https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dodecagram
In geometry, a dodecagram () is a star polygon or compound with 12 vertices. There is one regular dodecagram polygon (with Schläfli symbol and a turning number of 5). There are also 4 regular compounds and Regular dodecagram There is one regular form: {12/5}, containing 12 vertices, with a turning number of 5. A regular dodecagram has the same vertex arrangement as a regular dodecagon, which may be regarded as {12/1}. Dodecagrams as regular compounds There are four regular dodecagram star figures: {12/2}=2{6}, {12/3}=3{4}, {12/4}=4{3}, and {12/6}=6{2}. The first is a compound of two hexagons, the second is a compound of three squares, the third is a compound of four triangles, and the fourth is a compound of six straight-sided digons. The last two can be considered compounds of two compound hexagrams and the last as three compound tetragrams. Dodecagrams as isotoxal figures An isotoxal polygon has two vertices and one edge type within its symmetry class. There are 5 isotoxal dodecagram star with a degree of freedom of angles, which alternates vertices at two radii, one simple, 3 compounds, and 1 unicursal star. Dodecagrams as isogonal figures A regular dodecagram can be seen as a quasitruncated hexagon, t{6/5}={12/5}. Other isogonal (vertex-transitive) variations with equally spaced vertices can be constructed with two edge lengths. Complete graph Superimposing all the dodecagons and dodecagrams on each other – including the degenerate compound of six digons (line segments), {12/6} – produces the complete graph K12. Regular dodecagrams in polyhedra Dodecagrams can also be incorporated into uniform polyhedra. Below are the three prismatic uniform polyhedra containing regular dodecagrams (there are no other dodecagram-containing uniform polyhedra). Dodecagrams can also be incorporated into star tessellations of the Euclidean plane. Dodecagram Symbolism Dodecagrams or twelve-pointed stars have been used as symbols for the following: the twelve tribes of Israel, in Judaism the twelve disciples, in Christianity the twelve olympians, in Hellenic Polytheism the twelve signs of the zodiac the International Order of Twelve Knights and Daughters of Tabor, an African-American fraternal group the fictional secret society Manus Sancti, in the Knights of Manus Sancti series by Bryn Donovan The twelve tribes of Nauru on the national flag.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentagram%20map
In mathematics, the pentagram map is a discrete dynamical system on the moduli space of polygons in the projective plane. The pentagram map takes a given polygon, finds the intersections of the shortest diagonals of the polygon, and constructs a new polygon from these intersections. Richard Schwartz introduced the pentagram map for a general polygon in a 1992 paper though it seems that the special case, in which the map is defined for pentagons only, goes back to an 1871 paper of Alfred Clebsch and a 1945 paper of Theodore Motzkin. The pentagram map is similar in spirit to the constructions underlying Desargues' theorem and Poncelet's porism. It echoes the rationale and construction underlying a conjecture of Branko Grünbaum concerning the diagonals of a polygon. Definition of the map Basic construction Suppose that the vertices of the polygon P are given by The image of P under the pentagram map is the polygon Q with vertices as shown in the figure. Here is the intersection of the diagonals and , and so on. On a basic level, one can think of the pentagram map as an operation defined on convex polygons in the plane. From a more sophisticated point of view, the pentagram map is defined for a polygon contained in the projective plane over a field provided that the vertices are in sufficiently general position. The pentagram map commutes with projective transformations and thereby induces a mapping on the moduli space of projective equivalence classes of polygons. Labeling conventions The map is slightly problematic, in the sense that the indices of the P-vertices are naturally odd integers whereas the indices of Q-vertices are naturally even integers. A more conventional approach to the labeling would be to label the vertices of P and Q by integers of the same parity. One can arrange this either by adding or subtracting 1 from each of the indices of the Q-vertices. Either choice is equally canonical. An even more conventional choice would be to label the vertices of P and Q by consecutive integers, but again there are two natural choices for how to align these labellings: Either is just clockwise from or just counterclockwise. In most papers on the subject, some choice is made once and for all at the beginning of the paper and then the formulas are tuned to that choice. There is a perfectly natural way to label the vertices of the second iterate of the pentagram map by consecutive integers. For this reason, the second iterate of the pentagram map is more naturally considered as an iteration defined on labeled polygons. See the figure. Twisted polygons The pentagram map is also defined on the larger space of twisted polygons.

