  2. Intersection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersection

    The intersection (red) of two disks (white and red with black boundaries). The circle (black) intersects the line (purple) in two points (red). The disk (yellow) intersects the line in the line segment between the two red points. The intersection of D and E is shown in grayish purple. The intersection of A with any of B, C, D, or E is the empty ...

  3. Intersection (set theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersection_(set_theory)

    So the intersection of the empty family should be the universal set (the identity element for the operation of intersection), [4] but in standard set theory, the universal set does not exist. However, when restricted to the context of subsets of a given fixed set X {\displaystyle X} , the notion of the intersection of an empty collection of ...

  4. Intersection (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

    The intersection points are: (−0.8587, 0.7374, −0.6332), (0.8587, 0.7374, 0.6332). A line–sphere intersection is a simple special case. Like the case of a line and a plane, the intersection of a curve and a surface in general position consists of discrete points, but a curve may be partly or totally contained in a surface.

  5. Line–line intersection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line–line_intersection

    There will be an intersection if 0 ≤ t ≤ 1 and 0 ≤ u ≤ 1. The intersection point falls within the first line segment if 0 ≤ t ≤ 1, and it falls within the second line segment if 0 ≤ u ≤ 1. These inequalities can be tested without the need for division, allowing rapid determination of the existence of any line segment ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DE-9IM

    The Dimensionally Extended 9-Intersection Model (DE-9IM) is a topological model and a standard used to describe the spatial relations of two regions (two geometries in two-dimensions, R 2), in geometry, point-set topology, geospatial topology, and fields related to computer spatial analysis.

  7. Intersection (disambiguation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersection_(disambiguation)

    Intersection for the Arts, oldest alternative non-profit art space in San Francisco; Intersection in mathematics, including: Intersection (set theory), the set of elements common to some collection of sets; Intersection (geometry) Intersection theory; Intersection (road), a place where two roads meet (line-line intersection)

  8. Transversality (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    The notion of transversality of a pair of submanifolds is easily extended to transversality of a submanifold and a map to the ambient manifold, or to a pair of maps to the ambient manifold, by asking whether the pushforwards of the tangent spaces along the preimage of points of intersection of the images generate the entire tangent space of the ambient manifold. [2]

  9. General position - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_position

    The intersection of two cubics, which is = points (by Bézout's theorem), is special in that nine points in general position are contained in a unique cubic, while if they are contained in two cubics they in fact are contained in a pencil (1-parameter linear system) of cubics, whose equations are the projective linear combinations of the ...
