Kurt Gödel showed how to find explicit examples of statements in formal systems that are provable in that system but whose shortest pro... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gödel's_speed-up_theorem |
The statement has a short proof in a more powerful system: in fact the proof given in the previous paragraph is a proof in the system of Peano arithmetic plus the statement "Peano arithmetic is consistent" (which, per the incompleteness theorem, cannot be proved in Peano arithmetic).

In mathematics, Hall's conjecture is an open question, as of 2015, on the differences between perfect squares and perfect cubes. It asserts that a perfect square y2 and a perfect cube x3 that are not equal must lie a substantial distance apart. This question arose from consideration of the Mordell equation in the theor... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall's_conjecture |
The original version of Hall's conjecture, formulated by Marshall Hall, Jr. in 1970, says that there is a positive constant C such that for any integers x and y for which y2 ≠ x3, | y 2 − x 3 | > C | x | . {\displaystyle |y^{2}-x^{3}|>C{\sqrt {|x|}}.} | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall's_conjecture |
Hall suggested that perhaps C could be taken as 1/5, which was consistent with all the data known at the time the conjecture was proposed. Danilov showed in 1982 that the exponent 1/2 on the right side (that is, the use of |x|1/2) cannot be replaced by any higher power: for no δ > 0 is there a constant C such that |y2 ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall's_conjecture |
{\displaystyle \deg(g(t)^{2}-f(t)^{3})\geq {\frac {1}{2}}\deg f(t)+1.} The weak form of Hall's conjecture, stated by Stark and Trotter around 1980, replaces the square root on the right side of the inequality by any exponent less than 1/2: for any ε > 0, there is some constant c(ε) depending on ε such that for any inte... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall's_conjecture |
The original, strong, form of the conjecture with exponent 1/2 has never been disproved, although it is no longer believed to be true and the term Hall's conjecture now generally means the version with the ε in it. For example, in 1998, Noam Elkies found the example 4478849284284020423079182 - 58538865167812233 = -1641... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall's_conjecture |

In mathematics, Hanner's inequalities are results in the theory of Lp spaces. Their proof was published in 1956 by Olof Hanner.

Clarkson in 1936. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanner's_inequalities |
In mathematics, Harborth's conjecture states that every planar graph has a planar drawing in which every edge is a straight segment of integer length.

There is no analogue of this theorem f... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hartogs's_theorem_on_separate_holomorphicity |
If we assume that a function f: R n → R {\displaystyle f\colon {\textbf {R}}^{n}\to {\textbf {R}}} is differentiable (or even analytic) in each variable separately, it is not true that f {\displaystyle f} will necessarily be continuous.

More specifically, the Hausdorff dimension is a dimensional number associated ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacity_dimension |
In mathematical terms, the Hausdorff dimension generalizes the notion of the dimension of a real vector space. That is, the Hausdorff dimension of an n-dimensional inner product space equals n.

In mathematics, Hausdorff measure is a generalization of the traditional notions of area and volume to non-integer dimensions, specifically fractals and their Hausdorff dimensions. It is a type of outer measure, named for Felix Hausdorff, that assigns a number in to each set in R n {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{n}} or,... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hausdorff_measure |
Thus, the concept of the Hausdorff measure generalizes the Lebesgue measure and its notions of counting, length, and area. It also generalizes volume. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hausdorff_measure |
In fact, there are d-dimensional Hausdorff measures for any d ≥ 0, which is not necessarily an integer. These measures are fundamental in geometric measure theory. They appear naturally in harmonic analysis or potential theory. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hausdorff_measure |
In mathematics, Heegner's lemma is a lemma used by Kurt Heegner in his paper on the class number problem.

Gödel's incompleteness theorems, published in 1931, showed that Hilbert's program was unattainable for key areas of mathematics. In his first theorem, Gödel showed that any consistent system with a computable set of axioms which is ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilbert_program |
In mathematics, Hilbert's second problem was posed by David Hilbert in 1900 as one of his 23 problems. It asks for a proof that the arithmetic is consistent – free of any internal contradictions. Hilbert stated that the axioms he considered for arithmetic were the ones given in Hilbert (1900), which include a second or... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilbert's_second_problem |
In mathematics, Hilbert's syzygy theorem is one of the three fundamental theorems about polynomial rings over fields, first proved by David Hilbert in 1890, which were introduced for solving important open questions in invariant theory, and are at the basis of modern algebraic geometry. The two other theorems are Hilbe... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilbert's_syzygy_theorem |
As the relations form a module, one may consider the relations between the relations; the theorem asserts that, if one continues in this way, starting with a module over a polynomial ring in n indeterminates over a field, one eventually finds a zero module of relations, after at most n steps. Hilbert's syzygy theorem i... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilbert's_syzygy_theorem |
In mathematics, Hiptmair–Xu (HX) preconditioners are preconditioners for solving H ( curl ) {\displaystyle H(\operatorname {curl} )} and H ( div ) {\displaystyle H(\operatorname {div} )} problems based on the auxiliary space preconditioning framework. An important ingredient in the derivation of HX preconditioners in t... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiptmair–Xu_preconditioner |
HX preconditioners have been used for accelerating a wide variety of solution techniques, thanks to their highly scalable parallel implementations, and are known as AMS and ADS precondition. HX preconditioner was identified by the U.S. Department of Energy as one of the top ten breakthroughs in computational science in... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiptmair–Xu_preconditioner |
In mathematics, Hochschild homology (and cohomology) is a homology theory for associative algebras over rings. There is also a theory for Hochschild homology of certain functors. Hochschild cohomology was introduced by Gerhard Hochschild (1945) for algebras over a field, and extended to algebras over more general rings... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hochschild_cohomology |
In mathematics, Hodge theory, named after W. V. D. Hodge, is a method for studying the cohomology groups of a smooth manifold M using partial differential equations. The key observation is that, given a Riemannian metric on M, every cohomology class has a canonical representative, a differential form that vanishes unde... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_form |
It has major applications in two settings: Riemannian manifolds and Kähler manifolds. Hodge's primary motivation, the study of complex projective varieties, is encompassed by the latter case. Hodge theory has become an important tool in algebraic geometry, particularly through its connection to the study of algebraic c... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_form |
In mathematics, Hodge–Arakelov theory of elliptic curves is an analogue of classical and p-adic Hodge theory for elliptic curves carried out in the framework of Arakelov theory. It was introduced by Mochizuki (1999). It bears the name of two mathematicians, Suren Arakelov and W. V. D. Hodge. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hodge–Arakelov_theory |
The main comparison in his theory remains unpublished as of 2019. Mochizuki's main comparison theorem in Hodge–Arakelov theory states (roughly) that the space of polynomial functions of degree less than d on the universal extension of a smooth elliptic curve in characteristic 0 is naturally isomorphic (via restriction)... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hodge–Arakelov_theory |
In mathematics, Hooley's delta function ( Δ ( n ) {\displaystyle \Delta (n)} ), also called Erdős--Hooley delta-function, defines the maximum number of divisors of n {\displaystyle n} in {\displaystyle } for all u {\displaystyle u} , where e {\displaystyle e} is the Euler's number. The first few terms of this sequence... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hooley's_delta_function |
In mathematics, Hopf conjecture may refer to one of several conjectural statements from differential geometry and topology attributed to Heinz Hopf. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hopf_conjecture |
