The pedal curve of an astroid x = acos^3t (1) y = asin^3t (2) with pedal point at the center is the quadrifolium x_p = acostsin^2t (3) y_p = acos^2tsint. (4)

The radial curve of the astroid x = acos^3t (1) y = asin^3t (2) is the quadrifolium x_r = x_0+12acostsin^2t (3) y_r = y_0+12acos^2tsint. (4)

An asymmetric matrix is a square matrix that is not symmetric, i.e., a matrix A such that A^(T)!=A, where A^(T) denotes the transpose. An asymmetric matrix therefore ...

Asymptotic behavior. A useful yet endangered word, found rarely outside the captivity of the Oxford English Dictionary (Simpson and Weiner 1992, p. 82).

An asymptote is a line or curve that approaches a given curve arbitrarily closely, as illustrated in the above diagram. The plot above shows 1/x, which has a vertical ...

An asymptotic direction at a point p of a regular surface M in R^3 is a direction in which the normal curvature of M vanishes. 1. There are no asymptotic directions at an ...

The sextic curve also known as atriphtothlassic curve and given by the equation x^4(x^2+y^2)-(ax^2-b)^2=0, where a,b>0.

The Atzema spiral, also known as the Pritch-Atzema spiral, is the curve whose catacaustic for a radiant point at the origin is a circle, as illustrated above. It has ...

A type of sale in which members of a group of buyers offer ever increasing amounts. The bidder making the last bid (for which no higher bid is subsequently made within a ...

The augmented dodecahedron is Johnson solid J_(58), which is formed from augmentation of one of the faces of the regular dodecahedron by an equilateral pentagonal pyramid. It ...
