A transformation in which coordinates in two spaces are expressed rationally in terms of those in another.

A bivector, also called a 2-vector, is an antisymmetric tensor of second rank (a.k.a. 2-form). For a bivector X^->, X^->=X_(ab)omega^a ^ omega^b, where ^ is the wedge product ...

For a smooth harmonic map u:M->N, where del is the gradient, Ric is the Ricci curvature tensor, and Riem is the Riemann tensor.

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 ...
