An almost perfect number, also known as a least deficient or slightly defective (Singh 1997) number, is a positive integer n for which the divisor function satisfies ...

A plane tiling is said to be isohedral if the symmetry group of the tiling acts transitively on the tiles, and n-isohedral if the tiles fall into n orbits under the action of ...

An antisymmetric (also called alternating) tensor is a tensor which changes sign when two indices are switched. For example, a tensor A^(x_1,...,x_n) such that ...

Given a number field K, a Galois extension field L, and prime ideals p of K and P of L unramified over p, there exists a unique element sigma=((L/K),P) of the Galois group ...

Let phi:M->M be a C^1 diffeomorphism on a compact Riemannian manifold M. Then phi satisfies Axiom A if the nonwandering set Omega(phi) of phi is hyperbolic and the periodic ...

The longstanding conjecture that the nonimaginary solutions E_n of zeta(1/2+iE_n)=0, (1) where zeta(z) is the Riemann zeta function, are the eigenvalues of an "appropriate" ...

In Robert Louis Stevenson's "bottle imp paradox," you are offered the opportunity to buy, for whatever price you wish, a bottle containing a genie who will fulfill your every ...

For a general quadrilateral with sides of length a, b, c, and d, the area K is given by (1) where s=1/2(a+b+c+d) (2) is the semiperimeter, A is the angle between a and d, and ...

A Brocard line is a line from any of the vertices A_i of a triangle DeltaA_1A_2A_3 to the first Omega or second Omega^' Brocard point. Let the angle at a vertex A_i also be ...

The midpoint of the first and second Brocard points Omega and Omega^'. It has equivalent triangle center functions alpha = a(b^2+c^2) (1) alpha = sin(A+omega), (2) where ...
