A number of the form 2^n-1 obtained by setting x=1 in a Fermat-Lucas polynomial, more commonly known as a Mersenne number.

The w-polynomials obtained by setting p(x)=3x and q(x)=-2 in the Lucas polynomial sequence. Setting f_n(1)=f_n (1) give a Fermat-Lucas number. The first few Fermat-Lucas ...

A plane curve of the form y=x^n. For n>0, the curve is a generalized parabola; for n<0 it is a generalized hyperbola.

The W-polynomials obtained by setting p(x)=3x and q(x)=-2 in the Lucas polynomial sequence. The first few Fermat polynomials are F_1(x) = 1 (1) F_2(x) = 3x (2) F_3(x) = ...

In a given acute triangle DeltaABC, locate a point whose distances from A, B, and C have the smallest possible sum. The solution is the point from which each side subtends an ...

The inverse curve of Fermat's spiral with the origin taken as the inversion center is the lituus.

A distribution which arises in the study of half-integer spin particles in physics, P(k)=(k^s)/(e^(k-mu)+1). (1) Its integral is given by int_0^infty(k^sdk)/(e^(k-mu)+1) = ...

Ferrari's identity is the algebraic identity

An alternative name for an associated Legendre polynomial.

The Feuerbach point X_(11) (center of the Feuerbach hyperbola) lies on the nine-point circle. The Feuerbach antipode is the antipode of this point on nine-point circle. It ...
