Values one step outside the hinges are called inner fences, and values two steps outside the hinges are called outer fences. Tukey calls values outside the outer fences far ...

A partial order defined by (i-1, i), (i+1, i) for odd i.

A number of the form 2^n-1 obtained by setting x=1 in a Fermat-Lucas polynomial, more commonly known as a Mersenne number.

The w-polynomials obtained by setting p(x)=3x and q(x)=-2 in the Lucas polynomial sequence. Setting f_n(1)=f_n (1) give a Fermat-Lucas number. The first few Fermat-Lucas ...

The compositeness test consisting of the application of Fermat's little theorem.

A plane curve of the form y=x^n. For n>0, the curve is a generalized parabola; for n<0 it is a generalized hyperbola.

The only whole number solution to the Diophantine equation y^3=x^2+2 is y=3, x=+/-5. This theorem was offered as a problem by Fermat, who suppressed his own proof.

The Diophantine equation x^n+y^n=z^n. The assertion that this equation has no nontrivial solutions for n>2 has a long and fascinating history and is known as Fermat's last ...

The W-polynomials obtained by setting p(x)=3x and q(x)=-2 in the Lucas polynomial sequence. The first few Fermat polynomials are F_1(x) = 1 (1) F_2(x) = 3x (2) F_3(x) = ...

The probability that two events will both happen is hk, where h is the probability that the first event will happen, and k is the probability that the second event will ...
