  2. Midpoint circle algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midpoint_circle_algorithm

    A circle of radius 23 drawn by the Bresenham algorithm. In computer graphics, the midpoint circle algorithm is an algorithm used to determine the points needed for rasterizing a circle. It is a generalization of Bresenham's line algorithm. The algorithm can be further generalized to conic sections. [1] [2] [3]

  3. Point groups in two dimensions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_groups_in_two_dimensions

    The symmetry group of a square belongs to the family of dihedral groups, D n (abstract group type Dih n), including as many reflections as rotations. The infinite rotational symmetry of the circle implies reflection symmetry as well, but formally the circle group S 1 is distinct from Dih(S 1) because the latter explicitly includes the reflections.

  4. Wyckoff positions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wyckoff_positions

    The (finite) list of all symmetry operations which leave the given point invariant taken together make up another group, which is known as the site symmetry group of that point. [4] By definition, all points with the same site symmetry group, or a conjugate site symmetry group, are assigned the same Wyckoff position.

  5. Geometric median - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_median

    For the 1-dimensional case, the geometric median coincides with the median.This is because the univariate median also minimizes the sum of distances from the points. (More precisely, if the points are p 1, ..., p n, in that order, the geometric median is the middle point (+) / if n is odd, but is not uniquely determined if n is even, when it can be any point in the line segment between the two ...

  6. Gauss circle problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauss_circle_problem

    Gauss's circle problem asks how many points there are inside this circle of the form (,) where and are both integers. Since the equation of this circle is given in Cartesian coordinates by x 2 + y 2 = r 2 {\displaystyle x^{2}+y^{2}=r^{2}} , the question is equivalently asking how many pairs of integers m and n there are such that

    At such points the second derivative of curvature will be zero. Ccircles which have two-point contact with two points S(t 1), S(t 2) on a curve are bi-tangent circles. The centers of all bi-tangent circles form the symmetry set. The medial axis is a subset of the symmetry set.

  8. Centroid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centroid

    Find the centroids of these two rectangles by drawing the diagonals. Draw a line joining the centroids. The centroid of the shape must lie on this line . Divide the shape into two other rectangles, as shown in fig 3. Find the centroids of these two rectangles by drawing the diagonals. Draw a line joining the centroids.

  9. Circular symmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_symmetry

    In geometry, circular symmetry is a type of continuous symmetry for a planar object that can be rotated by any arbitrary angle and map onto itself. Rotational circular symmetry is isomorphic with the circle group in the complex plane , or the special orthogonal group SO(2), and unitary group U(1).
