  2. Transversality (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transversality_(mathematics)

    For example, if manifolds of complementary dimension intersect transversally, the signed sum of the number of their intersection points does not change even if we isotope the manifolds to another transverse intersection. (The intersection points can be counted modulo 2, ignoring the signs, to obtain a coarser invariant.)

  3. List of NP-complete problems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_NP-complete_problems

    NP-complete special cases include the edge dominating set problem, i.e., the dominating set problem in line graphs. NP-complete variants include the connected dominating set problem and the maximum leaf spanning tree problem.

  4. Crossed ladders problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crossed_ladders_problem

    The crossed ladders problem may appear in various forms, with variations in name, using various lengths and heights, or requesting unusual solutions such as cases where all values are integers. Its charm has been attributed to a seeming simplicity which can quickly devolve into an "algebraic mess" (characterization attributed by Gardner to D. F ...

  5. Point in polygon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_in_polygon

    One solution using the even-odd rule is to transform (complex) polygons into simpler ones that are even-odd-equivalent before the intersection check. [10] This, however, is computationally expensive. It is less expensive to use the fast non-zero winding number algorithm, which gives the correct result even when the polygon overlaps itself.

  6. Intersection type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersection_type

    Intersection types are useful for describing overloaded functions. [2] For example, if number => number is the type of function taking a number as an argument and returning a number, and string => string is the type of function taking a string as an argument and returning a string, then the intersection of these two types can be used to ...

  7. Eight queens puzzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eight_queens_puzzle

    In the modern era, it is often used as an example problem for various computer programming techniques. The eight queens puzzle is a special case of the more general n queens problem of placing n non-attacking queens on an n×n chessboard. Solutions exist for all natural numbers n with the exception of n = 2 and n = 3.
