  2. Riemann surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riemann_surface

    There are several equivalent definitions of a Riemann surface. A Riemann surface X is a connected complex manifold of complex dimension one. This means that X is a connected Hausdorff space that is endowed with an atlas of charts to the open unit disk of the complex plane: for every point x ∈ X there is a neighbourhood of x that is homeomorphic to the open unit disk of the complex plane, and ...

  3. Chi distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chi_distribution

    It is the distribution of the positive square root of a sum of squared independent Gaussian random variables. Equivalently, it is the distribution of the Euclidean distance between a multivariate Gaussian random variable and the origin. The chi distribution describes the positive square roots of a variable obeying a chi-squared distribution.

  4. Chebyshev nodes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chebyshev_nodes

    Chebyshev nodes of both kinds from = to =.. For a given positive integer the Chebyshev nodes of the first kind in the open interval (,) are = ⁡ (+), =, …,. These are the roots of the Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind with degree .

  5. Napier's bones - Wikipedia

    In the example above, 6839925 is less than 11669900, so the root needs to be rounded up to 6840.0. To find the square root of a number that isn't an integer, say 54782.917, everything is the same, except that the digits to the left and right of the decimal point are grouped into twos. So 54782.917 would be grouped as 05 47 82.91 70

  6. Nested radical - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nested_radical

    In the case of two nested square roots, the following theorem completely solves the problem of denesting. [2]If a and c are rational numbers and c is not the square of a rational number, there are two rational numbers x and y such that + = if and only if is the square of a rational number d.

  7. Cube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cube

    The cube can be represented as the cell, and examples of a honeycomb are cubic honeycomb, order-5 cubic honeycomb, order-6 cubic honeycomb, and order-7 cubic honeycomb. [47] The cube can be constructed with six square pyramids, tiling space by attaching their apices. [48] Polycube is a polyhedron in which the faces of many cubes are attached.

  8. Square root of 3 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_root_of_3

    The space diagonal of the unit cube is √ 3. Distances between vertices of a double unit cube are square roots of the first six natural numbers, including the square root of 3 (√7 is not possible due to Legendre's three-square theorem) This projection of the Bilinski dodecahedron is a rhombus with diagonal ratio √ 3.

  9. Imaginary unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imaginary_unit

    Square roots of negative numbers are called imaginary because in early-modern mathematics, only what are now called real numbers, obtainable by physical measurements or basic arithmetic, were considered to be numbers at all – even negative numbers were treated with skepticism – so the square root of a negative number was previously considered undefined or nonsensical.
