A finite, increasing sequence of integers {a_1,...,a_m} such that (a_i-1)|(a_1...a_(m-1)) for i=1, ..., m, where m|n indicates that m divides n. A Carmichael sequence has ...

If a and n are relatively prime so that the greatest common divisor GCD(a,n)=1, then a^(lambda(n))=1 (mod n), where lambda is the Carmichael function.

The function given by CK_n(x)=cos(nxcos^(-1)x), where n is an integer and -1<x<1.

The operating of shifting the leading digits of an addition into the next column to the left when the sum of that column exceeds a single digit (i.e., 9 in base 10).

The relationship Sq^i(x cup y)=Sigma_(j+k=i)Sq^j(x) cup Sq^k(y) encountered in the definition of the steenrod algebra.

The antisymmetric parts of the Christoffel symbol of the second kind Gamma^lambda_(munu).

A Cartesian curve is a curve specified in Cartesian coordinates. The term "Cartesian curve" is sometimes also used to refer to the Cartesian ovals.

An operator Gamma=sum_(i=1)^me_i^Ru^(iR) on a representation R of a Lie algebra.

The Casoratian of sequences x_n^((1)), x_n^((2)), ..., x_n^((k)) is defined by the k×k determinant C(x_n^((1)),x_n^((2)),...,x_n^((k))) =|x_n^((1)) x_n^((2)) ... x_n^((k)); ...

A map projection defined by x = sin^(-1)[cosphisin(lambda-lambda_0)] (1) y = tan^(-1)[(tanphi)/(cos(lambda-lambda_0))]. (2) The inverse formulas are phi = sin^(-1)(sinDcosx) ...
