    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tombstone_(typography)

    It is inspired by the typographic practice of end marks, an element that marks the end of an article. [1] [2] In Unicode, it is represented as character U+220E ∎ END OF PROOF. Its graphic form varies, as it may be a hollow or filled rectangle or square. In AMS-LaTeX, the symbol is automatically appended at the end of a proof environment ...

    In the mathematical theory of artificial neural networks, universal approximation theorems are theorems [1] [2] of the following form: Given a family of neural networks, for each function from a certain function space, there exists a sequence of neural networks ,, … from the family, such that according to some criterion.

  7. 15 and 290 theorems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/15_and_290_theorems

    In mathematics, the 15 theorem or Conway–Schneeberger Fifteen Theorem, proved by John H. Conway and W. A. Schneeberger in 1993, states that if a positive definite quadratic form with integer matrix represents all positive integers up to 15, then it represents all positive integers. [1] The proof was complicated, and was never published.

  8. Proof by infinite descent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_by_infinite_descent

    In mathematics, a proof by infinite descent, also known as Fermat's method of descent, is a particular kind of proof by contradiction [1] used to show that a statement cannot possibly hold for any number, by showing that if the statement were to hold for a number, then the same would be true for a smaller number, leading to an infinite descent and ultimately a contradiction. [2]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handshaking_lemma

    An undirected graph consists of a system of vertices, and edges connecting unordered pairs of vertices. In any graph, the degree ⁡ of a vertex is defined as the number of edges that have as an endpoint.
