  2. Discrete global grid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discrete_global_grid

    The right aside illustration show 3 boundary maps of the coast of Great Britain. The first map was covered by a grid-level-0 with 150 km size cells. Only a grey cell in the center, with no need of zoom for detail, remains level-0; all other cells of the second map was partitioned into four-cells-grid (grid-level-1), each with 75 km.

  3. Quadrilateralized spherical cube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadrilateralized...

    Development of the quadrilateralized spherical cube projection on an Earth model [1] In mapmaking, a quadrilateralized spherical cube, or quad sphere for short, is an equal-area polyhedral map projection and discrete global grid scheme for data collected on a spherical surface (either that of the Earth or the celestial sphere).

  4. Polygon partition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygon_partition

    Polygon decomposition is applied in several areas: [1] Pattern recognition techniques extract information from an object in order to describe, identify or classify it. An established strategy for recognising a general polygonal object is to decompose it into simpler components, then identify the components and their interrelationships and use this information to determine the shape of the object.

  5. Planar separator theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planar_separator_theorem

    A planar separator for a grid graph. Consider a grid graph with rows and columns; the number of vertices equals .For instance, in the illustration, =, =, and = =.If is odd, there is a single central row, and otherwise there are two rows equally close to the center; similarly, if is odd, there is a single central column, and otherwise there are two columns equally close to the center.

  6. Branch-decomposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branch-decomposition

    Branch decomposition of a grid graph, showing an e-separation.The separation, the decomposition, and the graph all have width three. In graph theory, a branch-decomposition of an undirected graph G is a hierarchical clustering of the edges of G, represented by an unrooted binary tree T with the edges of G as its leaves.

  7. Rhombic dodecahedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhombic_dodecahedron

    The rhombic dodecahedron can be seen as a degenerate limiting case of a pyritohedron, with permutation of coordinates (±1, ±1, ±1) and (0, 1 + h, 1 − h 2) with parameter h = 1. These coordinates illustrate that a rhombic dodecahedron can be seen as a cube with six square pyramids attached to each face, allowing them to fit together into a ...

  8. Domino tiling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domino_tiling

    In geometry, a domino tiling of a region in the Euclidean plane is a tessellation of the region by dominoes, shapes formed by the union of two unit squares meeting edge-to-edge. Equivalently, it is a perfect matching in the grid graph formed by placing a vertex at the center of each square of the region and connecting two vertices when they ...

  9. Geodesic grid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geodesic_grid

    Such a grid does not have a straightforward relationship to latitude and longitude, but conforms to many of the main criteria for a statistically valid discrete global grid. [9] Primarily, the cells' area and shape are generally similar, especially near the poles where many other spatial grids have singularities or heavy distortion.
