A 4-hyperboloid has negative curvature, with R^2=x^2+y^2+z^2-w^2 (1) 2x(dx)/(dw)+2y(dy)/(dw)+2z(dz)/(dw)-2w=0. (2) Since r=xx^^+yy^^+zz^^, (3) it follows that ...

The representation of a number as a sum of powers of a base b, followed by expression of each of the exponents as a sum of powers of b, etc., until the process stops. For ...

For the parametric representation x = (2t^2)/(1+t^2) (1) y = (2t^3)/(1+t^2), (2) the catacaustic of this curve from the radiant point (8a,0) is given by x = ...

The coordinate system obtained by inversion of Cartesian coordinates, with u,v,w in (-infty,infty). The transformation equations are x = u/(u^2+v^2+w^2) (1) y = ...

Zero is the integer denoted 0 that, when used as a counting number, means that no objects are present. It is the only integer (and, in fact, the only real number) that is ...

A 4-sphere has positive curvature, with R^2=x^2+y^2+z^2+w^2 (1) 2x(dx)/(dw)+2y(dy)/(dw)+2z(dz)/(dw)+2w=0. (2) Since r=xx^^+yy^^+zz^^ (3) dw = -(xdx+ydy+zdz)/w (4) = ...

Just as many interesting integer sequences can be defined and their properties studied, it is often of interest to additionally determine which of their elements are prime. ...

I((chi_s^2)/(sqrt(2(k-1))),(k-3)/2)=(Gamma(1/2chi_s^2,(k-1)/2))/(Gamma((k-1)/2)), where Gamma(x) is the gamma function.

The Dürer folium is a special case of the rose curve with n=1. It is therefore also an epitrochoid. It has polar equation r=asin(theta/2) (1) and can be written as a ...

Apply Markov's inequality with a=k^2 to obtain P[(x-mu)^2>=k^2]<=(<(x-mu)^2>)/(k^2)=(sigma^2)/(k^2). (1) Therefore, if a random variable x has a finite mean mu and finite ...
