The golden ratio conjugate, also called the silver ratio, is the quantity Phi = 1/phi (1) = phi-1 (2) = 2/(1+sqrt(5)) (3) = (sqrt(5)-1)/2 (4) = 0.6180339887... (5) (OEIS ...

The mathematical golden rule states that, for any fraction, both numerator and denominator may be multiplied by the same number without changing the fraction's value.

The discontinuous solution of the surface of revolution area minimization problem for surfaces connecting two circles. When the circles are sufficiently far apart, the usual ...

Regardless of where one white and one black square are deleted from an ordinary 8×8 chessboard, the reduced board can always be covered exactly with 31 dominoes (of dimension ...

G = int_0^infty(e^(-u))/(1+u)du (1) = -eEi(-1) (2) = 0.596347362... (3) (OEIS A073003), where Ei(x) is the exponential integral. Stieltjes showed it has the continued ...

A binomial coefficient (N; k) with k>=2 is called good if its least prime factor satisfies lpf(N; k)>k (Erdős et al. 1993). This is equivalent to the requirement that GCD((N; ...

Another name for the confluent hypergeometric function of the second kind, defined by where Gamma(x) is the gamma function and _1F_1(a;b;z) is the confluent hypergeometric ...

A unit of angular measure in which the angle of an entire circle is 400 gradians. A right angle is therefore 100 gradians. A gradian is sometimes also called a gon or a grade.

The four-dimensional version of the gradient, encountered frequently in general relativity and special relativity, is del _mu=[1/cpartial/(partialt); partial/(partialx); ...

The graph complement of a graph hole. Graph antiholes are called even if they have an even number of vertices and odd if they have an odd number of vertices (Chvátal). No odd ...
