A geodesic mapping f:M->N between two Riemannian manifolds is a diffeomorphism sending geodesics of M into geodesics of N, whose inverse also sends geodesics to geodesics ...

A triangle formed by the arcs of three geodesics on a smooth surface.

Two geometric figures are said to exhibit geometric congruence (or "be geometrically congruent") iff one can be transformed into the other by an isometry (Coxeter and ...

An affine transformation in which the scale is reduced.

A point-to-line and line-to-point transformation which transforms points A into lines a^' and lines b into points B^' such that a^' passes through B^' iff A^' lies on b.

A perspective collineation in which the center and axis are not incident. The term was first used by Poncelet (Cremona 1960, p. ix).

The statistical index P_G=[product((p_n)/(p_0))^(v_0)]^(1/Sigmav_0), where p_n is the price per unit in period n, q_n is the quantity produced in period n, and v_n=p_nq_n the ...

If the abstract simplicial complex S is isomorphic with the vertex scheme of the simplicial complex K, then K is said to be a geometric realization of S, and is uniquely ...

The geometric span is largest possible distance between two points drawn from a finite set of points. It is therefore closely related to the generalized diameter of a closed ...

A disk D in a solid torus V=S^1×D^2 is called meridinal if its boundary is a nontrivial curve in del V (so that it is a meridian). Then a closed subset X subset V is called ...
