According to Pythagorean numerology, the names “W. D. Gann” and “Louise McWhirter” share the same numerological root of “9”. [ 21 ] [ 22 ] [ 23 ] It is possibly not a coincidence, since some people believe that Gann was an numerologist.
Numerology (known before the 20th century as arithmancy) is the belief in an occult, divine or mystical relationship between a number and one or more coinciding events. It is also the study of the numerical value, via an alphanumeric system, of the letters in words and names.
Wade and Wade [17] first introduced the categorization of Pythagorean triples by their height, defined as c − b, linking 3,4,5 to 5,12,13 and 7,24,25 and so on. McCullough and Wade [ 18 ] extended this approach, which produces all Pythagorean triples when k > h √ 2 / d : Write a positive integer h as pq 2 with p square-free and q positive.
In numerology, gematria (/ ɡ ə ˈ m eɪ t r i ə /; Hebrew: גמטריא or גימטריה, gimatria, plural גמטראות or גימטריות, gimatriot) [1] is the practice of assigning a numerical value to a name, word or phrase by reading it as a number, or sometimes by using an alphanumerical cipher.
To find the primitive Pythagorean triple associated with any such value t, compute (1 − t 2, 2t, 1 + t 2) and multiply all three values by the least common multiple of their denominators. (Alternatively, write t = n / m as a fraction in lowest terms and use the formulas from the previous section.)
A Pythagorean prime is a prime that is the sum of two squares; Fermat's theorem on sums of two squares states which primes are Pythagorean primes. Pythagorean triangles with integer altitude from the hypotenuse have the sum of squares of inverses of the integer legs equal to the square of the inverse of the integer altitude from the hypotenuse.
Every positive integer occurs as the Pythagoras number of some formally real field. [2]The Pythagoras number is related to the Stufe by p(F) ≤ s(F) + 1. [3] If F is not formally real then s(F) ≤ p(F) ≤ s(F) + 1, [4] and both cases are possible: for F = C we have s = p = 1, whereas for F = F 5 we have s = 1, p = 2.
In numerology, isopsephy (/ ˈ aɪ s ə p ˌ s ɛ f i /; from Greek ἴσος (ísos) 'equal' and ψῆφος (psêphos) 'count', lit. ' pebble ') or isopsephism is the practice of adding up the number values of the letters in a word to form a single number. [1]
