Degenerate conic — Main article: Conic section In mathematics, a degenerate conic is a conic (degree 2 plane curve, the zeros of a degree 2 polynomial equation, a quadratic) that fails to be an irreducible curve. This can happen in two ways: either it is a… … Wikipedia
Affine focal set — In mathematics, and especially affine differential geometry, the affine focal set of a smooth submanifold M embedded in a smooth manifold N is the caustic generated by the affine normal lines. It can be realised as the bifurcation set of a… … Wikipedia
Five Points, Manhattan — Five Points intersection painted by George Catlin in 1827; the triangular building in the center is located on what would be known as Paradise Square , Anthony Street veers off on right, Cross Street on the left and Orange Street runs left to… … Wikipedia
Ellipse — Elliptical redirects here. For the exercise machine, see Elliptical trainer. This article is about the geometric figure. For other uses, see Ellipse (disambiguation). Not to be confused with ellipsis. An ellipse obtained as the intersection of a… … Wikipedia
General position — In algebraic geometry, general position in a notion of genericity for a set of points, or other geometric objects. It means the general case situation, as opposed to some more special or coincidental cases that are possible. Its precise meaning… … Wikipedia
Projective plane — See real projective plane and complex projective plane, for the cases met as manifolds of respective dimension 2 and 4 In mathematics, a projective plane has two possible definitions, one of them coming from linear algebra, and another (which is… … Wikipedia
Singular value decomposition — Visualization of the SVD of a 2 dimensional, real shearing matrix M. First, we see the unit disc in blue together with the two canonical unit vectors. We then see the action of M, which distorts the disk to an ellipse. The SVD decomposes M into… … Wikipedia
Convex hull algorithms — Algorithms that construct convex hulls of various objects have a broad range of applications in mathematics and computer science, see Convex hull applications . In computational geometry, numerous algorithms are proposed for computing the convex… … Wikipedia
Charts on SO(3) — In mathematics, the special orthogonal group in three dimensions, otherwise known as the rotation group SO(3), is a naturally occurring example of a manifold. The various charts on SO(3) set up rival coordinate systems: in this case there cannot… … Wikipedia
Lie sphere geometry — is a geometrical theory of planar or spatial geometry in which the fundamental concept is the circle or sphere. It was introduced by Sophus Lie in the nineteenth century. [The definitive modern textbook on Lie sphere geometry is Harvnb|Cecil|1992 … Wikipedia
3-sphere — Stereographic projection of the hypersphere s parallels (red), meridians (blue) and hypermeridians (green). Because this projection is conformal, the curves intersect each other orthogonally (in the yellow points) as in 4D. All curves are circles … Wikipedia
