A Padé approximant perturbed with a Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind to reduce the leading coefficient in the error.

A nonreflexible regular map of genus 7 with eight graph vertices, 28 graph edges, and eight heptagonal faces.

A catastrophe which can occur for three control factors and two behavior axes. The elliptical umbilic is catastrophe of codimension 3 that has the equation ...

A finite-dimensional Lie algebra all of whose elements are ad-nilpotent is itself a nilpotent Lie algebra.

A program initiated by F. Klein in an 1872 lecture to describe geometric structures in terms of their automorphism groups.

A representation phi of a group G is faithful if it is one-to-one, i.e., if phi(g)=phi(h) implies g=h for g,h in G. Equivalently, phi is faithful if phi(g)=I_n implies g=e, ...

Any nondegenerate closed space curve may be nondegenerately deformed into either of the two curves illustrated above. Neither of these can be nondegenerately transformed into ...

The only whole number solution to the Diophantine equation y^3=x^2+2 is y=3, x=+/-5. This theorem was offered as a problem by Fermat, who suppressed his own proof.

Let F_n be the nth Fibonacci number. Then the sequence {F_n}_(n=2)^infty={1,2,3,5,8,...} is complete, even if one is restricted to subsequences in which no two consecutive ...

The figure eight knot, also known as the Flemish knot and savoy knot, is the unique prime knot of four crossings 04-001. It has braid word ...
