  2. List of common coordinate transformations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_common_coordinate...

    As φ has a range of 360° the same considerations as in polar (2 dimensional) coordinates apply whenever an arctangent of it is taken. θ has a range of 180°, running from 0° to 180°, and does not pose any problem when calculated from an arccosine, but beware for an arctangent.

  3. Affine transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affine_transformation

    Let X be an affine space over a field k, and V be its associated vector space. An affine transformation is a bijection f from X onto itself that is an affine map; this means that a linear map g from V to V is well defined by the equation () = (); here, as usual, the subtraction of two points denotes the free vector from the second point to the first one, and "well-defined" means that ...

  4. Fundamental polygon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamental_polygon

    In the case of genus one, a fundamental convex polygon is sought for the action by translation of Λ = Z a ⊕ Z b on R 2 = C where a and b are linearly independent over R. (After performing a real linear transformation on R 2, it can be assumed if necessary that Λ = Z 2 = Z + Z i; for a genus one Riemann surface it can be taken to have the form Λ = Z 2 = Z + Z ω, with Im ω > 0.)

  5. Active and passive transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_and_passive...

    Geometric transformations can be distinguished into two types: active or alibi transformations which change the physical position of a set of points relative to a fixed frame of reference or coordinate system (alibi meaning "being somewhere else at the same time"); and passive or alias transformations which leave points fixed but change the ...

  7. Legendre transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legendre_transformation

    The function () is defined on the interval [,].For a given , the difference () takes the maximum at ′.Thus, the Legendre transformation of () is () = ′ (′).. In mathematics, the Legendre transformation (or Legendre transform), first introduced by Adrien-Marie Legendre in 1787 when studying the minimal surface problem, [1] is an involutive transformation on real-valued functions that are ...

  8. Galilean transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galilean_transformation

    In physics, a Galilean transformation is used to transform between the coordinates of two reference frames which differ only by constant relative motion within the constructs of Newtonian physics. These transformations together with spatial rotations and translations in space and time form the inhomogeneous Galilean group (assumed throughout ...

  9. Möbius transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Möbius_transformation

    Möbius transformations can be more generally defined in spaces of dimension n > 2 as the bijective conformal orientation-preserving maps from the n-sphere to the n-sphere. Such a transformation is the most general form of conformal mapping of a domain.
