A transformation of an algebraic curve which is of the same type as its inverse. A Jonquière's transformation is always factorable.

Given a matrix A, a Jordan basis satisfies Ab_(i,1)=lambda_ib_(i,1) and Ab_(i,j)=lambda_ib_(i,j)+b_(i,j-1), and provides the means by which any complex matrix A can be ...

Let V!=(0) be a finite dimensional vector space over the complex numbers, and let A be a linear operator on V. Then V can be expressed as a direct sum of cyclic subspaces.

The identity (xy)x^2=x(yx^2) satisfied by elements x and y in a Jordan algebra.

For 0<=x<=pi/2, 2/pix<=sinx<=x.

A primitive subgroup of the symmetric group S_n is equal to either the alternating group A_n or S_n whenever it contains at least one permutation which is a q-cycle for some ...

A point of discontinuity, also called a leap.

A geodesic triangle with oriented boundary yields a curve which is piecewise differentiable. Furthermore, the tangent vector varies continuously at all but the three corner ...

A bistable eight-sided polyhedron discovered by Wunderlich and Schwabe (1986).

A framework is called "just rigid" if it is rigid, but ceases to be so when any single bar is removed. Lamb (1928, pp. 93-94) proved that a necessary (but not sufficient) ...
