Two or more functions, equations, or vectors f_1, f_2, ..., which are not linearly dependent, i.e., cannot be expressed in the form a_1f_1+a_2f_2+...+a_nf_n=0 with a_1, a_2, ...

The plane through the midpoint of a line segment and perpendicular to that segment, also called a mediating plane. The term "mediator" was introduced by J. Neuberg ...

A projective plane in which every line is a translation line is called a Moufang plane.

There are two equivalent definitions for a nilpotent matrix. 1. A square matrix whose eigenvalues are all 0. 2. A square matrix A such that A^n is the zero matrix 0 for some ...

The common axis of the three altitude planes of a trihedron.

One of the symmetry groups of the Platonic solids. There are three polyhedral groups: the tetrahedral group of order 12, the octahedral group of order 24, and the icosahedral ...

Eliminate each knot crossing by connecting each of the strands coming into the crossing to the adjacent strand leaving the crossing. The resulting strands no longer cross but ...
