(1) where H_n(x) is a Hermite polynomial (Watson 1933; Erdélyi 1938; Szegö 1975, p. 380). The generating function ...

An algorithm for finding roots which retains that prior estimate for which the function value has opposite sign from the function value at the current best estimate of the ...

The geometric centroid of the first Morley triangle, which is also the center of Morley's circle, is called the first Morley center. It has triangle center function ...

Polynomials O_n(x) that can be defined by the sum O_n(x)=1/4sum_(k=0)^(|_n/2_|)(n(n-k-1)!)/(k!)(1/2x)^(2k-n-1) (1) for n>=1, where |_x_| is the floor function. They obey the ...

The noncentral chi-squared distribution with noncentrality parameter lambda is given by P_r(x) = ...

The outer Napoleon circle, a term coined here for the first time, is the circumcircle of the outer Napoleon triangle. It has center at the triangle centroid G (and is thus ...

A skewed distribution which is similar to the binomial distribution when p!=q (Abramowitz and Stegun 1972, p. 930). y=k(t+A)^(A^2-1)e^(-At), (1) for t in [0,infty) where A = ...

The mean of a distribution with probability density function P(x) is the first raw moment mu_1^', defined by mu=<x>, (1) where <f> is the expectation value. For a continuous ...

A random variable is a measurable function from a probability space (S,S,P) into a measurable space (S^',S^') known as the state space (Doob 1996). Papoulis (1984, p. 88) ...

The consideration of the result of a numerical calculation as a function of an adjustable parameter (usually the step size). The function can then be fitted and evaluated at ...
