Group of rational points on the unit circle In mathematics, the rational points on the unit circle are those points ("x", "y") such that both "x" and "y" are rational numbers ("fractions") and satisfy "x" + "y" = 1. The set of such points turns out to be closely related to primitive Pythagorean triples. Consider a primitive right triangle, that is, with integral side lengths "a", "b", "c", with "c" the hypotenuse, such that the sides have no common factor larger than 1. Then on the unit circle there exists the rational point ("a"/"c", "b"/"c"), which, in the complex plane, is just "a"/"c" + "ib"/"c", where "i" is the imaginary unit. Conversely, if ("x", "y") is a rational point on the unit circle in the 1st quadrant of the coordinate system (i.e. "x" > 0, "y" > 0), then there exists a primitive right triangle with sides "xc", "yc", "c", with "c" being the least common multiple of "x" and "y" denominators. There is a correspondence between points ("x","y") in the "x"-"y" plane and points "x" + "iy" in the complex plane which will be used below, with ("a", "b") taken as equal to "a" + "ib".
Little's law In queueing theory, a discipline within the mathematical theory of probability, Little's result, theorem, lemma, law or formula is a theorem by John Little which states that the long-term average number "L" of customers in a stationary system is equal to the long-term average effective arrival rate "λ" multiplied by the average time "W" that a customer spends in the system. Expressed algebraically the law is
Quartan prime In mathematics, a quartan prime is a prime number of the form "x" + "y", where "x" > 0, "y" > 0 (and "x" and "y" are integers). The odd quartan primes are of the form 16"n" + 1.
Schwarz's list In the mathematical theory of special functions, Schwarz's list or the Schwartz table is the list of 15 cases found by when hypergeometric functions can be expressed algebraically. More precisely, it is a listing of parameters determining the cases in which the hypergeometric equation has a finite monodromy group, or equivalently has two independent solutions that are algebraic functions. It lists 15 cases, divided up by the isomorphism class of the monodromy group (excluding the case of a cyclic group), and was first derived by Schwarz by methods of complex analytic geometry. Correspondingly the statement is not directly in terms of the parameters specifying the hypergeometric equation, but in terms of quantities used to describe certain spherical triangles.
Zariski surface In algebraic geometry, a branch of mathematics, a Zariski surface is a surface over a field of characteristic "p" > 0 such that there is a dominant inseparable map of degree "p" from the projective plane to the surface. In particular, all Zariski surfaces are unirational. They were named by Piotr Blass in 1977 after Oscar Zariski who used them in 1958 to give examples of unirational surfaces in characteristic "p" > 0 that are not rational. (In characteristic 0 by contrast, Castelnuovo's theorem implies that all unirational surfaces are rational.)
Kempf vanishing theorem In algebraic geometry, the Kempf vanishing theorem, introduced by , states that the higher cohomology group "H"("G"/"B","L"(λ)) ("i" > 0) vanishes whenever λ is a dominant weight of "B". Here "G" is a reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed field, "B" a Borel subgroup, and "L"(λ) a line bundle associated to λ. In characteristic 0 this is a special case of the Borel–Weil–Bott theorem, but unlike the Borel–Weil–Bott theorem, the Kempf vanishing theorem still holds in positive characteristic.
Pillai prime In number theory, a Pillai prime is a prime number "p" for which there is an integer "n" > 0 such that the factorial of "n" is one less than a multiple of the prime, but the prime is not one more than a multiple of "n". To put it algebraically, formula_1 but formula_2. The first few Pillai primes are
Nowhere continuous function In mathematics, a nowhere continuous function, also called an everywhere discontinuous function, is a function that is not continuous at any point of its domain. If "f" is a function from real numbers to real numbers, then "f" is nowhere continuous if for each point "x" there is an "ε" > 0 such that for each "δ" > 0 we can find a point "y" such that and . Therefore, no matter how close we get to any fixed point, there are even closer points at which the function takes not-nearby values.
