A concho-spiral, also known as a conchospiral, is a space curve with parametric equations r = mu^ua (1) theta = u (2) z = mu^uc, (3) where mu, a, and c are fixed parameters. ...

A curve whose name means "shell form." Let C be a curve and O a fixed point. Let P and P^' be points on a line from O to C meeting it at Q, where P^'Q=QP=k, with k a given ...

A curve with polar coordinates, r=b+asectheta (1) studied by the Greek mathematician Nicomedes in about 200 BC, also known as the cochloid. It is the locus of points a fixed ...

The conchoid of de Sluze is the cubic curve first constructed by René de Sluze in 1662. It is given by the implicit equation (x-1)(x^2+y^2)=ax^2, (1) or the polar equation ...

A conclusion is a statement arrived at by applying a set of logical rules known as syllogisms to a set of premises. The process of drawing conclusions from premises and ...

A concordance between knots K_0 and K_1 in S^3 is a locally flat cylinder C=S^1×[0,1] embedded in S^3×[0,1] in such a way that the ends S^1×{1} are embedded in S^3×{i} as ...

A concordant form is an integer triple (a,b,N) where {a^2+b^2=c^2; a^2+Nb^2=d^2, (1) with c and d integers. Examples include {14663^2+111384^2=112345^2; ...

Two or more lines which intersect in a point are said to concur.

Two or more lines are said to be concurrent if they intersect in a single point. Two lines concur if their trilinear coordinates satisfy |l_1 m_1 n_1; l_2 m_2 n_2; l_3 m_3 ...

It is conjectured that any convex body in n-dimensional Euclidean space has an interior point lying on normals through 2n distinct boundary points (Croft et al. 1991). This ...
