I am new in this group. I am a Spanish math teacher in a secondary school and I have a question about a curve. Let P mover on the ellipse x^2/a^2+y^2/b^2 = 1...
1) Is there a relationship between the focus of a parabola, its latus rectum, and its evolute? 2) The evolute of the spiral x= cost + tsint, y= sint - tsint...
... by definition there is a relation between the focus and the latus rectum of a parabola. As to focus and its evolute, i suppose so, if not direct. ... the...
1) Is there a relationship between the focus of a parabola, its latus rectum, and its evolute? The 1.5 power curve has a cusp at focus. 2) The evolute of the...
An intersting 2D locus, however, I don't know its name. Perhaps the parameteric form is simpler. It is not difficult to derive a relation between th and an...

There was a toy that had a virtual pig floating in air. There was an actual pig at the base of the toy and his virtual image was at the focus of a parabolic...
Breather breathtaking indeed !! Allow me acomment about related Three soliton surface with K= -1. One sees K > 0 areas in the peripheral regions of the...
Better to say Reflector dishes instead of reflecting disks. The TV dish receiver is not necessarily parabolic, since the focus is below the center of the dish...
excuse my ignorance...(for, this is really a difficult subject :) what exactly is a soliton? Xah Breather breathtaking indeed !! Allow me acomment about...
... I took your advice. ... if that means the surface is a surface of revolution. If so, the focus must be in the center. But that TV disk has the receiving...

I am looking for literature on the curve, "Alysoid". If anyone has come across any book or a publication in which these curves are described, please let me...

Hi, May I ask a question that has bugged me for some time. I had a wall plack which was an ordinate and abscissa consisting of evenly spaced nails embedded in...
At one instant let the x,y intercepts be (a,b).The constant sum of ix,y, intercepts is a+ b = c ; It is a parabola passing through (a+b,0), (0,a+b) tangential...

Interesting. Any special properties?(chirality etc.) Seems to be a self-intersecting surface. PlotPoints->{41,21} increased surface smoothness of g1 and g2....
