An algebraically soluble equation of odd prime degree which is irreducible in the natural field possesses either 1. Only a single real root, or 2. All real roots.

Given n mutually exclusive events A_1, ..., A_n whose probabilities sum to unity, then P(B)=P(B|A_1)P(A_1)+...+P(B|A_n)P(A_n), where B is an arbitrary event, and P(B|A_i) is ...

A box can be packed with a harmonic brick a×ab×abc iff the box has dimensions ap×abq×abcr for some natural numbers p, q, r (i.e., the box is a multiple of the brick).

Let g(x)=(1-x^2)(1-k^2x^2). Then int_0^a(dx)/(sqrt(g(x)))+int_0^b(dx)/(sqrt(g(x)))=int_0^c(dx)/(sqrt(g(x))), where c=(bsqrt(g(a))+asqrt(g(b)))/(sqrt(1-k^2a^2b^2)).

Let A, B, and C be three circles in the plane, and let X be any circle touching B and C. Then build up a chain of circles such that Y:CAX, Z:ABY, X^':BCZ, Y^':CAX^', ...

If a polynomial P(x) is divided by (x-r), then the remainder is a constant given by P(r).

Let any finite or infinite set of points having no finite limit point be prescribed, and associate with each of its points a definite positive integer as its order. Then ...

An elementary theorem in geometry whose name means "asses' bridge," perhaps in reference to the fact that fools would be unable to pass this point in their geometric studies. ...

A non-Euclidean geometry, also called Lobachevsky-Bolyai-Gauss geometry, having constant sectional curvature -1. This geometry satisfies all of Euclid's postulates except the ...

Let G=SL(n,C). If lambda in Z^n is the highest weight of an irreducible holomorphic representation V of G, (i.e., lambda is a dominant integral weight), then the G-map ...
