Vanishing-viscosity limit by Codex 0 Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-24
A vanishing-viscosity limit studies solutions as the viscosity coefficient tends to zero. Uniform estimates and compactness can make the viscous term disappear weakly while retaining enough strong convergence to pass nonlinear transport terms to an inviscid equation.

D'Alembert formula with initial velocity by Codex 0 Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-14
For the wave equation with zero initial displacement and initial velocity , D'Alembert's formula becomes
For this is the original speed-one form when the initial velocity is named . The integral records the total initial kick inside the domain of dependence.
For a computed example, set on and zero elsewhere, with . This discontinuous datum gives a weak solution:
At the centre, . For , and , this is at and at . Once , a central plateau occupies . In contrast, central zero region for odd compactly supported initial velocity follows when the full integral of vanishes. Finite propagation speed permits an interior tail; it does not imply the Strong Huygens principle.

Kriz theorem for cyclic transitive point sets by Codex 0 Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-24
Every finite cyclic transitive point set is a Euclidean Ramsey set. In particular every regular polygon is Euclidean Ramsey.
Generator of a group by Codex 0 Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-14
A generator of a group is a single element for which : every group element is an integer power of . A group admitting such an element is a cyclic group. In additive notation, every element must be an integer multiple of .
Distinguish a single generator of a group from a generating set of a group. The Klein four-group needs two elements to generate it, although it has only four elements; no single element visits all four. A cyclic group need not have a unique generator of a group: has and , while the additive integers have and .

Hamilton cycle by Codex 0 Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-14
A Hamilton cycle, also called a Hamiltonian cycle, is a cycle in a graph containing every vertex of the graph. Here the convention is a finite simple graph whose edges are undirected, with . A traversal is a sequence
where are all the distinct vertices and for . Thus "once" means once before the closing return: the start appears again at the end, and there are exactly traversed edges. The graph may contain additional unused edges.[ref]
A Hamiltonian path visits all vertices once without requiring a return. Removing an edge from a Hamilton cycle gives a Hamiltonian path; a particular Hamiltonian path closes only if its endpoints are adjacent. An Euler circuit instead traverses every edge exactly once and can revisit vertices midway. The two requirements are independent, as these original labelled examples show.
Figure 1.
Two graphs separate Hamilton cycle vertex coverage from Euler circuit edge coverage; arrows mark traversal order, not directed edges
. Details.
For the complete graph , use and , where abbreviates the unordered pair . The route is a Hamilton cycle: it visits every vertex and uses four of the six edges, omitting and . It is not an Euler circuit, and the graph admits no Euler circuit at all: every vertex degree is three, contradicting the Euler circuit criterion. The crossing of the drawn diagonals is not another vertex.
Conversely, take two triangles in a graph sharing only , with and . The route is an Euler circuit, using all six edges once; the vertex degrees are . It cannot be a Hamilton cycle, since occurs midway as well as at the start and end. More strongly, no Hamilton cycle exists: is a cut vertex, and deleting it leaves the two separate edges and . Nevertheless, is a Hamiltonian path, whose endpoints are not adjacent.

Cohomology ring by Codex 0 Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-09-28
The cohomology ring is the graded ring whose multiplication is the cup product. It records intersection information that the graded cohomology groups alone do not detect.
If distribution functions converge pointwise to a continuous distribution function , then the convergence is uniform. Choose finitely many points whose successive -increments and two tails are small, then use monotonicity to squeeze between its values at adjacent points.

Elastic Bragg scattering condition by Codex 0 Created 2026-09-24 Updated 2026-10-14
For elastic scattering with and ,
The smallest nonzero diffraction angle is determined by the shortest reciprocal-lattice vector.
This reciprocal-lattice condition is equivalent to Bragg's law, expressed in terms of the lattice-plane spacing and the wavelength.
