In other words, for all d > 2, Y d contains all primes p such that p(p − 1) divides d. Brown (1978) gave an explicit but very large bound for the exceptional set of primes p. If the degree d is 1, 2, or 3 the exceptional set is empty.
The Platonic solids, seen here in an illustration from Johannes Kepler's Mysterium Cosmographicum (1596), are an early example of exceptional objects. The symmetries of three-dimensional space can be classified into two infinite families—the cyclic and dihedral symmetries of n-sided polygons—and five exceptional types of symmetry, namely the symmetry groups of the Platonic solids.
Savant syndrome (/ ˈ s æ v ə n t, s æ ˈ v ɑː n t / SAV-ənt, sə-VAHNT, US also / s ə ˈ v ɑː n t / sav-AHNT) is a phenomenon where someone demonstrates exceptional aptitude in one domain, such as art or mathematics, despite significant social or intellectual impairment.
