https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women%27s%20Super%20League%20records%20and%20statistics
As of end of 2022–23 season. The following is a list of records and statistics of the Women's Super League (WSL) — the highest level of women's football in England — since its inception in 2011. Barring total appearances, all statistics do not include the 2017 FA WSL Spring Series, which bridged the gap between the 2016 and 2017–18 season, featuring only 8 games for each team. Many league record team statistics (such as those related to points, goals, wins and losses) only cover 22 and 14 game seasons, as they have been featured in the league at least more than once. The following lists the season lengths of all seasons of the WSL thus far: 22 game seasons: 2020–21, 2021–22, 2022–23 15-game season: 2019–20 - this season was cut short due to the COVID-19 pandemic 20-game season: 2018–19 18 game seasons: 2017–18 16 game seasons: 2016 14 game seasons: 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015 League Records Titles Most titles: 6, Chelsea (2015, 2017–18, 2019–20, 2020–21, 2021–22, 2022–23) Most consecutive title wins: 4, Chelsea (2019–20, 2020–21, 2021–22, 2022–23) Biggest title-winning margin: 7 points, Arsenal (2018–19) Smallest title-winning margin: 0 points, +2 goal difference (2014); Liverpool (+9) over Chelsea (+7). Both finished on 26 points, but Liverpool won the title on goal difference. Excluding the 2017 FA WSL Spring Series, it is the only time the WSL has been decided on goal difference. Winning a title with most remaining games: 1, Arsenal (2012, 2018–19) Points Most points in a season: In a 22-game season: 58, Chelsea (2022–23) In a 14-game season: 36, Liverpool (2013) Most home points in a season: In a 22-game season: 33, Arsenal (2021–22) and Chelsea (2021–22, 2022–23) In a 14-game season: 19, Arsenal (2012) Most away points in a season: In a 22-game season: 28, Manchester United (2022–23) In a 14-game season: 19, Arsenal (2013) Most points without winning the league: In a 22-game season: 56, Manchester United (2022–23) In a 14-game season: 31, Bristol Academy (2013) Fewest points in a season: In a 22-game season: 11, Birmingham City (2021–22) and Reading (2022–23) In a 14-game season: 4, Everton (2014) Fewest home points in a season: In a 22-game season: 4, Birmingham City (2020–21, 2021–22) In a 14-game season: 3, Everton (2014) Fewest away points in a season: In a 22-game season: 0, Reading (2022–23) In a 14-game season: 1, Everton (2014) Fewest points in a season while winning the league: In a 22-game season: 56, Chelsea (2021–22) In a 14-game season: 26, Liverpool (2014) Most points in a season while being relegated: Performance-based relegation: In a 22-game season: 12, Bristol City (2020–21) In a 14-game season: Bristol Academy (2014) Relegated due to failure to obtain WSL licence: 16, Notts County (2016) — Notts County folded 2 days before the FA WSL Spring Series began.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodolfo%20Guimar%C3%A3es
Rodolfo Ferreira Dias Guimarães (4 January 1866 – 9 July 1918) was a Portuguese army officer and a leading historian of mathematics. Rodolfo Guimarães attained the rank of colonel, and taught at the Army School. Rodolfo Guimarães was born in Porto in 1866, the son of Augusto Dias Guimarães and Teresa Amélia Ferreira Dias, who, by his own account, made a great deal of sacrifice to ensure he had access to good education. He enrolled at the Lisbon Polytechnic School in 1883. Guimarães published his first two papers on mathematics while still a student, in 1885. Early in his research career he published papers on geometry, but from 1900 onward he was mainly concerned with the history of Portuguese mathematics. His seminal work, Les Mathématiques en Portugal au XIXe Siècle, published that year, was a groundbreaking bibliography of Portuguese mathematical works according to the norms of the 1889 International Congress of Bibliography of Mathematical Sciences. Its first edition earned a favourable review from Gustav Eneström. By compiling lists of existing works and reprinting rare papers, Guimarães had an important role in the preservation of mathematical works connected with leading Portuguese mathematicians, chief among them Pedro Nunes whom he considered the most outstanding Portuguese mathematician; Nunes was the subject of a considerable number of papers authored by Guimarães.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convex%20Polytopes
