If the period of a repeating decimal for a/p, where p is prime and a/p is a reduced fraction, has an even number of digits, then dividing the repeating portion into halves ...

Although the rigidity theorem states that if the faces of a convex polyhedron are made of metal plates and the polyhedron edges are replaced by hinges, the polyhedron would ...

A polyhedron is rigid if it cannot be continuously deformed into another configuration. A rigid polyhedron may have two or more stable forms which cannot be continuously ...

The heptanacci constant is the limiting ratio of adjacent heptanacci numbers. It is the algebraic number P = (x^7-x^6-x^5-x^4-x^3-x^2-x-1)_1 (1) = 1.99196419660... (2) (OEIS ...

The hexanacci constant is the limiting ratio of adjacent hexanacci numbers. It is the algebraic number P = (x^6-x^5-x^4-x^3-x^2-x-1)_2 (1) = 1.98358284342... (2) (OEIS ...

The pentanacci constant is the limiting ratio of adjacent pentanacci numbers. It is the algebraic number P = (x^5-x^4-x^3-x^2-x-1)_1 (1) = 1.96594823... (2) (OEIS A103814), ...

The base-60 notational system for representing real numbers. A base-60 number system was used by the Babylonians and is preserved in the modern measurement of time (hours, ...

The algebraics, sometimes denoted A (Derbyshire 2004, p. 173), are the set of algebraic numbers. The set of algebraic numbers is implemented in the Wolfram Language as ...

Let F_n be the nth Fibonacci number. Then the sequence {F_n}_(n=2)^infty={1,2,3,5,8,...} is complete, even if one is restricted to subsequences in which no two consecutive ...

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 ...
