For a group G, consider a subgroup H with elements h_i and an element x of G not in H, then xh_i for i=1, 2, ... constitute the left coset of the subgroup H with respect to x.

Any of the three standard forms in which an elliptic integral can be expressed.

The Leonine triangle DeltaX_AX_BX_C (a term coined here for the first time), is the Cevian triangle of Kimberling center X_(598). It is the polar triangle of the Lemoine ...

A lens space L(p,q) is the 3-manifold obtained by gluing the boundaries of two solid tori together such that the meridian of the first goes to a (p,q)-curve on the second, ...

Two or more functions, equations, or vectors f_1, f_2, ..., which are not linearly dependent, i.e., cannot be expressed in the form a_1f_1+a_2f_2+...+a_nf_n=0 with a_1, a_2, ...

A statement letter or a negation of a statement letter (Mendelson 1997, p. 30).

Little-omega notation is the inverse of the Landau symbol o, i.e., f(n) in o(phi(n)) <==> phi(n) in omega(f(n)).

The conjecture that the maximum local density is given by rho_(dodecahedron).

A local minimum, also called a relative minimum, is a minimum within some neighborhood that need not be (but may be) a global minimum.
