The Abel-Plana formula gives an expression for the difference between a discrete sum and the corresponding integral. The formula can be derived from the argument principle ...

Let n points xi_1, ..., xi_n be randomly distributed on a domain S, and let H be some event that depends on the positions of the n points. Let S^' be a domain slightly ...

There are (at least) two equations known as Sommerfeld's formula. The first is J_nu(z)=1/(2pi)int_(-eta+iinfty)^(2pi-eta+iinfty)e^(izcost)e^(inu(t-pi/2))dt, where J_nu(z) is ...

A formula which transforms a given coordinate system by rotating it through a counterclockwise angle Phi about an axis n^^. Referring to the above figure (Goldstein 1980), ...

In a 1631 edition of Academiae Algebrae, J. Faulhaber published the general formula for the power sum of the first n positive integers, sum_(k=1)^(n)k^p = H_(n,-p) (1) = ...

Given a point P and a line AB, draw the perpendicular through P and call it PC. Let PD be any other line from P which meets CB in D. In a hyperbolic geometry, as D moves off ...

Hadjicostas's formula is a generalization of the unit square double integral gamma=int_0^1int_0^1(x-1)/((1-xy)ln(xy))dxdy (1) (Sondow 2003, 2005; Borwein et al. 2004, p. 49), ...

Let g(x)=(1-x^2)(1-k^2x^2). Then int_0^a(dx)/(sqrt(g(x)))+int_0^b(dx)/(sqrt(g(x)))=int_0^c(dx)/(sqrt(g(x))), where c=(bsqrt(g(a))+asqrt(g(b)))/(sqrt(1-k^2a^2b^2)).

A formula satisfied by all Hamiltonian cycles with n nodes. Let f_j be the number of regions inside the circuit with j sides, and let g_j be the number of regions outside the ...

An interpolation formula, sometimes known as the Newton-Bessel formula, given by (1) for p in [0,1], where delta is the central difference and B_(2n) = 1/2G_(2n) (2) = ...
