The sum of the absolute squares of the spherical harmonics Y_l^m(theta,phi) over all values of m is sum_(m=-l)^l|Y_l^m(theta,phi)|^2=(2l+1)/(4pi). (1) The double sum over m ...

A spheroidal harmonic is a special case of an ellipsoidal harmonic that satisfies the differential equation d/(dx)[(1-x^2)(dS)/(dx)]+(lambda-c^2x^2-(m^2)/(1-x^2))S=0 on the ...

The 6-polyiamond illustrated above, named for its resemblance to the Great Sphinx of Egypt.

A spigot algorithm is an algorithm which generates digits of a quantity one at a time without using or requiring previously computed digits. Amazingly, spigot algorithms are ...

A fixed point for which the eigenvalues are complex conjugates.

A polynomial p(x)=sumc_ix^i is said to split over a field K if p(x)=aproduct_(i)(x-alpha_i) where a and alpha_i are in K. Then the polynomial is said to split into linear ...

A link L is said to be splittable if a plane can be embedded in R^3 such that the plane separates one or more components of L from other components of L and the plane is ...

A method for computing an Egyptian fraction. This method always terminates (Beeckmans 1993).

A three-dimensional knot spun about a plane in four dimensions. Unlike suspended knots, spun knots are smoothly embedded at the poles.

An n×n array is called a square array. Considered as a matrix, a square array is called a square matrix.
