Yoshiharu Kohayakawa is a prominent Japanese mathematician known for his contributions to various areas of mathematics, particularly in combinatorics and graph theory. He has made significant advancements in understanding extremal problems and probabilistic methods in these fields. Kohayakawa is also recognized for his work on random graphs and their properties.
Zdeněk Dvořák could refer to a number of individuals, as it is a relatively common name. However, one of the more notable Zdeněk Dvořáks is a Czech archaeologist known for his work in the field of archaeology and research related to ancient cultures, particularly in Central Europe.
The multivariate gamma function is a generalization of the gamma function to multiple dimensions. It is used in various fields such as multivariate statistics, probability theory, and in the theory of random matrices. The multivariate gamma function can be used to describe distributions of multivariate random variables and often appears in the context of the Wishart distribution and other multivariate statistical models.
The Möbius–Kantor configuration is a geometric configuration that consists of a collection of points and lines that exhibit a certain symmetrical and combinatorial structure. Specifically, it is defined as a configuration of 10 points and 10 lines such that each line intersects exactly three of the points, and every point lies on exactly three of the lines. The configuration is named after August Ferdinand Möbius and Georg Cantor.
An exponential function is a mathematical function of the form \( f(x) = a \cdot b^x \), where: - \( a \) is a constant (the initial value), - \( b \) is the base of the exponential function (a positive real number), - \( x \) is the exponent (which can be any real number).
An exponential function is a mathematical function of the form: \[ f(x) = a \cdot b^{x} \] where: - \( f(x) \) is the value of the function at \( x \), - \( a \) is a constant that represents the initial value or coefficient, - \( b \) is the base of the exponential function, a positive real number, - \( x \) is the exponent, which can be any real number.
Ptolemy's table of chords is an ancient mathematical construct from Ptolemy's work in the realm of astronomy and trigonometry. In his work "Almagest" (or "Mathematics of the Stars"), Ptolemy compiled a table that lists the lengths of chords in a circle corresponding to various angles. This table served as an early form of trigonometric values before the formal development of trigonometry.
An elliptic integral is a type of integral that arises in the calculation of the arc length of an ellipse, as well as in various problems of physics and engineering. Elliptic integrals are generally not expressible in terms of elementary functions, which means that their solutions cannot be represented using basic algebraic operations and standard functions (like polynomials, exponentials, trigonometric functions, etc.).
The \( J \)-invariant is an important quantity in the theory of elliptic curves and complex tori. In the context of elliptic curves defined over the field of complex numbers, the \( J \)-invariant is a single complex number that classifies elliptic curves up to isomorphism. Two elliptic curves are isomorphic if and only if their \( J \)-invariants are equal.
Chopsticks is a hand game typically played by two or more players. It's a game that involves using fingers to represent numbers, and it can be played with both strategy and skill. The objective is to eliminate all of your opponents' "fingers" (or hands) by touching them and using simple rules of movement and counting. ### Basic Rules: 1. **Starting Position**: Each player starts with one finger extended on each hand (usually two hands).
A **modular lambda function** typically refers to the use of lambda functions within a modular programming context, often in functional programming languages or languages that support functional paradigms, like Python, JavaScript, and Haskell. However, the term isn't standardized and can mean a few things depending on the context. Here are some ways to interpret or use modular lambda functions: 1. **Lambda Functions**: A lambda function is a small anonymous function defined using the `lambda` keyword.
Cereceda's conjecture is a conjecture in the field of graph theory that pertains to the properties of certain classes of graphs. The conjecture states that for every finite graph \( G \) with at least one edge, the set of all the vertices of \( G \) can be partitioned into a set of vertices of even degree and a set of vertices of odd degree, such that. This partitioning is not trivial and has interesting implications for the structure of the graph.
The Grundy number, also known as the nimber, is a concept from combinatorial game theory used to analyze games, particularly impartial games. It is a measure of a position's winning potential in these games. In an impartial game, the players have the same options available to them regardless of who is about to move. A position in such a game can have a Grundy number that helps determine whether it is a winning position (for the player about to move) or a losing position.
Tricolorability is a concept from graph theory, specifically related to the coloring of graphs. A graph is said to be tricolorably if its vertices can be colored using three colors in such a way that no two adjacent vertices share the same color. This is a specific case of the more general problem of vertex coloring in graphs.
A *factor-critical graph* is a type of graph in which the removal of any single vertex results in a graph that has a perfect matching. In other words, a graph \( G \) is called factor-critical if for every vertex \( v \) in \( G \), the graph \( G - v \) (the graph obtained by removing vertex \( v \) and its incident edges) has a perfect matching.

Pinned article: Introduction to the OurBigBook Project

Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
We have two killer features:
  1. topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculus
    Articles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
    • a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
    • a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
    This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.

  2. local editing: you can store all your personal knowledge base content locally in a plaintext markup format that can be edited locally and published either:
    This way you can be sure that even if OurBigBook.com were to go down one day (which we have no plans to do as it is quite cheap to host!), your content will still be perfectly readable as a static site.

    You can publish local OurBigBook lightweight markup files to either https://OurBigBook.com or as a static website