Convex Polytopes is a graduate-level mathematics textbook about convex polytopes, higher-dimensional generalizations of three-dimensional convex polyhedra. It was written by Branko Grünbaum, with contributions from Victor Klee, Micha Perles, and G. C. Shephard, and published in 1967 by John Wiley & Sons. It went out of print in 1970. A second edition, prepared with the assistance of Volker Kaibel, Victor Klee, and Günter M. Ziegler, was published by Springer-Verlag in 2003, as volume 221 of their book series Graduate Texts in Mathematics. Convex Polytopes was the winner of the 2005 Leroy P. Steele Prize for mathematical exposition, given by the American Mathematical Society. The Basic Library List Committee of the Mathematical Association of America has recommended its inclusion in undergraduate mathematics libraries. Topics The book has 19 chapters. After two chapters introducing background material in linear algebra, topology, and convex geometry, two more chapters provide basic definitions of polyhedra, in their two dual versions (intersections of half-spaces and convex hulls of finite point sets), introduce Schlegel diagrams, and provide some basic examples including the cyclic polytopes. Chapter 5 introduces Gale diagrams, and the next two chapters use them to study polytopes with a number of vertices only slightly higher than their dimension, and neighborly polytopes. Chapters 8 through 11 study the numbers of faces of different dimensions in polytopes through Euler's polyhedral formula, the Dehn–Sommerville equations, and the extremal combinatorics of numbers of faces in polytopes. Chapter 11 connects the low-dimensional faces together into the skeleton of a polytope, and proves the van Kampen–Flores theorem about non-embeddability of skeletons into lower-dimensional spaces. Chapter 12 studies the question of when a skeleton uniquely determines the higher-dimensional combinatorial structure of its polytope. Chapter 13 provides a complete answer to this theorem for three-dimensional convex polytopes via Steinitz's theorem, which characterizes the graphs of convex polyhedra combinatorially and can be used to show that they can only be realized as a convex polyhedron in one way. It also touches on the multisets of face sizes that can be realized as polyhedra (Eberhard's theorem) and on the combinatorial types of polyhedra that can have inscribed spheres or circumscribed spheres. Chapter 14 concerns relations analogous to the Dehn–Sommerville equations for sums of angles of polytopes, and uses sums of angles to define a central point, the "Steiner point", for any polytope. Chapter 15 studies Minkowski addition and Blaschke addition, two operations by which polytopes can be combined to produce other polytopes. Chapters 16 and 17 study shortest paths and the Hirsch conjecture, longest paths and Hamiltonian cycles, and the shortness exponent of polytopes. Chapter 18 studies arrangements of hyperplanes and their dual relation to the combinator

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statactivism
The French movement of statactivism advocates for the mobilization of statistics in support to social movements and agendas. Content The program of French statactivistts is to ‘fight against’ as well as ‘fight with’ numbers, using a variety of possible strategies: ‘Statistical judo’. This is a strategy of self-defence, whereby existing measures are ‘gamed’ as prescribed by the Goodhart's law; Denouncing the inadequacy or bias or unfairness of existing indicators and measures, e.g. from official statistics of poverty or inequality; Developing alternative indicators to substitute for those above; Identifying social contexts and problems which are invisible to existing statistics Statactivism's intellectually belongs to the tradition of sociology of numbers. Following Alain Desrosières and Theodore Porter, statactivists use statistics as a “tool of weakness”, which offer to the weak members of society the opportunity to act against their oppression by making injustice visible.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minkowski%20problem%20for%20polytopes
In the geometry of convex polytopes, the Minkowski problem for polytopes concerns the specification of the shape of a polytope by the directions and measures of its facets. The theorem that every polytope is uniquely determined up to translation by this information was proven by Hermann Minkowski; it has been called "Minkowski's theorem", although the same name has also been given to several unrelated results of Minkowski. The Minkowski problem for polytopes should also be distinguished from the Minkowski problem, on specifying convex shapes by their curvature. Specification and necessary conditions For any -dimensional polytope, one can specify its collection of facet directions and measures by a finite set of -dimensional nonzero vectors, one per facet, pointing perpendicularly outward from the facet, with length equal to the -dimensional measure of its facet. To be a valid specification of a bounded polytope, these vectors must span the full -dimensional space, and no two can be parallel with the same sign. Additionally, their sum must be zero; this requirement