Eliminate each knot crossing by connecting each of the strands coming into the crossing to the adjacent strand leaving the crossing. The resulting strands no longer cross but ...

For K a given knot in S^3, choose a Seifert surface M^2 in S^3 for K and a bicollar M^^×[-1,1] in S^3-K. If x in H_1(M^^) is represented by a 1-cycle in M^^, let x^+ denote ...

A matrix A for which A^(H)=A^(T)^_=A, where the conjugate transpose is denoted A^(H), A^(T) is the transpose, and z^_ is the complex conjugate. If a matrix is self-adjoint, ...

A 10-digit number satisfying the following property. Number the digits 0 to 9, and let digit n be the number of ns in the number. There is exactly one such number: 6210001000.

Let the residue from Pépin's theorem be R_n=3^((F_n-1)/2) (mod F_n), where F_n is a Fermat number. Selfridge and Hurwitz use R_n (mod 2^(35)-1,2^(36),2^(36)-1). A ...

There exist infinitely many n>0 with p_n^2>p_(n-i)p_(n+i) for all i<n, where p_n is the nth prime. Also, there exist infinitely many n>0 such that 2p_n<p_(n-i)+p_(n+i) for ...

A fractional integral of order 1/2. The semi-integral of t^lambda is given by D^(-1/2)t^lambda=(t^(lambda+1/2)Gamma(lambda+1))/(Gamma(lambda+3/2)), so the semi-integral of ...

X subset= R^n is semianalytic if, for all x in R^n, there is an open neighborhood U of x such that X intersection U is a finite Boolean combination of sets {x^_ in ...

The symbol ; given special meanings in several mathematics contexts, the most common of which is the covariant derivative.

A fractional derivative of order 1/2. The semiderivative of t^lambda is given by D^(1/2)t^lambda=(t^(lambda-1/2)Gamma(lambda+1))/(Gamma(lambda+1/2)), so the semiderivative of ...
