A topological space fulfilling the T_4-axiom: X fulfils the T1-separation axiom and is normal. In the terminology of Alexandroff and Hopf (1972), T_4-space are called Tietze ...

A double point at which two (or more) osculating curves are tangent. The above plot shows the tacnode of the curve 2x^4-3x^2y+y^2-2y^3+y^4=0. The capricornoid and links curve ...

The tail of a vector AB^-> is the initial point A, i.e., the point at which the vector originates. The tails of a statistical distribution with probability density function ...

An (n,k)-talisman hexagon is an arrangement of nested hexagons containing the integers 1, 2, ..., H_n=3n(n-1)+1, where H_n is the nth hex number, such that the difference ...

An n×n array of the integers from 1 to n^2 such that the difference between any one integer and its neighbor (horizontally, vertically, or diagonally, without wrapping ...

The external (internal) similarity point of two fixed circles is the point at which all the circles homogeneously (nonhomogeneously) tangent to the fixed circles have the ...

Two curves both containing the point P are tangent at P if they share the same tangent line at P.

A ruled surface M is a tangent developable of a curve y if M can be parameterized by x(u,v)=y(u)+vy^'(u). A tangent developable is a developable surface.

Let the speed sigma of a closed curve on the unit sphere S^2 never vanish. Then the tangent indicatrix, also called the tantrix, tau=(sigma^.)/(|sigma^.|) is another closed ...

Let (x_0,y_0) be any point of a surface function z=f(x,y). Then the surface has a nonvertical tangent plane at (x_0,y_0) with equation ...
