The diagonal slash "/" used as the bar between numerator and denominator of an in-line fraction (Bringhurst 1997, p. 284). The solidus is also called a diagonal. Special care ...

A path gamma is a continuous mapping gamma:[a,b]|->C^0, where gamma(a) is the initial point, gamma(b) is the final point, and C^0 denotes the space of continuous functions. ...

The Laplacian spectral ratio R_L(G) of a connected graph G is defined as the ratio of its Laplacian spectral radius to its algebraic connectivity. If a connected graph of ...

An asymptote is a line or curve that approaches a given curve arbitrarily closely, as illustrated in the above diagram. The plot above shows 1/x, which has a vertical ...

Delta_hf(x)=(f(x+h)-f(x))/h=(Deltaf)/h. It gives the slope of the secant line passing through f(x) and f(x+h). In the limit h->0, the difference quotient becomes the partial ...

The H-fractal is a fractal constructed by starting with the line segments corresponding to a capital letter H, then iteratively placing smaller H's centered at the top and ...

Given three circles, each intersecting the other two in two points, the line segments connecting their points of intersection satisfy (ace)/(bdf)=1 (Honsberger 1995).

The plane through the midpoint of a line segment and perpendicular to that segment, also called a mediating plane. The term "mediator" was introduced by J. Neuberg ...

A transformation characterized by an invariant line and a scale factor (one-way stretch) or two invariant lines and corresponding scale factors (two-way stretch).

A polygon can be defined (as illustrated above) as a geometric object "consisting of a number of points (called vertices) and an equal number of line segments (called sides), ...
