Every smooth manifold M has a tangent bundle TM, which consists of the tangent space TM_p at all points p in M. Since a tangent space TM_p is the set of all tangent vectors ...

A straight line is tangent to a given curve f(x) at a point x_0 on the curve if the line passes through the point (x_0,f(x_0)) on the curve and has slope f^'(x_0), where ...

A Tauberian theorem is a theorem that deduces the convergence of an series on the basis of the properties of the function it defines and any kind of auxiliary hypothesis ...

A number of four-tetrahedron compounds can be constructed by rotating about the center-centroid lines of each face. Three such compounds are shown above for rotations by ...

The tetrahemihexahedron is the uniform polyhedron with Maeder index 4 (Maeder 1997), Wenninger index 67 (Wenninger 1989), Coxeter index 36 (Coxeter et al. 1954), and Har'El ...

The Theodorus spiral, also known as the Einstein spiral, Pythagorean spiral, square root spiral, or--to contrast it with certain continuous analogs--the discrete spiral of ...

The triangle function is the function Lambda(x) = {0 |x|>=1; 1-|x| |x|<1 (1) = Pi(x)*Pi(x) (2) = Pi(x)*H(x+1/2)-Pi(x)*H(x-1/2), (3) where Pi(x) is the rectangle function, ...

The equilateral triaugmented triangular prism is the Johnson solid J_(51) constructed by erecting a regular tetrahedron on each square face of an equilateral triangular ...

The functions (also called the circular functions) comprising trigonometry: the cosecant cscx, cosine cosx, cotangent cotx, secant secx, sine sinx, and tangent tanx. However, ...

The truncated dodecadodecahedron, also called the quasitruncated dodecahedron, is the uniform polyhedron with Maeder index 59 (Maeder 1997), Wenninger index 98 (Wenninger ...
