Typical traps are points, lines, circles, flower shapes and even raster images. Orbit traps are typically used to colour two dimens... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frucht%27s%20theorem | Frucht's theorem is a theorem in algebraic graph theory conjectured by Dénes Kőnig in 1936 and proved by Robert Frucht in 1939. It states that every finite group is the group of symmetries of a finite undirected graph. More strongly, for any finite group G there exist infinitely many non-isomorphic simple connected gra... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenDNSSEC | OpenDNSSEC is a computer program that manages the security of domain names on the Internet. The project intends to drive adoption of Domain Name System Security Extensions (DNSSEC) to further enhance Internet security.
OpenDNSSEC was created as an open-source turn-key solution for DNSSEC. It secures DNS zone data just... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalized%20context-free%20grammar | Generalized context-free grammar (GCFG) is a grammar formalism that expands on context-free grammars by adding potentially non-context-free composition functions to rewrite rules. Head grammar (and its weak equivalents) is an instance of such a GCFG which is known to be especially adept at handling a wide variety of no... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta%20skeleton | In computational geometry and geometric graph theory, a β-skeleton or beta skeleton is an undirected graph defined from a set of points in the Euclidean plane. Two points p and q are connected by an edge whenever all the angles prq are sharper than a threshold determined from the numerical parameter β.
Circle-based de... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimal%20logic | Minimal logic, or minimal calculus, is a symbolic logic system originally developed by Ingebrigt Johansson. It is an intuitionistic and paraconsistent logic, that rejects both the law of the excluded middle as well as the principle of explosion (ex falso quodlibet), and therefore holding neither of the following two de... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lipid%20droplet | Lipid droplets, also referred to as lipid bodies, oil bodies or adiposomes, are lipid-rich cellular organelles that regulate the storage and hydrolysis of neutral lipids and are found largely in the adipose tissue. They also serve as a reservoir for cholesterol and acyl-glycerols for membrane formation and maintenance.... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superpedia | Superpedia is an Indonesian free-access online dictionary and encyclopedia initiated by the Rumah Ilmu Indonesia Foundation on 19 October 2008.
Superpedia runs on the MediaWiki software, which is also used to run Wikimedia Foundation projects. At the end of January 2010, the number of articles reached 30,000. At the e... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear%20moulding | In histopathology, nuclear moulding, also nuclear molding, is conformity of adjacent cell nuclei to one another.
It is a feature of small cell carcinomas and particularly useful for differentiation of small cell and non-small cell carcinomas, i.e. adenocarcinoma and squamous carcinoma.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formazine | Formazine (formazin) is a heterocyclic polymer produced by reaction of hexamethylenetetramine with hydrazine sulfate.
The hexamethylenetetramine tetrahedral cage-like structure, similar to adamantane, serves as molecular building block to form a tridimensional polymeric network.
Formazine is very poorly soluble in w... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consensus%20dynamics | Consensus dynamics or agreement dynamics is an area of research lying at the intersection of systems theory and graph theory. A major topic of investigation is the agreement or consensus problem in multi-agent systems that concerns processes by which a collection of interacting agents achieve a common goal. Networks of... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional%20renormalization%20group | In theoretical physics, functional renormalization group (FRG) is an implementation of the renormalization group (RG) concept which is used in quantum and statistical field theory, especially when dealing with strongly interacting systems. The method combines functional methods of quantum field theory with the intuitiv... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bateman%27s%20principle | Bateman's principle, in evolutionary biology, is that in most species, variability in reproductive success (or reproductive variance) is greater in males than in females. It was first proposed by Angus John Bateman (1919–1996), an English geneticist. Bateman suggested that, since males are capable of producing millions... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florida%20Automatic%20Computer | FLAC, the Florida Automatic Computer, was an early digital electronic computer built for the United States Air Force at Patrick Air Force Base (PAFB) in Brevard County of Florida, to perform missile data reduction. The computer began service in 1953.
The system's architecture resembled that of the many machines of th... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient%20of%20fractional%20parentage | In physics, coefficients of fractional parentage (cfp's) can be used to obtain anti-symmetric many-body states for like particles. In a jj-coupling scheme they are defined by the following relation.
The state is normalized and totally anti-symmetric with respect to permutations of all its particles, while the sta... |
