The double sphere is the degenerate quartic surface (x^2+y^2+z^2-r^2)^2=0 obtained by squaring the left-hand side of the equation of a usual sphere x^2+y^2+z^2-r^2=0.

The Scarabaeus curve is a sextic curve given by the equation (x^2+y^2)(x^2+y^2+ax)^2-b^2(x^2-y^2)^2=0 and by the polar equation r=bcos(2theta)-acostheta where a,b!=0.

p^x is an infinitary divisor of p^y (with y>0) if p^x|_(y-1)p^y, where d|_kn denotes a k-ary Divisor (Guy 1994, p. 54). Infinitary divisors therefore generalize the concept ...

If f(x) is an odd function, then a_n=0 and the Fourier series collapses to f(x)=sum_(n=1)^inftyb_nsin(nx), (1) where b_n = 1/piint_(-pi)^pif(x)sin(nx)dx (2) = ...

A related rates problem is the determination of the rate at which a function defined in terms of other functions changes. Related rates problems can be solved by computing ...

A shuffle-exchange graph is a nonsimple graph (due to the existence of graph loops) whose vertices are length n binary strings with an edge from w to w^' if 1. w^' differs ...

Chebyshev-Gauss quadrature, also called Chebyshev quadrature, is a Gaussian quadrature over the interval [-1,1] with weighting function W(x)=(1-x^2)^(-1/2) (Abramowitz and ...

Bezdek and Kuperberg (1991) have constructed packings of identical ellipsoids of densities arbitrarily close to ((24sqrt(2)-6sqrt(3)-2pi)pi)/(72)=0.753355... (OEIS A093824), ...

"Vertex" is a synonym for a node of a graph, i.e., one of the points on which the graph is defined and which may be connected by graph edges. The terms "point," "junction," ...

An identity graph, sometimes also known as an asymmetric graph or rigid graph (Albertson and Collins 1996), is a graph possessing a single graph automorphism. The numbers of ...
