Informally, the sample space for a given set of events is the set of all possible values the events may assume. Formally, the set of possible events for a given random ...

If f_1(x), ..., f_s(x) are irreducible polynomials with integer coefficients such that no integer n>1 divides f_1(x), ..., f_s(x) for all integers x, then there should exist ...

A Taylor series remainder formula that gives after n terms of the series R_n=(f^((n+1))(x^*))/(n!p)(x-x^*)^(n+1-p)(x-x_0)^p for x^* in (x_0,x) and any p>0 (Blumenthal 1926, ...

The Schroeder stairs, also called Schouten's staircase (Bool et al. 1982, p. 147), are an ambiguous figure that depicts two different staircases at the same time: one going ...

The perspector of the first Morley triangle with reference triangle DeltaABC is called the second Morley center. Its triangle center function is alpha_(357)=sec(1/3A), which ...

The second de Villiers point is the perspector of the reference triangle and the excenter analog of the BCI triangle, which is Kimberling center X_(1128) has triangle center ...

A number of areas of mathematics have the notion of a "dual" which can be applies to objects of that particular area. Whenever an object A has the property that it is equal ...

The semiperimeter on a figure is defined as s=1/2p, (1) where p is the perimeter. The semiperimeter of polygons appears in unexpected ways in the computation of their areas. ...

The set difference A\B is defined by A\B={x:x in A and x not in B}. Here, the backslash symbol is defined as Unicode U+2216. The set difference is therefore equivalent to the ...

A shaky polyhedron is a non-rigid concave polyhedron which is only infinitesimally movable. Jessen's orthogonal icosahedron is a shaky polyhedron (Wells 1991).