corresponds to the observation that, when the polytope is projected perpendicularly onto any hyperplane, the projected measure of its top facets and its bottom facets must be equal, because the top facets project to the same set as the bottom facets. Minkowski's uniqueness theorem It is a theorem of Hermann Minkowski that these necessary conditions are sufficient: every finite set of vectors that spans the whole space, has no two parallel with the same sign, and sums to zero describes the facet directions and measures of a polytope. More, the shape of this polytope is uniquely determined by this information: every two polytopes that give rise to the same set of vectors are translations of each other. Blaschke sums The sets of vectors representing two polytopes can be added by taking the union of the two sets and, when the two sets contain parallel vectors with the same sign, replacing them by their sum. The resulting operation on polytope shapes is called the Blaschke sum. It can be used to decompose arbitrary polytopes into simplices, and centrally symmetric polytopes into parallelotopes. Generalizations With certain additional information (including separating the facet direction and size into a unit vector and a real number, which may be negative, providing an additional bit of information per facet) it is possible to generalize these existence and uniqueness results to certain classes of non-convex polyhedra. It is also possible to specify three-dimensional polyhedra uniquely by the direction and perimeter of their facets. Minkowski's theorem and the uniqueness of this specification by direction and perimeter have a common generalization: whenever two three-dimensional convex polyhedra have the property that their facets have the same directions and no facet of one polyhedron can be translated into a proper subset of the facet with the same direction of the other polyhedron, t
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blaschke%20sum
In convex geometry and the geometry of convex polytopes, the Blaschke sum of two polytopes is a polytope that has a facet parallel to each facet of the two given polytopes, with the same measure. When both polytopes have parallel facets, the measure of the corresponding facet in the Blaschke sum is the sum of the measures from the two given polytopes. Blaschke sums exist and are unique up to translation, as can be proven using the theory of the Minkowski problem for polytopes. They can be used to decompose arbitrary polytopes into simplices, and centrally symmetric polytopes into parallelotopes. Although Blaschke sums of polytopes are used implicitly in the work of Hermann Minkowski, Blaschke sums are named for Wilhelm Blaschke, who defined a corresponding operation for smooth convex sets. The Blaschke sum operation can be extended to arbitrary convex bodies, generalizing both the polytope and smooth cases, using measures on the Gauss map. Definition For any -dimensional polytope, one can specify its collection of facet directions and measures by a finite set of -dimensional nonzero vectors, one per facet, pointing perpendicularly outward from the facet, with length equal to the -dimensional measure of its facet. As Hermann Minkowski proved, a finite set of nonzero vectors describes a polytope in this way if and only if it spans the whole -dimensional space, no two are collinear with the same sign, and the sum of the set is the zero vector. The polytope described by this set has a unique shape, in the sense that any two polytopes described by the same set of vectors are translates of each other. The Blaschke sum of two polytopes and is defined by combining the vectors describing their facet directions and measures, in the obvious way: form the union of the two sets of vectors, except that when both sets contain vectors that are parallel and have the same sign, replace each such pair of parallel vectors by its sum. This operation preserves the necessary conditions for Minkowski's theorem on the existence of a polytope described by the resulting set of vectors, and this polytope is the Blaschke sum. The two polytopes need not have the same dimension as each other, as long as they are both defined in a common space of high enough dimension to contain both: lower-dimensional polytopes in a higher-dimensional space are defined in the same way by sets of vectors that span a lower-dimensional subspace of the higher-dimensional space, and these sets of vectors can be combined without regard to the dimensions of the spaces they span. For convex polygons and line segments in the Euclidean plane, their Blaschke sum coincides with their Minkowski sum. Decomposition Blaschke sums can be used to decompose polytopes into simpler polytopes. In particular, every -dimensional convex polytope with facets can be represented as a Blaschke sum of at most simplices (not necessarily of the same dimension). Every -dimensional centrally symmetric convex polytop

