A Poulet number whose divisors d all satisfy d|2^d-2. The first few are 341, 1387, 2047, 2701, 3277, 4033, 4369, 4681, 5461, 7957, 8321, ... (OEIS A050217).

A symmetry group is a group of symmetry-preserving operations, i.e., rotations, reflections, and inversions (Arfken 1985, p. 245).

If n>1, (a,n)=1 (i.e., a and n are relatively prime), and m is the least integer >sqrt(n), then there exist an x and y such that ay=+/-x (mod n) where 0<x<m and 0<y<m (Nagell ...

A ring of fractions that coincides with the localization with respect to the set of all non-zero divisors.

One of Cantor's ordinal numbers omega, omega+1, omega+2, ..., omega+omega, omega+omega+1, ... which is "larger" than any whole number.

Let S be a nonempty set, then an ultrafilter on S is a nonempty collection F of subsets of S having the following properties: 1. emptyset not in F. 2. If A,B in F, then A ...

A uniquely complemented lattice is a complemented lattice (L, ^ , v ,0,1,^') that satisfies ( forall x in L)( forall y in L)[(x ^ y=0) ^ (x v y=1)]=>y=x^'. The class of ...

The unlink, also called the trivial link, of n components consist of n disjoint circles in a plane (Rolfsen 1976, p. 65).

Let (K,|·|) be a valuated field. The valuation group G is defined to be the set G={|x|:x in K,x!=0}, with the group operation being multiplication. It is a subgroup of the ...

Let (K,|·|) be a non-Archimedean field. Its valuation ring R is defined to be R={x in K:|x|<=1}. The valuation ring has maximal ideal M={x in K:|x|<1}, and the field R/M is ...
