Maps between CW-complexes that induce isomorphisms on all homotopy groups are actually homotopy equivalences.

The 6-polyiamond illustrated above.

Every module over a ring R contains a so-called "zero element" which fulfils the properties suggested by its name with respect to addition, 0+0=0, and with respect to ...

The function defined by [n]_q = [n; 1]_q (1) = (1-q^n)/(1-q) (2) for integer n, where [n; k]_q is a q-binomial coefficient. The q-bracket satisfies lim_(q->1^-)[n]_q=n. (3)

The system of partial differential equations del ^4u = E(v_(xy)^2-v_(xx)v_(yy)) (1) del ^4v = alpha+beta(u_(yy)v_(xx)+u_(xx)v_(yy)-2u_(xy)v_(xy)), (2) where del ^4 is the ...

The smallest positive composite number and the first even perfect square. Four is the smallest even number appearing in a Pythagorean triple: 3, 4, 5. In the numerology of ...

A braid is an intertwining of some number of strings attached to top and bottom "bars" such that each string never "turns back up." In other words, the path of each string in ...

The term Euclidean refers to everything that can historically or logically be referred to Euclid's monumental treatise The Thirteen Books of the Elements, written around the ...

Kloosterman's sum is defined by S(u,v,n)=sum_(h)exp[(2pii(uh+vh^_))/n], (1) where h runs through a complete set of residues relatively prime to n and h^_ is defined by hh^_=1 ...
