The substitution of x=w-p/(3w) (1) into the standard form cubic equation x^3+px=q. (2) The result reduces the cubic to the equation w^3-(p^3)/(27w^3)-q=0, (3) which is easily ...

The base-20 notational system for representing real numbers. The digits used to represent numbers using vigesimal notation are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F, ...

A diagonal slash resembling the solidus, but with slightly less slant, used to denote division for in-line equations such as a/b, 1/(x-1)^2, etc.

An abstract machine that is implemented in software is termed a virtual machine.

Let S be a set of simple polygonal obstacles in the plane, then the nodes of the visibility graph of S are just the vertices of S, and there is an edge (called a visibility ...

A set of identities involving n-dimensional visible lattice points was discovered by Campbell (1994). Examples include product_((a,b)=1; ...

For a point P inside an equilateral triangle DeltaABC, the sum of the perpendiculars p_i from P to the sides of the triangle is equal to the altitude h. This result is simply ...

A conjecture which treats the heights of points relative to a canonical class of a curve defined over the integers.

If the top and bottom bases of a solid are equal in area, lie in parallel planes, and every section of the solid parallel to the bases is equal in area to that of the base, ...

Vorobiev's theorem states that if F_l^2|F_k, then F_l|k, where F_n is a Fibonacci number and a|b means a divides b. The theorem was discovered by Vorobiev in 1942, but not ...
