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 or 3-sphere 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 point.
Homology 3-spheres have a unique spin structure so we can define the Rokhlin invariant of a homology 3-sphere to be the element / of /, where M any spin 4-manifold bounding the homology sphere. For example, the Poincaré homology sphere bounds a spin 4-manifold with intersection form E 8 {\displaystyle E_{8}} , so its Rokhlin invariant is 1.
There are two possibilities: if =, the spheres coincide, and the intersection is the entire sphere; if , the spheres are disjoint and the intersection is empty. When a is nonzero, the intersection lies in a vertical plane with this x-coordinate, which may intersect both of the spheres, be tangent to both spheres, or external to both spheres.
If p, q, and r are pairwise relatively prime positive integers then the link of the singularity x p + y q + z r = 0 (in other words, the intersection of a small 3-sphere around 0 with this complex surface) is a Brieskorn manifold that is a homology 3-sphere, called a Brieskorn 3-sphere Σ(p, q, r).
The three apex points always define a plane in three dimensions, and all three centers of similarity must lie in the plane containing the circular bases. Hence, the three centers must lie on the intersection of the two planes, which must be a line in three dimensions. [2] Monge's theorem can also be proved by using Desargues' theorem.
It is obtained using the Chern–Simons functional on the space of connections on a principal SU(2)-bundle over the three-manifold (more precisely, homology 3-spheres). Its critical points are flat connections and its flow lines are instantons , i.e. anti-self-dual connections on the three-manifold crossed with the real line.
For every 3 non-theme words you find, you earn a hint. Hints show the letters of a theme word. If there is already an active hint on the board, a hint will show that word’s letter order.
The commonly-used diagram for the Borromean rings consists of three equal circles centered at the points of an equilateral triangle, close enough together that their interiors have a common intersection (such as in a Venn diagram or the three circles used to define the Reuleaux triangle).
