  2. Euler characteristic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_characteristic

    This equation, stated by Euler in 1758, [2] is known as Euler's polyhedron formula. [3] It corresponds to the Euler characteristic of the sphere (i.e. χ = 2 {\displaystyle \ \chi =2\ } ), and applies identically to spherical polyhedra .

  3. Riemann–Hurwitz formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riemann–Hurwitz_formula

    In mathematics, the Riemann–Hurwitz formula, named after Bernhard Riemann and Adolf Hurwitz, describes the relationship of the Euler characteristics of two surfaces when one is a ramified covering of the other. It therefore connects ramification with algebraic topology, in this case.

  4. Local Euler characteristic formula - Wikipedia

    In the mathematical field of Galois cohomology, the local Euler characteristic formula is a result due to John Tate that computes the Euler characteristic of the group cohomology of the absolute Galois group G K of a non-archimedean local field K.

    Euler product formula for the Riemann zeta function. Euler–Maclaurin formula (Euler's summation formula) relating integrals to sums; Euler–Rodrigues formula describing the rotation of a vector in three dimensions; Euler's reflection formula, reflection formula for the gamma function; Local Euler characteristic formula

  7. Euler's Gem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_Gem

    Euler's Gem: The Polyhedron Formula and the Birth of Topology is a book on the formula + = for the Euler characteristic of convex polyhedra and its connections to the history of topology. It was written by David Richeson and published in 2008 by the Princeton University Press , with a paperback edition in 2012.

    (The appearance of in the summation is the usual Euler characteristic.) [1] [2] If the action is free, the sum has only a single term, and so this expression reduces to the topological Euler characteristic of divided by | |. [2]

  9. Euler's formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_formula

    Euler's formula, named after Leonhard Euler, is a mathematical formula in complex analysis that establishes the fundamental relationship between the trigonometric functions and the complex exponential function. Euler's formula states that, for any real number x, one has = ⁡ + ⁡, where e is the base of the natural logarithm, i is the ...
