  2. Sigma-pi and equivalent-orbital models - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigma-pi_and_equivalent...

    The σ-π model differentiates bonds and lone pairs of σ symmetry from those of π symmetry, while the equivalent-orbital model hybridizes them. The σ-π treatment takes into account molecular symmetry and is better suited to interpretation of aromatic molecules ( Hückel's rule ), although computational calculations of certain molecules tend ...

  3. List of formulae involving π - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_formulae_involving_π

    More formulas of this nature can be given, as explained by Ramanujan's theory of elliptic functions to alternative bases. Perhaps the most notable hypergeometric inversions are the following two examples, involving the Ramanujan tau function τ {\displaystyle \tau } and the Fourier coefficients j {\displaystyle \mathrm {j} } of the J-invariant ...

  4. Pi bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi_bond

    Two pi bonds are the maximum that can exist between a given pair of atoms. Quadruple bonds are extremely rare and can be formed only between transition metal atoms, and consist of one sigma bond, two pi bonds and one delta bond. A pi bond is weaker than a sigma bond, but the combination of pi and sigma bond is stronger than either bond by itself.

  5. Electronic properties of graphene - Wikipedia

    The graphene sheet thus displays a semimetallic (or zero-gap semiconductor) character. Two of the six Dirac points are independent, while the rest are equivalent by symmetry. In the vicinity of the K-points the energy depends linearly on the wave vector, similar to a relativistic particle.

  6. Machin-like formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machin-like_formula

    Machin-like formulas for π can be constructed by finding a set of integers , =, where all the prime factorisations of ⁠ + ⁠, taken together, use a number of distinct primes , and then using either linear algebra or the LLL basis-reduction algorithm to construct linear combinations of arctangents of . For example, in the Størmer formula ...

  7. Symmetry operation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetry_operation

    In mathematics, a symmetry operation is a geometric transformation of an object that leaves the object looking the same after it has been carried out. For example, a 1 ⁄ 3 turn rotation of a regular triangle about its center, a reflection of a square across its diagonal, a translation of the Euclidean plane, or a point reflection of a sphere through its center are all symmetry operations.

  8. Euler's identity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_identity

    Paul Nahin, a professor emeritus at the University of New Hampshire who wrote a book dedicated to Euler's formula and its applications in Fourier analysis, said Euler's identity is "of exquisite beauty". [8] Mathematics writer Constance Reid has said that Euler's identity is "the most famous formula in all mathematics". [9]

  9. Symmetry number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetry_number

    The symmetry number or symmetry order of an object is the number of different but indistinguishable (or equivalent) arrangements (or views) of the object, that is, it is the order of its symmetry group. The object can be a molecule, crystal lattice, lattice, tiling, or in general any kind of mathematical object that admits symmetries.
