Adding a damping force proportional to x^. to the equation of simple harmonic motion, the first derivative of x with respect to time, the equation of motion for damped simple ...

Deck transformations, also called covering transformations, are defined for any cover p:A->X. They act on A by homeomorphisms which preserve the projection p. Deck ...

The Dejter graph is a weakly regular graph on 112 vertices and 336 edges with regular paremeters (nu,k,lambda,mu)=(112,6,0,(0,1,2)). It can be obtained by deleting a copy of ...

The deltoidal hexecontahedron is the 60-faced dual polyhedron of the small rhombicosidodecahedron A_5. It is sometimes also called the trapezoidal hexecontahedron (Holden ...

The deltoidal icositetrahedron is the 24-faced dual polyhedron of the small rhombicuboctahedron A_6 and Wenninger dual W_(13). It is also called the trapezoidal ...

A special case of Apollonius' problem requiring the determination of a circle touching three mutually tangent circles (also called the kissing circles problem). There are two ...

The devil's curve was studied by G. Cramer in 1750 and Lacroix in 1810 (MacTutor Archive). It appeared in Nouvelles Annales in 1858. The Cartesian equation is ...

A diagonal matrix is a square matrix A of the form a_(ij)=c_idelta_(ij), (1) where delta_(ij) is the Kronecker delta, c_i are constants, and i,j=1, 2, ..., n, with no implied ...

Find the figure bounded by a line which has the maximum area for a given perimeter. The solution is a semicircle. The problem is based on a passage from Virgil's Aeneid: "The ...

Differential geometry is the study of Riemannian manifolds. Differential geometry deals with metrical notions on manifolds, while differential topology deals with nonmetrical ...
