A conformal map acting on a rectangular grid. Note that the orthogonality of the curved grid is retained. While vector operations and physical laws are normally easiest to derive in Cartesian coordinates, non-Cartesian orthogonal coordinates are often used instead for the solution of various problems, especially boundary value problems, such as those arising in field theories of quantum ...
Conversely, the polar line (or polar) of a point Q in a circle C is the line L such that its closest point P to the center of the circle is the inversion of Q in C. If a point A lies on the polar line q of another point Q, then Q lies on the polar line a of A. More generally, the polars of all the points on the line q must pass through its pole Q.
the point's direction from the pole relative to the direction of the polar axis, a ray drawn from the pole. The distance from the pole is called the radial coordinate, radial distance or simply radius, and the angle is called the angular coordinate, polar angle, or azimuth. [1] The pole is analogous to the origin in a Cartesian coordinate system.
On a Riemannian manifold, a normal coordinate system at p facilitates the introduction of a system of spherical coordinates, known as polar coordinates. These are the coordinates on M obtained by introducing the standard spherical coordinate system on the Euclidean space T p M .
In mathematics, the polar decomposition of a square real or complex matrix is a factorization of the form =, where is a unitary matrix and is a positive semi-definite Hermitian matrix (is an orthogonal matrix and is a positive semi-definite symmetric matrix in the real case), both square and of the same size.
Well-known text (WKT) is a text markup language for representing vector geometry objects. A binary equivalent, known as well-known binary (WKB), is used to transfer and store the same information in a more compact form convenient for computer processing but that is not human-readable.
The north polar circle on a polar projection. The polar circle as lines on a modified cylindrical projection. The Arctic Circle in Finland, 1975. The Arctic Circle in Norway at Saltfjellet mountain plateau in July 2003. A polar circle is a geographic term for a conditional circular line (arc) referring either to the Arctic Circle or the ...
