How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T13909169 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

A.
Szekeres–Lindström theorem
The Szekeres–Lindström theorem is a result in combinatorics that characterizes the maximum size of intersecting families of subsets, serving as a precursor to and special case of the Erdős–Ko–Rado theorem.
-

Legendre’s formula for valuations of factorials
Legendre’s formula for valuations of factorials is a number-theoretic result that expresses the exponent of a prime in the prime factorization of n! as a sum of integer divisions of n by successive powers of that prime.
-
C.
Thompson's algorithm
Thompson's algorithm is a classic computer science method for converting regular expressions into nondeterministic finite automata (NFAs), widely used in pattern matching and lexical analysis.
-
D.
Sylvester’s theorem on partitions
Sylvester’s theorem on partitions is a result in number theory that provides a systematic way to count integer partitions subject to certain congruence or restriction conditions, forming part of the foundational work in partition theory.
-
E.
Hardy–Ramanujan asymptotic formula
The Hardy–Ramanujan asymptotic formula is a landmark result in number theory that gives an approximate expression for the partition function p(n), describing how the number of integer partitions of n grows rapidly with n.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
