The game of nim appearing in Alain Resnais' film Last Year at Marienbad (L'année dernière à Marienbad, 1961). In Marienbad, two players alternately draw counters from one of ...

A sequence of random variates X_0, X_1, ... with finite means such that the conditional expectation of X_(n+1) given X_0, X_1, X_2, ..., X_n is equal to X_n, i.e., ...

A maximal ideal of a ring R is an ideal I, not equal to R, such that there are no ideals "in between" I and R. In other words, if J is an ideal which contains I as a subset, ...

A maximally nonhamiltonian graph is a nonhamiltonian graph G for which G+e is Hamiltonian for each edge e in the graph complement of G^_, i.e., every two nonadjacent vertices ...

Let f(x) be differentiable on the open interval (a,b) and continuous on the closed interval [a,b]. Then there is at least one point c in (a,b) such that ...

A zonohedron which is the dual of the dodecadodecahedron U_(36) and Wenninger dual W_(73). The medial rhombic triacontahedron contains interior pentagrammic vertices which ...

1000 The medial triambic icosahedron is the dual of the ditrigonal dodecadodecahedron U_(41) and Wenninger dual W_(80), whose outward appearance is the same as the great ...

The integral transform defined by g(x)=int_1^inftyt^(1/4-nu/2)(t-1)^(1/4-nu/2)P_(-1/2+ix)^(nu-1/2)(2t-1)f(t)dt (Samko et al. 1993, p. 761) or ...

Meißner (1911) showed how to modify the Reuleaux tetrahedron (which is not a solid of constant width) to form a surface of constant width by replacing three of its edge arcs ...

A variable x is memoryless with respect to t if, for all s with t!=0, P(x>s+t|x>t)=P(x>s). (1) Equivalently, (P(x>s+t,x>t))/(P(x>t)) = P(x>s) (2) P(x>s+t) = P(x>s)P(x>t). (3) ...
