Two numbers are homogeneous if they have identical prime factors. An example of a homogeneous pair is (6, 72), both of which share prime factors 2 and 3: 6 = 2·3 (1) 72 = ...

The extremities of parallel radii of two circles are called homologous with respect to the similitude center collinear with them.

The term "homology group" usually means a singular homology group, which is an Abelian group which partially counts the number of holes in a topological space. In particular, ...

Nonconcurrent triangles with parallel sides are always homothetic. Homothetic triangles are always perspective triangles. Their perspector is called their homothetic center.

Three impossible ways to combine four bars.

The indices of a contravariant tensor A^j can be lowered, turning it into a covariant tensor A_i, by multiplication by a so-called metric tensor g_(ij), e.g., g_(ij)A^j=A_i.

The illusion shown above which was discovered by Helmholtz in the 19th century. Despite the fact that the two above figures are identical in size, the white hole looks bigger ...

The repeated application of a transformation.

A geodesic triangle with oriented boundary yields a curve which is piecewise differentiable. Furthermore, the tangent vector varies continuously at all but the three corner ...

The Koch snowflake is a fractal curve, also known as the Koch island, which was first described by Helge von Koch in 1904. It is built by starting with an equilateral ...
