A generalized eigenvector for an n×n matrix A is a vector v for which (A-lambdaI)^kv=0 for some positive integer k in Z^+. Here, I denotes the n×n identity matrix. The ...

A ruled surface is called a generalized cone if it can be parameterized by x(u,v)=p+vy(u), where p is a fixed point which can be regarded as the vertex of the cone. A ...

A ruled surface is called a generalized cylinder if it can be parameterized by x(u,v)=vp+y(u), where p is a fixed point. A generalized cylinder is a regular surface wherever ...

The geodesics on a general cylinder generated by lines parallel to a line l with which the tangent makes a constant angle.

The class of all regular sequences of particularly well-behaved functions equivalent to a given regular sequence. A distribution is sometimes also called a "generalized ...

The surface generated by a twisted curve C when rotated about a fixed axis A and, at the same time, displaced parallel to A so that the velocity of displacement is always ...

A line segment on the boundary of a face, also called a side.

The breaking up of self-intersecting polygons into simple polygons (illustrated above) is also called tessellation (Woo et al. 1999).

A distribution of values of a discrete variate represented graphically by plotting points (x_1,f_1), (x_2,f_2), ..., (x_k,f_k), and drawing a set of straight line segments ...

A generalized Vandermonde matrix of two sequences a and b where a is an increasing sequence of positive integers and b is an increasing sequence of nonnegative integers of ...