In the mathematics of paper folding, map folding and stamp folding are two problems of counting the number of ways that a piece of paper can be folded. In the stamp folding problem, the paper is a strip of stamps with creases between them, and the folds must lie on the creases. In the map folding problem, the paper is a map, divided by creases into rectangles, and the folds must again lie only along these creases. credits the invention of the stamp folding problem to Émile Lemoine. provides several other early references. Labeled stamps In the stamp folding problem, the paper to be folded is a strip of square or rectangular stamps, separated by creases, and the stamps can only be folded along those creases. In one commonly considered version of the problem, each stamp is considered to be distinguishable from each other stamp, so two foldings of a strip of stamps are considered equivalent only when they have the same vertical sequence of stamps. For example, there are six ways to fold a strip of three different stamps: These include all six permutations of the stamps, but for more than three stamps not all permutations are possible. If, for a permutation , there are two numbers and with the same parity such that the four numbers , , , and appear in in that cyclic order, then cannot be folded. The parity condition implies that the creases between stamps and , and between stamps and , appear on the same side of the stack of folded stamps, but the cyclic ordering condition implies that these two creases cross each other, a physical impossibility. For instance, the four-element permutation 1324 cannot be folded, because it has this forbidden pattern with and . All remaining permutations, without this pattern, can be folded. The number of different ways to fold a strip of stamps is given by the sequence 1, 2, 6, 16, 50, 144, 462, 1392, 4536, 14060, 46310, 146376, 485914, 1557892, 5202690, ... . These numbers are always divisible by (because a cyclic permutation of a foldable stamp sequence is always itself foldable), and the quotients of this division are 1, 1, 2, 4, 10, 24, 66, 174, 504, 1406, 4210, 12198, 37378, 111278, 346846, 1053874, ... , the number of topologically distinct ways that a half-infinite curve can make crossings with a line, called "semimeanders". These are closely related to meanders, ways for a closed curve to make the same number of crossings with a line. Meanders correspond to solutions of the stamp-folding problem in which the first and last stamp can be connected to each other to form a continuous loop of stamps. In the 1960s, John E. Koehler and W. F. Lunnon implemented algorithms that, at that time, could calculate these numbers for up to 28 stamps. Despite additional research, the known methods for calculating these numbers take exponential time as a function of . Thus, there is no formula or efficient algorithm known that could extend this sequence to very large values of . Nevertheless, heuristic methods

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison%20of%20vector%20algebra%20and%20geometric%20algebra
Geometric algebra is an extension of vector algebra, providing additional algebraic structures on vector spaces, with geometric interpretations. Vector algebra uses all dimensions and signatures, as does geometric algebra, notably 3+1 spacetime as well as 2 dimensions. Basic concepts and operations Geometric algebra (GA) is an extension or completion of vector algebra (VA). The reader is herein assumed to be familiar with the basic concepts and operations of VA and this article will mainly concern itself with operations in the GA of 3D space (nor is this article intended to be mathematically rigorous). In GA, vectors are not normally written boldface as the meaning is usually clear from the context. The fundamental difference is that GA provides a new product of vectors called the "geometric product". Elements of GA are graded multivectors: scalars are grade 0, usual vectors are grade 1, bivectors are grade 2 and the highest grade (3 in the 3D case) is traditionally called the pseudoscalar and designated . The ungeneralized 3D vector form of the geometric product is: that is the sum of the usual dot (inner) product and the outer (exterior) product (this last is closely related to the cross product and will be explained below). In VA, entities such as pseudovectors and pseudoscalars need to be bolted on, whereas in GA the equivalent bivector and pseudovector respectively exist naturally as subspaces of the algebra. For example, applying vector calculus in 2 dimensions, such as to compute torque or curl, requires adding an artificial 3rd dimension and extending the vector field to be constant in that dimension, or alternately considering these to be scalars. The torque or curl is then a normal vector field in this 3rd dimension. By contrast, geometric algebra in 2 dimensions defines these as a pseudoscalar field (a bivector), without requiring a 3rd dimension. Similarly, the scalar triple product is ad hoc, and