Let (xi_1,xi_2) be a locally Euclidean coordinate system. Then ds^2=dxi_1^2+dxi_2^2. (1) Now plug in dxi_1=(partialxi_1)/(partialx_1)dx_1+(partialxi_1)/(partialx_2)dx_2 (2) ...

The quantity ps-rq obtained by letting x = pX+qY (1) y = rX+sY (2) in ax^2+2bxy+cy^2 (3) so that A = ap^2+2bpr+cr^2 (4) B = apq+b(ps+qr)+crs (5) C = aq^2+2bqs+cs^2 (6) and ...

An epicycloid with n=5 cusps, named after the buttercup genus Ranunculus (Madachy 1979). Its parametric equations are x = a[6cost-cos(6t)] (1) y = a[6sint-sin(6t)]. (2) Its ...

Given two distributions Y and X with joint probability density function f(x,y), let U=Y/X be the ratio distribution. Then the distribution function of u is D(u) = P(U<=u) (1) ...

The Riemann-Lebesgue Lemma, sometimes also called Mercer's theorem, states that lim_(n->infty)int_a^bK(lambda,z)Csin(nz)dz=0 (1) for arbitrarily large C and "nice" ...

A point of a function or surface which is a stationary point but not an extremum. An example of a one-dimensional function with a saddle point is f(x)=x^3, which has f^'(x) = ...

The Sierpiński gasket graph of order n is the graph obtained from the connectivity of the Sierpiński sieve. The first few Sierpiński gasket graphs are illustrated above. S_2 ...

The group of all nonsingular n×n stochastic matrices over a field F. It is denoted S(n,F). If p is prime and F is the finite field of order q=p^m, S(n,q) is written instead ...

The sum rule for differentiation states d/(dx)[f(x)+g(x)]=f^'(x)+g^'(x), (1) where d/dx denotes a derivative and f^'(x) and g^'(x) are the derivatives of f(x) and g(x), ...

The symmedial circle is the circumcircle of the symmedial triangle. It has circle function l=(bc(a^4-a^2b^2-b^4-a^2c^2-b^2c^2-c^4))/(2(a^2+b^2)(a^2+c^2)(b^2+c^2)), (1) which ...
