A polygonal number of the form N_n=n(7n-5)/2, also called an enneagonal number. The first few are 1, 9, 24, 46, 75, 111, 154, 204, ... (OEIS A001106). The generating function ...

A number which is simultaneously a nonagonal number N_m and octagonal number O_n and therefore satisfies the Diophantine equation 1/2m(7m-5)=n(3n-2). (1) Completing the ...

A number which is simultaneously a nonagonal number N_m and pentagonal number P_n and therefore satisfies the Diophantine equation 1/2m(7m-5)=1/2n(3n-1). (1) Completing the ...

A number which is simultaneously a nonagonal number N_m and a square number S_n and therefore satisfies the Diophantine equation 1/2m(7m-5)=n^2. (1) Completing the square and ...

A number which is simultaneously a nonagonal number N_m and a triangular number T_n and therefore satisfies the Diophantine equation. 1/2m(7m-5)=1/2n(1+n). (1) Completing the ...

A knot which is not alternating. Unlike alternating knots, flype moves are not sufficient to pass between all minimal diagrams of a given nonalternating knot (Hoste et al. ...

A proof which indirectly shows a mathematical object exists without providing a specific example or algorithm for producing an example. Nonconstructive proofs are also called ...

A *-algebra A of operators on a Hilbert space H is said to act nondegenerately if whenever Txi=0 for all T in A, it necessarily implies that xi=0. Algebras A which act ...

A nondeterministic Turing machine is a "parallel" Turing machine that can take many computational paths simultaneously, with the restriction that the parallel Turing machines ...

A set in which no element divides the sum of any nonempty subset of the other elements. For example, {2,3,5} is dividing, since 2|(3+5) (and 5|(2+3)), but {4,6,7} is ...
