Given any real number theta and any positive integer N, there exist integers h and k with 0<k<=N such that |ktheta-h|<1/N. A slightly weaker form of the theorem states that ...

Two cones placed apex to apex. The double cone is given by algebraic equation (z^2)/(c^2)=(x^2+y^2)/(a^2).

The quantity 12 is sometimes referred to as one dozen.

The Eisenstein units are the Eisenstein integers +/-1, +/-omega, +/-omega^2, where omega = 1/2(-1+isqrt(3)) (1) omega^2 = 1/2(-1-isqrt(3)). (2)

Line segment ranges and pencils which have equal cross ratios are said to be equicross.

An equilateral polygon is a polygon whose edges are all of equal length (Williams 1979, pp. 31-32). The most prominent examples of equilateral polygons are the regular ...

A Euclidean motion of R^n is an affine transformation whose linear part is an orthogonal transformation.

An array of "trees" of unit height located at integer-coordinate points in a point lattice. When viewed from a corner along the line y=x in normal perspective, a quadrant of ...

A system of congruences a_i mod n_i with 1<=i<=k is called a complete residue system (or covering system) if every integer y satisfies y=a_i (mod n) for at least one value of ...

A 1-form w is said to be exact in a region R if there is a function f that is defined and of class C^1 (i.e., is once continuously differentiable in R) and such that df=w.
