If a is a point in the open unit disk, then the Blaschke factor is defined by B_a(z)=(z-a)/(1-a^_z), where a^_ is the complex conjugate of a. Blaschke factors allow the ...

A Brunnian link is a set of n linked loops such that each proper sublink is trivial, so that the removal of any component leaves a set of trivial unlinked unknots. The ...

A map f between topological spaces that maps closed sets to closed sets. If f is bijective, then f is closed <==>f is open <==>f^(-1) is continuous, where f^(-1) denotes the ...

Confocal conics are conic sections sharing a common focus. Any two confocal central conics are orthogonal (Ogilvy 1990, p. 77).

A cube 12-compound can be constructed from the vertices of the first dodecahedron 2-compound. It will be implemented in a future version of the Wolfram Language as ...

A figurate number of the form 4n^2-3n. The first few are 1, 10, 27, 52, 85, ... (OEIS A001107). The generating function giving the decagonal numbers is ...

A delta sequence is a sequence of strongly peaked functions for which lim_(n->infty)int_(-infty)^inftydelta_n(x)f(x)dx=f(0) (1) so that in the limit as n->infty, the ...

The depth of a box is the horizontal distance from front to back (usually not necessarily defined to be smaller than the width, the horizontal distance from side to side).

A set S of positive integers is said to be Diophantine iff there exists a polynomial Q with integral coefficients in m>=1 indeterminates such that ...

Given the direct sum of additive Abelian groups A direct sum B, A and B are called direct summands. The map i_1:A-->A direct sum B defined by i(a)=a direct sum 0 is called ...