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eberhard%27s%20theorem
In mathematics, and more particularly in polyhedral combinatorics, Eberhard's theorem partially characterizes the multisets of polygons that can form the faces of simple convex polyhedra. It states that, for given numbers of triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons, heptagons, and other polygons other than hexagons, there exists a convex polyhedron with those given numbers of faces of each type (and an unspecified number of hexagonal faces) if and only if those numbers of polygons obey a linear equation derived from Euler's polyhedral formula. The theorem is named after Victor Eberhard, a blind German mathematician, who published it in 1888 in his habilitation thesis and in expanded form in an 1891 book on polyhedra. Definitions and statement For an arbitrary convex polyhedron, one can define numbers , , , etc., where counts the faces of the polyhedron that have exactly sides. A three-dimensional convex polyhedron is defined to be simple when every vertex of the polyhedron is incident to exactly three edges. In a simple polygon, every vertex is incident to three angles of faces, and every edge is incident to two sides of faces. Since the numbers of angles and sides of the faces are given, one can calculate the three numbers (the total number of vertices), (the total number of edges), and (the total number of faces), by summing over all faces and multiplying by an appropriate factor: and Plugging these values into Euler's polyhedral formula and clearing denominators leads to the equation which must be satisfied by the face counts of every simple polyhedron. However, this equation is not affected by the value of (as its multiplier is zero), and, for some choices of the other face counts, changing can change whether or not a polyhedron with those face counts exists. That is, obeying this equation on the face counts is a necessary condition for the existence of a polyhedron, but not a sufficient condition, and a complete characterization of which face counts are realizable would need to take into account the value of . Eberhard's theorem implies that the equation above is the only necessary condition that does not depend on . It states that, if an assignment of numbers to (omitting ) obeys the equation then there exists a value of and a simple convex polyhedron with exactly -sided faces for all . Examples There are three simple Platonic solids, the tetrahedron, cube, and dodecahedron. The tetrahedron has , the cube has , and the dodecahedron has , with all other values of being zero. These three assignments of numbers to all obey the equation that Eberhard's theorem requires them to obey. The existence of these polyhedra shows that, for these three assignments of numbers to , there exists a polyhedron with . The case of the dodecahedron, with and all others except zero, describes more generally the fullerenes. There is no fullerene with but these graphs are realizable for any other value of ; see for instance, the 26-fullerene gr

Coinage of the term 'ridge function' is often attributed to B.F. Logan and L.A. Shepp. Relevance A ridge function is not susceptible to the curse of dimensionality, making it an instrumental tool in various estimation problems. This is a direct result of the fact that ridge functions are constant in directions: Let be independent vectors that are orthogonal to , such that these vectors span dimensions. Then for all . In other words, any shift of in a direction perpendicular to does not change the value of . Ridge functions play an essential role in amongst others projection pursuit, generalized linear models, and as activation functions in neural networks. For a survey on ridge functions, see.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand%20Bois%2C%20Mauritius
Grand Bois is a village located in the Savanne District of Mauritius. According to the Statistics Mauritius census in 2015, the population was 7,982. History Grand Bois village was formerly known as Bois Le Grand after Mr. Le Grand who owned most of the land in this region and also because there were dense forests nearby. Slowly people started calling the locality as " Le Grand Bois " and finally "Grand Bois". A street opposite the village's primary school still bears the name Le Grand Branch Road. Localities The localities of Kanaka, Mexico and Camp Bananes form part of the Grand Bois Village area. It is also surrounded by other villages which form part of Savanne District such as La Flora in the north and Bois Chéri in the west which are well known for tea plantations. On the east of Grand Bois there is the village of Rivière Du Poste and further south the village of Britannia is located. Tourist