can instead be expressed uniformly using the exterior product and the geometric product. Translations between formalisms Here are some comparisons between standard vector relations and their corresponding exterior product and geometric product equivalents. All the exterior and geometric product equivalents here are good for more than three dimensions, and some also for two. In two dimensions the cross product is undefined even if what it describes (like torque) is perfectly well defined in a plane without introducing an arbitrary normal vector outside of the space. Many of these relationships only require the introduction of the exterior product to generalize, but since that may not be familiar to somebody with only a background in vector algebra and calculus, some examples are given. Cross and exterior products is perpendicular to the plane containing and . is an oriented representation of the same plane. We have the pseudoscalar (right handed orthonormal frame) and so returns a bivector and returns a vector p
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonious%20set
In mathematics, a harmonious set is a subset of a locally compact abelian group on which every weak character may be uniformly approximated by strong characters. Equivalently, a suitably defined dual set is relatively dense in the Pontryagin dual of the group. This notion was introduced by Yves Meyer in 1970 and later turned out to play an important role in the mathematical theory of quasicrystals. Some related concepts are model sets, Meyer sets, and cut-and-project sets. Definition Let Λ be a subset of a locally compact abelian group G and Λd be the subgroup of G generated by Λ, with discrete topology. A weak character is a restriction to Λ of an algebraic homomorphism from Λd into the circle group: A strong character is a restriction to Λ of a continuous homomorphism from G to T, that is an element of the Pontryagin dual of G. A set Λ is harmonious if every weak character may be approximated by strong characters uniformly on Λ. Thus for any ε > 0 and any weak character χ, there exists a strong character ξ such that If the locally compact abelian group G is separable and metrizable (its topology may be defined by a translation-invariant metric) then harmonious sets admit another, related, description. Given a subset Λ of G and a positive ε, let Mε be the subset of the Pontryagin dual of G consisting of all characters that are almost trivial on Λ: Then Λ is harmonious if the sets Mε are relatively dense in the sense of Besicovitch: for every ε > 0 there exists a compact subset Kε of the Pontryagin dual such that Properties A subset of a harmonious set is harmonious. If Λ is a harmonious set and F is a finite set then the set Λ + F is also harmonious. The next two properties show that the notion of a harmonious set is nontrivial only when the ambient group is neither compact nor discrete. A finite set Λ is always harmonious. If the group G is compact then, conversely, every harmonious set is finite. If G is a discrete group then every set is harmonious. Examples Interesting examples of multiplicatively closed harmonious sets of real numbers arise in the theory of diophantine approximation. Let G be the additive group of real numbers, θ >1, and the set Λ consist of all finite sums of different powers of θ. Then Λ is harmonious if and only if θ is a Pisot number. In particular, the sequence of powers of a Pisot number is harmonious. Let K be a real algebraic number field of degree n over Q and the set Λ consist of all Pisot or Salem numbers of degree n in K. Then Λ is contained in the open interval (1,∞), closed under multiplication, and harmonious. Conversely, any set of real numbers with these 3 properties consists of all Pisot or Salem numbers of degree n in some real algebraic number field K of degree n.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meyer%20set
In mathematics, a Meyer set or almost lattice is a relatively dense set X of points in the Euclidean plane or a higher-dimensional Euclidean space such that its Minkowski difference with itself is uniformly discrete. Meyer sets have several equivalent characterizations; they are named after Yves Meyer, who introduced and studied them in the context of diophantine approximation. Nowadays Meyer sets are best known as mathematical model for quasicrystals. However, Meyer's work precedes the discovery of quasicrystals by more than a decade and was entirely motivated by number theoretic questions. Definition and characterizations A subset X of a metric space is relatively dense if there exists a number r such that all points of X are within distance r of X, and it is uniformly discrete if there exists a number ε such that no two points of X are within distance ε of each other. A set that is both relatively dense and uniformly discrete is called a Delone set. When X is a subset of a vector space, its Minkowski difference X − X is the set {x − y | x, y in X} of differences of pairs of elements of X. With these