The Suzuki group is the sporadic group Suz of order |Suz| = 448345497600 (1) = 2^(13)·3^7·5^2·7·11·13. (2) It is implemented in the Wolfram Language as SuzukiGroupSuz[].

The Thompson group is the sporadic group Th of order |Th| = 90745943887872000 (1) = 2^(15)·3^(10)·5^3·7^2·13·19·31. (2) It is implemented in the Wolfram Language as ...

Dyads extend vectors to provide an alternative description to second tensor rank tensors. A dyad D(A,B) of a pair of vectors A and B is defined by D(A,B)=AB. The dot product ...

An inflection point is a point on a curve at which the sign of the curvature (i.e., the concavity) changes. Inflection points may be stationary points, but are not local ...

A method of determining coefficients alpha_k in a power series solution y(x)=y_0(x)+sum_(k=1)^nalpha_ky_k(x) of the ordinary differential equation L^~[y(x)]=0 so that ...

The Burnside problem originated with Burnside (1902), who wrote, "A still undecided point in the theory of discontinuous groups is whether the group order of a group may be ...

Let C be a curve, let O be a fixed point (the pole), and let O^' be a second fixed point. Let P and P^' be points on a line through O meeting C at Q such that P^'Q=QP=QO^'. ...

Given an ordinary differential equation y^'=f(x,y), the slope field for that differential equation is the vector field that takes a point (x,y) to a unit vector with slope ...

The term "characteristic" has many different uses in mathematics. In general, it refers to some property that inherently describes a given mathematical object, for example ...

The (circular) helicoid is the minimal surface having a (circular) helix as its boundary. It is the only ruled minimal surface other than the plane (Catalan 1842, do Carmo ...
