A function, continuous in a finite closed interval, can be approximated with a preassigned accuracy by polynomials. A function of a real variable which is continuous and has ...

If f is a function on an open set U, then the zero set of f is the set Z={z in U:f(z)=0}. A subset of a topological space X is called a zero set if it is equal to f^(-1)(0) ...

Convergents of the pi continued fractions are the simplest approximants to pi. The first few are given by 3, 22/7, 333/106, 355/113, 103993/33102, 104348/33215, ... (OEIS ...

A primitive root of a prime p is an integer g such that g (mod p) has multiplicative order p-1 (Ribenboim 1996, p. 22). More generally, if GCD(g,n)=1 (g and n are relatively ...

Zero is the integer denoted 0 that, when used as a counting number, means that no objects are present. It is the only integer (and, in fact, the only real number) that is ...

The set E of edges of a loopless graph (V,E), being a set of unordered pairs of elements of V, constitutes an adjacency relation on V. Formally, an adjacency relation is any ...

An ordered pair (a,b) of nonnegative integers such that there is some set of a points and b edges whose removal disconnects the graph and there is no set of a-1 nodes and b ...

A diagonal matrix D=diag(d_1,...,d_n) sometimes also called the valency matrix corresponding to a graph that has the vertex degree of d_i in the ith position (Skiena 1990, p. ...

The dodecadodecahedral graph is the skeleton of the dodecadodecahedron, great dodecahemicosahedron, and small dodecahemicosahedron. It is illustrated above in several ...

An edge-induced subgraph is a subset of the edges of a graph G together with any vertices that are their endpoints. The subgraph induced by a set of edges can be computed in ...
