Every continuous map f:S^n->R^n must identify a pair of antipodal points.

The quartic with implicit equation x^4=x^2y-y^3. (1) The bow has vertical tangents at (+/-2/9sqrt(3),2/9) and horizontal tangents at (+/-1/4sqrt(2),1/4). Its curvature is ...

Let A_1, B_2, C_1, A_2, and B_1 be five points determining a conic. Then the conic is the locus of the point C_2=A_1(L·C_1A_2)·B_1(L·C_1B_2), where L is a line through the ...

An algebraic variety over a field K that becomes isomorphic to a projective space.

If the total group of the canonical series is divided into two parts, the difference between the number of points in each part and the double of the dimension of the complete ...

A quartic curve with implicit equation (a^2)/(x^2)-(b^2)/(y^2)=1 (1) or a^2y^2-b^2x^2=x^2y^2 (2) and a,b>0. In parametric form, x = +/-acost (3) y = bcott. (4) The curvature ...

A set of planes sharing a point in common. For planes specified in Hessian normal form, a bundle of planes can therefore be specified as ...

The "cannabis" curve is the name given here to the polar curve whose shape resembles that of a cannabis leaf. The cannabis curve encloses an area A=(27619209)/(16000000)pia^2.

A quartic curve that resembles the symbol for the zodiacal sign Capricorn given by the implicit equation a^2x^2(x^2+y^2)-b(ay-x^2-y^2)^2=0, where a>0, b>a^2. The curve ...

A capsule is a term coined here for a stadium of revolution, i.e., a cylinder with two hemispherical caps on either end. The capsule is implemented in the Wolfram Language as ...
