cp's OEIS Frontend

This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

Diameter of a sphere with volume Pi. - Omar E. Pol, Aug 09 2012
Also the height h that minimizes the total surface area (including the base) of a square pyramid of unit volume: at h = 6^(1/3), the surface area reaches its minimum value, 12*6^(-1/3) = 12/h. The ratio of its height to the length of one of its sides is h/sqrt(3/h) = sqrt(2), and the slope of its four triangular faces is arctan(sqrt(8)) = 70.528779... degrees (cf. A137914). (For the height that minimizes the total surface area of just the four triangular faces of a square pyramid of unit volume -- i.e., excluding the base -- see A319034.) - Jon E. Schoenfield, Nov 10 2018

This number is the reciprocal of A319034.
The other (complex) roots are, with the present number r = (2/3)^(1/3), r*w = -0.4367902323... + 0.7565428747...*i, and its conjugate, where w = exp(2*Pi*i/3) = (-1 + sqrt(3)*i)/2 is one of the complex roots of x^3 - 1.
