The number 24 is equal to 4! (four factorial). A number puzzle asks to construct 24 in as many ways possible using elementary mathematical operations on three copies of the ...

Alexandrov's theorem addresses conditions under which a polygon will fold into a convex polyhedron (Malkevitch).

The number of single operations (of addition, subtraction, and multiplication) required to complete an algorithm.

A group having continuous group operations. A continuous group is necessarily infinite, since an infinite group just has to contain an infinite number of elements. But some ...

The problem of maximizing a linear function over a convex polyhedron, also known as operations research or optimization theory. The general problem of convex optimization is ...

A number puzzle in which a group of arithmetical operations has some or all of its digits replaced by letters or symbols, and where the original digits must be found. In such ...

A branch of game theory dealing with strategies to maximize the outcome of a given process in the face of uncertain conditions.

A diminished polyhedron is a polyhedron in which one or more groups of associated faces (such as those comprising the top of a pyramid or cupola in the case of a Johnson ...

An n×n matrix A is an elementary matrix if it differs from the n×n identity I_n by a single elementary row or column operation.

A number which can be specified implicitly or explicitly by exponential, logarithmic, and algebraic operations.
