For the parametric representation x = (2t^2)/(1+t^2) (1) y = (2t^3)/(1+t^2), (2) the catacaustic of this curve from the radiant point (8a,0) is given by x = ...

An equation of the form y=ax^3+bx^2+cx+d, (1) where two of the roots of the equation coincide (and all three are therefore real), i.e., y = a(x-r_1)^2(x-r_2) (2) = ...

Characterized by allowing only integer values.

The derivative (deltaL)/(deltaq)=(partialL)/(partialq)-d/(dt)((partialL)/(partialq^.)) appearing in the Euler-Lagrange differential equation.

A method which can be used to solve any quadratic congruence equation. This technique relies on the fact that solving x^2=b (mod p) is equivalent to finding a value y such ...

Ferrari's identity is the algebraic identity

The functional derivative is a generalization of the usual derivative that arises in the calculus of variations. In a functional derivative, instead of differentiating a ...

An algebraic equation is algebraically solvable iff its group is solvable. In order that an irreducible equation of prime degree be solvable by radicals, it is necessary and ...

The Diophantine equation x^2+y^2=p can be solved for p a prime iff p=1 (mod 4) or p=2. The representation is unique except for changes of sign or rearrangements of x and y. ...

A formula for numerical solution of differential equations, (1) where k_1 = hf(x_n,y_n) (2) k_2 = hf(x_n+1/2h,y_n+1/2k_1) (3) k_3 = ...