attractions Trou Kanaka is an extinct volcanic crater which is found north-west from the village of Grand Bois and is considered a tourist attraction. Grand Bassin is an extinct volcano which is found 8 kilometres in the west of Grand Bois. Schools Grand Bois Gouvernment School is a primary school which is located along the main road of the village. Originally this was a Roman Catholic school housed within a chapel. Children from the surrounding villages of Grand Bois, Bois Cheri and La Flora used to attend this school. In 1945 the old chapel was destroyed by a tropical cyclone. It was subsequently rebuilt by volunteers, students and it received the support of the Catholic church. The first headteacher was Mr. Précieux who was later succeeded by Patrick Angseesing.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De%20quinque%20corporibus%20regularibus
De quinque corporibus regularibus (sometimes called Libellus de quinque corporibus regularibus) is a book on the geometry of polyhedra written in the 1480s or early 1490s by Italian painter and mathematician Piero della Francesca. It is a manuscript, in the Latin language; its title means [the little book] on the five regular solids. It is one of three books known to have been written by della Francesca. Along with the Platonic solids, De quinque corporibus regularibus includes descriptions of five of the thirteen Archimedean solids, and of several other irregular polyhedra coming from architectural applications. It was the first of what would become many books connecting mathematics to art through the construction and perspective drawing of polyhedra, including Luca Pacioli's 1509 Divina proportione (which incorporated without credit an Italian translation of della Francesca's work). Lost for many years, De quinque corporibus regularibus was rediscovered in the 19th century in the Vatican Library and the Vatican copy has since been republished in facsimile. Background The five Platonic solids (the regular tetrahedron, cube, octahedron, dodecahedron, and icosahedron) were known to della Francesca through two classical sources: Timaeus, in which Plato theorizes that four of them correspond to the classical elements making up the world (with the fifth, the dodecahedron, corresponding to the heavens), and the Elements of Euclid, in which the Platonic solids are constructed as mathematical objects. Two apocryphal books of the Elements concerning the metric properties of the Platonic solids, sometimes called pseudo-Euclid, were also commonly considered to be part of the Elements in the time of della Francesca. It is the material from the Elements and pseudo-Euclid, rather than from Timaeus, that forms della Francesca's main inspiration. The thirteen Archimedean solids, convex polyhedra in which the vertices but not the faces are symmetric to each other, were classified by Archimedes in a book that has long been lost. Archimedes' classification was later briefly described by Pappus of Alexandria in terms of how many faces of each kind these polyhedra have. Della Francesca had previously studied and copied the works of Archimedes, and includes citations to Archimedes in De quinque corporibus regularibus. But although he describes six of the Archimedean solids in his books (five in De quinque corporibus regularibus), this appears to be an independent rediscovery; he does not credit Archimedes for these shapes and there is no evidence that he knew of Archimedes' work on them. Similarly, although both Archimedes and Della Francesca found formulas for the volume of a cloister vault (see below), their work on this appears to be independent, as Archimedes' volume formula remained unknown until the early 20th century. De quinque corporibus regularibus is one of three books known to have been written by della Francesca. The other two, De prospectiva pinge

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polycon
In geometry, a polycon is a kind of a developable roller. It is made of identical pieces of a cone whose apex angle equals the angle of an even sided regular polygon. In principle, there are infinitely many polycons, as many as there are even sided regular polygons. Most members of the family have elongated spindle like shapes. The polycon family generalizes the sphericon. It was discovered by the Israeli inventor David Hirsch in 2017 Construction Two adjacent edges of an even sided regular polygon are extended till they reach the polygon's axis of symmetry that is furthest from the edges' common vertex. By rotating the two resulting line segments around the polygon's axis of symmetry that passes through the common vertex, a right circular cone is created. Two planes are passed such that each one of them contains the normal to the polygon at its center point and one of the two distanced vertices of the two edges. The cone part that