A half-plane is a planar region consisting of all points on one side of an infinite straight line, and no points on the other side. If the points on the line are included, ...

A rotation through 180 degrees (pi radians).

Hansen's problem is a problem in surveying described as follows. From the position of two known but inaccessible points A and B, determine the position of two unknown ...

Harmonic coordinates satisfy the condition Gamma^lambda=g^(munu)Gamma_(munu)^lambda=0, (1) or equivalently, partial/(partialx^kappa)(sqrt(g)g^(lambdakappa))=0. (2) It is ...

Define the zeta function of a variety over a number field by taking the product over all prime ideals of the zeta functions of this variety reduced modulo the primes. Hasse ...

A metric on a bunch of segments with a common endpoint O, which defines the distance between two points P_1 and P_2 as the length of the shortest path connecting them inside ...

H=|aa^'a^('')|a_(x^(n-2))a_(x^(n-2))^'a_(x^(n-2))^('')=0. The nonsingular inflections of a curve are its nonsingular intersections with the Hessian.

Let Gamma be an algebraic curve in a projective space of dimension n, and let p be the prime ideal defining Gamma, and let chi(p,m) be the number of linearly independent ...

Every modular system has a modular system basis consisting of a finite number of polynomials. Stated another way, for every order n there exists a nonsingular curve with the ...

The hippopede, also known as the horse fetter, is a curve given by the polar equation r^2=4b(a-bsin^2theta). Hippopedes are plotted above for values of a/b=0.2 to 2.0.
