https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Join-calculus
The join-calculus is a process calculus developed at INRIA. The join-calculus was developed to provide a formal basis for the design of distributed programming languages, and therefore intentionally avoids communications constructs found in other process calculi, such as rendezvous communications, which are difficult t...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden%20triangle%20%28mathematics%29
A golden triangle, also called a sublime triangle, is an isosceles triangle in which the duplicated side is in the golden ratio to the base side: Angles The vertex angle is: Hence the golden triangle is an acute (isosceles) triangle. Since the angles of a triangle sum to radians, each of the base angles (CBX and...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indeterminate%20equation
In mathematics, particularly in algebra, an indeterminate equation is an equation for which there is more than one solution. For example, the equation is a simple indeterminate equation, as is . Indeterminate equations cannot be solved uniquely. In fact, in some cases it might even have infinitely many solutions. Some...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-vertex%20theorem
The four-vertex theorem of geometry states that the curvature along a simple, closed, smooth plane curve has at least four local extrema (specifically, at least two local maxima and at least two local minima). The name of the theorem derives from the convention of calling an extreme point of the curvature function a ve...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leaky%20integrator
In mathematics, a leaky integrator equation is a specific differential equation, used to describe a component or system that takes the integral of an input, but gradually leaks a small amount of input over time. It appears commonly in hydraulics, electronics, and neuroscience where it can represent either a single neu...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sylvester%27s%20sequence
In number theory, Sylvester's sequence is an integer sequence in which each term is the product of the previous terms, plus one. The first few terms of the sequence are 2, 3, 7, 43, 1807, 3263443, 10650056950807, 113423713055421844361000443 . Sylvester's sequence is named after James Joseph Sylvester, who first invest...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semiparametric%20regression
In statistics, semiparametric regression includes regression models that combine parametric and nonparametric models. They are often used in situations where the fully nonparametric model may not perform well or when the researcher wants to use a parametric model but the functional form with respect to a subset of the...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniform%20algebra
In functional analysis, a uniform algebra A on a compact Hausdorff topological space X is a closed (with respect to the uniform norm) subalgebra of the C*-algebra C(X) (the continuous complex-valued functions on X) with the following properties: the constant functions are contained in A for every x, y X there is fA w...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Textile%20design
Textile design, also known as textile geometry, is the creative and technical process by which thread or yarn fibers are interlaced to form a piece of cloth or fabric, which is subsequently printed upon, or otherwise adorned. Textile design is further broken down into three major disciplines: printed textile design, wo...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De%20Rham%20curve
In mathematics, a de Rham curve is a certain type of fractal curve named in honor of Georges de Rham. The Cantor function, Cesàro curve, Minkowski's question mark function, the Lévy C curve, the blancmange curve, and Koch curve are all special cases of the general de Rham curve. Construction Consider some complete me...
