The Intersection Conics of Six Straight Lines
نویسنده
چکیده
We investigate and visualize the manifold M of planes that intersect six straight lines of real projective three space in points of a conic section. It is dual to the apex-locus of the cones of second order that have six given tangents. In general M is algebraic of dimension two and class eight. It has 30 single and six double lines. We consider special cases, derive an algebraic equation of the manifold and give an efficient algorithm for the computation of solution planes.

The Manifold of Planes that Intersect Four Straight Lines in Points of a Circle
In this text, we study the set L of planes in three-dimensional euclidean space E3 that intersect four straight lines in points of a circle. The manifold of solution planes L is, in general, of dimension two. Furthermore, there are numerous ways of seeing that it is algebraic. We will give two independent proofs for that. Both also yield the class of L (it is seven). Our investigations heavily ...
متن کاملHypercatadioptric line images for 3D orientation and image rectification
In central catadioptric systems 3D lines are projected into conics. In this paper we present a new approach to extract conics in the raw catadioptric image, which correspond to projected straight lines in the scene. Using the internal calibration and two image points we are able to compute analytically these conics which we name hypercatadioptric line images. We obtain the error propagation fro...
متن کاملRectifiable Pencils of Conics
We describe analytic pencils of conics passing through the origin in C that can be mapped to straight lines locally near the origin by an analytic diffeomorphism. Under a minor non-degeneracy assumption, we prove that in a pencil with this property, almost all conics have 3 points of tangency with the same algebraic curve of class 3 (i. e. a curve projectively dual to a cubic). 2000 Math. Subj....
متن کاملElementary Constructions for Conics in Hyperbolic and Elliptic Planes
In the Euclidean plane there are well-known constructions of points and tangents of e.g. an ellipse c based on the given axes of c, which make use of the Apollonius definition of c via its focal points or via two perspective affinities (de la Hire’s construction). Even there is no parallel relation neither in a hyperbolic plane nor in an elliptic plane it is still possible to modify many of the...
متن کاملOPTIMAL NOZZLE SHAPES OF CO2-N2-H2O GASDYNAMIC LASERS
In an axisymmetric CO2-N2-H2O gas dynamic laser, let ? denote the intersection of the vertical plane of symmetry with the upper part of the (supersonic) nozzle. To obtain a maximal small signal gain, some authors have tested several families of curves for ?. To find the most general solution for ?, an application of Pontryagin’s principle led to the conjuncture that the optimal ? must consist o...
