In the usual diagram of inclusion homomorphisms, if the upper two maps are injective, then so are the other two. More formally, consider a space X which is expressible as the ...

Divide a triangle by its three medians into six smaller triangles. Surprisingly, the circumcenters O_(AB), O_(BA), etc. of the six circumcircles of these smaller triangles ...

Van der Corput sequences are a means of generating sequences of points that are maximally self-avoiding (a.k.a. quasirandom sequences). In the one-dimensional case, the ...

Van der Corput's constant is given by m = 2sqrt(2)int_0^(sqrt(pi/2-c))cos(x^2+c)dx (1) = 2pi[coscC(phi)-sincS(phi)] (2) = 3.3643175781... (3) (OEIS A143305), where C(x) and ...

The van der Grinten projection is a map projection given by the transformation x = (1) y = sgn(phi)(pi|PQ-Asqrt((A^2+1)(P^2+A^2)-Q^2)|)/(P^2+A^2), (2) where A = ...

The van der Pol equation is an ordinary differential equation that can be derived from the Rayleigh differential equation by differentiating and setting y=y^'. It is an ...

A continuous distribution defined on the range x in [0,2pi) with probability density function P(x)=(e^(bcos(x-a)))/(2piI_0(b)), (1) where I_0(x) is a modified Bessel function ...

A diamond-shaped neighborhood that can be used to define a set of cells surrounding a given cell (x_0,y_0) that may affect the evolution of a two-dimensional cellular ...

A von Neumann regular ring is a ring R such that for all a in R, there exists a b in R satisfying a=aba (Jacobson 1989, p. 196). More formally, a ring R is regular in the ...

The Abel prize is a new mathematics prize of the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters, dedicated to the memory of Niels Henrik Abel (1802-1829) on the occasion of the ...
