Of all convex n-gons of a given perimeter, the one which maximizes area is the regular n-gon.

An isosceles trapezoid (called an isosceles trapezium by the British; Bronshtein and Semendyayev 1997, p. 174) is trapezoid in which the base angles are equal and therefore ...

An isozonohedron is a zonohedron whose faces consist of n(n-1) congruent rhombi (Fedorov 1953, pp. 256-266; Chilton and Coxeter 1963). The following table summarizes some of ...

In Kepler's 1619 book Harmonice Mundi on tilings, he discussed a tiling built with pentagons, pentagrams, decagons, and "fused decagon pairs." He also called them "monsters." ...

A theorem which states that if a Kähler form represents an integral cohomology class on a compact manifold, then it must be a projective Abelian variety.

The Lambert cylindrical equal-area projection is a cylindrical equal-area projection with standard parallel phi_s=0 degrees.

There are two curves commonly known as the Lamé curve: the ellipse evolute and the superellipse.

A two-dimensional planar closed surface L which has a mass M and a surface density sigma(x,y) (in units of mass per areas squared) such that M=int_Lsigma(x,y)dxdy. The center ...

A function giving the distribution of the interpoint distances of a curve. It is defined by p(r)=1/Nsum_(ij)delta_(r_(ij)=r).
