It is constructed by gluing each face of a dodecahedron to its opposite in a way that produces a closed 3-manifold. There are three ways to do this gluing consistently. Opposite faces are misaligned by 1/10 of a turn, so to match them they must be rotated by 1/10, 3/10 or 5/10 turn; a rotation of 3/10 gives the Seifert... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3-manifold |
Rotation of 1/10 gives the Poincaré homology sphere, and rotation by 5/10 gives 3-dimensional real projective space. With the 3/10-turn gluing pattern, the edges of the original dodecahedron are glued to each other in groups of five. Thus, in the Seifert–Weber space, each edge is surrounded by five pentagonal faces, an... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3-manifold |

The Gauss–Lucas theorem says that all of the critical points lie within the convex hull of the roots. It follows that the critical points must be within the unit disk, since the roots are.

It is named for Edwin Spanier and J. H. C. Whitehead, who developed it in papers from 1955. The basic point is that sphere complements determine the homology, but not the homotopy type, in general. What is determined, however, is the stable homotopy type, which was conceived as a first approximation to homotopy type. T... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S-duality_(homotopy_theory) |
In mathematics, Specht's theorem gives a necessary and sufficient condition for two complex matrices to be unitarily equivalent.

If A and B are unitarily equivalent, then tr AA* = tr BB*, where tr denotes the trace (in other words, the Frobenius norm is a unitary invariant).

Alternatively, the dilogarithm function is sometimes defined as ∫ 1 v ln t 1 − t d t = Li 2 ( 1 − v ) . {\displaystyle \int _{1}^{v}{\frac {\ln t}{1-t}}dt=\operatorname {Li} _{2}(1-v).} In hyperbolic geometry the dilogarithm can be used to compute the volume of an ideal simplex. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spence's_function |
Specifically, a simplex whose vertices have cross ratio z has hyperbolic volume D ( z ) = Im Li 2 ( z ) + arg ( 1 − z ) log | z | . {\displaystyle D(z)=\operatorname {Im} \operatorname {Li} _{2}(z)+\arg(1-z)\log |z|.} The function D(z) is sometimes called the Bloch-Wigner function. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spence's_function |

William Spence, after whom the function was named by early writers in the field, was a Scottish mathematician working in the early nineteenth century. He was at school with John Galt, who later wrote a biographical essay on Spence. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spence's_function |

The formula is similar to the Lanczos approximation, but has some distinct features.

In mathematics, The fundamental theorem of topos theory states that the slice E / X {\displaystyle \mathbf {E} /X} of a topos E {\displaystyle \mathbf {E} } over any one of its objects X {\displaystyle X} is itself a topos. Moreover, if there is a morphism f: A → B {\displaystyle f:A\rightarrow B} in E {\displaystyle \... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamental_theorem_of_topos_theory |
In mathematics, Theory of Lie groups is a series of books on Lie groups by Claude Chevalley (1946, 1951, 1955). The first in the series was one of the earliest books on Lie groups to treat them from the global point of view, and for many years was the standard text on Lie groups. The second and third volumes, on algebr... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_Lie_groups |
In mathematics, Thomae's formula is a formula introduced by Carl Johannes Thomae (1870) relating theta constants to the branch points of a hyperelliptic curve (Mumford 1984, section 8). | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomae's_formula |
In mathematics, Thurston's classification theorem characterizes homeomorphisms of a compact orientable surface. William Thurston's theorem completes the work initiated by Jakob Nielsen (1944). Given a homeomorphism f: S → S, there is a map g isotopic to f such that at least one of the following holds: g is periodic, i.... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nielsen–Thurston_classification |
In what follows, we assume S has genus at least two, as this is the case Thurston considered. (Note, however, that the cases where S has boundary or is not orientable are definitely still of interest.) The three types in this classification are not mutually exclusive, though a pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism is never perio... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nielsen–Thurston_classification |
In mathematics, Thurston's geometrization conjecture states that each of certain three-dimensional topological spaces has a unique geometric structure that can be associated with it. It is an analogue of the uniformization theorem for two-dimensional surfaces, which states that every simply connected Riemann surface ca... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometrisation_conjecture |
The conjecture was proposed by William Thurston (1982), and implies several other conjectures, such as the Poincaré conjecture and Thurston's elliptization conjecture. Thurston's hyperbolization theorem implies that Haken manifolds satisfy the geometrization conjecture. Thurston announced a proof in the 1980s and since... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometrisation_conjecture |
Grigori Perelman announced a proof of the full geometrization conjecture in 2003 using Ricci flow with surgery in two papers posted at the arxiv.org preprint server. Perelman's papers were studied by several independent groups that produced books and online manuscripts filling in the complete details of his arguments. ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometrisation_conjecture |
In mathematics, Thābit derived an equation for determining amicable numbers. His proof of this rule is presented in the Treatise on the Derivation of the Amicable Numbers in an Easy Way. This was done while writing on the theory of numbers, extending their use to describe the ratios between geometrical quantities, a st... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thābit_ibn_Qurra |
He provided a strengthened extension of Pythagoras' proof which included the knowledge of Euclid's fifth postulate. This postulate states that the intersection between two straight line segments combine to create two interior angles which are less than 180 degrees. The method of reduction and composition used by Thābit... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thābit_ibn_Qurra |
Thābit believed that geometry was tied with the equality and differences of magnitudes of lines and angles, as well as that ideas of motion (and ideas taken from physics more widely) should be integrated in geometry.The continued work done on geometric relations and the resulting exponential series allowed Thābit to ca... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thābit_ibn_Qurra |
His work with conic sections and the calculation of a paraboloid shape (cupola) show his proficiency as an Archimedean geometer. This is further embossed by Thābit's use of the Archimedean property in order to produce a rudimentary approximation of the volume of a paraboloid. The use of uneven sections, while relativel... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thābit_ibn_Qurra |
In mathematics, Toda–Smith complexes are spectra characterized by having a particularly simple BP-homology, and are useful objects in stable homotopy theory. Toda–Smith complexes provide examples of periodic self maps. These self maps were originally exploited in order to construct infinite families of elements in the ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toda–Smith_complex |
In mathematics, Tonelli's theorem in functional analysis is a fundamental result on the weak lower semicontinuity of nonlinear functionals on Lp spaces. As such, it has major implications for functional analysis and the calculus of variations. Roughly, it shows that weak lower semicontinuity for integral functionals is... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonelli's_theorem_(functional_analysis) |
In mathematics, Tsen's theorem states that a function field K of an algebraic curve over an algebraically closed field is quasi-algebraically closed (i.e., C1). This implies that the Brauer group of any such field vanishes, and more generally that all the Galois cohomology groups H i(K, K*) vanish for i ≥ 1. This resul... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsen's_theorem |
