If f_1(x), ..., f_s(x) are irreducible polynomials with integer coefficients such that no integer n>1 divides f_1(x), ..., f_s(x) for all integers x, then there should exist ...

An orientable surface with one boundary component such that the boundary component of the surface is a given knot K. In 1934, Seifert proved that such a surface can be ...

Regular tessellations of the plane by two or more convex regular polygons such that the same polygons in the same order surround each polygon vertex are called semiregular ...

A sinusoidal spiral is a curve of the form r^n=a^ncos(ntheta), (1) with n rational, which is not a true spiral. Sinusoidal spirals were first studied by Maclaurin. Special ...

Slovin's formula, somtimes also spelled "Sloven's forumula (e.g., Altares et al. 2003, p. 13), is an ad hoc formula lacking mathematical rigor (Ryan 2013) that gives an ...

The Steiner circle is the central circle with center at the nine-point center X_5 and radius R_S=3/2R, where R is the circumradius of the reference triangle. It is the ...

A figurate number of the form StOct_n = O_n+8Te_(n-1) (1) = n(2n^2-1), (2) where O_n is an octahedral number and Te_n is a tetrahedral number. The first few are 1, 14, 51, ...

A Størmer number is a positive integer n for which the greatest prime factor p of n^2+1 is at least 2n. Every Gregory number t_x can be expressed uniquely as a sum of t_ns ...

Let U(P,Q) and V(P,Q) be Lucas sequences generated by P and Q, and define D=P^2-4Q. (1) Let n be an odd composite number with (n,D)=1, and n-(D/n)=2^sd with d odd and s>=0, ...

Given a Lucas sequence with parameters P and Q, discriminant D!=0, and roots a and b, the Sylvester cyclotomic numbers are Q_n=product_(r)(a-zeta^rb), (1) where ...
