Let G=SL(n,C). If lambda in Z^n is the highest weight of an irreducible holomorphic representation V of G, (i.e., lambda is a dominant integral weight), then the G-map ...

Every continuous map f:S^n->R^n must identify a pair of antipodal points.

The function Pi_(a,b)(x)=H(x-a)-H(x-b) which is equal to 1 for a<=x<=b and 0 otherwise. Here H(x) is the Heaviside step function. The special case Pi_(-1/2,1/2)(x) gives the ...

A quartic curve with implicit equation (a^2)/(x^2)-(b^2)/(y^2)=1 (1) or a^2y^2-b^2x^2=x^2y^2 (2) and a,b>0. In parametric form, x = +/-acost (3) y = bcott. (4) The curvature ...

A Mandelbrot set-like fractal obtained by iterating the map z_(n+1)=z_n^3+(z_0-1)z_n-z_0.

If the cusp of the cardioid is taken as the inversion center, the cardioid inverts to a parabola.

The curve a hanging flexible wire or chain assumes when supported at its ends and acted upon by a uniform gravitational force. The word catenary is derived from the Latin ...

Let t be a nonnegative integer and let x_1, ..., x_t be nonzero elements of Z_p which are not necessarily distinct. Then the number of elements of Z_p that can be written as ...

A change of coordinates matrix, also called a transition matrix, specifies the transformation from one vector basis to another under a change of basis. For example, if ...

The intersection product for classes of rational equivalence between cycles on an algebraic variety.
