  2. Ternary operation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ternary_operation

    In mathematics, a ternary operation is an n-ary operation with n = 3. A ternary operation on a set A takes any given three elements of A and combines them to form a single element of A . In computer science , a ternary operator is an operator that takes three arguments as input and returns one output.

  3. Planar ternary ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planar_ternary_ring

    A planar ternary ring (PTR) or ternary field is special type of ternary system used by Marshall Hall [1] to construct projective planes by means of coordinates. A planar ternary ring is not a ring in the traditional sense, but any field gives a planar ternary ring where the operation T {\displaystyle T} is defined by T ( a , b , c ) = a b + c ...

  4. Apollonian network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollonian_network

    An Apollonian network may be formed, starting from a single triangle embedded in the Euclidean plane, by repeatedly selecting a triangular face of the embedding, adding a new vertex inside the face, and connecting the new vertex to each vertex of the face containing it. In this way, the triangle containing the new vertex is subdivided into ...

  5. Affine geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affine_geometry

    The first non-Desarguesian plane was noted by David Hilbert in his Foundations of Geometry. [13] The Moulton plane is a standard illustration. In order to provide a context for such geometry as well as those where Desargues theorem is valid, the concept of a ternary ring was developed by Marshall Hall.

  6. CC system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CC_system

    A CC system may be defined from any set of points in the Euclidean plane, with no three of the points collinear, by including in the relation a triple pqr of distinct points whenever the triple lists these three points in counterclockwise order around the triangle that they form.

  7. Euclidean plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_plane

    In mathematics, a Euclidean plane is a Euclidean space of dimension two, denoted or . It is a geometric space in which two real numbers are required to determine the position of each point . It is an affine space , which includes in particular the concept of parallel lines .

  8. Triple product - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triple_product

    In geometry and algebra, the triple product is a product of three 3-dimensional vectors, usually Euclidean vectors.The name "triple product" is used for two different products, the scalar-valued scalar triple product and, less often, the vector-valued vector triple product.

  9. Voronoi diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voronoi_diagram

    Let H = {h 1, h 2, ..., h k} be the convex hull of P; then the farthest-point Voronoi diagram is a subdivision of the plane into k cells, one for each point in H, with the property that a point q lies in the cell corresponding to a site h i if and only if d(q, h i) > d(q, p j) for each p j ∈ S with h i ≠ p j, where d(p, q) is the Euclidean ...
