The Hermite constant is defined for dimension n as the value gamma_n=(sup_(f)min_(x_i)f(x_1,x_2,...,x_n))/([discriminant(f)]^(1/n)) (1) (Le Lionnais 1983). In other words, ...

A Hermitian metric on a complex vector bundle assigns a Hermitian inner product to every fiber bundle. The basic example is the trivial bundle pi:U×C^k->U, where U is an open ...

A hexagon is a six-sided polygon. Several special types of hexagons are illustrated above. In particular, a hexagon with vertices equally spaced around a circle and with all ...

A geometric theorem related to the pentagram and also called the Pratt-kasapi theorem. It states ...

Let a chord of constant length be slid around a smooth, closed, convex curve C, and choose a point on the chord which divides it into segments of lengths p and q. This point ...

Homogeneous coordinates (x_1,x_2,x_3) of a finite point (x,y) in the plane are any three numbers for which (x_1)/(x_3)=x (1) (x_2)/(x_3)=y. (2) Coordinates (x_1,x_2,0) for ...

In the hyperbolic plane H^2, a pair of lines can be parallel (diverging from one another in one direction and intersecting at an ideal point at infinity in the other), can ...

Let P=p:q:r and U=u:v:w be points in trilinear coordinates, neither of which is on a side line of a reference triangle DeltaABC. Them the P-isoconjugate of U is the point ...

The isogonal mittenpunkt M^' is the isogonal conjugate of the mittenpunkt. It is the homothetic center of the excentral and contact triangles (Gallatly 1913, pp. 17-18). It ...

A metric space X is isometric to a metric space Y if there is a bijection f between X and Y that preserves distances. That is, d(a,b)=d(f(a),f(b)). In the context of ...
