  2. Limaçon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limaçon

    In geometry, a limaçon or limacon / ˈ l ɪ m ə s ɒ n /, also known as a limaçon of Pascal or Pascal's Snail, is defined as a roulette curve formed by the path of a point fixed to a circle when that circle rolls around the outside of a circle of equal radius. It can also be defined as the roulette formed when a circle rolls around a circle ...

    The inner loop is defined when + ⁡ on the polar angle interval / /, and is symmetric about the polar axis. The point furthest from the pole on the inner loop has the coordinates ( a , 0 ) {\displaystyle (a,0)} , and on the polar axis, is one-third of the distance from the pole compared to the furthest point of the outer loop.

  4. List of problems in loop theory and quasigroup theory

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_problems_in_loop...

    Comments: When the inner mapping group Inn(Q) is finite and abelian, then Q is nilpotent (Niemenaa and Kepka). The first question is therefore open only in the infinite case. Call loop Q of Csörgõ type if it is nilpotent of class at least 3, and Inn(Q) is abelian. No loop of Csörgõ type of nilpotency class higher than 3 is known.

  5. Loop interchange - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop_interchange

    The major purpose of loop interchange is to take advantage of the CPU cache when accessing array elements. When a processor accesses an array element for the first time, it will retrieve an entire block of data from memory to cache. That block is likely to have many more consecutive elements after the first one, so on the next array element ...

    That is, they loop over the cycles, moving the data from one location to the next in the cycle. In pseudocode form: for each length>1 cycle C of the permutation pick a starting address s in C let D = data at s let x = predecessor of s in the cycle while x ≠ s move data from x to successor of x let x = predecessor of x move data from D to ...

  7. Inner loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inner_loop

    In some cases, a while loop with an inner while loop performed slower than a while loop without an inner loop. The two examples below, written in Python, present a while loop with an inner for loop and a while loop without an inner loop. Although both have the same terminating condition for their while loops, the first example will finish ...

  8. Killing form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killing_form

    The Killing form was essentially introduced into Lie algebra theory by Élie Cartan () in his thesis.In a historical survey of Lie theory, Borel (2001) has described how the term "Killing form" first occurred in 1951 during one of his own reports for the Séminaire Bourbaki; it arose as a misnomer, since the form had previously been used by Lie theorists, without a name attached.

    The goal is to free the string. The "mini rope bridge puzzle". The goal is to remove the two rings. (solution shown). Wire-and-string puzzles usually consist of: one piece of string, ribbon or similar, which may form a closed loop or which may have other pieces like balls fixed to its end. one or several pieces of stiff wire
