A ruled surface M is said to be a binormal developable of a curve y if M can be parameterized by x(u,v)=y(u)+vB^^(u), where B is the binormal vector.

If the cross ratio kappa of {AB,CD} satisfy kappa^2-kappa+1=0, (1) then the points are said to form a bivalent range, and {AB,CD}={AC,DB}={AD,BC}=kappa (2) ...

In a cyclic quadrilateral ABCD having perpendicular diagonals AC_|_BD, the perpendiculars to the sides through point T of intersection of the diagonals (the anticenter) ...

For a curve with first fundamental form ds^2=Edu^2+2Fdudv+Gdv^2, (1) the Gaussian curvature is K=(M_1-M_2)/((EG-F^2)^2), (2) where M_1 = |-1/2E_(vv)+F_(uv)-1/2G_(uu) 1/2E_u ...

A convex set K is centro-symmetric, sometimes also called centrally symmetric, if it has a center p that bisects every chord of K through p.

Let C_1, C_2, C_3, and C_4 be four circles of general position through a point P. Let P_(ij) be the second intersection of the circles C_i and C_j. Let C_(ijk) be the circle ...

The collapsoids are a class of non-convex collapsible polyhedra. They can be constructed by replacing each edge of a dodecahedron or icosahedron by the diagonal of a pyramid ...

The curve d(u) in the ruled surface parameterization x(u,v)=b(u)+vd(u).

A chord which is a normal at each end. A centrosymmetric set K subset R^d has d double normals through the center (Croft et al. 1991). For a curve of constant width, all ...

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 ...
