Ellipses sharing common foci (left figure). The family of confocal ellipses covers the plane simply, in the sense that there is a unique ellipse passing through each point in ...

Hyperbolas sharing common foci (left figure). The family of confocal hyperbolas covers the plane simply, in the sense that there is a unique hyperbola passing through each ...

An integral obtained by contour integration. The particular path in the complex plane used to compute the integral is called a contour. As a result of a truly amazing ...

The group C_2 is the unique group of group order 2. C_2 is both Abelian and cyclic. Examples include the point groups C_s, C_i, and C_2, the integers modulo 2 under addition ...

C_3 is the unique group of group order 3. It is both Abelian and cyclic. Examples include the point groups C_3, C_(3v), and C_(3h) and the integers under addition modulo 3 ...

C_5 is the unique group of group order 5, which is Abelian. Examples include the point group C_5 and the integers mod 5 under addition (Z_5). No modulo multiplication group ...

C_6 is one of the two groups of group order 6 which, unlike D_3, is Abelian. It is also a cyclic. It is isomorphic to C_2×C_3. Examples include the point groups C_6 and S_6, ...

C_7 is the cyclic group that is the unique group of group order 7. Examples include the point group C_7 and the integers modulo 7 under addition (Z_7). No modulo ...

A limiting case in which a class of object changes its nature so as to belong to another, usually simpler, class. For example, the point is a degenerate case of the circle as ...

A polynomial Z_G(q,v) in two variables for abstract graphs. A graph with one graph vertex has Z=q. Adding a graph vertex not attached by any graph edges multiplies the Z by ...
