  2. Euclidean tilings by convex regular polygons - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_tilings_by...

    For example: 3 6; 3 6; 3 4.6, tells us there are 3 vertices with 2 different vertex types, so this tiling would be classed as a ‘3-uniform (2-vertex types)’ tiling. Broken down, 3 6 ; 3 6 (both of different transitivity class), or (3 6 ) 2 , tells us that there are 2 vertices (denoted by the superscript 2), each with 6 equilateral 3-sided ...

  3. Curvilinear coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curvilinear_coordinates

    A vector v (red) represented by • a vector basis (yellow, left: e 1, e 2, e 3), tangent vectors to coordinate curves (black) and • a covector basis or cobasis (blue, right: e 1, e 2, e 3), normal vectors to coordinate surfaces (grey) in general (not necessarily orthogonal) curvilinear coordinates (q 1, q 2, q 3). The basis and cobasis do ...

  4. Polyhedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyhedron

    This class may be subdivided into a regular, quasi-regular, or semi-regular polyhedron, and may be convex or starry. The dual is face-transitive and has regular vertices but is not necessarily vertex-transitive. The uniform polyhedra and their duals are traditionally classified according to their degree of symmetry, and whether they are convex ...

  5. Differential geometry of surfaces - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_geometry_of...

    Although conventions vary in their precise definition, these form a general class of subsets of three-dimensional Euclidean space (ℝ 3) which capture part of the familiar notion of "surface." By analyzing the class of curves which lie on such a surface, and the degree to which the surfaces force them to curve in ℝ 3 , one can associate to ...

  6. Euler's constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_constant

    The area of the blue region converges to Euler's constant. Euler's constant (sometimes called the Euler–Mascheroni constant) is a mathematical constant, usually denoted by the lowercase Greek letter gamma (γ), defined as the limiting difference between the harmonic series and the natural logarithm, denoted here by log:

  7. Determinant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Determinant

    In mathematics, the determinant is a scalar-valued function of the entries of a square matrix.The determinant of a matrix A is commonly denoted det(A), det A, or | A |.Its value characterizes some properties of the matrix and the linear map represented, on a given basis, by the matrix.