definitions, a Meyer set may be defined as a relatively dense set X for which X − X is uniformly discrete. Equivalently, it is a Delone set for which X − X is Delone, or a Delone set X for which there exists a finite set F with X − X ⊂ X + F Some additional equivalent characterizations involve the set defined for a given X and ε, and approximating (as ε approaches zero) the definition of the reciprocal lattice of a lattice. A relatively dense set X is a Meyer set if and only if For all ε > 0, Xε is relatively dense, or equivalently There exists an ε with 0 < ε < 1/2 for which Xε is relatively dense. A character of an additively closed subset of a vector space is a function that maps the set to the unit circle in the plane of complex numbers, such that the sum of any two elements is mapped to the product of their images. A set X is a harmonious set if, for every character χ on the additive closure of X and every ε > 0, there exists a continuous character on the whole space that ε-approximates χ. Then a relatively dense set X is a Meyer set if and only if it is harmonious. Examples Meyer sets include The points of any lattice The vertices of any rhombic Penrose tiling The Minkowski sum of another Meyer set with any nonempty finite set Any relatively dense subset of another Meyer set References Metric geometry Crystallography Lattice points

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit%20hyperbola
In geometry, the unit hyperbola is the set of points (x,y) in the Cartesian plane that satisfy the implicit equation In the study of indefinite orthogonal groups, the unit hyperbola forms the basis for an alternative radial length Whereas the unit circle surrounds its center, the unit hyperbola requires the conjugate hyperbola to complement it in the plane. This pair of hyperbolas share the asymptotes y = x and y = −x. When the conjugate of the unit hyperbola is in use, the alternative radial length is The unit hyperbola is a special case of the rectangular hyperbola, with a particular orientation, location, and scale. As such, its eccentricity equals The unit hyperbola finds applications where the circle must be replaced with the hyperbola for purposes of analytic geometry. A prominent instance is the depiction of spacetime as a pseudo-Euclidean space. There the asymptotes of the unit hyperbola form a light cone. Further, the attention to areas of hyperbolic sectors by Gregoire de Saint-Vincent led to the logarithm function and the modern parametrization of the hyperbola by sector areas. When the notions of conjugate hyperbolas and hyperbolic angles are understood, then the classical complex numbers, which are built around the unit circle, can be replaced with numbers built around the unit hyperbola. Asymptotes Generally asymptotic lines to a curve are said to converge toward the curve. In algebraic geometry and the theory of algebraic curves there is a different approach to asymptotes. The curve is first interpreted in the projective plane using homogeneous coordinates. Then the asymptotes are lines that are tangent to the projective curve at a point at infinity, thus circumventing any need for a distance concept and convergence. In a common framework (x, y, z) are homogeneous coordinates with the line at infinity determined by the equation z = 0. For instance, C. G. Gibson wrote: For the standard rectangular hyperbola in ℝ2, the corresponding projective curve is which meets z = 0 at the points P = (1 : 1 : 0) and Q = (1 : −1 : 0). Both P and Q are simple on F, with tangents x + y = 0, x − y = 0; thus we recover the familiar 'asymptotes' of elementary geometry. Minkowski diagram The Minkowski diagram is drawn in a spacetime plane where the spatial aspect has been restricted to a single dimension. The units of distance and time on such a plane are units of 30 centimetres length and nanoseconds, or astronomical units and intervals of 8 minutes and 20 seconds, or light years and years. Each of these scales of coordinates results in photon connections of events along diagonal lines of slope plus or minus one. Five elements constitute the diagram Hermann Minkowski used to describe the relativity transformations: the unit hyperbola, its conjugate hyperbola, the axes of the hyperbola, a diameter of the unit hyperbola, and the conjugate diameter. The plane with the axes refers to a resting frame of reference. The diameter of th

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neighborly%20polytope
