  2. Nonzero-rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonzero-rule

    A curve (top) is filled according to two rules: the even-odd rule (left), and the non-zero winding rule (right). In each case an arrow shows a ray from a point P heading out of the curve. In the even-odd case, the ray is intersected by two lines, an even number; therefore P is concluded to be 'outside' the curve.

  3. Field line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_line

    Field lines depicting the electric field created by a positive charge (left), negative charge (center), and uncharged object (right). A field line is a graphical visual aid for visualizing vector fields. It consists of an imaginary integral curve which is tangent to the field vector at each point along its length.

  4. Mathematical descriptions of the electromagnetic field

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_descriptions...

    The principal U(1)-connection ∇ on the line bundle has a curvature F = ∇ 2, which is a two-form that automatically satisfies dF = 0 and can be interpreted as a field strength. If the line bundle is trivial with flat reference connection d we can write ∇ = d + A and F = dA with A the 1-form composed of the electric potential and the ...

  5. Lasso tool - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lasso_tool

    The lasso (or "free form selection") is an editing tool available, with minor variations, in most digital image editing software [1] and some specific strategy games.It is often accessed from the standard main menu (in Photoshop, [2] Paint Tool SAI, [3] and GIMP, [4] as common examples), by clicking the icon of a dotted line shaped like a rope lasso, from which the common name arises.

  6. Glossary of field theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_field_theory

    A field is a commutative ring (F, +, *) in which 0 ≠ 1 and every nonzero element has a multiplicative inverse. In a field we thus can perform the operations addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. The non-zero elements of a field F form an abelian group under multiplication; this group is typically denoted by F ×;

  7. Circulation (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circulation_(physics)

    Field lines of a vector field v, around the boundary of an open curved surface with infinitesimal line element dl along boundary, and through its interior with dS the infinitesimal surface element and n the unit normal to the surface. Top: Circulation is the line integral of v around a closed loop C. Project v along dl, then sum.

  8. Flood fill - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flood_fill

    Zero boundary pixels are filled. Where a path or boundary is to be followed, the right-hand rule is used. The painter follows the region by placing their right-hand on the wall (the boundary of the region) and progressing around the edge of the region without removing their hand.

  9. Hairy ball theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hairy_ball_theorem

    A common problem in computer graphics is to generate a non-zero vector in ℝ 3 that is orthogonal to a given non-zero vector. There is no single continuous function that can do this for all non-zero vector inputs. This is a corollary of the hairy ball theorem. To see this, consider the given vector as the radius of a sphere and note that ...
