Consider a horse rider who wishes to feed his horse at a field, gather water from a river, and then return to his tent, all in the smallest overall distance possible. The ...

The terminal side of an angle theta drawn in angle standard position is the side which isn't the initial side. When viewing an angle as the amount of rotation about the ...

A tetractys, also called a tetraktys or decad, is an arrangement of 10 points in the form of a triangle with 1 point in the first row, two in the second, three in the third, ...

Let phi(z)=cz+c_0+c_1z^(-1)+c_2z^(-2)+... be an analytic function, regular and univalent for |z|>1, that maps |z|>1 conformally onto the region T preserving the point at ...

The catacaustic of the Tschirnhausen cubic with parametric representation x = 3(t^2-3) (1) y = t(t^2-3) (2) with radiant point at (-8,0) is the semicubical parabola with ...

A sequence of numbers V={nu_n} is said to be weakly complete if every positive integer n beyond a certain point N is the sum of some subsequence of V (Honsberger 1985). ...

Given a succession of nonsingular points which are on a nonhyperelliptic curve of curve genus p, but are not a group of the canonical series, the number of groups of the ...

A lattice path from one point to another is p-good if it lies completely below the line y=(p-1)x. (1) Hilton and Pederson (1991) show that the number of p-good paths from (1, ...

The x-axis is the horizontal axis of a two-dimensional plot in Cartesian coordinates that is conventionally oriented to point to the right (left figure). In three dimensions, ...

The definition of an Anosov map is the same as for an Anosov diffeomorphism except that instead of being a diffeomorphism, it is a map. In particular, an Anosov map is a C^1 ...
