For centuries, the Pythagorean Theorem has occupied a unique position in mathematics: both elementary and profound. Its ...

We review some results and open problems for harmonic measure. Their common element is their simple geometric character. Such classical results are the projection estimates of Beurling, Nevanlinna and ...

THIS is an interesting contribution to the subject treated of by Riemann, Helmholtz, and others, and in this country by Prof. Clifford. The question is considered from the standpoint of elementary ...
