  2. Wallpaper group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wallpaper_group

    A wallpaper group (or plane symmetry group or plane crystallographic group) is a mathematical classification of a two-dimensional repetitive pattern, based on the symmetries in the pattern. Such patterns occur frequently in architecture and decorative art , especially in textiles , tiles , and wallpaper .

  3. Pixel geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pixel_geometry

    The geometric arrangement of the primary colors within a pixel varies depending on usage (see figure 1). In monitors , such as LCDs or CRTs , that typically display edges or rectangles, the components are arranged in vertical stripes.

    [22] [23] Moroccan geometric woodwork from the 14th to 19th centuries makes use of only 5 wallpaper groups, mainly p4mm and c2mm, with p6mm and p2mm occasionally and p4gm rarely; it is claimed that the "Hasba" (measure) method of construction, which starts with n-fold rosettes, can however generate all 17 groups. [24] Methods of construction

  6. Geometric design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_design

    Geometric problems originating in architecture can lead to interesting research and results in geometry processing, computer-aided geometric design, and discrete differential geometry. [ 2 ] In architecture, geometric design is associated with the pioneering explorations of Chuck Hoberman into transformational geometry as a design idiom, and ...

  7. Mathematical beauty - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_beauty

    Mathematical beauty is the aesthetic pleasure derived from the abstractness, purity, simplicity, depth or orderliness of mathematics. Mathematicians may express this pleasure by describing mathematics (or, at least, some aspect of mathematics) as beautiful or describe mathematics as an art form, (a position taken by G. H. Hardy [ 1 ] ) or, at a ...

  8. Figurative art - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Figurative_art

    The formal elements, those aesthetic effects created by design, upon which figurative art is dependent, include line, shape, color, light and dark, mass, volume, texture, and perspective, [2] although these elements of design could also play a role in creating other types of imagery—for instance abstract, or non-representational or non-objective two-dimensional artwork.

  9. Algebraic geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_geometry

    Algebraic geometry is a branch of mathematics which uses abstract algebraic techniques, mainly from commutative algebra, to solve geometrical problems.Classically, it studies zeros of multivariate polynomials; the modern approach generalizes this in a few different aspects.
