Trisectrix
In geometry, a trisectrix is a curve which can be used to trisect an arbitrary angle with ruler and compass and this curve as an additional tool. Such a method falls outside those allowed by compass and straightedge constructions, so they do not contradict the well known theorem which states that an arbitrary angle cannot be trisected with that type of construction. There is a variety of such curves and the methods used to construct an angle trisector differ according to the curve. Examples include:
• Limaçon trisectrix (some sources refer to this curve as simply the trisectrix.)
• Trisectrix of Maclaurin
• Equilateral trefoil (a.k.a. Longchamps' Trisectrix)
• Tschirnhausen cubic (a.k.a. Catalan's trisectrix and L'Hôpital's cubic)
• Durer's folium
• Cubic parabola
• Hyperbola with eccentricity 2
• Rose curve specified by a sinusoid with angular frequency of one-third.
• Parabola
A related concept is a sectrix, which is a curve which can be used to divide an arbitrary angle by any integer. Examples include:
• Archimedean Spiral
• Quadratrix of Hippias
• Sectrix of Maclaurin
• Sectrix of Ceva
• Sectrix of Delanges

Trisectrix of Maclaurin
In algebraic geometry, the trisectrix of Maclaurin is a cubic plane curve notable for its trisectrix property, meaning it can be used to trisect an angle. It can be defined as locus of the point of intersection of two lines, each rotating at a uniform rate about separate points, so that the ratio of the rates of rotation is 1:3 and the lines initially coincide with the line between the two points. A generalization of this construction is called a sectrix of Maclaurin. The curve is named after Colin Maclaurin who investigated the curve in 1742.
Equations
Let two lines rotate about the points $P=(0,0)$ and $P_{1}=(a,0)$ so that when the line rotating about $P$ has angle $\theta $ with the x axis, the rotating about $P_{1}$ has angle $3\theta $. Let $Q$ be the point of intersection, then the angle formed by the lines at $Q$ is $2\theta $. By the law of sines,
${r \over \sin 3\theta }={a \over \sin 2\theta }\!$
so the equation in polar coordinates is (up to translation and rotation)
$r=a{\frac {\sin 3\theta }{\sin 2\theta }}={a \over 2}{\frac {4\cos ^{2}\theta -1}{\cos \theta }}={a \over 2}(4\cos \theta -\sec \theta )\!$.
The curve is therefore a member of the Conchoid of de Sluze family.
In Cartesian coordinates the equation of this curve is
$2x(x^{2}+y^{2})=a(3x^{2}-y^{2})\!$.
If the origin is moved to (a, 0) then a derivation similar to that given above shows that the equation of the curve in polar coordinates becomes
$r=2a\cos {\theta \over 3}\!$
making it an example of a limacon with a loop.
The trisection property
Given an angle $\phi $, draw a ray from $(a,0)$ whose angle with the $x$-axis is $\phi $. Draw a ray from the origin to the point where the first ray intersects the curve. Then, by the construction of the curve, the angle between the second ray and the $x$-axis is $\phi /3$.
Notable points and features
The curve has an x-intercept at $3a \over 2$ and a double point at the origin. The vertical line $x={-{a \over 2}}$ is an asymptote. The curve intersects the line x = a, or the point corresponding to the trisection of a right angle, at $(a,{\pm {1 \over {\sqrt {3}}}a})$. As a nodal cubic, it is of genus zero.
Relationship to other curves
The trisectrix of Maclaurin can be defined from conic sections in three ways. Specifically:
• It is the inverse with respect to the unit circle of the hyperbola
$2x=a(3x^{2}-y^{2})$.
• It is cissoid of the circle
$(x+a)^{2}+y^{2}=a^{2}$
and the line $x={a \over 2}$ relative to the origin.
• It is the pedal with respect to the origin of the parabola
$y^{2}=2a(x-{\tfrac {3}{2}}a)$.
In addition:
• The inverse with respect to the point $(a,0)$ is the Limaçon trisectrix.
• The trisectrix of Maclaurin is related to the Folium of Descartes by affine transformation.

