An edge of a graph is said to be pendant if one of its vertices is a pendant vertex.

A vertex of a graph is said to be pendant if its neighborhood contains exactly one vertex.

The term perfect square is used to refer to a square number, a perfect square dissection, or a factorable quadratic polynomial of the form a^2+/-2ab+b^2=(a+/-b)^2.

If (X,x) and (Y,y) are pointed spaces, a pointed map is a continuous map F:X->Y with the additional requirement that F(x)=y.

rho_n(nu,x)=((1+nu-n)_n)/(sqrt(n!x^n))_1F_1(-n;1+nu-n;x), where (a)_n is a Pochhammer symbol and _1F_1(a;b;z) is a confluent hypergeometric function of the first kind.

The homeomorphic image of a so-called "complete separable" metric space. The continuous image of a Polish space is called a Souslin set.

Polycairos are polyforms obtained from the Cairo tessellation, illustrated above. The numbers of polycairos with n=1, 2, ... components are 1, 2, 5, 17, 55, 206, 781, 3099, ...

The upper horizontal line segment in the above figure appears to be longer than the lower line segment despite the fact that both are the same length.

A positive integer n is kth powerfree if there is no number d such that d^k|n (d^k divides n), i.e., there are no kth powers or higher in the prime factorization of n. A ...

A primality test is a test to determine whether or not a given number is prime, as opposed to actually decomposing the number into its constituent prime factors (which is ...
