The Weingarten equations express the derivatives of the normal vector to a surface using derivatives of the position vector. Let x:U->R^3 be a regular patch, then the shape ...

An expression is called "well-defined" (or "unambiguous") if its definition assigns it a unique interpretation or value. Otherwise, the expression is said to not be ...

A generalized hypergeometric function _pF_q[alpha_1,alpha_2,...,alpha_p; beta_1,beta_2,...,beta_q;z] is said to be well-poised if p=q+1 and ...

The n-wheel complement graph W^__n is the graph complement of the n-wheel graph. For n>4, W^__n is isomorphic to the graph disjoint union of a circulant graph ...

Whipple derived a great many identities for generalized hypergeometric functions, many of which are consequently known as Whipple's identities (transformations, etc.). Among ...

(Bailey 1935, p. 25), where _7F_6(a_1,...,a_7;b_1,...,b_6) and _4F_3(a_1,...,a_4;b_1,b_2,b_3) are generalized hypergeometric functions with argument z=1 and Gamma(z) is the ...

A white bishop graph is a graph formed from possible moves of a bishop chess piece, which may make diagonal moves of any length on a chessboard (or any other board), when ...

An operation that takes two vector bundles over a fixed space and produces a new vector bundle over the same space. If E_1 and E_2 are vector bundles over B, then the Whitney ...

A surface which can be interpreted as a self-intersecting rectangle in three dimensions. The Whitney umbrella is the only stable singularity of mappings from R^2 to R^3. It ...

(d^2u)/(dz^2)+(du)/(dz)+(k/z+(1/4-m^2)/(z^2))u=0. (1) Let u=e^(-z/2)W_(k,m)(z), where W_(k,m)(z) denotes a Whittaker function. Then (1) becomes ...
