Mathematicians used “magic functions” to prove that two highly symmetric lattices solve a myriad of problems in eight- and 24-dimensional space. The points could be an infinite collection of electrons ...
The Handbook of Mathematical Functions by Milton Abramovich and Irene Stegun is the one book I would wish to have on a desert island. Unlike a novel, it withstands infinities of rereadings. Its ...
THE object of the authors of this volume of mathematical tables is “to supply a comprehensive set of tables of the numerical values of the elementary functions which are in constant use in mathematics ...
