On Linear Polygon Transformations

On One-Sided Ideals of Rings of Linear Transformations

From Polygons to Ultradiscrete Painlevé Equations

The rays of tropical genus one curves are constrained in a way that defines a bounded polygon. When we relax this constraint, the resulting curves do not close, giving rise to a system of spiraling polygons. The piecewise linear transformations that preserve the forms of those rays form tropical rational presentations of groups of affine Weyl type. We present a selection of spiraling polygons w...

On p-semilinear transformations

In this paper, we introduce $p$-semilinear transformations for linear algebras over a field ${bf F}$ of positive characteristic $p$, discuss initially the elementary properties of $p$-semilinear transformations, make use of it to give some characterizations of linear algebras over a field ${bf F}$ of positive characteristic $p$. Moreover, we find a one-to-one correspondence between $p$-semiline...

Schwarz-Christoffel transformations

It is helpful to have available systematic ways to find a variety useful conformal mappings. Our text treats one such method: bilinear transformations. Here we study a second: Schwarz-Christoffel transformations. These are discussed in many references; I recommend particularly [1], a lovely book on complex variable theory which has a decided applied slant. The Schwarz-Christoffel transformation...

Parameterizing N-Holed Tori

We define a parameterization for an n-holed tori based on the hyperbolic polygon. We model the domain using a manifold with 2n+ 2 charts, and linear fractional transformations for transition functions. We embed the manifold using standard spline techniques to produce a surface.
