A number of attractive 8-compounds of the regular tetrahedron can be constructed. The compounds illustrated above will be implemented in a future version of the Wolfram ...

Let M be a regular surface with v_(p),w_(p) points in the tangent space M_(p) of M. Then the third fundamental form is given by III(v_(p),w_(p))=S(v_(p))·S(w_(p)), where S is ...

The closure of a set A is the smallest closed set containing A. Closed sets are closed under arbitrary intersection, so it is also the intersection of all closed sets ...

A function f is topologically transitive if, given any two intervals U and V, there is some positive integer k such that f^k(U) intersection V!=emptyset. Vaguely, this means ...

Transparallel processing refers to this search for regularities in O(2^N) strings as if only one string of length N were concerned (as is possible if the strings form a ...

The cubic curve defined by ax^3+bx^2+cx+d=xy with a!=0. The curve cuts the axis in either one or three points. It was the 66th curve in Newton's classification of cubics. ...

Values of the trigonometric functions can be expressed exactly for integer multiples of pi/20. For cosx, cos(pi/(20)) = 1/4sqrt(8+2sqrt(10+2sqrt(5))) (1) cos((3pi)/(20)) = ...

The function psi(x)={x(1-(x^2)/(c^2))^2 for |x|<c; 0 for |x|>c (1) sometimes used in robust estimation. It has a minimum at x=-c/sqrt(5) and a maximum at x=c/sqrt(5), where ...

Except for triangles, every simple polygon has at least two nonoverlapping ears.

An error in a statistical test which occurs when a true hypothesis is rejected (a false negative in terms of the null hypothesis).
