A system of congruences a_i mod n_i with 1<=i<=k is called a complete residue system (or covering system) if every integer y satisfies y=a_i (mod n) for at least one value of ...

A 1-form w is said to be exact in a region R if there is a function f that is defined and of class C^1 (i.e., is once continuously differentiable in R) and such that df=w.

As used in physics, the term "exact" generally refers to a solution that captures the entire physics and mathematics of a problem as opposed to one that is approximate, ...

"Exactly one" means "one and only one," sometimes also referred to as "just one" or "one and only one." J. H. Conway has also humorously suggested "onee" (one and only one) ...

2^(60)=1024^6 bytes. Although the term exabyte is sometimes used to refer to 1024^6 bytes, such usage is deprecated in favor of the standard SI naming convention of 1 exabyte ...

A binomial coefficient (N; k) is said to be exceptional if lpf(N; k)>N/k. The following table gives the exception binomial coefficients which are also good binomial ...

A Jordan algebra which is not isomorphic to a subalgebra.

The kurtosis excess of a distribution is sometimes called the excess, or excess coefficient. In graph theory, excess refers to the quantity e=n-n_l(v,g) (1) for a v-regular ...

A method which can be used to solve any quadratic congruence equation. This technique relies on the fact that solving x^2=b (mod p) is equivalent to finding a value y such ...

Also known as the difference of squares method. It was first used by Fermat and improved by Gauss. Gauss looked for integers x and y satisfying y^2=x^2-N (mod E) for various ...
