However, that rule holds only when there have been exactly seven leap days in ...
There are exactly twenty-seven straight lines on a smooth cubic surface, [2] which give a basis of the fundamental representation of Lie algebra. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] The unique simple formally real Jordan algebra , the exceptional Jordan algebra of self-adjoint 3 by 3 matrices of quaternions , is 27-dimensional; [ 5 ] its automorphism group is the 52 ...
