The catacaustic of a logarithmic spiral, where the origin is taken as the radiant point, is another logarithmic spiral. For an original spiral with parametric equations x = ...

For a logarithmic spiral with parametric equations x = e^(bt)cost (1) y = e^(bt)sint, (2) the involute is given by x = (e^(bt)sint)/b (3) y = -(e^(bt)cost)/b, (4) which is ...

A robust estimation based on maximum likelihood arguments.

Three circles packed inside a triangle such that each is tangent to the other two and to two sides of the triangle are known as Malfatti circles. The Malfatti configuration ...

A surface given by the parametric equations x(u,v) = u (1) y(u,v) = v (2) z(u,v) = au^4+u^2v-v^2. (3)

A quantity by which another (the multiplicand) is multiplied. For example, in the expression a×b, a is the multiplier. The result of the multiplication of two or more ...

An arrangement of n>=3 points such that n-1 of them are collinear.

Neville's algorithm is an interpolation algorithm which proceeds by first fitting a polynomial of degree 0 through the point (x_k,y_k) for k=1, ..., n, i.e., P_k(x)=y_k. A ...

"Nordstrand's weird surface" is an attractive quartic surface given by the implicit equation It has 11 ordinary double points located at (2/5,0,0), (-2/5,0,0), ...

The norm topology on a normed space X=(X,||·||_X) is the topology tau consisting of all sets which can be written as a (possibly empty) union of sets of the form B_r(x)={y in ...
