A conjecture which treats the heights of points relative to a canonical class of a curve defined over the integers.

Let alpha, -beta, and -gamma^(-1) be the roots of the cubic equation t^3+2t^2-t-1=0, (1) then the Rogers L-function satisfies L(alpha)-L(alpha^2) = 1/7 (2) ...

A sequence of numbers V={nu_n} is said to be weakly complete if every positive integer n beyond a certain point N is the sum of some subsequence of V (Honsberger 1985). ...

Every nonempty set of positive integers contains a smallest member.

Constants gamma such that [int_Omega|f|^qdx]^(1/q)<=gamma[int_Omegasum_(i=1)^N|(partialf)/(partialx_i)|^pdx]^(1/p), where f is a real-valued smooth function on a region Omega ...

The Bernoulli distribution is a discrete distribution having two possible outcomes labelled by n=0 and n=1 in which n=1 ("success") occurs with probability p and n=0 ...

The circle map is a one-dimensional map which maps a circle onto itself theta_(n+1)=theta_n+Omega-K/(2pi)sin(2pitheta_n), (1) where theta_(n+1) is computed mod 1 and K is a ...

An algorithm used to recursively construct a set of objects from the smallest possible constituent parts. Given a set of k integers (a_1, a_2, ..., a_k) with a_1<a_2<...<a_k, ...

The term "quotient" is most commonly used to refer to the ratio q=r/s of two quantities r and s, where s!=0. Less commonly, the term quotient is also used to mean the integer ...

A sequence {x_1,x_2,...} is equidistributed iff lim_(N->infty)1/Nsum_(n<N)e^(2piimx_n)=0 for each m=1, 2, .... A consequence of this result is that the sequence {frac(nx)} is ...