Golden ratio In mathematics, two quantities are in the golden ratio if their ratio is the same as the ratio of their sum to the larger of the two quantities. The figure on the right illustrates the geometric relationship. Expressed algebraically, for quantities "a" and "b" with "a" > "b" > 0,
Doubling space In mathematics, a metric space "X" with metric "d" is said to be doubling if there is some constant "M" > 0 such that for any "x" in "X" and "r" > 0, it is possible to cover the ball "B"("x", "r") = {"y"|"d(x, y)" < "r"} with the union of at most "M" many balls of radius "r"/2. The base-2 logarithm of "M" is often referred to as the doubling dimension of "X". Euclidean spaces ℝ equipped with the usual Euclidean metric are examples of doubling spaces where the doubling constant "M" depends on the dimension "d".
Crazy Castle (series) The "Crazy Castle" series is an action-puzzle game series created by Kemco and released on the Famicom Disk System, NES, Game Boy, Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance.

Pete (Disney) Pete (also called Peg-Leg Pete, Pistol Pete and Black Pete, among other names) is an anthropomorphic cartoon character created in 1925 by Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks. He is a character of The Walt Disney Company and often appears as a nemesis and the main antagonist in Mickey Mouse universe stories. He was originally an anthropomorphic bear but with the advent of Mickey Mouse in 1928, he was defined as a cat. Pete is the oldest continuing Disney character, having debuted three years before Mickey Mouse in the cartoon "Alice Solves the Puzzle" (1925).
Sony marketing It was for the TR-6 radio that Sony first contracted Atchan, a cartoon character created by Fuyuhiko Okabe, to become its advertising character. Now known as "Sony Boy", the character first appeared in a cartoon ad holding a TR-6 to his ear, but went on to represent the company in ads for a variety of products well into the mid-sixties.
Donald Duck Donald Duck is a cartoon character created in 1934 at Walt Disney Productions. Donald is an anthropomorphic white duck with a yellow-orange bill, legs, and feet. He typically wears a sailor shirt and cap with a bow tie. Donald is most famous for his semi-intelligible speech and his mischievous and temperamental personality. Along with his friend Mickey Mouse, Donald is one of the most popular Disney characters and was included in TV Guide's list of the 50 greatest cartoon characters of all time in 2002. He has appeared in more films than any other Disney character, and is the most published comic book character in the world outside of the superhero genre.
Vinylmation Vinylmation is a brand of 1.5", 3", and 9" vinyl collectibles sold at Disney theme parks, select Disney Stores, and the online Disney Store. The name "Vinylmation" is a combination of the word "Animation" and "Vinyl". Most figures are all shaped with the body of Mickey Mouse but have different themed markings, colors, and patterns. This means that all figures have round mouse ears, whether or not the painted character has them. This is accommodated by painting the ears with backgrounds - stars, stripes, rainbows - to match the painted character. The series exception is the Park Starz series which does not resemble Mickey at all, and more closely resembles iconic figures from the parks. Vinylmation was first introduced in July 2008, and the first figures were introduced in November 2008.
Secret Squirrel Secret Squirrel is a cartoon character created by Hanna-Barbera and also the name of his segment in "The Atom Ant/Secret Squirrel Show", which debuted in 1965.

Secret first appeared in a prime-time animated special called "The World of Atom Ant and Secret Squirrel", which aired on NBC on September 12, 1965. The show's half-hours included three individual cartoon segments: "Secret Squirrel", "Squiddly Diddly" and "Winsome Witch".
Felix the Cat Felix the Cat is a funny-animal cartoon character created in the silent film era. The anthropomorphic black cat with his black body, white eyes, and giant grin, coupled with the surrealism of the situations in which his cartoons place him, combine to make Felix one of the most recognized cartoon characters in film history. Felix was the first character from animation to attain a level of popularity sufficient to draw movie audiences.
Pluto (Disney) Pluto, also called Pluto the Pup, is a cartoon character created in 1930 at Walt Disney Productions. He is a yellow-orange color, medium-sized, short-haired dog with black ears. Unlike most Disney characters, Pluto is not anthropomorphic beyond some characteristics such as facial expression, though he did speak for a short portion of his history. He is Mickey Mouse's pet. Officially a mixed-breed dog, he made his debut as a bloodhound in the Mickey Mouse cartoon "The Chain Gang". Together with Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, and Goofy, Pluto is one of the "Sensational Six"—the biggest stars in the Disney universe. Though all six are non-human animals, Pluto alone is not dressed as a human.
