Elliptic geometry — (sometimes known as Riemannian geometry) is a non Euclidean geometry, in which, given a line L and a point p outside L, there exists no line parallel to L passing through p.Elliptic geometry, like hyperbolic geometry, violates Euclid s parallel… … Wikipedia
Elliptic coordinates — are a two dimensional orthogonal coordinate system in which the coordinate lines are confocal ellipses and hyperbolae. The two foci F {1} and F {2} are generally taken to be fixed at a and+a, respectively, on the x axis of the Cartesian… … Wikipedia
Elliptic integral — In integral calculus, elliptic integrals originally arose in connection with the problem of giving the arc length of an ellipse. They were first studied by Giulio Fagnano and Leonhard Euler. Modern mathematics defines an elliptic integral as any… … Wikipedia
Elliptic orbit — A small body in space orbits a large one (like a planet around the sun) along an elliptical path, with the large body being located at one of the ellipse foci … Wikipedia
Elliptic boundary value problem — In mathematics, an elliptic boundary value problem is a special kind of boundary value problem which can be thought of as the stable state of an evolution problem. For example, the Dirichlet problem for the Laplacian gives the eventual… … Wikipedia
Elliptic functions — Function Func tion, n. [L. functio, fr. fungi to perform, execute, akin to Skr. bhuj to enjoy, have the use of: cf. F. fonction. Cf. {Defunct}.] 1. The act of executing or performing any duty, office, or calling; performance. In the function of… … The Collaborative International Dictionary of English
Jacobi's elliptic functions — In mathematics, the Jacobi elliptic functions are a set of basic elliptic functions, and auxiliary theta functions, that have historical importance with also many features that show up important structure, and have direct relevance to some… … 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
