If a triangle is inscribed in a conic section, any line conjugate to one side meets the other two sides in conjugate points.

Let K and L be simplicial complexes, and let f:K^((0))->L^((0)) be a map. Suppose that whenever the vertices v_0, ..., v_n of K span a simplex of K, the points f(v_0), ..., ...

A smooth map f:S^1->R^3 whose image has singularities. In particular, in the theory of Vassiliev's knot invariants, singular knots with a finite number of ordinary double ...

A smooth function is a function that has continuous derivatives up to some desired order over some domain. A function can therefore be said to be smooth over a restricted ...

A moving average using 15 points having weights -3, -6, -5, 3, 21, 46, 67, 74, 67, 46, 21, 3, -5, -6, and -3. It is sometimes used by actuaries.

Find the tunnel between two points A and B on a gravitating sphere which gives the shortest transit time under the force of gravity. Assume the sphere to be nonrotating, of ...

A set that is a smooth embedded two-dimensional manifold except for a subset that consists of smooth embedded curves, except for a set of isolated points.

The space join of a topological space X and a pair of points S^0, Sigma(X)=X*S^0.

Sylvester's line problem, known as the Sylvester-Gallai theorem in proved form, states that it is not possible to arrange a finite number of points so that a line through ...

A symmetric design is a block design (v, k, lambda, r, b) with the same number of blocks as points, so b=v (or, equivalently, r=k). An example of a symmetric block design is ...
