The "complete" gamma function Gamma(a) can be generalized to the incomplete gamma function Gamma(a,x) such that Gamma(a)=Gamma(a,0). This "upper" incomplete gamma function is ...

Let A^' be the outermost vertex of the regular pentagon erected inwards on side BC of a reference triangle DeltaABC. Similarly, define B^' and C^'. The triangle ...

The Lester circle is the circle on which the circumcenter C, nine-point center N, and the first and second Fermat points X and X^' lie (Kimberling 1998, pp. 229-230). Besides ...

The limaçon trisectrix is a trisectrix that is a special case of the rose curve with n=1/3 (possibly with translation, rotation, and scaling). It was studied by Archimedes, ...

By analogy with the log sine function, define the log cosine function by C_n=int_0^(pi/2)[ln(cosx)]^ndx. (1) The first few cases are given by C_1 = -1/2piln2 (2) C_2 = ...

A set of n magic circles is a numbering of the intersections of the n circles such that the sum over all intersections is the same constant for all circles. The above sets of ...

A number which is simultaneously a nonagonal number N_m and hexagonal number Hex_n and therefore satisfies the Diophantine equation 1/2m(7m-5)=n(2n-1). (1) Completing the ...

Let alpha and beta be any ordinal numbers, then ordinal exponentiation is defined so that if beta=0 then alpha^beta=1. If beta is not a limit ordinal, then choose gamma such ...

The pentagonal antiprism is the antiprism having a regular pentagon for the top and bottom bases. It is also the uniform polyhedron with Maeder index 77 (Maeder 1997) and ...

Let f:R×R->R be a one-parameter family of C^3 maps satisfying f(-x,mu)=-f(x,mu) (1) (partialf)/(partialx)|_(mu=0, x=0)=0 (2) (partial^2f)/(partialxpartialmu)|_(mu=0, x=0)>0 ...
