Li and Yorke (1975) proved that any one-dimensional system which exhibits a regular cycle of period three will also display regular cycles of every other length as well as ...

A node in a graph for which the graph eccentricity equals the graph diameter (Harary 1994, p. 41).

One petabyte is 10^(15) bytes. Unfortunately, the term is sometimes also used to mean 2^(50)=1024^5 bytes. However, the latter usage is deprecated, and the term pebibyte is ...

The motion along a phase curve as a function of time (Tabor 1989, p. 14).

For a function with 2 degrees of freedom, the 2-dimensional phase space that is accessible to the function or object is called its phase plane.

For a system of n first-order ordinary differential equations (or more generally, Pfaffian forms), the 2n-dimensional space consisting of the possible values of ...

For every k>1, there exist only finite many pairs of powers (p,p^') with p and p^' natural numbers and k=p^'-p.

The 4-polyhex illustrated above.

Consider n intersecting ellipses. The maximal number of regions into which these divide the plane are N(n)=2n^2-2n+2=2(n^2-n+1), giving values for n=1, 2, ... of 2, 6, 14, ...

The maximal number of regions into which n lines divide a plane are N(n)=1/2(n^2+n+2) which, for n=1, 2, ... gives 2, 4, 7, 11, 16, 22, ... (OEIS A000124), the same maximal ...
