Two fractions are said to be adjacent if their difference has a unit numerator. For example, 1/3 and 1/4 are adjacent since 1/3-1/4=1/12, but 1/2 and 1/5 are not since ...

A convex body in Euclidean space that is centrally symmetric with center at the origin is determined among all such bodies by its brightness function (the volume of each ...

A category of link encompassing both alternating knots and torus knots.

An anchor is the bundle map rho from a vector bundle A to the tangent bundle TB satisfying 1. [rho(X),rho(Y)]=rho([X,Y]) and 2. [X,phiY]=phi[X,Y]+(rho(X)·phi)Y, where X and Y ...

A formal mathematical theory which introduces "components at infinity" by defining a new type of divisor class group of integers of a number field. The divisor class group is ...

In a cochain complex of modules ...->C^(i-1)->^(d^(i-1))C^i->^(d^i)C^(i+1)->... the module Z^i of i-cocycles Z^i is the kernel of d^i, which is a submodule of C^i.

As used in physics, the term "exact" generally refers to a solution that captures the entire physics and mathematics of a problem as opposed to one that is approximate, ...

Consider a square wave f(x) of length 2L. Over the range [0,2L], this can be written as f(x)=2[H(x/L)-H(x/L-1)]-1, (1) where H(x) is the Heaviside step function. Since ...

Let omega(n) be the number of distinct prime factors of n. If Psi(x) tends steadily to infinity with x, then lnlnx-Psi(x)sqrt(lnlnx)<omega(n)<lnlnx+Psi(x)sqrt(lnlnx) for ...

The hexyl circle is the circumcircle of the hexyl triangle. Amazingly, its center is at the incenter I and its radius is 2R, where R is the circumradius. Its circle function ...
