There are (at least) two equations known as Sommerfeld's formula. The first is J_nu(z)=1/(2pi)int_(-eta+iinfty)^(2pi-eta+iinfty)e^(izcost)e^(inu(t-pi/2))dt, where J_nu(z) is ...

where R[mu+nu-lambda+1]>0, R[lambda]>-1, 0<a<b, J_nu(x) is a Bessel function of the first kind, Gamma(x) is the gamma function, and _2F_1(a,b;c;x) is a hypergeometric ...

The south pole is the point on a sphere with minimum z-coordinate for a given coordinate system. For a rotating sphere like the Earth, the natural coordinate system is ...

The space join of a topological space X and a point P, C(X)=X*P.

A nickname for the one-sheeted hyperboloid due to Samuel (1988, p. 95).

Sparklines are word-like graphics that have an intensity of visual distinctions comparable to words or letters (Tufte 2006, p. 4).

An affine transformation that preserves area.

A Jordan algebra which is isomorphic to a subalgebra.

An integer matrix whose entries satisfy a_(ij)={0 if j>i+1; -1 if j=i+1; 0 or 1 if j<=i. (1) There are 2^(n-1) special minimal matrices of size n×n.