Bispectrum
In mathematics, in the area of statistical analysis, the bispectrum is a statistic used to search for nonlinear interactions.
Definitions
The Fourier transform of the second-order cumulant, i.e., the autocorrelation function, is the traditional power spectrum.
The Fourier transform of C3(t1, t2) (third-order cumulant-generating function) is called the bispectrum or bispectral density.
Calculation
Applying the convolution theorem allows fast calculation of the bispectrum: $B(f_{1},f_{2})=F(f_{1})\cdot F(f_{2})\cdot F^{*}(f_{1}+f_{2})$, where $F$ denotes the Fourier transform of the signal, and $F^{*}$ its conjugate.
Applications
Bispectrum and bicoherence may be applied to the case of non-linear interactions of a continuous spectrum of propagating waves in one dimension.[1]
Bispectral measurements have been carried out for EEG signals monitoring.[2] It was also shown that bispectra characterize differences between families of musical instruments.[3]
In seismology, signals rarely have adequate duration for making sensible bispectral estimates from time averages.
Bispectral analysis describes observations made at two wavelengths. It is often used by scientists to analyze elemental makeup of a planetary atmosphere by analyzing the amount of light reflected and received through various color filters. By combining and removing two filters, much can be gleaned from only two filters. Through modern computerized interpolation, a third virtual filter can be created to recreate true color photographs that, while not particularly useful for scientific analysis, are popular for public display in textbooks and fund raising campaigns.
Bispectral analysis can also be used to analyze interactions between wave patterns and tides on Earth.[4]
A form of bispectral analysis called the bispectral index is applied to EEG waveforms to monitor depth of anesthesia.[5]
Biphase (phase of polyspectrum) can be used for detection of phase couplings,[6] noise reduction of polharmonic (particularly, speech [7]) signal analysis.
Generalizations
Bispectra fall in the category of higher-order spectra, or polyspectra and provide supplementary information to the power spectrum. The third order polyspectrum (bispectrum) is the easiest to compute, and hence the most popular.
A statistic defined analogously is the bispectral coherency or bicoherence.
Trispectrum
The Fourier transform of C4 (t1, t2, t3) (fourth-order cumulant-generating function) is called the trispectrum or trispectral density.
The trispectrum T(f1,f2,f3) falls into the category of higher-order spectra, or polyspectra, and provides supplementary information to the power spectrum. The trispectrum is a three-dimensional construct. The symmetries of the trispectrum allow a much reduced support set to be defined, contained within the following vertices, where 1 is the Nyquist frequency. (0,0,0) (1/2,1/2,-1/2) (1/3,1/3,0) (1/2,0,0) (1/4,1/4,1/4). The plane containing the points (1/6,1/6,1/6) (1/4,1/4,0) (1/2,0,0) divides this volume into an inner and an outer region. A stationary signal will have zero strength (statistically) in the outer region. The trispectrum support is divided into regions by the plane identified above and by the (f1,f2) plane. Each region has different requirements in terms of the bandwidth of signal required for non-zero values.
In the same way that the bispectrum identifies contributions to a signal's skewness as a function of frequency triples, the trispectrum identifies contributions to a signal's kurtosis as a function of frequency quadruplets.
The trispectrum has been used to investigate the domains of applicability of maximum kurtosis phase estimation used in the deconvolution of seismic data to find layer structure.

In art
Circle Limit III is a woodcut made in 1959 by Dutch artist M. C. Escher, in which "strings of fish shoot up like rockets from infinitely far away" and then "fall back again whence they came". White curves within the figure, through the middle of each line of fish, divide the plane into squares and triangles in the pattern of the tritetragonal tiling. However, in the tritetragonal tiling, the corresponding curves are chains of hyperbolic line segments, with a slight angle at each vertex, while in Escher's woodcut they appear to be smooth hypercycles.

