Here there are n = 10 pigeons in m = 9 holes. Since 10 is greater than 9, the pigeonhole principle says that at least one hole has more than one pigeon. (The top left hole has 2 pigeons.) In mathematics, the pigeonhole principle states that if n items are put into m containers, with n > m, then at least one container must contain more than one ...
A face with a point hole is considered a monogonal hole, adding one vertex, and one edge, and can attached to a degenerate monogonal hosohedron hole, like a cylinder hole with zero radius. A face with a degenerate digon hole adds 2 vertices and 2 coinciding edges, where the two edges attach to two coplanar faces, as a dihedron hole.
Hole types in engineering: blind (left), through (middle), interrupted (right). In engineering, machining, and tooling, a hole may be a blind hole or a through hole (also called a thru-hole or clearance hole). A blind hole is a hole that is reamed, drilled, or milled to a specified depth without breaking through to the other side of the ...
A polygon with holes is an area-connected or multiply-connected planar polygon with one external boundary and one or more interior boundaries (holes). A complex polygon is a configuration analogous to an ordinary polygon, which exists in the complex plane of two real and two imaginary dimensions.
In layman's terms, the genus is the number of "holes" an object has ("holes" interpreted in the sense of doughnut holes; a hollow sphere would be considered as having zero holes in this sense). [3] A torus has 1 such hole, while a sphere has 0. The green surface pictured above has 2 holes of the relevant sort. For instance:
Reprint of 1935 edition. A problem on page 101 describes the shape formed by a sphere with a cylinder removed as a "napkin ring" and asks for a proof that the volume is the same as that of a sphere with diameter equal to the length of the hole.

The most efficient way to pack different-sized circles together is not obvious. In geometry, circle packing is the study of the arrangement of circles (of equal or varying sizes) on a given surface such that no overlapping occurs and so that no circle can be enlarged without creating an overlap.
A mathematical symbol is a figure or a combination of figures that is used to represent a mathematical object, an action on mathematical objects, a relation between mathematical objects, or for structuring the other symbols that occur in a formula.
