Abstract
IN the present volume we have about thirty communications made by eighteen writers. Prof. Cayley writes on Three-bar Motion (treating the matter in a different way from that in which it is handled in this same volume by Mr. S. Roberts, the priority of whose results is conceded by Mr. Cayley) on the Bicursal Sextic; Prof. H. J. S. Smith contributes short papers on the value of a certain Arithmetical Determinant and a Note on the Theory of the Pellian Equation; Lord Rayleigh has a note on the Approximate Solution of certain Potential Problems; Mr. Spottiswoode writes on Determinants of Alternate Numbers, working out some suggestions of Prof. Clifford. This last-named gentleman contributes the transformation of Elliptic Functions with a Note, and Free Motion under no Forces of a Rigid System in an n-fold Homaloid.
