Let the characteristic polynomial of an n×n complex matrix A be written in the form P(lambda) = |lambdaI-A| (1) = ...

A shuffling algorithm used in a class of random number generators.

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 ...

Each of the maps in a chain complex ...->C_(i+1)->^(d_(i+1))C_i->^(d_i)C_(i-1)->... is known as a boundary operator.

When n is an integer >=0, then J_n(z) and J_(n+m)(z) have no common zeros other than at z=0 for m an integer >=1, where J_n(z) is a Bessel function of the first kind. The ...

Let where (alpha)_j is a Pochhammer symbol, and let alpha be a negative integer. Then S(alpha,beta,m;z)=(Gamma(beta+1-m))/(Gamma(alpha+beta+1-m)), where Gamma(z) is the gamma ...

Brun's sieve was refined by J. B. Rosser, G. Ricci, and others.

The conjecture made by Belgian mathematician Eugène Charles Catalan in 1844 that 8 and 9 (2^3 and 3^2) are the only consecutive powers (excluding 0 and 1). In other words, ...

If f(x,y) is an analytic function in a neighborhood of the point (x_0,y_0) (i.e., it can be expanded in a series of nonnegative integer powers of (x-x_0) and (y-y_0)), find a ...
