Meißner (1911) showed how to modify the Reuleaux tetrahedron (which is not a solid of constant width) to form a surface of constant width by replacing three of its edge arcs ...

Polynomials m_k(x;beta,c) which form the Sheffer sequence for g(t) = ((1-c)/(1-ce^t))^beta (1) f(t) = (1-e^t)/(c^(-1)-e^t) (2) and have generating function ...

A variable x is memoryless with respect to t if, for all s with t!=0, P(x>s+t|x>t)=P(x>s). (1) Equivalently, (P(x>s+t,x>t))/(P(x>t)) = P(x>s) (2) P(x>s+t) = P(x>s)P(x>t). (3) ...

For triangles in the plane, AD·BE·CF=BD·CE·AF. (1) For spherical triangles, sinAD·sinBE·sinCF=sinBD·sinCE·sinAF. (2) This can be generalized to n-gons P=[V_1,...,V_n], where ...

The Mercator series, also called the Newton-Mercator series (Havil 2003, p. 33), is the Taylor series for the natural logarithm ln(1+x) = sum_(k=1)^(infty)((-1)^(k+1))/kx^k ...

A merit function, also known as a figure-of-merit function, is a function that measures the agreement between data and the fitting model for a particular choice of the ...

A meromorphic function is a single-valued function that is analytic in all but possibly a discrete subset of its domain, and at those singularities it must go to infinity ...

The metabiaugmented dodecahedron is a convex equilateral solid that is Johnson solid J_(60). The unit metabiaugmented dodecahedron has volume V=1/6(25+11sqrt(5)) (1) and Dehn ...

The metabiaugmented hexagonal prism is a convex equilateral solid that is Johnson solid J_(56). The metabiaugmented hexagonal prism has volume V=1/6(2sqrt(2)+9sqrt(3)) (1) ...

The metabiaugmented truncated dodecahedron is a convex equilateral solid that is Johnson solid J_(70). The unit metabiaugmented truncated dodecahedron has volume ...
