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 ...

For every positive integer n, there is a unique finite sequence of distinct nonconsecutive (not necessarily positive) integers k_1, ..., k_m such that ...

Endraß surfaces are a pair of octic surfaces which have 168 ordinary double points. This is the maximum number known to exist for an octic surface, although the rigorous ...

The word residue is used in a number of different contexts in mathematics. Two of the most common uses are the complex residue of a pole, and the remainder of a congruence. ...

Let f be analytic on the unit disk, and assume that 1. |f(z)|<=1 for all z and 2. f(0)=0. Then |f(z)|<=|z| and |f^'(0)|<=1. If either |f(z)|=|z| for some z!=0 or if ...

A bitangent is a line that is tangent to a curve at two distinct points. Aa general plane quartic curve has 28 bitangents in the complex projective plane. However, as shown ...

Given a square complex or real matrix A, a matrix norm ||A|| is a nonnegative number associated with A having the properties 1. ||A||>0 when A!=0 and ||A||=0 iff A=0, 2. ...

Each of the maps in a chain complex ...->C_(i+1)->^(d_(i+1))C_i->^(d_i)C_(i-1)->... is known as a boundary operator.

The set closure St^_v of a star Stv at a vertex v of a simplicial complex K.

A Hermitian inner product space is a complex vector space with a Hermitian inner product.
