The Poussin graph is the 15-node planar graph illustrated above that tangles the Kempe chains in Kempe's algorithm and thus provides an example of how Kempe's supposed proof ...

A power is an exponent to which a given quantity is raised. The expression x^a is therefore known as "x to the ath power." A number of powers of x are plotted above (cf. ...

An algebra in which the associator (x,x,x)=0. The subalgebra generated by one element is associative.

Consider the sequence {x_n}_(n=0)^infty defined by x_0=1 and x_(n+1)=[3/2x_n], where [z] is the ceiling function. For n=0, 1, ..., the first few terms are 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 12, ...

The power circles of a reference triangle are the three circles centered at the midpoints M_A, M_B, M_C of the sides of a reference triangle DeltaABC that pass through the ...

The curve with trilinear coordinates a^t:b^t:c^t for a given power t.

Define a power difference prime as a number of the form n^n-(n-1)^(n-1) that is prime. The first few power difference primes then have n=2, 3, 4, 7, 11, 17, 106, 120, 1907, ...

Consider solutions to the equation x^y=y^x. (1) Real solutions are given by x=y for x,y>0, together with the solution of (lny)/y=(lnx)/x, (2) which is given by ...

A power floor prime sequence is a sequence of prime numbers {|_theta^n_|}_n, where |_x_| is the floor function and theta>1 is real number. It is unknown if, though extremely ...

The sequence {|_(3/2)^n_|} is given by 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 17, 25, 38, ... (OEIS A002379). The first few composite |_(3/2)^n_| occur for n=8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, ...
