  2. Chain complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chain_complex

    A chain homotopy offers a way to relate two chain maps that induce the same map on homology groups, even though the maps may be different. Given two chain complexes A and B, and two chain maps f, g : A → B, a chain homotopy is a sequence of homomorphisms h n : A n → B n+1 such that hd A + d B h = f − g. The maps may be written out in a ...

  3. Chain (algebraic topology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chain_(algebraic_topology)

    The boundary of a chain is the linear combination of boundaries of the simplices in the chain. The boundary of a k-chain is a (k−1)-chain. Note that the boundary of a simplex is not a simplex, but a chain with coefficients 1 or −1 – thus chains are the closure of simplices under the boundary operator.

  4. Arbelos - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arbelos

    An arbelos (grey region) Arbelos sculpture in Kaatsheuvel, Netherlands In geometry, an arbelos is a plane region bounded by three semicircles with three apexes such that each corner of each semicircle is shared with one of the others (connected), all on the same side of a straight line (the baseline) that contains their diameters.

  5. Polygon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygon

    In geometry, a polygon (/ ˈ p ɒ l ɪ ɡ ɒ n /) is a plane figure made up of line segments connected to form a closed polygonal chain. The segments of a closed polygonal chain are called its edges or sides. The points where two edges meet are the polygon's vertices or corners. An n-gon is a polygon with n sides; for example, a triangle is a 3 ...

  6. Truncation (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncation_(geometry)

    Faces are reduced to half as many sides, and square faces degenerate into edges. For example, the tetrahedron is an alternated cube, h{4,3}. Diminishment is a more general term used in reference to Johnson solids for the removal of one or more vertices, edges, or faces of a polytope, without disturbing the other vertices.

  7. Cognate linkage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognate_linkage

    In kinematics, cognate linkages are linkages that ensure the same coupler curve geometry or input-output relationship, while being dimensionally dissimilar. In case of four-bar linkage coupler cognates, the Roberts–Chebyshev Theorem , after Samuel Roberts and Pafnuty Chebyshev , [ 1 ] states that each coupler curve can be generated by three ...

    Diagram illustrating three basic geometric sequences of the pattern 1(r n−1) up to 6 iterations deep.The first block is a unit block and the dashed line represents the infinite sum of the sequence, a number that it will forever approach but never touch: 2, 3/2, and 4/3 respectively.
