An antisymmetric matrix, also known as a skew-symmetric or antimetric matrix, is a square matrix that satisfies the identity A=-A^(T) (1) where A^(T) is the matrix transpose. ...

A topological two-sphere in three-space whose exterior is not simply connected. The outer complement of Antoine's horned sphere is not simply connected. Furthermore, the ...

An aperiodic monotile, also somewhat humorously known as an einstein (where "einstein" means "one stone", perhaps generalizable to "one tile," in German), is a single tile ...

An aperiodic tiling is a non-periodic tiling in which arbitrarily large periodic patches do not occur. A set of tiles is said to be aperiodic if they can form only ...

E. Pegg Jr. (pers. comm., Nov. 8, 2004) found an approximation to Apéry's constant zeta(3) given by zeta(3) approx 10+zeta(16)-sqrt(96), (1) which is good to 6 digits. M. ...

The continued fraction for Apéry's constant zeta(3) is [1; 4, 1, 18, 1, 1, 1, 4, 1, ...] (OEIS A013631). The positions at which the numbers 1, 2, ... occur in the continued ...

A number having 666 digits (where 666 is the beast number) is called an apocalypse number. The Fibonacci number F_(3184) is the smallest Fibonacci apocalypse number (Livio ...

A number of the form 2^n that contains the digits 666 (i.e., the beast number) is called an apocalyptic number. 2^(157) is an apocalyptic number. The first few such powers ...

Consider the excircles J_A, J_B, and J_C of a triangle, and the external Apollonius circle Gamma tangent externally to all three. Denote the contact point of Gamma and J_A by ...

Given a ship with a known constant direction and speed v, what course should be taken by a chase ship in pursuit (traveling at speed V) in order to intercept the other ship ...
