  2. Four-dimensional space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-dimensional_space

    Four-dimensional space (4D) is the mathematical extension of the concept of three-dimensional space (3D). Three-dimensional space is the simplest possible abstraction of the observation that one needs only three numbers, called dimensions , to describe the sizes or locations of objects in the everyday world.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_shapes

    The elements of a polytope can be considered according to either their own dimensionality or how many dimensions "down" they are from the body.

  4. Five-dimensional space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five-dimensional_space

    The first approach is space-time-matter, which utilizes an unrestricted group of 5D coordinate transforms to derive new solutions of the Einstein's field equations that agree with the corresponding classical solutions in 4D spacetime. [8] Another 5D representation describes quantum physics from a thermal-space-time ensemble perspective and ...

  5. Three-dimensional space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-dimensional_space

    In geometry, a three-dimensional space (3D space, 3-space or, rarely, tri-dimensional space) is a mathematical space in which three values (coordinates) are required to determine the position of a point. Most commonly, it is the three-dimensional Euclidean space, that is, the Euclidean space of dimension three, which models physical space.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolab

    Symbolab is an answer engine [1] that provides step-by-step solutions to mathematical problems in a range of subjects. [2] It was originally developed by Israeli start-up company EqsQuest Ltd., under whom it was released for public use in 2011. In 2020, the company was acquired by American educational technology website Course Hero. [3] [4]

  7. Rotations in 4-dimensional Euclidean space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotations_in_4-dimensional...

    Rotations in 3D space are made mathematically much more tractable by the use of spherical coordinates. Any rotation in 3D can be characterized by a fixed axis of rotation and an invariant plane perpendicular to that axis. Without loss of generality, we can take the xy-plane as the invariant plane and the z-axis as the fixed axis.

  8. Kaluza–Klein theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaluza–Klein_theory

    The five-dimensional (5D) theory developed in three steps. The original hypothesis came from Theodor Kaluza, who sent his results to Albert Einstein in 1919 [2] and published them in 1921. [3] Kaluza presented a purely classical extension of general relativity to 5D, with a metric tensor of 15 components.

  9. 5-cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5-cell

    In geometry, the 5-cell is the convex 4-polytope with Schläfli symbol {3,3,3}. It is a 5-vertex four-dimensional object bounded by five tetrahedral cells. It is also known as a C 5, hypertetrahedron, pentachoron, [1] pentatope, pentahedroid, [2] tetrahedral pyramid, or 4-simplex (Coxeter's polytope), [3] the simplest possible convex 4-polytope, and is analogous to the tetrahedron in three ...
