    Here is a short video showing the Mandelbrot set being rendered using multithreading and symmetry, but without boundary following: This is a short video showing rendering of a Mandelbrot set using multi-threading and symmetry, but with boundary following turned off.

  3. Midpoint circle algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midpoint_circle_algorithm

    In computer graphics, the midpoint circle algorithm is an algorithm used to determine the points needed for rasterizing a circle. It is a generalization of Bresenham's line algorithm. The algorithm can be further generalized to conic sections. [1] [2] [3]

  4. Poinsot's ellipsoid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poinsot's_ellipsoid

    Secondly, with the vector in the body frame that goes through this point fixed, the body can have any amount of rotation around that vector. So in principle, the body's orientation is some point on a toroidal 2-manifold inside the 3-manifold of all orientations. In general, the object will follow a non-periodic path on this torus, but it may ...

  5. Equivariant map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivariant_map

    For example, a G-set is equivalent to a functor from G to the category of sets, Set, and a linear representation is equivalent to a functor to the category of vector spaces over a field, Vect K. Given two representations, ρ and σ, of G in C , an equivariant map between those representations is simply a natural transformation from ρ to σ.

  6. Bresenham's line algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bresenham's_line_algorithm

    The value of the line function at this midpoint is the sole determinant of which point should be chosen. The adjacent image shows the blue point (2,2) chosen to be on the line with two candidate points in green (3,2) and (3,3). The black point (3, 2.5) is the midpoint between the two candidate points.

  7. Fixed point (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In many fields, equilibria or stability are fundamental concepts that can be described in terms of fixed points. Some examples follow. In projective geometry, a fixed point of a projectivity has been called a double point. [8] [9] In economics, a Nash equilibrium of a game is a fixed point of the game's best response correspondence.

  8. Chernoff face - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chernoff_face

    In 1981, Bernhard Flury and Hans Riedwyl suggested "asymmetrical" Chernoff faces; [3] since a face has vertical symmetry (around the y axis), the left side of the face is identical to the right and is basically wasted space – a point also made by Tufte. [4]

  9. Symmetry (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

    A drawing of a butterfly with bilateral symmetry, with left and right sides as mirror images of each other.. In geometry, an object has symmetry if there is an operation or transformation (such as translation, scaling, rotation or reflection) that maps the figure/object onto itself (i.e., the object has an invariance under the transform).
