The interior of a set is the union of all its open subsets. More informally, the interior of geometric structure is that portion of a region lying "inside" a specified ...

Lines that intersect in a point are called intersecting lines. Lines that do not intersect are called parallel lines in the plane, and either parallel or skew lines in ...

A curvature such as Gaussian curvature which is detectable to the "inhabitants" of a surface and not just outside observers. An extrinsic curvature, on the other hand, is not ...

A negative-height (inward-pointing) pyramid used in augmentation. The term was introduced by B. Grünbaum.

Three concurrent homologous lines pass respectively through three fixed points on the similitude circle which are known as the invariable points.

Given a smooth function f:R^n->R^n, if the Jacobian is invertible at 0, then there is a neighborhood U containing 0 such that f:U->f(U) is a diffeomorphism. That is, there is ...

To predict the result of a measurement requires (1) a model of the system under investigation, and (2) a physical theory linking the parameters of the model to the parameters ...

The use of three prior points in a root-finding algorithm to estimate the zero crossing.

Two figures are said to be similar when all corresponding angles are equal, and are inversely similar when all corresponding angles are equal and described in the opposite ...
