An amazing pandigital approximation to e that is correct to 18457734525360901453873570 decimal digits is given by (1+9^(-4^(7·6)))^(3^(2^(85))), (1) found by R. Sabey in 2004 ...

A polynomial is said to be irreducible if it cannot be factored into nontrivial polynomials over the same field. For example, in the field of rational polynomials Q[x] (i.e., ...

The orthogonal polynomials on the interval [-1,1] associated with the weighting functions w(x) = (1-x^2)^(-1/2) (1) w(x) = (1-x^2)^(1/2) (2) w(x) = sqrt((1-x)/(1+x)), (3) ...

Although the inner shaded region has the same area as the outer shaded annulus, it appears to be larger. Since the rings are equally spaced, A_(inner) = pi·3^2=9pi (1) ...

An equation of the form y=ax^3+bx^2+cx+d, (1) where the three roots are real and distinct, i.e., y = a(x-r_1)(x-r_2)(x-r_3) (2) = ...

The Diophantine equation x^2+y^2=p can be solved for p a prime iff p=1 (mod 4) or p=2. The representation is unique except for changes of sign or rearrangements of x and y. ...

The Held group is the sporadic group He of order |He| = 4030387200 (1) = 2^(10)·3^3·5^2·7^3·17. (2) It is implemented in the Wolfram Language as HeldGroupHe[].

A surface constructed by placing a family of figure-eight curves into R^3 such that the first and last curves reduce to points. The surface has parametric equations x(u,v) = ...

Let the speed sigma of a closed curve on the unit sphere S^2 never vanish. Then the tangent indicatrix, also called the tantrix, tau=(sigma^.)/(|sigma^.|) is another closed ...

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 ...
