Pseudo-Euclidean space — A pseudo Euclidean space is a finite dimensional real vector space together with a non degenerate indefinite quadratic form. Such a quadratic form can, after a change of coordinates, be written as : q(x) = left(x 1^2+cdots + x k^2 ight) left(x… … Wikipedia
Non-Euclidean geometry — Behavior of lines with a common perpendicular in each of the three types of geometry Non Euclidean geometry is the term used to refer to two specific geometries which are, loosely speaking, obtained by negating the Euclidean parallel postulate,… … Wikipedia
Euclidean space — Every point in three dimensional Euclidean space is determined by three coordinates. In mathematics, Euclidean space is the Euclidean plane and three dimensional space of Euclidean geometry, as well as the generalizations of these notions to… … Wikipedia
History of geometry — Geometry (Greek γεωμετρία ; geo = earth, metria = measure) arose as the field of knowledge dealing with spatial relationships. Geometry was one of the two fields of pre modern mathematics, the other being the study of numbers. Classic geometry… … Wikipedia
Pseudo-Riemannian manifold — In differential geometry, a pseudo Riemannian manifold (also called a semi Riemannian manifold) is a generalization of a Riemannian manifold. It is one of many things named after Bernhard Riemann. The key difference between the two is that on a… … Wikipedia
Conformal geometry — In mathematics, conformal geometry is the study of the set of angle preserving (conformal) transformations on a space. In two real dimensions, conformal geometry is precisely the geometry of Riemann surfaces. In more than two dimensions,… … Wikipedia
Differential geometry — A triangle immersed in a saddle shape plane (a hyperbolic paraboloid), as well as two diverging ultraparallel lines. Differential geometry is a mathematical discipline that uses the techniques of differential and integral calculus, as well as… … Wikipedia
Hyperbolic geometry — Lines through a given point P and asymptotic to line R. A triangle immersed in a saddle shape plane (a hyperbolic paraboloid), as well as two diverging ultraparall … Wikipedia
List of differential geometry topics — This is a list of differential geometry topics. See also glossary of differential and metric geometry and list of Lie group topics. Contents 1 Differential geometry of curves and surfaces 1.1 Differential geometry of curves 1.2 Differential… … Wikipedia
Riemannian geometry — Elliptic geometry is also sometimes called Riemannian geometry. Riemannian geometry is the branch of differential geometry that studies Riemannian manifolds, smooth manifolds with a Riemannian metric , i.e. with an inner product on the tangent… … Wikipedia
Differential geometry of curves — This article considers only curves in Euclidean space. Most of the notions presented here have analogues for curves in Riemannian and pseudo Riemannian manifolds. For a discussion of curves in an arbitrary topological space, see the main article… … Wikipedia
