Maximize the number of cookies you can cut from a given expanse of dough (Hoffman 1998, p. 173).

The plane spanned by two coordinate axes in the three-dimensional Euclidean space. The coordinate plane spanned by the x- and the y-axis is called xy-plane.

A function that joins univariate distribution functions to form multivariate distribution functions. A two-dimensional copula is a function C:I^2->I such that C(0,t)=C(t,0)=0 ...

The surface given by the parametric equations x = e^(bv)cosv+e^(av)cosucosv (1) y = e^(bv)sinv+e^(av)cosusinv (2) z = e^(av)sinu. (3) For a=b=1, the coefficients of the first ...

The first corona of a tile is the set of all tiles that have a common boundary point with that tile (including the original tile itself). The second corona is the set of ...

A measure nu of a strange attractor which allows the presence of chaos to be distinguished from random noise. It is related to the capacity dimension D and information ...

Consider a set of points X_i on an attractor, then the correlation integral is C(l)=lim_(N->infty)1/(N^2)f, where f is the number of pairs (i,j) whose distance |X_i-X_j|<l. ...

Let there be N_i observations of the ith phenomenon, where i=1, ..., p and N = sumN_i (1) y^__i = 1/(N_i)sum_(alpha)y_(ialpha) (2) y^_ = 1/Nsum_(i)sum_(alpha)y_(ialpha). (3) ...

The apodization function A(x)=cos((pix)/(2a)). Its full width at half maximum is 4a/3. Its instrument function is I(k)=(4acos(2piak))/(pi(1-16a^2k^2)), which has a maximum of ...

The closed cyclic self-intersecting hexagon formed by joining the adjacent antiparallels in the construction of the cosine circle. The sides of this hexagon have the property ...
