An inversion may be denoted by the pair of places (2, 4) or the pair of elements (5, 2). The inversions of this permutation using element-based notation are: (3, 1), (3, 2), (5, 1), (5, 2), and (5,4). In computer science and discrete mathematics, an inversion in a sequence is a pair of elements that are out of their natural order.
Inversion of a line is a circle containing the center of inversion; or it is the line itself if it contains the center; Inversion of a circle is another circle; or it is a line if the original circle contains the center; Inversion of a parabola is a cardioid; Inversion of hyperbola is a lemniscate of Bernoulli
The smallest abstract groups that are not any symmetry group in 3D, are the quaternion group (of order 8), Z 3 × Z 3 (of order 9), the dicyclic group Dic 3 (of order 12), and 10 of the 14 groups of order 16. The column "# of order 2 elements" in the following tables shows the total number of isometry subgroups of types C 2, C i, C s. This ...
The set of all reflections in lines through the origin and rotations about the origin, together with the operation of composition of reflections and rotations, forms a group. The group has an identity: Rot(0). Every rotation Rot(φ) has an inverse Rot(−φ). Every reflection Ref(θ) is its own inverse. Composition has closure and is ...
Any involution is a bijection.. The identity map is a trivial example of an involution. Examples of nontrivial involutions include negation (x ↦ −x), reciprocation (x ↦ 1/x), and complex conjugation (z ↦ z) in arithmetic; reflection, half-turn rotation, and circle inversion in geometry; complementation in set theory; and reciprocal ciphers such as the ROT13 transformation and the ...
As noted above, the inverse with respect to a circle of a curve of degree n has degree at most 2n.The degree is exactly 2n unless the original curve passes through the point of inversion or it is circular, meaning that it contains the circular points, (1, ±i, 0), when considered as a curve in the complex projective plane.

In most applications, f is a function from R n to R p and the set Y is a box of R p (i.e. a Cartesian product of p intervals of R). When f is nonlinear the set inversion problem can be solved [1] using interval analysis combined with a branch-and-bound algorithm. [2] The main idea consists in building a paving of R p made with non-overlapping ...
