Separation of variables is a method of solving ordinary and partial differential equations. For an ordinary differential equation (dy)/(dx)=g(x)f(y), (1) where f(y)is nonzero ...

The angles S_1=A_1/2 and S_2=A_2/2 obtained from solving sin(x+omega)=2sinomega (1) for x=A_1,A_2, where omega is the Brocard angle. The half-angles A_1 and A_2 are given by ...

A relation < is a strict order on a set S if it is 1. Irreflexive: a<a does not hold for any a in S. 2. Asymmetric: if a<b, then b<a does not hold. 3. Transitive: a<b and b<c ...

A surface in 3-space can be parameterized by two variables (or coordinates) u and v such that x = x(u,v) (1) y = y(u,v) (2) z = z(u,v). (3) If a surface is parameterized as ...

A tetractys, also called a tetraktys or decad, is an arrangement of 10 points in the form of a triangle with 1 point in the first row, two in the second, three in the third, ...

A number of attractive 18-compounds of the regular tetrahedron can be constructed. The compound illustrated above will be implemented in a future version of the Wolfram ...

A transversal design TD_lambda(k,n) of order n, block size k, and index lambda is a triple (V, G, B) such that 1. V is a set of kn elements, 2. G is a partition of V into k ...

The ratio X_1/X_2 of uniform variates X_1 and X_2 on the interval [0,1] can be found directly as P_(X_1/X_2)(u) = int_0^1int_0^1delta((x_1)/(x_2)-u)dx_1dx_2 (1) = ...

A uniquely complemented lattice is a complemented lattice (L, ^ , v ,0,1,^') that satisfies ( forall x in L)( forall y in L)[(x ^ y=0) ^ (x v y=1)]=>y=x^'. The class of ...

The base-20 notational system for representing real numbers. The digits used to represent numbers using vigesimal notation are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F, ...
