The second-order ordinary differential equation satisfied by the Neumann polynomials O_n(x).

The identities between the symmetric polynomials Pi_k(x_1,...,x_n) and the sums of kth powers of their variables S_k(x_1,...,x_n)=sum_(j=1)^nx_j^k. (1) The identities are ...

where del is the backward difference.

Let a triangle have side lengths a, b, and c with opposite angles A, B, and C. Then (b+c)/a = (cos[1/2(B-C)])/(sin(1/2A)) (1) (c+a)/b = (cos[1/2(C-A)])/(sin(1/2B)) (2) ...

If each of two nonparallel transversals with nonminimal directions meets a given curve in finite points only, then the ratio of products of the distances from the two sets of ...

Four bits or half a byte, also sometimes spelled "nybble." Since a nibble encodes values from 0 to 2^4-1=15, it can conveniently be represented using a single hexadecimal ...

An algebra, also called a nilalgebra, consisting only of nilpotent Elements.

A pile of counters in a game of nim. The nim-heap illustrated above corresponds to the game of Marienbad.

A conic section on which the midpoints of the sides of any complete quadrangle lie. The three diagonal points P, Q, and R also lie on this conic.

Any cubic curve that passes through eight of the nine intersections of two given cubic curves automatically passes through the ninth.
