A graphoid consists of a set M of elements together with two collections C and D of nonempty subsets of M, called circuits and cocircuits respectively, such that 1. For any C ...

700 The great dodecahemicosahedron is the uniform polyhedron with Maeder index 65 (Maeder 1997), Wenninger index 102 (Wenninger 1989), Coxeter index 81 (Coxeter et al. 1954), ...

An algorithm for finding integer relations whose running time is bounded by a polynomial in the number of real variables (Ferguson and Bailey 1992). Unfortunately, it is ...

The half-altitude triangle DeltaA^'B^'C^' of a reference triangle DeltaABC is defined by letting A^' be the midpoint between vertex A and the foot of the A-altitude on side ...

A surface given by the parametric equations x(u,v) = u (1) y(u,v) = v (2) z(u,v) = 1/3u^3+uv^2+2(u^2-v^2). (3) The handkerchief surface has stationary points summarized in ...

A harmonic series is a continued fraction-like series [n;a,b,c,...] defined by x=n+1/2(a+1/3(b+1/4(c+...))) (Havil 2003, p. 99). Examples are given in the following table. c ...

A number which is simultaneously a heptagonal number H_n and triangular number T_m. Such numbers exist when 1/2n(5n-3)=1/2m(m+1). (1) Completing the square and rearranging ...

An optical illusion due to the physiologist Ewald Hering in 1861. The two horizontal lines are both straight, but they look as if they were bowed outwards. The distortion is ...

A Hermitian metric on a complex vector bundle assigns a Hermitian inner product to every fiber bundle. The basic example is the trivial bundle pi:U×C^k->U, where U is an open ...

A heterosquare is an n×n array of the integers from 1 to n^2 such that the rows, columns, and diagonals have different sums. (By contrast, in a magic square, they have the ...
