A description of an object by properties that are different from those mentioned in its definition, but are equivalent to them. The following list gives a number of examples. ...

The orthogonal polynomials defined by c_n^((mu))(x) = _2F_0(-n,-x;;-mu^(-1)) (1) = ((-1)^n)/(mu^n)(x-n+1)_n_1F_1(-n;x-n+1;mu), (2) where (x)_n is the Pochhammer symbol ...

A class of formal series expansions in derivatives of a distribution Psi(t) which may (but need not) be the normal distribution function Phi(t)=1/(sqrt(2pi))e^(-t^2/2) (1) ...

A check which can be used to verify correct computations in a table of grouped classes. For example, consider the following table with specified class limits and frequencies ...

From the point of view of coordinate charts, the notion of tangent space is quite simple. The tangent space consists of all directions, or velocities, a particle can take. In ...

The number of coincidences of a (nu,nu^') correspondence of value gamma on a curve of curve genus p is given by nu+nu^'+2pgamma.

If a one-parameter family of curves has index N and class M, the number tangent to a curve of order n_1 and class m_1 in general position is m_1N+n_1M.

A triangle and its polar triangle with respect to a conic are perspective.

If the trilinear polars of the polygon vertices of a triangle are distinct from the respectively opposite sides, they meet the sides in three collinear points.

If two projective pencils of curves of orders n and n^' have no common curve, the locus of the intersections of corresponding curves of the two is a curve of order n+n^' ...
