The plane through an edge of a trihedron drawn perpendicularly to the opposite face. The term was first used by J. Neuberg (Altshiller-Court 1979, p. 298).

A plane partition is a two-dimensional array of integers n_(i,j) that are nonincreasing both from left to right and top to bottom and that add up to a given number n. In ...

Virtually nothing is known about dissection of a projective plane using unequal squares.

A space-filling function which maps a one-dimensional interval into a two-dimensional area. Plane-filling functions were thought to be impossible until Hilbert discovered the ...

The extended complex plane is the name given to the complex plane with a point at infinity attached: C union {infty^~}, where infty^~ denotes complex infinity. It is also ...

The Euclidean plane parametrized by coordinates, so that each point is located based on its position with respect to two perpendicular lines, called coordinate axes. They are ...

Given a plane ax+by+cz+d=0 (1) and a point x_0=(x_0,y_0,z_0), the normal vector to the plane is given by v=[a; b; c], (2) and a vector from the plane to the point is given by ...

A conformal mapping from the upper half-plane to a polygon.

The real projective plane is the closed topological manifold, denoted RP^2, that is obtained by projecting the points of a plane E from a fixed point P (not on the plane), ...

Consider n intersecting ellipses. The maximal number of regions into which these divide the plane are N(n)=2n^2-2n+2=2(n^2-n+1), giving values for n=1, 2, ... of 2, 6, 14, ...
