Not to be confused with Ball bearing. Bearing balls are special highly spherical and smooth balls, most commonly used in ball bearings, but also used as components in things like freewheel mechanisms. The balls come in many different grades.
Euler Prime. Let a prime number generated by Euler's prime-generating polynomial be known as an Euler prime. Then the first few Euler primes occur for , 2, ..., 39, 42, 43, 45, ... (OEIS A056561), corresponding to the primes 43, 47, 53, 61, 71, 83, 97, 113, 131, 151, 173, ... (OEIS A005846).
The Euler Number. There is another approach to identify the configuration space of N-arms machine, this approach uses less construction techniques and relies on a certain property of surfaces: the Euler Number. First, lets look at another property of surfaces.
