An asymptotic direction at a point p of a regular surface M in R^3 is a direction in which the normal curvature of M vanishes. 1. There are no asymptotic directions at an ...

The French metro metric is an example for disproving apparently intuitive but false properties of metric spaces. The metric consists of a distance function on the plane such ...

Integer division is division in which the fractional part (remainder) is discarded is called integer division and is sometimes denoted \. Integer division can be defined as ...

Let G be a group, then there exists a piecewise linear knot K^(n-2) in S^n for n>=5 with G=pi_1(S^n-K) iff G satisfies 1. G is finitely presentable, 2. The Abelianization of ...

At each point on a given a two-dimensional surface, there are two "principal" radii of curvature. The larger is denoted R_1, and the smaller R_2. The "principal directions" ...

Let m and m+h be two consecutive critical indices of f and let F be (m+h)-normal. If the polynomials p^~_k^((n)) are defined by p^~_0^((n))(u) = 1 (1) p^~_(k+1)^((n))(u) = ...

Let H be a Hilbert space, B(H) the set of bounded linear operators from H to itself, T an operator on H, and sigma(T) the operator spectrum of T. Then if T in B(H) and T is ...

A quantity displayed below the normal line of text (and generally in a smaller point size), as the "i" in a_i, is called a subscript. Subscripts are commonly used to indicate ...

A quantity displayed above the normal line of text (and generally in a smaller point size), as the "i" in x^i, is called a superscript. Superscripts are commonly used to ...

Two cones placed base-to-base. The bicone with base radius r and half-height h has surface area and volume S = 2pirsqrt(r^2+h^2) (1) V = 2/3pir^2h. (2) The centroid is at the ...
