  2. Planar graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planar_graph

    A 1-planar graph is a graph that may be drawn in the plane with at most one simple crossing per edge, and a k-planar graph is a graph that may be drawn with at most k simple crossings per edge. A map graph is a graph formed from a set of finitely many simply-connected interior-disjoint regions in the plane by connecting two regions when they ...

  3. Mental rotation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mental_rotation

    Example problem based on Shepard & Metzlar's "Mental Rotation Task": are these two three-dimensional shapes identical when rotated? Mental rotation is the ability to rotate mental representations of two-dimensional and three-dimensional objects as it is related to the visual representation of such rotation within the human mind. [1]

  4. Combinatorial map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combinatorial_map

    The concept of a combinatorial map was introduced informally by J. Edmonds for polyhedral surfaces [2] which are planar graphs.It was given its first definite formal expression under the name "Constellations" by A. Jacques [3] [4] but the concept was already extensively used under the name "rotation" by Gerhard Ringel [5] and J.W.T. Youngs in their famous solution of the Heawood map-coloring ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_graph_theory

    A planar graph is a graph that has an embedding onto the Euclidean plane. A plane graph is a planar graph for which a particular embedding has already been fixed. A k-planar graph is one that can be drawn in the plane with at most k crossings per edge. polytree

  6. String diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_diagram

    One such definition is to define string diagrams as equivalence classes of well-typed formulae generated by the signature, identity, composition and tensor. In practice, it is more convenient to encode string diagrams as formulae in generic form, which are in bijection with the labeled generic progressive plane graphs defined above.

  7. Euclidean plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_plane

    In graph theory, a planar graph is a graph that can be embedded in the plane, i.e., it can be drawn on the plane in such a way that its edges intersect only at their endpoints. In other words, it can be drawn in such a way that no edges cross each other. [9] Such a drawing is called a plane graph or planar embedding of the graph.

  8. Plane (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plane_(mathematics)

    In mathematics, a plane is a two-dimensional space or flat surface that extends indefinitely. A plane is the two-dimensional analogue of a point (zero dimensions), a line (one dimension) and three-dimensional space. When working exclusively in two-dimensional Euclidean space, the definite article is used, so the Euclidean plane refers to the ...

  9. Plane curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plane_curve

    A smooth plane curve is a curve in a real Euclidean plane ⁠ ⁠ and is a one-dimensional smooth manifold.This means that a smooth plane curve is a plane curve which "locally looks like a line", in the sense that near every point, it may be mapped to a line by a smooth function.
