Karyotype analysis and new chromosome number reports for nine Vicia species in Iran

This study concerns diploid chromosome numbers and karyotype analysis of nine species belonging to four sections (Vicilla, Cracca, Variegata and Anatropostylia) of the subgenus Vicilla of the genus Vicia (Fabaceae). The chromosome numbers of Vicia alpestris subsp. hypoleuca, V. aucheri, V. ciceroideae, V. gariensis, V. iranica, V. koeieana, V. rechingeri, V. sojakii and V. venulosa are reported...

Virtual Models of Conic Sections

People know and use conic sections for a long time. They observe these curves in many situations: the parabolic trajectory of a thrown stone, the circular waves when the stone falls in calm water, and the elliptical shadows of round objects during sunsets (see Fig. 1). Conic sections were and still are one of the most favorite objects of mathematical study and education. Students spend hours in...

Wavelets on the Two-Sphere and other Conic Sections

We survey the construction of the continuous wavelet transform (CWT) on the two-sphere. Then we discuss the discretization of the spherical CWT, obtaining various types of discrete frames. Finally we give some indications on the construction of a CWT on other conic sections.

Drawing Lines and Conic Sections using Method of Deviation

Method of deviation was introduced in [1] for drawing implicit curves. This paper develops algorithms for drawing lines and conic sections using method of deviation. All computations are performed in integer mode. The lines and conic sections drawn are compared with those drawn using mid point algorithm.

Computing All Conic Sections in Torus and Natural Quadric Intersections

Conic sections embedded in a torus must be circles of special types: (i) proole circles, (ii) cross-sectional circles , and (iii) Yvone-Villarceau circles. Based on this classiication, we present eecient and robust geometric algorithms that detect and compute all degenerate conic sections (circles) in torus/plane and torus/natural-quadric intersections. 2 Introduction Simple surfaces (such as p...

Conic Sections through Five Points

In the so-called conformal model of Euclidean space of geometric algebra, circles receive a very elegant description by the outer product of three general points of that circle, forming what is called a tri-vector. Because circles are a special kind of conic section, the question arises, whether in general some kind of third order outer product of five points on a conic section (or certain line...
