C. Kimberling has extensively tabulated and enumerated the properties of triangle centers (Kimberling 1994, 1998, and online),
denoting the th
center in his numbering scheme by
. 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 http://faculty.evansville.edu/ck6/encyclopedia/ETC.html.
In his honor, these centers are called Kimberling centers in this work. Kimberling's
compilation contains 3053 centers as of December 2004. A subset of these is illustrated
above.
The first few Kimberling centers are summarized in the table below with their numbers, names, and trilinears.
