In n dimensions for n>=5 the arrangement of hyperspheres whose convex hull has minimal content is always a "sausage" (a set of hyperspheres arranged with centers along a ...

Let x be a positive number, and define lambda(d) = mu(d)[ln(x/d)]^2 (1) f(n) = sum_(d)lambda(d), (2) where the sum extends over the divisors d of n, and mu(n) is the Möbius ...

The Sendov conjecture, proposed by Blagovest Sendov circa 1958, that for a polynomial f(z)=(z-r_1)(z-r_2)...(z-r_n) with n>=2 and each root r_k located inside the closed unit ...

A separable extension K of a field F is one in which every element's algebraic number minimal polynomial does not have multiple roots. In other words, the minimal polynomial ...

Let X be a set and S a collection of subsets of X. A subset A subset X is shattered by S if each subset B subset A of A can be expressed as the intersection of A with a ...

Find the shape of a soap film (i.e., minimal surface) which will fill two inverted conical funnels facing each other is known as Sinclair's soap film problem (Bliss 1925, p. ...

Let A be an n×n matrix over a field F. Using the three elementary row and column operations over elements in the field, the n×n matrix xI-A with entries from the principal ...

The square orthobicupola is a convex equilateral solid that is Johnson solid J_(28). The unit square orthobicupola has volume V=2+4/3sqrt(2) (1) and Dehn invariant D = ...

The standard form of a line in the Cartesian plane is given by ax+by=c for real numbers a,b,c in R. This form can be derived from any of the other forms (point-slope form, ...

A Thâbit ibn Kurrah number, sometimes called a 321-number, is a number of the form K_n=3·2^n-1. The first few for n=0, 1, ... are 2, 5, 11, 23, 47, 95, 191, 383, 767, ... ...
