A cubic equation is an equation involving a cubic polynomial, i.e., one of the form a_3x^3+a_2x^2+a_1x+a_0=0. Since a_3!=0 (or else the polynomial would be quadratic and not ...

The radial curve of the cycloid with parametric equations x = a(t-sint) (1) y = a(1-cost) (2) is the circle x_r = x_0+2asint (3) y_r = -2a+y_0+2acost. (4)

Disconnectivities are mathematical entities which stand in the way of a space being contractible (i.e., shrunk to a point, where the shrinking takes place inside the space ...

Let D be a set of positive numbers containing 1, then the D-distance graph X(D) on a nonempty subset X of Euclidean space is the graph with vertex set X and edge set ...

The first quadratic nonresidue mod p of a number is always less than 3(lnp)^2/2 (Wedeniwski 2001).

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

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 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) = ...

A balanced incomplete block design (v, k, lambda, r, b) exists only for b>=v (or, equivalently, r>=k).

Let A be a sum of squares of n independent normal standardized variates X_i, and suppose A=B+C where B is a quadratic form in the x_i, distributed as chi-squared with h ...
