Let a patch be given by the map x:U->R^n, where U is an open subset of R^2, or more generally by x:A->R^n, where A is any subset of R^2. Then x(U) (or more generally, x(A)) ...

The eigenvalues of a matrix A are called its spectrum, and are denoted lambda(A). If lambda(A)={lambda_1,...,lambda_n}, then the determinant of A is given by ...

The dual of the rhombidodecadodecahedron U_(38) and Wenninger dual W_(76).

Let f and g be nonnegative and continuous functions on the closed interval [a,b], then the solid of revolution obtained by rotating the curves f(x) and g(x) about the x-axis ...

If the period of a repeating decimal for a/p, where p is prime and a/p is a reduced fraction, has an even number of digits, then dividing the repeating portion into halves ...

Multisection of a mathematical quantity or figure is division of it into a number of (usually) equal parts. Division of a quantity into two equal parts is known as bisection, ...

A set-like object in which order is ignored, but multiplicity is explicitly significant. Therefore, multisets {1,2,3} and {2,1,3} are equivalent, but {1,1,2,3} and {1,2,3} ...

The term negative likelihood ratio is also used (especially in medicine) to test nonnested complementary hypotheses as follows, NLR = ([false negative rate])/([true negative ...

A negative matrix is a real or integer matrix (a)_(ij) for which each matrix element is a negative number, i.e., a_(ij)<0 for all i, j. Negative matrices are therefore a ...

There are a number of attractive polyhedron compounds consisting of nine octahedra. The compound illustrated above can be constructed as the dual of cube 9-compound. The ...
