A mathematical object invented to solve irreducible congruences of the form F(x)=0 (mod p), where p is prime.

For n players, n-1 games are needed to fairly determine first place, and n-1+lg(n-1) are needed to fairly determine first and second place.

gamma_r=(kappa_r)/(sigma^(r+2)), where kappa_r are cumulants and sigma is the standard deviation.

A coordinate system which has a metric satisfying g_(ii)=-1 and partialg_(ij)/partialx_j=0.

The reciprocal of the arithmetic-geometric mean of 1 and sqrt(2), G = 2/piint_0^11/(sqrt(1-x^4))dx (1) = 2/piint_0^(pi/2)(dtheta)/(sqrt(1+sin^2theta)) (2) = L/pi (3) = ...

If a distribution has a single mode at mu_0, then P(|x-mu_0|>=lambdatau)<=4/(9lambda^2), where tau^2=sigma^2+(mu-mu_0)^2.

The Gegenbauer polynomials C_n^((lambda))(x) are solutions to the Gegenbauer differential equation for integer n. They are generalizations of the associated Legendre ...

The geodesics on a general cylinder generated by lines parallel to a line l with which the tangent makes a constant angle.

A one-dimensional geometric object such as a pencil or line segment range.
