Consider the sum (1) where the x_js are nonnegative and the denominators are positive. Shapiro (1954) asked if f_n(x_1,x_2,...,x_n)>=1/2n (2) for all n. It turns out ...

A singular integral is an integral whose integrand reaches an infinite value at one or more points in the domain of integration. Even so, such integrals can converge, in ...

A mechanical device consisting of a sliding portion and a fixed case, each marked with logarithmic axes. By lining up the ticks, it is possible to do multiplication by taking ...

The modification of a set of data to make it smooth and nearly continuous and remove or diminish outlying points.

The expansion of the two sides of a sum equality in terms of polynomials in x^m and y^k, followed by closed form summation in terms of x and y. For an example of the ...

The square gyrobicupola is a convex equilateral solid that is Johnson solid J_(29). The unit square gyrobicupola has volume V=2+4/3sqrt(2) (1) and Dehn invariant D = 24<3>_2 ...

The square orthobicupola is a convex equilateral solid that is Johnson solid J_(28). The unit square orthobicupola has volume V=2+4/3sqrt(2) (1) and Dehn invariant D = ...

Define the minimal bounding rectangle as the smallest rectangle containing a given lattice polygon. If the perimeter of the lattice polygon is equal to that of its minimal ...

Doob (1996) defines a stochastic process as a family of random variables {x(t,-),t in J} from some probability space (S,S,P) into a state space (S^',S^'). Here, J is the ...

The supersphere is the algebraic surface that is the special case of the superellipse with a=b=c. It has equation |x/a|^n+|y/a|^n+|z/a|^n=1 (1) or |x|^n+|y|^n+|z|^n=a^n (2) ...
