Given a vector space V, its projectivization P(V), sometimes written P(V-0), is the set of equivalence classes x∼lambdax for any lambda!=0 in V-0. For example, complex ...

A quadric is a quadratic surface. A surface of the form (x^2)/(a^2+theta)+(y^2)/(b^2+theta)+(z^2)/(c^2+theta)=1 is also called a quadric, and theta is said to be the ...

A point where a curve intersects itself along four arcs. The above plot shows the quadruple point at the origin of the quadrifolium (x^2+y^2)^3-4x^2y^2=0.

A quantified system of real algebraic equations and inequalities in variables {x_1,...,x_n} is an expression QS=Q_1(y_1)Q_2(y_2)...Q_m(y_m)S(x_1,...,x_n;y_1,...,y_m), where Q ...

A quintic curve is an algebraic curve of order five. Examples of quintic curves include the Burnside curve, butterfly catastrophe curve, and stirrup curve.

A type of cusp as illustrated above for the curve x^4+x^2y^2-2x^2y-xy^2+y^2=0.

An algebraic surface of degree 7. The Labs septic is an example of a septic surface.

An algebraic curve of degree six. Examples include the astroid, atriphtaloid, Cayley's sextic, cornoid, cycloid of Ceva, dumbbell curve, ellipse evolute, epicycloid, Freeth's ...

The set St^_v-Stv, where St^_v is a closed star and Stv is a star, is called the link of v in a simplicial complex K and is denoted Lkv (Munkres 1993, p. 11).

Let f:K^((0))->L^((0)) be a bijective correspondence such that the vertices v_0, ..., v_n of K span a simplex of K iff f(v_0), ..., f(v_n) span a simplex of L. Then the ...