In geometry and polyhedral combinatorics, a -neighborly polytope is a convex polytope in which every set of or fewer vertices forms a face. For instance, a 2-neighborly polytope is a polytope in which every pair of vertices is connected by an edge, forming a complete graph. 2-neighborly polytopes with more than four vertices may exist only in spaces of four or more dimensions, and in general a -neighborly polytope (other than a simplex) requires a dimension of or more. A -simplex is -neighborly. A polytope is said to be neighborly, without specifying , if it is -neighborly for . If we exclude simplices, this is the maximum possible : in fact, every polytope that is -neighborly for some is a simplex. In a -neighborly polytope with , every 2-face must be a triangle, and in a -neighborly polytope with , every 3-face must be a tetrahedron. More generally, in any -neighborly polytope, all faces of dimension less than are simplices. The cyclic polytopes formed as the convex hulls of finite sets of points on the moment curve in -dimensional space are automatically neighborly. Theodore Motzkin conjectured that all neighborly polytopes are combinatorially equivalent to cyclic polytopes. However, contrary to this conjecture, there are many neighborly polytopes that are not cyclic: the number of combinatorially distinct neighborly polytopes grows superexponentially, both in the number of vertices of the polytope and in the dimension. The convex hull of a set of random points, drawn from a Gaussian distribution with the number of points proportional to the dimension, is with high probability -neighborly for a value that is also proportional to the dimension. The number of faces of all dimensions of a neighborly polytope in an even number of dimensions is determined solely from its dimension and its number of vertices by the Dehn–Sommerville equations: the number of -dimensional faces, , satisfies the inequality where the asterisk means that the sums ends at and final term of the sum should be halved if is even. According to the upper bound theorem of , neighborly polytopes achieve the maximum possible number of faces of any -vertex -dimensional convex polytope. A generalized version of the happy ending problem applies to higher-dimensional point sets, and implies that for every dimension and every there exists a number with the property that every points in general position in -dimensional space contain a subset of points that form the vertices of a neighborly polytope.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary%20vector%20bundle%20structure
In mathematics, particularly differential topology, the secondary vector bundle structure refers to the natural vector bundle structure on the total space TE of the tangent bundle of a smooth vector bundle , induced by the push-forward of the original projection map . This gives rise to a double vector bundle structure . In the special case , where is the double tangent bundle, the secondary vector bundle is isomorphic to the tangent bundle of through the canonical flip. Construction of the secondary vector bundle structure Let be a smooth vector bundle of rank . Then the preimage of any tangent vector in in the push-forward of the canonical projection is a smooth submanifold of dimension , and it becomes a vector space with the push-forwards of the original addition and scalar multiplication as its vector space operations. The triple becomes a smooth vector bundle with these vector space operations on its fibres. Proof Let be a local coordinate system on the base manifold with and let be a coordinate system on adapted to it. Then so the fiber of the secondary vector bundle structure at in is of the form Now it turns out that gives a local trivialization for , and the push-forwards of the original vector space operations read in the adapted coordinates as and so each fibre is a vector space and the triple is a smooth vector bundle. Linearity of connections on vector bundles The general Ehresmann connection on a vector bundle can be characterized in terms of the connector map where is the vertical lift, and is the vertical projection. The mapping induced by an Ehresmann connection is a covariant derivative on in the sense that if and only if the connector map is linear with respect to the secondary vector bundle structure on . Then the connection is called linear. Note that the connector map is automatically linear with respect to the tangent bundle structure .

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MathOverflow
MathOverflow is a mathematics question-and-answer (Q&A) website, which serves as an online community of mathematicians. It allows users to ask questions, submit answers, and rate both, all while getting merit points for their activities. It is a part of the Stack Exchange Network, but distinct from math.stackexchange.com. It is primarily for asking questions on mathematics research – i.e. related to unsolved problems and the extension of knowledge of mathematics into areas that are not yet known – and does not welcome requests from non-mathematicians for instruction, for example homework exercises. It does welcome various questions on other topics that might normally be discussed among mathematicians, for example about publishing, refereeing, advising, getting tenure, etc. It is generally inhospitable to questions perceived as tendentious or argumentative. Origin and history The website was started by Berkeley graduate students and postdocs Anton Geraschenko, David Zureick-Brown, and Scott Morrison on 28 September 2009. The