A group of three elements, also called a triad. A triple is therefore a 3-tuple.

Trisection is the division of a quantity, figure, etc. into three equal parts, i.e., k-multisection with k=3.

A horizontal line placed under a symbol to indicate some special property. Underscores are sometimes used instead of over-arrows or bold typeface to indicate a vector, for ...

Two quantities a and b which are not equal are said to be unequal, and this relationship can be denoted a!=b.

A quantity which takes on the value zero is said to vanish identically, or sometimes simply to vanish. The term "vanish identically" is preferred when emphasis is needed that ...

A constant sometimes called Varga's constant is defined by V=1/Lambda=9.2890254919... (OEIS A073007), where Lambda is the one-ninth constant.

A closed subspace of a Banach space X is called weakly complemented if the dual i^* of the natural embedding i:M↪X has a right inverse as a bounded operator. For example, the ...
