Let P be a prime ideal in D_m not containing m. Then (Phi(P))=P^(sumtsigma_t^(-1)), where the sum is over all 1<=t<m which are relatively prime to m. Here D_m is the ring of ...

An infinite sequence {a_i} of positive integers is called strongly independent if any relation sumepsilon_ia_i, with epsilon_i=0, +/-1, or +/-2 and epsilon_i=0 except ...

A subring of a ring R is a subgroup of R that is closed under multiplication.

A subsequence of {a} is a sequence {b} defined by b_k=a_(n_k), where n_1<n_2<... is an increasing sequence of indices (D'Angelo and West 2000). For example, the prime numbers ...

Let M be an oriented regular surface in R^3 with normal N. Then the support function of M is the function h:M->R defined by h(p)=p·N(p).

A parallel of a surface of revolution is the intersection of the surface with a plane orthogonal to the axis of revolution.

The symbol ∼ used to denote similarity, equivalence relations, or asymptosy.

A ruled surface M is a tangent developable of a curve y if M can be parameterized by x(u,v)=y(u)+vy^'(u). A tangent developable is a developable surface.

The function defined by T_n(x)=((-1)^(n-1))/(sqrt(n!))Z^((n-1))(x), where Z(x)=1/(sqrt(2pi))e^(-x^2/2) and Z^((k))(x) is the kth derivative of Z(x).

A special case of a quartic Kummer surface.
