Planar curves have zero torsion Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-14
All derivatives of a planar curve lie in one fixed two-dimensional vector plane, so and its torsion vanishes wherever defined.
Total curvature Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-24
The total curvature of a regular curve is
It equals the length traced by the unit tangent on the unit sphere, so lifting a planar circle into a helix can reduce total curvature even when both curves make one revolution around the same axis.
Curvature of a space curve Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-03
For a unit-speed curve , the unit tangent is and the curvature is . It measures the rate at which the tangent direction turns.
Hereditarily finite set Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-24
The class of hereditarily finite sets is the set
Equivalently, these are the sets with finite transitive closure, or the sets contained in a finite transitive set.
Transitive closure Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-14
The transitive closure is the least transitive set containing every member of . It is obtained by taking the union of all finite iterates of the union operation starting from . This set-theoretic construction uses the membership binary relation; transitive closure of a relation instead closes an arbitrary binary relation under composition.
For , the reductions are
and
Both quadratic factors are irreducible, so
and
Integral basis of the cubic field of discriminant minus 307 Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-24
The elements
form an integral basis. Relative to this basis, multiplication by has integer matrix
The basis discriminant is one quarter of the discriminant of , hence is the square-free integer .
Crossing lemma Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-24
If a simple graph has vertices and edges, every plane drawing has at least
crossings. Apply the linear planar bound to the random induced subgraph obtained by retaining vertices independently with probability .
Number operator Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-06
The number operator satisfies
It is self-adjoint and positive semidefinite.
Stratified Cox model Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-28
A stratified Cox model gives each stratum its own baseline hazard while sharing regression coefficients.
Cox partial likelihood Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-06
The Cox partial likelihood conditions each event on its risk set, eliminating the baseline hazard.
Covering space action Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-03
An action of on is a covering space action when every point has a neighbourhood disjoint from for every nonidentity . The quotient map is then locally a covering map, although without stronger properness assumptions its quotient need not be Hausdorff.
Lifting criterion for a covering space Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-24
For a covering and a based map from a path-connected locally path-connected space, a based lift exists exactly when
Path lifting theorem Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-03
A path in the base of a covering has a unique lift after its initial point in the fibre is chosen. Subdivide its compact parameter interval so that each segment lies in an evenly covered set, then use the inverse sheet maps successively.
