^(4j)u_2 (2) for ...

The letter O is used for a number of different purposes in mathematics. The double-struck O is sometimes used to represent octonions. The symbols O(x) (sometimes called the ...

A p-elementary subgroup of a finite group G is a subgroup H which is the group direct product H=C_n×P, where P is a p-group, C_n is a cyclic group, and p does not divide n.

Diagonalize a form over the rationals to diag[p^a·A,p^b·B,...], where all the entries are integers and A, B, ... are relatively prime to p. Then the p-signature of the form ...

Let a group G have a group presentation G=<x_1,...,x_n|r_j(x_1,...,x_n),j in J> so that G=F/R, where F is the free group with basis {x_1,...,x_n} and R is the normal subgroup ...

In general, polynomial equations higher than fourth degree are incapable of algebraic solution in terms of a finite number of additions, subtractions, multiplications, ...

An abstract vector space of dimension n over a field k is the set of all formal expressions a_1v_1+a_2v_2+...+a_nv_n, (1) where {v_1,v_2,...,v_n} is a given set of n objects ...
