  2. CAP theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAP_theorem

    Every request received by a non-failing node in the system must result in a response. This is the definition of availability in CAP theorem as defined by Gilbert and Lynch. [1] Note that availability as defined in CAP theorem is different from high availability in software architecture. [5] Partition tolerance

  3. Convex cap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convex_cap

    A convex cap, also known as a convex floating body [1] or just floating body, [2] is a well defined structure in mathematics commonly used in convex analysis for approximating convex shapes. In general it can be thought of as the intersection of a convex Polytope with a half-space .

  5. Real algebraic geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_algebraic_geometry

    Computational real algebraic geometry is concerned with the algorithmic aspects of real algebraic (and semialgebraic) geometry. The main algorithm is cylindrical algebraic decomposition. It is used to cut semialgebraic sets into nice pieces and to compute their projections. Real algebra is the part of algebra which is relevant to real algebraic ...

  6. Carathéodory's theorem (convex hull) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carathéodory's_theorem...

    An illustration of Carathéodory's theorem for a square in R 2. Carathéodory's theorem in 2 dimensions states that we can construct a triangle consisting of points from P that encloses any point in the convex hull of P. For example, let P = {(0,0), (0,1), (1,0), (1,1)}. The convex hull of this set is a square.

  7. Spherical cap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_cap

    In geometry, a spherical cap or spherical dome is a portion of a sphere or of a ball cut off by a plane. It is also a spherical segment of one base, i.e., bounded by a single plane. If the plane passes through the center of the sphere (forming a great circle), so that the height of the cap is equal to the radius of the sphere, the spherical cap ...

  8. Dissection problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissection_problem

    In geometry, a dissection problem is the problem of partitioning a geometric figure (such as a polytope or ball) into smaller pieces that may be rearranged into a new figure of equal content. In this context, the partitioning is called simply a dissection (of one polytope into another).

  9. Möbius strip - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Möbius_strip

    Both the Sudanese Möbius strip and another self-intersecting Möbius strip, the cross-cap, have a circular boundary. A Möbius strip without its boundary, called an open Möbius strip, can form surfaces of constant curvature. Certain highly symmetric spaces whose points represent lines in the plane have the shape of a Möbius strip.
