  2. Complex conjugate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_conjugate

    Geometric representation (Argand diagram) of and its conjugate ¯ in the complex plane.The complex conjugate is found by reflecting across the real axis.. In mathematics, the complex conjugate of a complex number is the number with an equal real part and an imaginary part equal in magnitude but opposite in sign.

  3. Semi-major and semi-minor axes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semi-major_and_semi-minor_axes

    The transverse axis of a hyperbola coincides with the major axis. [4] In a hyperbola, a conjugate axis or minor axis of length , corresponding to the minor axis of an ellipse, can be drawn perpendicular to the transverse axis or major axis, the latter connecting the two vertices (turning points) of the hyperbola, with the two axes intersecting ...

  4. Complex conjugate representation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_conjugate...

    Π (g) is the conjugate of Π(g) for all g in G. Π is also a representation, as one may check explicitly. If g is a real Lie algebra and π is a representation of it over the vector space V, then the conjugate representation π is defined over the conjugate vector space V as follows: π (X) is the conjugate of π(X) for all X in g. [1]

  5. Argument (complex analysis) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument_(complex_analysis)

    Figure 1. This Argand diagram represents the complex number lying on a plane.For each point on the plane, arg is the function which returns the angle . In mathematics (particularly in complex analysis), the argument of a complex number z, denoted arg(z), is the angle between the positive real axis and the line joining the origin and z, represented as a point in the complex plane, shown as in ...

  6. Conjugation of isometries in Euclidean space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugation_of_isometries...

    In 3D, the conjugate by a translation of a rotation about an axis is the corresponding rotation about the translated axis. Such a conjugation produces the screw displacement known to express an arbitrary Euclidean motion according to Chasles' theorem.

  7. Conjugate diameters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugate_diameters

    Using these concepts, "two diameters are conjugate when each is the polar of the figurative point of the other." [5] Only one of the conjugate diameters of a hyperbola cuts the curve. The notion of point-pair separation distinguishes an ellipse from a hyperbola: In the ellipse every pair of conjugate diameters separates every other pair. In a ...

  9. Complex plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_plane

    In mathematics, the complex plane is the plane formed by the complex numbers, with a Cartesian coordinate system such that the horizontal x-axis, called the real axis, is formed by the real numbers, and the vertical y-axis, called the imaginary axis, is formed by the imaginary numbers.
