A special function which is given by the logarithmic derivative of the gamma function (or, depending on the definition, the logarithmic derivative of the factorial). Because ...

Given any real number theta and any positive integer N, there exist integers h and k with 0<k<=N such that |ktheta-h|<1/N. A slightly weaker form of the theorem states that ...

Two cones placed apex to apex. The double cone is given by algebraic equation (z^2)/(c^2)=(x^2+y^2)/(a^2).

The quantity 12 is sometimes referred to as one dozen.

The Eisenstein units are the Eisenstein integers +/-1, +/-omega, +/-omega^2, where omega = 1/2(-1+isqrt(3)) (1) omega^2 = 1/2(-1-isqrt(3)). (2)

Line segment ranges and pencils which have equal cross ratios are said to be equicross.

An equilateral polygon is a polygon whose edges are all of equal length (Williams 1979, pp. 31-32). The most prominent examples of equilateral polygons are the regular ...

A Euclidean motion of R^n is an affine transformation whose linear part is an orthogonal transformation.

An array of "trees" of unit height located at integer-coordinate points in a point lattice. When viewed from a corner along the line y=x in normal perspective, a quadrant of ...

A system of congruences a_i mod n_i with 1<=i<=k is called a complete residue system (or covering system) if every integer y satisfies y=a_i (mod n) for at least one value of ...
