Kimberling Center


KimberlingCenters

The name "Kimberling center" is used in this work in honor of C. Kimberling for the triangle centers whose properties he has extensively tabulated and enumerated (Kimberling 1994, 1998, and online), denoting the nth center in his numbering scheme by X_n. 101 (plus 13 additional) centers appeared in Kimberling (1994), 360 in Kimberling (1998), and the remainder appear in a list maintained online by Kimberling at https://faculty.evansville.edu/ck6/encyclopedia/ETC.html. As of Oct. 29, 2026, Kimberling's compilation extends through X_(73268). A subset of these is illustrated above.

The first few Kimberling centers are summarized in the table below with their numbers, names, and trilinears.
