The involute of an ellipse specified parametrically by x = acost (1) y = bsint (2) is given by the parametric equations x_i = ...

The parallel curves for (outward) offset k of an ellipse with semi-axis lengths a and b are given by x_p = (a+(bk)/(sqrt(a^2sin^2t+b^2cos^2t)))cost (1) y_p = ...

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.

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 second singular value k_2, corresponding to K^'(k_2)=sqrt(2)K(k_2), (1) is given by k_2 = tan(pi/8) (2) = sqrt(2)-1 (3) k_2^' = sqrt(2)(sqrt(2)-1). (4) For this modulus, ...

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 ...
