• Hilbert's theorem (differential geometry) — In differential geometry, Hilbert s theorem (1901) states that there exists no complete regular surface S of constant negative Gaussian curvature K immersed in mathbb{R}^{3}. This theorem answers the question for the negative case of which… …   Wikipedia

• Gauss's lemma (Riemannian geometry) — In Riemannian geometry, Gauss s lemma asserts that any sufficiently small sphere centered at a point in a Riemannian manifold is perpendicular to every geodesic through the point. More formally, let M be a Riemannian manifold, equipped with its… …   Wikipedia

• List of nonlinear partial differential equations — In mathematics and physics, nonlinear partial differential equations are (as their name suggests) partial differential equations with nonlinear terms. They describe many different physical systems, ranging from gravitation to fluid dynamics, and… …   Wikipedia

• Dowling geometry — In combinatorial mathematics, a Dowling geometry, named after Thomas A. Dowling, is a matroid associated with a group. There is a Dowling geometry of each rank for each group. If the rank is at least 3, the Dowling geometry uniquely determines… …   Wikipedia
