Borromean rings. In mathematics, the Borromean rings[a] are three simple closed curves in three-dimensional space that are topologically linked and cannot be separated from each other, but that break apart into two unknotted and unlinked loops when any one of the three is cut or removed. Most commonly, these rings are drawn as three circles in ...
The inverse of the curve C is then the locus of P as Q runs over C. The point O in this construction is called the center of inversion, the circle the circle of inversion, and k the radius of inversion. An inversion applied twice is the identity transformation, so the inverse of an inverse curve with respect to the same circle is the original ...
A Delaunay triangulation in the plane with circumcircles shown. In computational geometry, a Delaunay triangulation or Delone triangulation of a set of points in the plane subdivides their convex hull [1] into triangles whose circumcircles do not contain any of the points. This maximizes the size of the smallest angle in any of the triangles ...
P ' is the inverse of P with respect to the circle. To invert a number in arithmetic usually means to take its reciprocal. A closely related idea in geometry is that of "inverting" a point. In the plane, the inverse of a point P with respect to a reference circle (Ø) with center O and radius r is a point P ', lying on the ray from O through P ...
A Karnaugh map (KM or K-map) is a diagram that can be used to simplify a Boolean algebra expression. Maurice Karnaugh introduced it in 1953 [1][2] as a refinement of Edward W. Veitch 's 1952 Veitch chart, [3][4] which itself was a rediscovery of Allan Marquand 's 1881 logical diagram[5][6] (aka. Marquand diagram[4]).
A mosaic plot, Marimekko chart, Mekko chart, or sometimes percent stacked bar plot, is a graphical visualization of data from two or more qualitative variables. [1] It is the multidimensional extension of spineplots, which graphically display the same information for only one variable. [2] It gives an overview of the data and makes it possible ...
Direct projection of 3-sphere into 3D space and covered with surface grid, showing structure as stack of 3D spheres (2-spheres) In mathematics, a hypersphere, 3-sphere, or glome is a 4-dimensional analogue of a sphere, and is the 3-dimensional n-sphere. In 4-dimensional Euclidean space, it is the set of points equidistant from a fixed central ...
A negative correlation between variables is also called inverse correlation. Negative correlation can be seen geometrically when two normalized random vectors are viewed as points on a sphere, and the correlation between them is the cosine of the circular arc of separation of the points on a great circle of the sphere.
