A hypergeometric series sum_(k)c_k is a series for which c_0=1 and the ratio of consecutive terms is a rational function of the summation index k, i.e., one for which ...

Marsaglia (1972) has given a simple method for selecting points with a uniform distribution on the surface of a 4-sphere. This is accomplished by picking two pairs of points ...

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is the triangle's longest side, i.e., the side opposite the right angle. The word derives from the Greek hypo- ("under") and teinein ("to ...

A hypothesis is a proposition that is consistent with known data, but has been neither verified nor shown to be false. In statistics, a hypothesis (sometimes called a ...

A hypotrochoid is a roulette traced by a point P attached to a circle of radius b rolling around the inside of a fixed circle of radius a, where P is a distance h from the ...

The (general) icosahedron is a 20-faced polyhedron (where icos- derives from the Greek word for "twenty" and -hedron comes from the Indo-European word for "seat"). Examples ...

The icosidodecadodecahedron is the uniform polyhedron with Maeder index 44 (Maeder 1997), Wenninger index 83 (Wenninger 1989), Coxeter index 56 (Coxeter et al. 1954), and ...

There are 432 enantiomorphous and 415 chiral fully supported stellations of the icosidodecahedron. Using Miller's rules gives 7071672 enantiomorphous stellations and an ...

The icositruncated dodecadodecahedron, also called the icosidodecatruncated icosidodecahedron, is the uniform polyhedron with Maeder index 45 (Maeder 1997), Wenninger index ...

An identity is a mathematical relationship equating one quantity to another (which may initially appear to be different).
