A continuous map f:X->Y between topological spaces is said to be null-homotopic if it is homotopic to a constant map. If a space X has the property that id_X, the identity ...

Let f be analytic on the unit disk, and assume that 1. |f(z)|<=1 for all z and 2. f(0)=0. Then |f(z)|<=|z| and |f^'(0)|<=1. If either |f(z)|=|z| for some z!=0 or if ...

A modification of the Eberhart's conjecture proposed by Wagstaff (1983) which proposes that if q_n is the nth prime such that M_(q_n) is a Mersenne prime, then ...

A zero-sum game is a game in which players make payments only to each other. In such a game, one player's loss is the other player's gain, so the total amount of "money" ...

Consider the Fibonacci-like recurrence a_n=+/-a_(n-1)+/-a_(n-2), (1) where a_0=0, a_1=1, and each sign is chosen independently and at random with probability 1/2. ...

The Enneper surfaces are a three-parameter family of surfaces with constant negative curvature (and nonconstant mean curvature). In general, they are described by elliptic ...

A coordinate system similar to toroidal coordinates but with fourth-degree instead of second-degree surfaces for constant mu so that the toroids of circular cross section are ...

Meißner (1911) showed how to modify the Reuleaux tetrahedron (which is not a solid of constant width) to form a surface of constant width by replacing three of its edge arcs ...

A Trott constant is a real number whose decimal digits are equal to the terms of its continued fraction. The first Trott constant (OEIS A039662) was discovered by M. Trott in ...

A Julia set with constant c chosen at the boundary of the Mandelbrot set (Branner 1989; Dufner et al. 1998, p. 225). The image above was computed using c=i.
