The second-order ordinary differential equation (1+x^2)^2y^('')+lambday=0 (Hille 1969, p. 357; Zwillinger 1997, p. 122).

A basis for the real numbers R, considered as a vector space over the rationals Q, i.e., a set of real numbers {U_alpha} such that every real number beta has a unique ...

A non-Abelian group all of whose subgroups are self-conjugate.

A linear combination of basis quaternions with integer coefficients.

Consider a one-dimensional Hamiltonian map of the form H(p,q)=1/2p^2+V(q), (1) which satisfies Hamilton's equations q^. = (partialH)/(partialp) (2) p^. = ...

A binary Hamming code H_r of length n=2^r-1 (with r>=2) is a linear code with parity-check matrix H whose columns consist of all nonzero binary vectors of length r, each used ...

The Hamming distance between two vertices of a hypercube is the number of coordinates at which the two vertices differ.

A handlebody of type (n,k) is an n-dimensional manifold that is attained from the standard n-disk by attaching only k-D handles.

An addition chain for which there is a subset H of members such that each member of the chain uses the largest element of H which is less than the member.

A number n for which a shortest chain exists (which is also a Hansen chain) is called a Hansen number.
