The representation of a number as a sum of powers of a base b, followed by expression of each of the exponents as a sum of powers of b, etc., until the process stops. For ...

For real, nonnegative terms x_n and real p with 0<p<1, the expression lim_(k->infty)x_0+(x_1+(x_2+(...+(x_k)^p)^p)^p)^p converges iff (x_n)^(p^n) is bounded.

The metabidiminished icosahedron is a convex equilateral solid that is Johnson solid J_(62). The unit metabidiminished icosahedron has volume V=1/6(5+2sqrt(5)) (1) and Dehn ...

The metabidiminished rhombicosidodecahedron is a convex equilateral solid that is Johnson solid J_(81). The unit metabidiminished rhombicosidodecahedron has volume ...

An algebraic expression containing more than one term (cf., binomial). The term is also used to refer to a polynomial.

The number k in the expression s(n)=kn for a multiperfect number is called its class.

A multiplicand is a quantity that is multiplied by another (the multiplier). For example, in the expression a×b, b is the multiplicand. The result of the multiplication of ...

A quantity by which another (the multiplicand) is multiplied. For example, in the expression a×b, a is the multiplier. The result of the multiplication of two or more ...

An expression that is of a given type. For example, all primes p>3 are "of the form" 6n+/-1. The term "of shape" is sometimes also used.

An "overdot" is a raised dot appearing above a symbol most commonly used in mathematics to indicate a derivative taken with respect to time (e.g., x^.=dx/dt). The expression ...
