A foliation F of dimension p on a manifold M is transversely orientable if it is integral to a p-plane distribution D on M whose normal bundle Q is orientable. A p-plane ...

A technical mathematical object which bears the same resemblance to binary relations as categories do to functions and sets.

Given a set of objects S, a binary relation is a subset of the Cartesian product S tensor S.

The system of partial differential equations u_t = b·v_x (1) b_(xt) = u_(xx)b+axv_x-2vx(vxb). (2)

The Chebyshev integral is given by intx^p(1-x)^qdx=B(x;1+p,1+q), where B(x;a,b) is an incomplete beta function.

A functor F is called covariant if it preserves the directions of arrows, i.e., every arrow f:A-->B is mapped to an arrow F(f):F(A)-->F(B).

A cylinder can be dissected into unequal squares, with nine squares required at a minimum. Trivial squarings can be constructed by taking rectangle dissections and matching ...

A surface of revolution of the form r(phi)=a[1-esin^2phi-(3/8e^2+k)sin^2(2phi)], where k is a second-order correction to the figure of a rotating fluid.

Legendre and Whittaker and Watson's (1990) term for the beta integral int_0^1x^p(1-x)^qdx, whose solution is the beta function B(p+1,q+1).

For R[n]>-1 and R[z]>0, Pi(z,n) = n^zint_0^1(1-x)^nx^(z-1)dx (1) = (n!)/((z)_(n+1))n^z (2) = B(z,n+1), (3) where (z)_n is the Pochhammer symbol and B(p,q) is the beta ...
