Spirals | Plane curves

Lituus (mathematics)

In mathematics, a lituus is a spiral with polar equation where k is any non-zero constant.Thus, the angle ฮธ is inversely proportional to the square of the radius r. This spiral, which has two branches depending on the sign of r, is asymptotic to the x-axis. Its points of inflexion are at The curve was named for the ancient Roman lituus by Roger Cotes in a collection of papers entitled Harmonia Mensurarum (1722), which was published six years after his death.
