A spheroidal section is the curve formed by the intersection of a plane with a spheroid. A spheroidal section is either a circle (for planes parallel to an equator, i.e., ...

The 6-polyiamond illustrated above, named for its resemblance to the Great Sphinx of Egypt.

A spigot algorithm is an algorithm which generates digits of a quantity one at a time without using or requiring previously computed digits. Amazingly, spigot algorithms are ...

The image on the Riemann sphere of any circle under a complex rational mapping with numerator and denominator having degrees no more than n has length no longer than 2npi.

The inversion of a spindle torus. If the inversion center lies on the torus, then the spindle cyclide degenerates to a parabolic spindle cyclide.

A fixed point for which the eigenvalues are complex conjugates.

A link L is said to be splittable if a plane can be embedded in R^3 such that the plane separates one or more components of L from other components of L and the plane is ...

A perimeter-bisecting line segment which originates at a vertex of a polygon. The three splitters of a triangle concur in a point known as the Nagel point Na.

A method for computing an Egyptian fraction. This method always terminates (Beeckmans 1993).

A three-dimensional knot spun about a plane in four dimensions. Unlike suspended knots, spun knots are smoothly embedded at the poles.
