  2. Bipolar coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bipolar_coordinates

    Bipolar coordinates are a two-dimensional orthogonal coordinate system based on the Apollonian circles. [1] There is also a third system, based on two poles ( biangular coordinates ). The term "bipolar" is further used on occasion to describe other curves having two singular points (foci), such as ellipses , hyperbolas , and Cassini ovals .

  3. Superellipse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superellipse

    A superellipse, also known as a Lamé curve after Gabriel Lamé, is a closed curve resembling the ellipse, retaining the geometric features of semi-major axis and semi-minor axis, and symmetry about them, but defined by an equation that allows for various shapes between a rectangle and an ellipse. In two dimensional Cartesian coordinate system ...

  4. Euler spiral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_spiral

    A double-end Euler spiral. The curve continues to converge to the points marked, as t tends to positive or negative infinity.. An Euler spiral is a curve whose curvature changes linearly with its curve length (the curvature of a circular curve is equal to the reciprocal of the radius).

  5. Desmos - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desmos

    The name Desmos came from the Greek word δεσμός which means a bond or a tie. [6] In May 2022, Amplify acquired the Desmos curriculum and teacher.desmos.com. Some 50 employees joined Amplify. Desmos Studio was spun off as a separate public benefit corporation focused on building calculator products and other math tools. [7]

  6. Squircle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squircle

    Squircle centred on the origin (a = b = 0) with minor radius r = 1: x 4 + y 4 = 1A squircle is a shape intermediate between a square and a circle.There are at least two definitions of "squircle" in use, one based on the superellipse, the other arising from work in optics.

  7. Total variation distance of probability measures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_variation_distance...

    The total variation distance (or half the norm) arises as the optimal transportation cost, when the cost function is (,) =, that is, ‖ ‖ = (,) = {(): =, =} = ⁡ [], where the expectation is taken with respect to the probability measure on the space where (,) lives, and the infimum is taken over all such with marginals and , respectively.

  8. Inverse hyperbolic functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_hyperbolic_functions

    A ray through the unit hyperbola = in the point (,), where is twice the area between the ray, the hyperbola, and the -axis. The earliest and most widely adopted symbols use the prefix arc-(that is: arcsinh, arccosh, arctanh, arcsech, arccsch, arccoth), by analogy with the inverse circular functions (arcsin, etc.).

  9. Green's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green's_theorem

    The following is a proof of half of the theorem for the simplified area D, a type I region where C 1 and C 3 are curves connected by vertical lines (possibly of zero length). A similar proof exists for the other half of the theorem when D is a type II region where C 2 and C 4 are curves connected by horizontal lines (again, possibly of zero ...
