  2. Cavalieri's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavalieri's_principle

    By the Pythagorean theorem, the plane located units above the "equator" intersects the sphere in a circle of radius and area (). The area of the plane's intersection with the part of the cylinder that is outside of the cone is also π ( r 2 − y 2 ) {\displaystyle \pi \left(r^{2}-y^{2}\right)} .

  3. Hipparchus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hipparchus

    Hipparchus could have constructed his chord table using the Pythagorean theorem and a theorem known to Archimedes. He also might have used the relationship between sides and diagonals of a cyclic quadrilateral , today called Ptolemy's theorem because its earliest extant source is a proof in the Almagest (I.10).

  4. Law of the iterated logarithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_the_iterated_logarithm

    The law of iterated logarithms operates "in between" the law of large numbers and the central limit theorem.There are two versions of the law of large numbers — the weak and the strong — and they both state that the sums S n, scaled by n −1, converge to zero, respectively in probability and almost surely:

  5. E8 (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E8_(mathematics)

    The split form, EVIII (or E 8(8)), which has maximal compact subgroup Spin(16)/(Z/2Z), fundamental group of order 2 (implying that it has a double cover, which is a simply connected Lie real group but is not algebraic, see below) and has trivial outer automorphism group.

  6. Bony–Brezis theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bony–Brezis_theorem

    In mathematics, the Bony–Brezis theorem, due to the French mathematicians Jean-Michel Bony and Haïm Brezis, gives necessary and sufficient conditions for a closed subset of a manifold to be invariant under the flow defined by a vector field, namely at each point of the closed set the vector field must have non-positive inner product with any exterior normal vector to the set.

  7. Picard theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picard_theorem

    By Landau's theorem and the observation about the range of H in the proof of the Little Picard Theorem, there is a constant C > 0 such that |H′(w)| ≤ C / Re(w). Thus, for all real numbers x ≥ 2 and 0 ≤ y ≤ 2π,
