  2. Dynamic rectangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_rectangle

    A root-phi rectangle divides into a pair of Kepler triangles (right triangles with edge lengths in geometric progression). The rootrectangle is a dynamic rectangle but not a root rectangle. Its diagonal equals φ times the length of the shorter side. If a rootrectangle is divided by a diagonal, the result is two congruent Kepler triangles.

    [5] [page needed] It says that, if the topological degree of a function f on a rectangle is non-zero, then the rectangle must contain at least one root of f. This criterion is the basis for several root-finding methods, such as those of Stenger [6] and Kearfott. [7] However, computing the topological degree can be time-consuming.

  5. Minimum bounding box algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum_bounding_box...

    For the convex polygon, a linear time algorithm for the minimum-area enclosing rectangle is known. It is based on the observation that a side of a minimum-area enclosing box must be collinear with a side of the convex polygon. [ 1 ]

  6. R-tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-tree

    The key idea of the data structure is to group nearby objects and represent them with their minimum bounding rectangle in the next higher level of the tree; the "R" in R-tree is for rectangle. Since all objects lie within this bounding rectangle, a query that does not intersect the bounding rectangle also cannot intersect any of the contained ...

  7. Talk:Root rectangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Root_rectangle

    The article says that root rectangles are part of the broader group of dynamic rectangles. It also says that dynamic rectangles have irrational (in the mathematical sense) proportions. But a lot of root rectangles have rational proportions. Hambidge himself illustrates a root-4 rectangle, which is rational. So is root-1, a square.

  8. Laguerre's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laguerre's_method

    If x is a simple root of the polynomial , then Laguerre's method converges cubically whenever the initial guess, , is close enough to the root . On the other hand, when x 1 {\displaystyle \ x_{1}\ } is a multiple root convergence is merely linear, with the penalty of calculating values for the polynomial and its first and second derivatives at ...

  9. Plotting algorithms for the Mandelbrot set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plotting_algorithms_for...

    Rectangle checking is an older and simpler method for plotting the Mandelbrot set. The basic idea of rectangle checking is that if every pixel in a rectangle's border shares the same amount of iterations, then the rectangle can be safely filled using that number of iterations.
