The general orthogonal group GO_n(q,F) is the subgroup of all elements of the projective general linear group that fix the particular nonsingular quadratic form F. The ...

On a compact oriented Finsler manifold without boundary, every cohomology class has a unique harmonic representation. The dimension of the space of all harmonic forms of ...

The necessary and sufficient condition that an algebraic curve has an algebraic involute is that the arc length is a two-valued algebraic function of the coordinates of the ...

A two-dimensional map similar to the Hénon map but with the term -alphax_n^2 replaced by -alpha|x_n|. It is given by the equations x_(n+1) = 1-alpha|x_n|+y_n (1) y_(n+1) = ...

A necessary and sufficient condition for all the eigenvalues of a real n×n matrix A to have negative real parts is that the equation A^(T)V+VA=-I has as a solution where V is ...

A method used by Gauss to solve the quadratic Diophantine equation of the form mx^2+ny^2=A (Dickson 2005, pp. 391 and 407).

Generalizes the secant method of root finding by using quadratic 3-point interpolation q=(x_n-x_(n-1))/(x_(n-1)-x_(n-2)). (1) Then define A = ...

A function f(m) is called multiplicative if (m,m^')=1 (i.e., the statement that m and m^' are relatively prime) implies f(mm^')=f(m)f(m^') (Wilf 1994, p. 58). Examples of ...

An octic curve is an algebraic curve of order eight. The pear curve is an example of an octic curve.

A quadratic surface given by the equation x^2+2rz=0.
