The order ideal in Lambda, the ring of integral laurent polynomials, associated with an Alexander matrix for a knot K. Any generator of a principal Alexander ideal is called ...

Any tangle obtained by additions and multiplications of rational tangles (Adams 1994).

A solution to a problem that can be written in "closed form" in terms of known functions, constants, etc., is often called an analytic solution. Note that this use of the ...

A number which can be represented both in the form x_0^2-Dy_0^2 and in the form Dx_1^2-y_1^2. This is only possible when the Pell equation x^2-Dy^2=-1 (1) is solvable. Then ...

If P is a point on the circumcircle of a reference triangle, then the line PP^(-1), where P^(-1) is the isogonal conjugate of P, is called the antipedal line of P. It is a ...

The arithmetic-geometric mean agm(a,b) of two numbers a and b (often also written AGM(a,b) or M(a,b)) is defined by starting with a_0=a and b_0=b, then iterating a_(n+1) = ...

The augmented tridiminished icosahedron is Johnson solid J_(64), which is formed from augmentation of the triangular face adjecent to all three hexagons of the tridiminished ...

The baby monster group, also known as Fischer's baby monster group, is the second-largest sporadic group. It is denoted B and has group order |B| = ...

The property of certain algorithms that accurate answers are returned for well-conditioned problems, and the inaccuracy of the answers returned for ill-conditioned problems ...

A generalization of the Bulirsch-Stoer algorithm for solving ordinary differential equations.
