An algebraic extension K over a field F is a purely inseparable extension if the algebraic number minimal polynomial of any element has only one root, possibly with ...

The reflexive closure of a binary relation R on a set X is the minimal reflexive relation R^' on X that contains R. Thus aR^'a for every element a of X and aR^'b for distinct ...

An area-minimizing surface (rectifiable current) bounded by a smooth curve in R^3 is a smooth submanifold with boundary.

Rényi's polynomial is the polynomial (Rényi 1947, Coppersmith and Davenport 1991) that has 29 terms and whose square has 28, making it a sparse polynomial square.

A tree of links obtained by repeatedly choosing a crossing, applying the skein relationship to obtain two simpler links, and repeating the process. The tree depth of a ...

An integer matrix whose entries satisfy a_(ij)={0 if j>i+1; -1 if j=i+1; 0 or 1 if j<=i. (1) There are 2^(n-1) special minimal matrices of size n×n.

An expression built up from statements letters by appropriate application of connectives (Mendelson 1997, p. 13).

If a sequence has the property that the block growth function B(n)=n+1 for all n, then it is said to have minimal block growth, and the sequence is called a Sturmian ...

The minimal polynomial S_n(x) whose roots are sums and differences of the square roots of the first n primes, ...

A conjecture which relates the minimal elliptic discriminant of an elliptic curve to the j-conductor. If true, it would imply Fermat's last theorem for sufficiently large ...
