The figure-eight knot and the (−2,3,7) pretzel knot are the only two hyperbolic knots known to have more than 6 exceptional surgeries, Dehn surgeries resulting in a non-hyperbolic 3-manifold; they have 10 and 7, respectively.
The interlaced version of the simplest form of the Endless knot symbol of Buddhism is topologically equivalent to the 7 4 knot (though it appears to have nine crossings), as is the interlaced version of the unicursal hexagram of occultism. [1]
2. Denotes the additive inverse and is read as minus, the negative of, or the opposite of; for example, –2. 3. Also used in place of \ for denoting the set-theoretic complement; see \ in § Set theory. × (multiplication sign) 1. In elementary arithmetic, denotes multiplication, and is read as times; for example, 3 × 2. 2.
The figure shows that 8 can be decomposed into 5 (the number of ways to climb 4 steps, followed by a single-step) plus 3 (the number of ways to climb 3 steps, followed by a double-step). The same reasoning is applied recursively until a single step, of which there is only one way to climb.
In mathematics, the Farey sequence of order n is the sequence of completely reduced fractions, either between 0 and 1, or without this restriction, [a] which when in lowest terms have denominators less than or equal to n, arranged in order of increasing size.
0, 1, 3, 6, 2, 7, 13, 20, 12, 21, 11, 22, 10, 23, 9, 24, 8, 25, 43, 62, ... "subtract if possible, otherwise add" : a (0) = 0; for n > 0, a ( n ) = a ( n − 1) − n if that number is positive and not already in the sequence, otherwise a ( n ) = a ( n − 1) + n , whether or not that number is already in the sequence.

Die A has sides 2, 2, 4, 4, 9, 9. Die B has sides 1, 1, 6, 6, 8, 8. Die C has sides 3, 3, 5, 5, 7, 7. The probability that A rolls a higher number than B, the probability that B rolls higher than C, and the probability that C rolls higher than A are all 5 / 9 , so this set of dice is intransitive. In fact, it has the even stronger ...
