An ellipsoidal section is the curve formed by the intersection of a plane with an ellipsoid. An ellipsoidal section is always an ellipse.

Given a Jacobi amplitude phi in an elliptic integral, the argument u is defined by the relation phi=am(u,k). It is related to the elliptic integral of the first kind F(u,k) ...

A parameter n used to specify an elliptic integral of the third kind Pi(n;phi,k).

An even Mathieu function ce_r(z,q) with characteristic value a_r.

delta(r)=sqrt(r)-2alpha(r), where alpha(r) is the elliptic alpha function.

E(a,b)/p denotes the elliptic group modulo p whose elements are 1 and infty together with the pairs of integers (x,y) with 0<=x,y<p satisfying y^2=x^3+ax+b (mod p) (1) with a ...

A generalization of the helicoid to the parametric equations x(u,v) = avcosu (1) y(u,v) = bvsinu (2) z(u,v) = cu. (3) In this parametrization, the surface has first ...

The real projective plane with elliptic metric where the distance between two points P and Q is defined as the radian angle between the projection of the points on the ...

A point p on a regular surface M in R^3 is said to be elliptic if the Gaussian curvature K(p)>0 or equivalently, the principal curvatures kappa_1 and kappa_2 have the same ...

An odd Mathieu function se_r(z,q) with characteristic value a_r.
