  2. Euclidean tilings by convex regular polygons - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_tilings_by...

    This notation represents (i) the number of vertices, (ii) the number of polygons around each vertex (arranged clockwise) and (iii) the number of sides to each of those polygons. For example: 3 6; 3 6; 3 4.6, tells us there are 3 vertices with 2 different vertex types, so this tiling would be classed as a ‘3-uniform (2-vertex types)’ tiling.

  3. List of unsolved problems in mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unsolved_problems...

    Many mathematical problems have been stated but not yet solved. These problems come from many areas of mathematics, such as theoretical physics, computer science, algebra, analysis, combinatorics, algebraic, differential, discrete and Euclidean geometries, graph theory, group theory, model theory, number theory, set theory, Ramsey theory, dynamical systems, and partial differential equations.

  4. Factorial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorial

    [39] [40] The factorial number system is a mixed radix notation for numbers in which the place values of each digit are factorials. [41] Factorials are used extensively in probability theory, for instance in the Poisson distribution [42] and in the probabilities of random permutations. [43]

  5. Transcendental number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcendental_number

    In other words, the n th digit of this number is 1 only if n is one of 1! = 1, 2! = 2, 3! = 6, 4! = 24, etc. Liouville showed that this number belongs to a class of transcendental numbers that can be more closely approximated by rational numbers than can any irrational algebraic number, and this class of numbers is called the Liouville numbers ...

  6. Floor and ceiling functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floor_and_ceiling_functions

    In mathematics, the floor function is the function that takes as input a real number x, and gives as output the greatest integer less than or equal to x, denoted ⌊x⌋ or floor(x). Similarly, the ceiling function maps x to the least integer greater than or equal to x, denoted ⌈x⌉ or ceil(x). [1]

  7. Cumulant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cumulant

    The combinatorial meaning of the expression of mixed moments in terms of cumulants is easier to understand than that of cumulants in terms of mixed moments, see Equation (3.2.6) in: [11] ⁡ = (:).

  8. Twelvefold way - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twelvefold_way

    Rather, as explained under combinations, the number of n-multicombinations from a set with x elements can be seen to be the same as the number of n-combinations from a set with x + n − 1 elements. This reduces the problem to another one in the twelvefold way, and gives as result

  9. Snub square tiling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snub_square_tiling

    The snub square tiling can be constructed as a snub operation from the square tiling, or as an alternate truncation from the truncated square tiling.. An alternate truncation deletes every other vertex, creating a new triangular faces at the removed vertices, and reduces the original faces to half as many sides.
