A tree of links obtained by repeatedly choosing a crossing, applying the skein relationship to obtain two simpler links, and repeating the process. The tree depth of a ...

A method for predicting the onset of widespread chaos.

A subspace A of X is called a retract of X if there is a continuous map f:X->X (called a retraction) such that for all x in X and all a in A, 1. f(x) in A, and 2. f(a)=a. ...

A retraction is a continuous map of a space onto a subspace leaving each point of the subspace fixed. Alternatively, retraction can refer to withdrawal of a paper containing ...

A curve of constant width constructed by drawing arcs from each polygon vertex of an equilateral triangle between the other two vertices. The Reuleaux triangle has the ...

An algorithm for computing an Egyptian fraction.

For P and Q polynomials in n variables, |P·Q|_2^2=sum_(i_1,...,i_n>=0)(|P^((i_1,...,i_n))(D_1,...,D_n)Q(x_1,...,x_n)|_2^2)/(i_1!...i_n!), where D_i=partial/partialx_i, |X|_2 ...

A polyhedron with extra square faces, given by the Schläfli symbol r{p; q}.

A beautiful class of polyhedra composed of rhombic faces discovered accidentally by R. Towle while attempting to develop a function to create a rhombic hexahedron from a ...

The dual polyhedron of the rhombicosahedron U_(56) and Wenninger dual W_(96).
