Honaker's problem asks for all consecutive prime number triples (p,q,r) with p<q<r such that p|(qr+1). Caldwell and Cheng (2005) showed that the only Honaker triplets for ...

Implicit differentiation is the procedure of differentiating an implicit equation with respect to the desired variable x while treating the other variables as unspecified ...

The technique of extracting the content from geometric (tensor) equations by working in component notation and rearranging indices as required. Index gymnastics is a ...

Find a closed plane curve of a given perimeter which encloses the greatest area. The solution is a circle. If the class of curves to be considered is limited to smooth ...

Jenny's constant is the name given (Munroe 2012) to the positive real constant defined by J = (7^(e-1/e)-9)pi^2 (1) = 867.53090198... (2) (OEIS A182369), the first few digits ...

Suppose x_1<x_2<...<x_n are given positive numbers. Let lambda_1, ..., lambda_n>=0 and sum_(j=1)^(n)lambda_j=1. Then ...

The approximation for pi given by pi approx sqrt((40)/3-2sqrt(3)) (1) = 1/3sqrt(120-18sqrt(3)) (2) = 3.141533.... (3) In the above figure, let OA=OF=1, and construct the ...

The Komornik-Loreti constant is the value q such that 1=sum_(n=1)^infty(t_k)/(q^k), (1) where {t_k} is the Thue-Morse sequence, i.e., t_k is the parity of the number of 1's ...

The Lambert azimuthal equal-area projection is a map projection having transformation equations x = k^'cosphisin(lambda-lambda_0) (1) y = ...

In bispherical coordinates, Laplace's equation becomes (1) Attempt separation of variables by plugging in the trial solution f(u,v,phi)=sqrt(coshv-cosu)U(u)V(v)Psi(psi), (2) ...
