The forward difference is a finite difference defined by Deltaa_n=a_(n+1)-a_n. (1) Higher order differences are obtained by repeated operations of the forward difference ...

Given three coins of possibly different sizes which are arranged so that each is tangent to the other two, find the coin which is tangent to the other three coins. The ...

If two intersections of each pair of three conics S_1, S_2, and S_3 lie on a conic S_0, then the lines joining the other two intersections of each pair are concurrent (Evelyn ...

Let (x_1,x_2) and (y_1,y_2) be two sets of complex numbers linearly independent over the rationals. Then the four exponential conjecture posits that at least one of ...

A diagram lemma which states that, given the above commutative diagram with exact rows, the following holds: 1. If alpha is surjective, and beta and delta are injective, then ...

Let n>=0 and alpha_1, alpha_2, ...be the positive roots of J_n(x)=0, where J_n(z) is a Bessel function of the first kind. An expansion of a function in the interval (0,1) in ...

Because the Legendre polynomials form a complete orthogonal system over the interval [-1,1] with respect to the weighting function w(x)=1, any function f(x) may be expanded ...

The n×n square matrix F_n with entries given by F_(jk)=e^(2piijk/n)=omega^(jk) (1) for j,k=0, 1, 2, ..., n-1, where i is the imaginary number i=sqrt(-1), and normalized by ...

Consider a string of length 2L plucked at the right end and fixed at the left. The functional form of this configuration is f(x)=x/(2L). (1) The components of the Fourier ...

The Fourier transform of a Gaussian function f(x)=e^(-ax^2) is given by F_x[e^(-ax^2)](k) = int_(-infty)^inftye^(-ax^2)e^(-2piikx)dx (1) = ...
