    Wave is the eighth studio album by Murray Head. It was released in 1992. [1] In 2000, Wave was reissued under the title Innocence, which is also the title of a previous album by Murray Head. There was one change to the track listing, "Move Closer" replacing "Feel No Shame".

  3. Envelope (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In geometry, an envelope of a planar family of curves is a curve that is tangent to each member of the family at some point, and these points of tangency together form the whole envelope. Classically, a point on the envelope can be thought of as the intersection of two " infinitesimally adjacent" curves, meaning the limit of intersections of ...

  4. Synthetic geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthetic_geometry

    The first systematic approach for synthetic geometry is Euclid's Elements. However, it appeared at the end of the 19th century that Euclid's postulates were not sufficient for characterizing geometry. The first complete axiom system for geometry was given only at the end of the 19th century by David Hilbert. At the same time, it appeared that ...

  6. Hilbert's axioms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilbert's_axioms

    Removing five axioms mentioning "plane" in an essential way, namely I.4–8, and modifying III.4 and IV.1 to omit mention of planes, yields an axiomatization of Euclidean plane geometry. Hilbert's axioms, unlike Tarski's axioms , do not constitute a first-order theory because the axioms V.1–2 cannot be expressed in first-order logic .

  7. Foundations of geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foundations_of_geometry

    Based on ancient Greek methods, an axiomatic system is a formal description of a way to establish the mathematical truth that flows from a fixed set of assumptions. Although applicable to any area of mathematics, geometry is the branch of elementary mathematics in which this method has most extensively been successfully applied.

  8. Derivations of the Lorentz transformations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derivations_of_the_Lorentz...

    The usual treatment (e.g., Albert Einstein's original work) is based on the invariance of the speed of light. However, this is not necessarily the starting point: indeed (as is described, for example, in the second volume of the Course of Theoretical Physics by Landau and Lifshitz), what is really at stake is the locality of interactions: one supposes that the influence that one particle, say ...

  9. Sum of angles of a triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sum_of_angles_of_a_triangle

    In Euclidean geometry, the triangle postulate states that the sum of the angles of a triangle is two right angles. This postulate is equivalent to the parallel postulate. [1] In the presence of the other axioms of Euclidean geometry, the following statements are equivalent: [2] Triangle postulate: The sum of the angles of a triangle is two ...
