A quartic surface named after its resemblance to the liturgical headdress worn by bishops and given by the equation 4x^2(x^2+y^2+z^2)-y^2(1-y^2-z^2)=0.

A mixed graph in which both directed and undirected edges may exist. If only directed edges exist, the graph is called a directed graph. If only undirected edges exist, it is ...

A partial derivative of second or greater order with respect to two or more different variables, for example f_(xy)=(partial^2f)/(partialxpartialy). If the mixed partial ...
