Generalization of Laguerre Geometry
نویسنده
چکیده
The article deals with the relationship between Laguerre geometry and Minkowski sum. This relationship is used to create new geometry based generally on fundamental objects different to closed balls that formed Laguerre geometry. In the end of the article, there is defined also generalization of medial axis transform to the newly defined spaces and proved its uniqueness. The article continues the same called article from Proceedings of 25th Conference on Geometry and Computer Graphics, 2005

The fitting line problem in the laguerre geometry
We address the problem of computing the fitting line of a set of circles in the Laguerre metric, that minimizes the distance to the farthest circle. To solve the fitting line problem we introduce a generalization of the concept of the width of a set of points using the Laguerre metric. We also present an efficient algorithm for finding the fitting line of a set of circles using minimization dia...
متن کاملSome Relations on Laguerre Matrix Polynomials
The main object of this paper is to give a di erent approach to proof of generating matrix functions for Laguerre matrix polynomials. We also obtain the hypergeometric matrix representations, addition theorem, nite summation formula and an integral representation for Laguerre matrix polynomials. We get the relations between Laguerre, Legendre and Hermite matrix polynomials. We get the generatin...
متن کاملLaguerre Geometry of Hypersurfaces in Rn
Laguerre geometry of surfaces in R is given in the book of Blaschke [1], and have been studied by E.Musso and L.Nicolodi [5], [6], [7], B. Palmer [8] and other authors. In this paper we study Laguerre differential geometry of hypersurfaces in Rn. For any umbilical free hypersurface x : M → Rn with non-zero principal curvatures we define a Laguerre invariant metric g on M and a Laguerre invarian...
متن کاملA New Property of Laguerre Functions
Laguerre filters constitute an orthonormal basis for the Hilbert space, for this they are used in system identification and reduced-order modelling. In this paper a new property of Laguerre filters is introduced: it is shown that the system having as transfer function the sum of the first n + 1 functions has all the singular values equals each other. On the basis of this property a generalizati...
متن کاملEdge offset meshes in Laguerre geometry
A mesh M with planar faces is called an edge offset (EO) mesh if there exists a combinatorially equivalent mesh M d such that corresponding edges of M and M d lie on parallel lines of constant distance d. The edges emanating from a vertex of M lie on a right circular cone. Viewing M as set of these vertex cones, we show that the image of M under any Laguerre transformation is again an EO mesh. ...
