  2. Translation (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translation_(geometry)

    In Euclidean geometry, a translation is a geometric transformation that moves every point of a figure, shape or space by the same distance in a given direction. A translation can also be interpreted as the addition of a constant vector to every point, or as shifting the origin of the coordinate system .

  3. Image (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    The image of the function is the set of all output values it may produce, that is, the image of . The preimage of f {\displaystyle f} , that is, the preimage of Y {\displaystyle Y} under f {\displaystyle f} , always equals X {\displaystyle X} (the domain of f {\displaystyle f} ); therefore, the former notion is rarely used.

  4. Nash embedding theorems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nash_embedding_theorems

    The technical statement appearing in Nash's original paper is as follows: if M is a given m-dimensional Riemannian manifold (analytic or of class C k, 3 ≤ k ≤ ∞), then there exists a number n (with n ≤ m(3m+11)/2 if M is a compact manifold, and with n ≤ m(m+1)(3m+11)/2 if M is a non-compact manifold) and an isometric embedding ƒ: M → R n (also analytic or of class C k).

  5. Euclidean plane isometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_plane_isometry

    This is a glide reflection, except in the special case that the translation is perpendicular to the line of reflection, in which case the combination is itself just a reflection in a parallel line. The identity isometry, defined by I(p) = p for all points p is a special case of a translation, and also a special case of a rotation. It is the ...

  6. Euclidean group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_group

    Glide reflections with translation by the same distance are in the same class. In 3D: Inversions with respect to all points are in the same class. Rotations by the same angle are in the same class. Rotations about an axis combined with translation along that axis are in the same class if the angle is the same and the translation distance is the ...

  7. Translation plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translation_plane

    In mathematics, a translation plane is a projective plane which admits a certain group of symmetries (described below). Along with the Hughes planes and the Figueroa planes, translation planes are among the most well-studied of the known non-Desarguesian planes, and the vast majority of known non-Desarguesian planes are either translation planes, or can be obtained from a translation plane via ...

  8. Translation of axes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translation_of_axes

    In mathematics, a translation of axes in two dimensions is a mapping from an xy-Cartesian coordinate system to an x'y'-Cartesian coordinate system in which the x' axis is parallel to the x axis and k units away, and the y' axis is parallel to the y axis and h units away.

  9. Motion (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_(geometry)

    In geometry, a motion is an isometry of a metric space. For instance, a plane equipped with the Euclidean distance metric is a metric space in which a mapping associating congruent figures is a motion. [1] More generally, the term motion is a synonym for surjective isometry in metric geometry, [2] including elliptic geometry and hyperbolic ...
