Algebraic curves

Moment curve

In geometry, the moment curve is an algebraic curve in d-dimensional Euclidean space given by the set of points with Cartesian coordinates of the form In the Euclidean plane, the moment curve is a parabola, and in three-dimensional space it is a twisted cubic. Its closure in projective space is the rational normal curve. Moment curves have been used for several applications in discrete geometry including cyclic polytopes, the no-three-in-line problem, and a geometric proof of the chromatic number of Kneser graphs.

What is... an elliptic curve?

In this talk, we will define elliptic curves and, more importantly, we will try to motivate why they are central to modern number theory. Elliptic curves are ubiquitous not only in number theory, but also in algebraic geometry, complex analysis, cryptography, physics, and beyond. They were

What is the velocity of the particle at a given time from graph

Keywords 👉 Learn how to solve particle motion problems. Particle motion problems are usually modeled using functions. Now, when the function modeling the position of the particle is given with respect to the time, we find the speed function of the particle by differentiating the function

We say a continuous injective map from a topological space to k-dimensional euclidean space is simplex-preserving if the image of each set of at most k+1 distinct points is affinely independent. We will describe how simplex-preserving maps can be useful in the study of Čech and Vietoris–Ri
