A median triangle is a triangle whose sides are equal and parallel to the medians of a given triangle. The median triangle of the median triangle is similar to the given ...

Given a Farey sequence with consecutive terms h/k and h^'/k^', then the mediant is defined as the reduced form of the fraction (h+h^')/(k+k^').

The plane through the midpoint of a line segment and perpendicular to that segment, also called a mediating plane. The term "mediator" was introduced by J. Neuberg ...

In a lattice, any two elements a and b have a greatest lower bound. This greatest lower bound is often called the meet of a and b, and is denoted by a ^ b. One can also speak ...

A Meeussen sequence is an increasing sequence of positive integers (m_1, m_2, ...) such that m_1=1, every nonnegative integer is the sum of a subset of the {m_i}, and each ...

P_n(cosalpha)=(sqrt(2))/piint_0^alpha(cos[(n+1/2)phi])/(sqrt(cosphi-cosalpha))dphi, where P_n(x) is a Legendre polynomial.

The integral transform (Kf)(x)=int_0^inftysqrt(xt)K_nu(xt)f(t)dt, where K_nu(x) is a modified Bessel function of the second kind. Note the lower limit of 0, not -infty as ...

The hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials defined by P_n^((lambda))(x;phi)=((2lambda)_n)/(n!)e^(inphi)_2F_1(-n,lambda+ix;2lambda;1-e^(-2iphi)), (1) where (x)_n is the ...

The polynomials M_k(x;delta,eta) which form the Sheffer sequence for g(t) = {[1+deltaf(t)]^2+[f(t)]^2}^(eta/2) (1) f(t) = tan(t/(1+deltat)) (2) which have generating function ...

(e^(ypsi_0(x))Gamma(x))/(Gamma(x+y))=product_(n=0)^infty(1+y/(n+x))e^(-y/(n+x)), where psi_0(x) is the digamma function and Gamma(x) is the gamma function.
