In mathematics, the Golod–Shafarevich theorem was proved in 1964 by Evgeny Golod and Igor Shafarevich. It is a result in non-commutative homological algebra which solves the class field tower problem, by showing that class field towers can be infinite.

In mathematics, the Golomb sequence, named after Solomon W. Golomb (but also called Silverman's sequence), is a monotonically increasing integer sequence where an is the number of times that n occurs in the sequence, starting with a1 = 1, and with the property that for n > 1 each an is the smallest unique integer which...

In mathematics, the Golomb–Dickman constant arises in the theory of random permutations and in number theory. Its value is λ = 0.62432998854355087099293638310083724 … {\displaystyle \lambda =0.62432998854355087099293638310083724\dots } (sequence A084945 in the OEIS)It is not known whether this constant is rational or i...

In mathematics, the Gompertz constant or Euler–Gompertz constant, denoted by δ {\displaystyle \delta } , appears in integral evaluations and as a value of special functions. It is named after Benjamin Gompertz. It can be defined by the continued fraction δ = 1 2 − 1 4 − 4 6 − 9 8 − ⋱ − n 2 2 n + 2 − … , {\displaystyle ...

The most frequent appearance of δ {\displaystyle \delta } is in the following integrals: δ = ∫ 0 ∞ ln ⁡ ( 1 + x ) e − x d x = ∫ 0 ∞ e − x 1 + x d x = ∫ 0 1 1 1 − ln ⁡ ( x ) d x . {\displaystyle \delta =\int _{0}^{\infty }\ln(1+x)e^{-x}dx=\int _{0}^{\infty }{\frac {e^{-x}}{1+x}}dx=\int _{0}^{1}{\frac {1}{1-\ln(x)}}dx.} ...

In mathematics, the Goncharov conjecture is a conjecture introduced by Goncharov (1995) suggesting that the cohomology of certain motivic complexes coincides with pieces of K-groups. It extends a conjecture due to Zagier (1991).

In mathematics, the Goormaghtigh conjecture is a conjecture in number theory named for the Belgian mathematician René Goormaghtigh. The conjecture is that the only non-trivial integer solutions of the exponential Diophantine equation x m − 1 x − 1 = y n − 1 y − 1 {\displaystyle {\frac {x^{m}-1}{x-1}}={\frac {y^{n}-1}{y...

In mathematics, the Gordon–Luecke theorem on knot complements states that if the complements of two tame knots are homeomorphic, then the knots are equivalent. In particular, any homeomorphism between knot complements must take a meridian to a meridian. The theorem is usually stated as "knots are determined by their co...

Often two knots are considered equivalent if they are isotopic. The correct version in this case is that if two knots have complements which are orientation-preserving homeomorphic, then they are isotopic. These results follow from the following (also called the Gordon–Luecke theorem): no nontrivial Dehn surgery on a n...

c_16wrxgsszw95
The theorem was proved by Cameron Gordon and John Luecke. Essential ingredients of the proof are their joint work with Marc Culler and Peter Shalen on the cyclic surgery theorem, combinatorial techniques in the style of Litherland, thin position, and Scharlemann cycles. For link complements, it is not in fact true that...

For example, JHC Whitehead proved that there are infinitely many links whose complements are all homeomorphic to the Whitehead link. His construction is to twist along a disc spanning an unknotted component (as is the case for either component of the Whitehead link). Another method is to twist along an annulus spanning...

In mathematics, the Gorenstein–Walter theorem, proved by Gorenstein and Walter (1965a, 1965b, 1965c), states that if a finite group G has a dihedral Sylow 2-subgroup, and O(G) is the maximal normal subgroup of odd order, then G/O(G) is isomorphic to a 2-group, or the alternating group A7, or a subgroup of PΓL2(q) conta...