lies between the two planes is replicated times, where is the number of the polygon's edges. All parts are joined at their planer surfaces to create a spindle shaped object. It has curved edges which pass through alternating vertices of the polygon. The obtained object is cut in half at its plane of symmetry (the polygon's plane). The two identical halves are reunited after being rotated at an offset angle of Edges and vertices A polycon based on a regular polygon with edges has vertices, of which coincide with the polygon's vertices, with the remaining two lying at the extreme ends of the solid. It has edges, each one being half of the conic section created where the cone's surface intersects one of the two cutting planes. On each side of the polygonal cross-section, edges of the polycon run (from every second vertex of the polygon) to one of the solid's extreme ends. The edges on one side are offset by an angle of from those on the other side. The edges of the sphericon () are circular. The edges of the hexacon () are parabolic. All other polycons' edges are hyperbolic. The sphericon as a polycon The sphericon is the first member of the polycon family. It is also a member of the poly-sphericon and the convex hull of the two disc roller (TDR convex hull) families. In each of the families, it is constructed differently. As a poly-sphericon, it is constructed by cutting a bicone with an apex angle of at its plane of symmetry and reuniting the two obtained parts after rotating them at an offset angel of . As a TDR convex hull it is the convex hull of two perpendicular 180° circular sectors joined at their centers. As a polycon, the starting point is a cone created by rotating two adjacent edges of a square around its axis of symmetry that passes through their common vertex. In this specific case there is no need to extend the edges because their ends reach the square's other axis of symmetry. Since, in this specific case, the two cutting planes coincide with the plane of the cone's base, nothing i

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christine%20Proust
Christine Proust (born 1953) is a French historian of mathematics and Assyriologist known for her research on Babylonian mathematics. She is a senior researcher at the SPHERE joint team of CNRS and Paris Diderot University, where she and Agathe Keller (who studies mathematical Sanskrit texts) are co-directors of the SAW project (Mathematical Sciences in the Ancient World) headed by Karine Chemla (an expert in ancient Chinese mathematics). Education and career Following a two-decade long career as a secondary mathematics teacher, including an agrégation in Mathematics in 1992, Proust studied epistemology and history of science at Paris Diderot University, earning a diplôme d'études approfondies in 1999 and a doctorate in 2004, supervised by . She completed a habilitation at Paris Diderot in 2010, and became a director of research in the SPHERE laboratory in 2011. Proust was a member of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton during 2009, a visiting scholar at the Institute for the Study of the Ancient World at New York University during 2010, and a resident at the Institut Méditerranéen de Recherches Avancées in Marseille during 2010–2011. Scholarship In her thesis work, Proust edited and analyzed two long-neglected collections of Old Babylonian mathematical tablets that constitute part of the vast trove of artifacts excavated at Nippur by John Punnett Peters, John Henry Haynes and Hermann Hilprecht in the late 1800s. This work resulted in the publication of two books, 'Tablettes mathématiques de Nippur' and 'Tablettes mathématiques de la collection Hilprecht'. The first is an edition of the tablets housed at the Museum of the Ancient Orient in Istanbul and an improved reconstruction of the curriculum for elementary scribal education in mathematics at Old Babylonian Nippur, the second an edition of the tablets housed in the Hilprecht Collection at the University of Jena. (Other Nippur tablets at the University of Pennsylvania and had been previously studied by Eleanor Robson.) Proust's work produced the most detailed reconstruction of the process of elementary scribal education at Old Babylonian Nippur, including the curriculum and timelines, the interaction of education in Sumerian language and mathematics (Sumerian was a foreign language to the Akkadian speakers of the Old Babylonian era), and the interaction between metrological calculation and abstract calculation using sexagesimal place-value notation. With Alexander Jones she curated the exhibit Before Pythagoras: The Culture of Old Babylonian Mathematics (2010–2011) at the Institute for the Study of the Ancient World (ISAW) in New York in which a number of mathematically important clay tablets, including YBC 7289 and Plimpton 322 were on display.
