  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 number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_number

    Geometric representation of z and its conjugate z in the complex plane. The complex conjugate of the complex number z = x + yi is defined as ¯ =. [11] It is also denoted by some authors by . Geometrically, z is the "reflection" of z about the real axis.

  5. 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]

  7. Hyperbola - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbola

    Since both the transverse axis and the conjugate axis are axes of symmetry, the symmetry group of a hyperbola is the Klein four-group. The rectangular hyperbolas xy = constant admit group actions by squeeze mappings which have the hyperbolas as invariant sets.

  8. Schwarz reflection principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwarz_reflection_principle

    In mathematics, the Schwarz reflection principle is a way to extend the domain of definition of a complex analytic function, i.e., it is a form of analytic continuation.It states that if an analytic function is defined on the upper half-plane, and has well-defined (non-singular) real values on the real axis, then it can be extended to the conjugate function on the lower half-plane.

  9. Complex plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_plane

    Imagine two copies of the cut complex plane, the cuts extending along the positive real axis from z = 0 to the point at infinity. On one sheet define 0 ≤ arg(z) < 2π, so that 1 1/2 = e 0 = 1, by definition. On the second sheet define 2π ≤ arg(z) < 4π, so that 1 1/2 = e iπ = −1, again by definition.
