A cylindrical projection of points on a unit sphere centered at O consists of extending the line OS for each point S until it intersects a cylinder tangent to the sphere at ...

The contact angle between a sphere and a tangent plane is the angle alpha between the normal to the sphere at the point of tangency and the basal plane with respect to which ...

The map which takes points on the surface of a sphere S^2 to their antipodal points.

Cut a sphere by a plane in such a way that the volumes of the spherical segments have a given ratio.

The problem of deciding if four colors are sufficient to color any map on a plane or sphere.

If a sphere is covered by three closed sets, then one of them must contain a pair of antipodal points.

Spherical triangles into which a sphere is divided by the planes of symmetry of a uniform polyhedron.

A curve on the unit sphere S^2 is an eversion if it has no corners or cusps (but it may be self-intersecting). These properties are guaranteed by requiring that the curve's ...

The midsphere, also called the intersphere, reciprocating sphere, or inversion sphere, is a sphere with respect to which the polyhedron vertices of a polyhedron are the ...

The distance from the center of a circle to its perimeter, or from the center of a sphere to its surface. The radius is equal to half the diameter.