hosting was supported by Ravi Vakil. The site originally ran on a separate installation of the StackExchange 1.0 software engine; on June 25, 2013, it was integrated in the regular Stack Exchange Network, running SE 2.0. Naming According to MathOverflow FAQ, the proper spelling is "MathOverflow" rather than "Math Overflow". Use of mathematical formulas The original version of the website did not support LaTeX markup for mathematical formulas. To support most of the functionality of LaTeX, MathJax was added in order for the site to transform math equations into their appropriate forms. In its current state, any post including "Math Mode" (text between $'s) will translate into proper mathematical notation. Usage As of April 4, 2012, there were 16,496 registered users on MathOverflow, most of whom were located in the United States (35%), India (12%), and the United Kingdom (6%). By December 11, 2018, the number of registered users had grown to 87,850. As of June 2019, 123,448 questions have been posted. In 2011, questions were answered an average of 3.9 hours after they were posted, and "Acceptable" answers took an average of 5.01 hours. Reception Terence Tao compared it to "the venerable newsgroup sci.math, but with more modern, 'Web 2.0' features." John C. Baez writes that "website 'Math Overflow' has become a universal clearinghouse for math questions". According to Gil Kalai, MathOverflow "is ran by an energetic and impressive group of very (very very) young people". Jordan Ellenberg comments that the website "offers a constantly changing array of new questions" and is "addictive" in a "particularly pure form", as he compares it to the Polymath Project. Jared Keller in The Atlantic writes, "Math Overflow is almost an anti-social network, focused solely on productively addressing the problems posed by its users." He quotes Scott Morrison saying "Mathematicians as a whole are surprisingly skeptical of many as

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical%20risk
Statistical risk is a quantification of a situation's risk using statistical methods. These methods can be used to estimate a probability distribution for the outcome of a specific variable, or at least one or more key parameters of that distribution, and from that estimated distribution a risk function can be used to obtain a single non-negative number representing a particular conception of the risk of the situation. Statistical risk is taken account of in a variety of contexts including finance and economics, and there are many risk functions that can be used depending on the context. One measure of the statistical risk of a continuous variable, such as the return on an investment, is simply the estimated variance of the variable, or equivalently the square root of the variance, called the standard deviation. Another measure in finance, one which views upside risk as unimportant compared to downside risk, is the downside beta. In the context of a binary variable, a simple statistical measure of risk is simply the probability that a variable will take on the lower of two values. There is a sense in which one risk A can be said to be unambiguously greater than another risk B (that is, greater for any reasonable risk function): namely, if A is a mean-preserving spread of B. This means that the probability density function of A can be formed, roughly speaking, by "spreading out" that of B. However, this is only a partial ordering: most pairs of risks cannot be unambiguously ranked in this way, and different risk functions applied to the estimated distributions of two such unordered risky variables will give different answers as to which is riskier. In the context of statistical estimation itself, the risk involved in estimating a particular parameter is a measure of the degree to which the estimate is likely to be inaccurate.

Wilhelmus Anthonius Josephus Luxemburg (11 April 1929 – 2 October 2018) was a Dutch American mathematician who was a professor of mathematics at the California Institute of Technology. He received his B.A. from the University of Leiden in 1950; his M.A., in 1953; his Ph.D., from the Delft Institute of Technology, in 1955. He was assistant professor at Caltech during 1958–60; Associate Professor, during 1960–62; Professor, during 1962–2000; Professor Emeritus, from 2000. He was the Executive Officer for Mathematics during 1970–85. In 2012 he became a fellow of the American Mathematical Society. Luxemburg became a corresponding member of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1974. Luxemburg contributed to the development of non-standard analysis by popularizing the construction of hyperreal numbers in the 1960s. Though Edwin Hewitt had shown the construction in 1948, the formalization of non-standard analysis is generally associated with Abraham Robinson. Other notable work he did was in the theory of Riesz spaces (partially ordered vector spaces where the order structure is a lattice). Selected publications 1955: Banach function spaces.

