For an arbitrary not identically constant polynomial, the zeros of its derivatives lie in the smallest convex polygon containing the zeros of the original polynomial.

AW, AB, and AY in the above figure are in a harmonic range.

There exists an integer N such that every string in the look and say sequence "decays" in at most N days to a compound of "common" and "transuranic elements." The table below ...

Let f be an integer polynomial. The f can be factored into a product of two polynomials of lower degree with rational coefficients iff it can be factored into a product of ...

The zeros of the derivative P^'(z) of a polynomial P(z) that are not multiple zeros of P(z) are the positions of equilibrium in the field of force due to unit particles ...

If f is a continuous real-valued function on [a,b] and if any epsilon>0 is given, then there exists a polynomial p on [a,b] such that |f(x)-P(x)|<epsilon for all x in [a,b]. ...

Starting with a triangle, draw a circle touching two sides. Then draw a circle tangent to this circle and two other sides. Continue in the same direction. The result is a ...

If a function phi:(0,infty)->(0,infty) satisfies 1. ln[phi(x)] is convex, 2. phi(x+1)=xphi(x) for all x>0, and 3. phi(1)=1, then phi(x) is the gamma function Gamma(x). ...

The number of "prime" boxes is always finite, where a set of boxes is prime if it cannot be built up from one or more given configurations of boxes.

Let R be a ring. If phi:R->S is a ring homomorphism, then Ker(phi) is an ideal of R, phi(R) is a subring of S, and R/Ker(phi)=phi(R).
