  2. Half-space (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Half-space_(geometry)

    A half-space can be either open or closed. An open half-space is either of the two open sets produced by the subtraction of a hyperplane from the affine space. A closed half-space is the union of an open half-space and the hyperplane that defines it. The open (closed) upper half-space is the half-space of all (x 1, x 2, ..., x n) such that x n > 0

  3. Upper half-plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upper_half-plane

    ⁠ The lower half-plane is the set of points ⁠ (,) ⁠ with ⁠ < ⁠ instead. Arbitrary oriented half-planes can be obtained via a planar rotation . Half-planes are an example of two-dimensional half-space .

  4. Poincaré half-plane model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poincaré_half-plane_model

    The metric of the model on the half-plane, { , >}, is: = + ()where s measures the length along a (possibly curved) line. The straight lines in the hyperbolic plane (geodesics for this metric tensor, i.e., curves which minimize the distance) are represented in this model by circular arcs perpendicular to the x-axis (half-circles whose centers are on the x-axis) and straight vertical rays ...

  5. Half-space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Half-space

    Half-space (geometry), either of the two parts into which a plane divides Euclidean space (Poincaré) Half-space model, a model of hyperbolic geometry using a Euclidean half-space; Siegel upper half-space, a set of complex matrices with positive definite imaginary part; Half-space (punctuation), a spacing character half the width of a regular space

  6. Mental rotation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mental_rotation

    Example problem based on Shepard & Metzlar's "Mental Rotation Task": are these two three-dimensional shapes identical when rotated? Mental rotation is the ability to rotate mental representations of two-dimensional and three-dimensional objects as it is related to the visual representation of such rotation within the human mind. [1]

  7. 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.

  8. Right half-plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_half-plane

    In complex analysis, the (open) right half-plane is the set of all points in the complex plane whose real part is strictly positive, that is, ...

  9. Siegel modular form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siegel_modular_form

    The complex manifolds constructed in the theory of Siegel modular forms are Siegel modular varieties, which are basic models for what a moduli space for abelian varieties (with some extra level structure) should be and are constructed as quotients of the Siegel upper half-space rather than the upper half-plane by discrete groups.