Carol Lee Walker (born 1935) is a retired American mathematician and mathematics textbook author. Walker's early mathematical research, in the 1960s and 1970s, concerned the theory of abelian groups. In the 1990s, her interests shifted to fuzzy logic and fuzzy control systems. Education and career Walker was born in Martinez, California on August 19, 1935, and went to high school in Montrose, Colorado. She studied music education at the University of Colorado Boulder, with a year off to work as a primary-school music teacher in Colorado, and graduated in 1957. Next, she went to the University of Denver for graduate study in mathematics, but after one year transferred to New Mexico State University, where she earned a master's degree in 1961 and completed her PhD in 1963. Her dissertation, On -pure sequences of abelian groups, was supervised by David Kent Harrison. After postdoctoral research at the Institute for Advanced Study, she returned to Mexico State University as an assistant professor in 1964, and quickly earned tenure as an associate professor in 1966. She was promoted to full professor in 1972. She chaired the Department of Mathematical Sciences from 1979 to 1993, and served as associate dean of arts and sciences from 1993 until her retirement in 1996. Books Walker is the coauthor of books including: Mathematics for the Liberal Arts Student (with Fred Richman and Robert J. Wisner, Brooks-Cole, 1967; 2nd ed., 1973; 3rd ed., with James Brewer, Prentice-Hall, 2000; 4th ed., 2003) Doing Mathematics with Scientific WorkPlace (with Darel Hardy, Brooks-Cole, 1995; multiple editions) A First Course in Fuzzy and Neural Control (with Hung T.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omnitruncated%20polyhedron
In geometry, an omnitruncated polyhedron is a truncated quasiregular polyhedron. When they are alternated, they produce the snub polyhedra. All omnitruncated polyhedra are zonohedra. They have Wythoff symbol p q r | and vertex figures as 2p.2q.2r. More generally an omnitruncated polyhedron is a bevel operator in Conway polyhedron notation. List of convex omnitruncated polyhedra There are three convex forms. They can be seen as red faces of one regular polyhedron, yellow or green faces of the dual polyhedron, and blue faces at the truncated vertices of the quasiregular polyhedron. List of nonconvex omnitruncated polyhedra There are 5 nonconvex uniform omnitruncated polyhedra. Other even-sided nonconvex polyhedra There are 8 nonconvex forms with mixed Wythoff symbols p q (r s) |, and bow-tie shaped vertex figures, 2p.2q.-2q.-2p. They are not true omnitruncated polyhedra: the true omnitruncates p q r | or p q s | have coinciding 2r-gonal or 2s-gonal faces respectively that must be removed to form a proper polyhedron. All these polyhedra are one-sided, i.e. non-orientable. The p q r | degenerate Wythoff symbols are listed first, followed by the actual mixed Wythoff symbols. General omnitruncations (bevel) Omnitruncations are also called cantitruncations or truncated rectifications (tr), and Conway's bevel (b) operator. When applied to nonregular polyhedra, new polyhedra can be generated, for example these 2-uniform polyhedra: See also Uniform polyhedron References Har'El, Z.

In algebraic geometry, the Fourier–Deligne transform, or ℓ-adic Fourier transform, or geometric Fourier transform, is an operation on objects of the derived category of ℓ-adic sheaves over the affine line. It was introduced by Pierre Deligne on November 29, 1976 in a letter to David Kazhdan as an analogue of the usual Fourier transform. It was used by Gérard Laumon to simplify Deligne's proof of the Weil conjectures. References Algebraic geometry
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma%20transferred%20wire%20arc%20thermal%20spraying
Plasma transferred wire arc (PTWA) thermal spraying is a thermal spraying process that deposits a coating on the internal surface of a cylindrical surface, or external surface of any geometry. It is predominantly known for its use in coating the cylinder bores of an internal combustion engine, enabling the construction of aluminium engine blocks without cast iron cylinder sleeves. The inventors of PTWA received the 2009 IPO National Inventor of the Year award. This technology was initially patented and developed by Flame-Spray Industries, and subsequently improved upon by Flame-Spray and Ford. Process A single conductive wire is used as feedstock for the system. A supersonic plasma jet—formed by a transferred arc between a non-consumable cathode and the wire—melts and atomizes the wire. A stream of air transports the atomized metal onto the substrate. The particles flatten upon striking the surface of the substrate due to their high kinetic energy. The particles rapidly solidify upon contact and can assume both crystalline and amorphous phases. There is also the possibility of producing multi-layer coatings via stacked layers of particles, increasing wear resistance. All conductive wires up to and including can be used as feedstock material, including "cored" wires. Refractory metals, as well as low melt materials, are easily deposited. Applications PTWA can be used to apply a coating to wear surfaces of engine or transmission components, serving as a plain bearing. For the cylinder bores of hypoeutectic aluminum-silicon alloy blocks, PTWA's main advantages over cast iron liners are reduced weight and cost. The thinner bore surface also allows for more compact bore spacing, and can potentially provide better heat transfer. Automotive engines that use PTWA include the BMW B58, Nissan VR38DETT, and Ford Coyote. Caterpillar and Ford also use PTWA to remanufacture engines.
