A polynomial P(x) that, when evaluated over each x in the domain of definition, results in the same value. The simplest example is P(x)=c for x in R and c a constant.

A decahedron is a polyhedron having 10 faces. Examples include the 5-trapezohedron, augmented pentagonal prism (Johnson solid J_(52)), augmented tridiminished icosahedron ...

A rewriting of a given quantity (e.g., a matrix) in terms of a combination of "simpler" quantities.

An object that is not superimposable on its mirror image is said to be dissymmetric. All asymmetric objects are dissymmetric, and an object with no improper rotation ...

Let F(n) be a family of partitions of n and let F(n,d) denote the set of partitions in F(n) with Durfee square of size d. The Durfee polynomial of F(n) is then defined as the ...

Since |(a+ib)(c+id)| = |a+ib||c+di| (1) |(ac-bd)+i(bc+ad)| = sqrt(a^2+b^2)sqrt(c^2+d^2), (2) it follows that (a^2+b^2)(c^2+d^2) = (ac-bd)^2+(bc+ad)^2 (3) = e^2+f^2. (4) This ...

The largest unit fraction, 1/2. 1/2 is a rational number with terminating decimal expansion 0.5.

The Hall-Montgomery constant is related to the multiplicative spectrum of completely multiplicative functions and has closed form delta_0 = ...

The Hamming distance between two vertices of a hypercube is the number of coordinates at which the two vertices differ.

For any function f:A->B (where A and B are any sets), the kernel (also called the null space) is defined by Ker(f)={x:x in Asuch thatf(x)=0}, so the kernel gives the elements ...
