If M^3 is a closed oriented connected 3-manifold such that every simple closed curve in M lies interior to a ball in M, then M is homeomorphic with the hypersphere, S^3.

If a is a point in the open unit disk, then the Blaschke factor is defined by B_a(z)=(z-a)/(1-a^_z), where a^_ is the complex conjugate of a. Blaschke factors allow the ...

A triangle DeltaA^'B^'C^' is said to be circumscribed in a triangle DeltaABC if A lies on B^'C^', B lies on C^'A^', and C lies on A^'B^' (Kimberling 1998, p. 185). Examples ...

The classification of a collection of objects generally means that a list has been constructed with exactly one member from each isomorphism type among the objects, and that ...

Given a series of the form A(z)=sum_(k)a_kz^k, the notation [z^k](A(z)) is used to indicate the coefficient a_k (Sedgewick and Flajolet 1996). This corresponds to the Wolfram ...

A method of determining coefficients alpha_l in an expansion y(x)=y_0(x)+sum_(l=1)^qalpha_ly_l(x) so as to nullify the values of an ordinary differential equation L[y(x)]=0 ...

A compactum (plural: compacta) is a compact metric space. An example of a compactum is any finite discrete metric space. Also, the space [0,1] union [2,3] is a compactum, ...

The distribution parameter of a noncylindrical ruled surface parameterized by x(u,v)=sigma(u)+vdelta(u), (1) where sigma is the striction curve and delta the director curve, ...

A number of attractive 7-compounds of the regular dodecahedron can be constructed. The compound illustrated above will be implemented in a future version of the Wolfram ...

The parallel curves for (outward) offset k of an ellipse with semi-axis lengths a and b are given by x_p = (a+(bk)/(sqrt(a^2sin^2t+b^2cos^2t)))cost (1) y_p = ...
