Define g(k) as the quantity appearing in Waring's problem, then Euler conjectured that g(k)=2^k+|_(3/2)^k_|-2, where |_x_| is the floor function.

The general displacement of a rigid body (or coordinate frame) with one point fixed is a rotation about some axis. Furthermore, a rotation may be described in any basis using ...

A factorization algorithm which works by expressing N as a quadratic form in two different ways. Then N=a^2+b^2=c^2+d^2, (1) so a^2-c^2=d^2-b^2 (2) (a-c)(a+c)=(d-b)(d+b). (3) ...

Let f(x,y) be a homogeneous function of order n so that f(tx,ty)=t^nf(x,y). (1) Then define x^'=xt and y^'=yt. Then nt^(n-1)f(x,y) = ...

A number D that possesses no common divisor with a prime number p is either a quadratic residue or nonresidue of p, depending whether D^((p-1)/2) is congruent mod p to +/-1.

The intersection Ev of the Gergonne line and the Euler line. It has triangle center function alpha=(b(a-b+c)cosB+c(a+b-c)cosC-2a^2cosA)/(2a) and is Kimberling center X_(1375).

The sum of powers of even divisors of a number. It is the analog of the divisor function for even divisors only and is written sigma_k^((e))(n). It is given simply in terms ...

An even perfect number is perfect number that is even, i.e., an even number n whose sum of divisors (including n itself) equals n. All known perfect numbers are even, and ...

An event is a certain subset of a probability space. Events are therefore collections of outcomes on which probabilities have been assigned. Events are sometimes assumed to ...

A sequence {a_1,a_2,a_3,...} fulfils a given property eventually if it fulfils it from some point onward, or, more precisely, if the property is fulfilled by the subsequence ...
