  2. Intersection number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersection_number

    Let X be a Riemann surface.Then the intersection number of two closed curves on X has a simple definition in terms of an integral. For every closed curve c on X (i.e., smooth function :), we can associate a differential form of compact support, the Poincaré dual of c, with the property that integrals along c can be calculated by integrals over X:

  3. Line–line intersection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lineline_intersection

    In order to find the intersection point of a set of lines, we calculate the point with minimum distance to them. Each line is defined by an origin a i and a unit direction vector n̂ i. The square of the distance from a point p to one of the lines is given from Pythagoras:

  4. Intersection number (graph theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersection_number_(graph...

    As well as being called the intersection number, the minimum number of these cliques has been called the R-content, [7] edge clique cover number, [4] or clique cover number. [8] The problem of computing the intersection number has been called the intersection number problem , [ 9 ] the intersection graph basis problem , [ 10 ] covering by ...

  5. Point in polygon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_in_polygon

    If the winding number is non-zero, the point lies inside the polygon. This algorithm is sometimes also known as the nonzero-rule algorithm. To check if a given point lies inside or outside a polygon: Draw a horizontal line to the right of each point and extend it to infinity. Count the number of times the line intersects with polygon edges.

  6. Bentley–Ottmann algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bentley–Ottmann_algorithm

    The Bentley–Ottmann algorithm processes a sequence of + events, where denotes the number of input line segments and denotes the number of crossings. Each event is processed by a constant number of operations in the binary search tree and the event queue, and (because it contains only segment endpoints and crossings between adjacent segments ...

  7. Line clipping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_clipping

    It can be used for line or line-segment clipping against a rectangular window, as well as against a convex polygon. The algorithm is based on classifying a vertex of the clipping window against a half-space given by a line p: ax + by + c = 0. The result of the classification determines the edges intersected by the line p. The algorithm is ...

  8. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Python sets are very much like mathematical sets, and support operations like set intersection and union. Python also features a frozenset class for immutable sets, see Collection types. Dictionaries (class dict) are mutable mappings tying keys and corresponding values. Python has special syntax to create dictionaries ({key: value})

  9. Intersection graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersection_graph

    An example of how intersecting sets define a graph. In graph theory, an intersection graph is a graph that represents the pattern of intersections of a family of sets.Any graph can be represented as an intersection graph, but some important special classes of graphs can be defined by the types of sets that are used to form an intersection representation of them.
