The letter O is used for a number of different purposes in mathematics. The double-struck O is sometimes used to represent octonions. The symbols O(x) (sometimes called the ...

The "15 puzzle" is a sliding square puzzle commonly (but incorrectly) attributed to Sam Loyd. However, research by Slocum and Sonneveld (2006) has revealed that Sam Loyd did ...

The two recursive sequences U_n = mU_(n-1)+U_(n-2) (1) V_n = mV_(n-1)+V_(n-2) (2) with U_0=0, U_1=1 and V_0=2, V_1=m, can be solved for the individual U_n and V_n. They are ...

The evolute of Cayley's sextic with parametrization x = 4acos^3(1/3theta)cost (1) y = 4acos^3(1/3theta)sint (2) is given by x_e = 1/4[2+3cos(2/3t)-cos(2t)] (3) y_e = ...

The surface given by the parametric equations x = e^(bv)cosv+e^(av)cosucosv (1) y = e^(bv)sinv+e^(av)cosusinv (2) z = e^(av)sinu. (3) For a=b=1, the coefficients of the first ...

The kth exterior power of an element alpha in an exterior algebra LambdaV is given by the wedge product of alpha with itself k times. Note that if alpha has odd degree, then ...

The first Neuberg circle is the circumcircle of the first Neuberg triangle. The center has center function (1) which is not a Kimberling center. Its radius is ...

The Gallatly circle is the circle with center at the Brocard midpoint X_(39) and radius R_G = Rsinomega (1) = (abc)/(2sqrt(a^2b^2+a^2c^2+b^2c^2)), (2) where R is the ...

The keratoid cusp is quintic algebraic curve defined by y^2=x^2y+x^5. (1) It has a ramphoid cusp at the origin, horizontal tangents at (0,0) and (-6/(25),(108)/(3125)), and a ...

The radical circle of the Neuberg circles has circle function l=(a^2b^4-b^4c^2+a^2c^4-b^2c^4)/(bc(a^2b^2+a^2c^2+b^2c^2)), (1) which does not correspond to any Kimberling ...
