z^p-y^p=(z-y)(z-zetay)...(z-zeta^(p-1)y), where zeta=e^(2pii/p) (a de Moivre number) and p is a prime.

If a Sylow 2-subgroup T of G lies in a unique maximal 2-local P of G, then P is a "strongly embedded" subgroup of G, and G is known.

Johnson solid J_(44).

The boundary of complex hyperbolic 2-space.

A "line" having imaginary coefficients in its equations which can arise in algebraic geometry.

The partial differential equation u_t+u_(xxx)-6uu_x=0 (1) (Lamb 1980; Zwillinger 1997, p. 175), often abbreviated "KdV." This is a nondimensionalized version of the equation ...

A linear recurrence equation is a recurrence equation on a sequence of numbers {x_n} expressing x_n as a first-degree polynomial in x_k with k<n. For example ...

Let B_t={B_t(omega)/omega in Omega}, t>=0, be one-dimensional Brownian motion. Integration with respect to B_t was defined by Itô (1951). A basic result of the theory is that ...

The unit of solid angle. The solid angle corresponding to all of space being subtended is 4pi steradians.

If 0<=g(x)<=1 and g is nonincreasing on the interval [0, 1], then for all possible values of a and b, int_0^1g(x^(1/(a+b)))dx>=int_0^1g(x^(1/a))dxint_0^1g(x^(1/b))dx.