Construction and coordinates
The truncated 6-cube may be constructed by truncating the vertices of the 6-cube at $1/({\sqrt {2}}+2)$ of the edge length. A regular 5-simplex replaces each original vertex.
The Cartesian coordinates of the vertices of a truncated 6-cube having edge length 2 are the permutations of:
$\left(\pm 1,\ \pm (1+{\sqrt {2}}),\ \pm (1+{\sqrt {2}}),\ \pm (1+{\sqrt {2}}),\ \pm (1+{\sqrt {2}}),\ \pm (1+{\sqrt {2}})\right)$

There are 6 truncations for the 7-cube. Vertices of the truncated 7-cube are located as pairs on the edge of the 7-cube. Vertices of the bitruncated 7-cube are located on the square faces of the 7-cube. Vertices of the tritruncated 7-cube are located inside the cubic cells of the 7-cube. The final three truncations are best expressed relative to the 7-orthoplex.

There are 6 truncations of the 7-orthoplex. Vertices of the truncation 7-orthoplex are located as pairs on the edge of the 7-orthoplex. Vertices of the bitruncated 7-orthoplex are located on the triangular faces of the 7-orthoplex. Vertices of the tritruncated 7-orthoplex are located inside the tetrahedral cells of the 7-orthoplex. The final three truncations are best expressed relative to the 7-cube.

Cubic graph
In the mathematical field of graph theory, a cubic graph is a graph in which all vertices have degree three. In other words, a cubic graph is a 3-regular graph. Cubic graphs are also called trivalent graphs.
Not to be confused with graphs of cubic functions, hypercube graph, cube graph, cubical graph.
A bicubic graph is a cubic bipartite graph.
Symmetry
In 1932, Ronald M. Foster began collecting examples of cubic symmetric graphs, forming the start of the Foster census.[1] Many well-known individual graphs are cubic and symmetric, including the utility graph, the Petersen graph, the Heawood graph, the Möbius–Kantor graph, the Pappus graph, the Desargues graph, the Nauru graph, the Coxeter graph, the Tutte–Coxeter graph, the Dyck graph, the Foster graph and the Biggs–Smith graph. W. T. Tutte classified the symmetric cubic graphs by the smallest integer number s such that each two oriented paths of length s can be mapped to each other by exactly one symmetry of the graph. He showed that s is at most 5, and provided examples of graphs with each possible value of s from 1 to 5.[2]
Semi-symmetric cubic graphs include the Gray graph (the smallest semi-symmetric cubic graph), the Ljubljana graph, and the Tutte 12-cage.
The Frucht graph is one of the five smallest cubic graphs without any symmetries:[3] it possesses only a single graph automorphism, the identity automorphism.[4]
Coloring and independent sets
According to Brooks' theorem every connected cubic graph other than the complete graph K4 has a vertex coloring with at most three colors. Therefore, every connected cubic graph other than K4 has an independent set of at least n/3 vertices, where n is the number of vertices in the graph: for instance, the largest color class in a 3-coloring has at least this many vertices.
According to Vizing's theorem every cubic graph needs either three or four colors for an edge coloring. A 3-edge-coloring is known as a Tait coloring, and forms a partition of the edges of the graph into three perfect matchings. By Kőnig's line coloring theorem every bicubic graph has a Tait coloring.
The bridgeless cubic graphs that do not have a Tait coloring are known as snarks. They include the Petersen graph, Tietze's graph, the Blanuša snarks, the flower snark, the double-star snark, the Szekeres snark and the Watkins snark. There is an infinite number of distinct snarks.[5]
Topology and geometry
Cubic graphs arise naturally in topology in several ways. For example, if one considers a graph to be a 1-dimensional CW complex, cubic graphs are generic in that most 1-cell attaching maps are disjoint from the 0-skeleton of the graph. Cubic graphs are also formed as the graphs of simple polyhedra in three dimensions, polyhedra such as the regular dodecahedron with the property that three faces meet at every vertex.
An arbitrary graph embedding on a two-dimensional surface may be represented as a cubic graph structure known as a graph-encoded map. In this structure, each vertex of a cubic graph represents a flag of the embedding, a mutually incident triple of a vertex, edge, and face of the surface. The three neighbors of each flag are the three flags that may be obtained from it by changing one of the members of this mutually incident triple and leaving the other two members unchanged.[6]
Hamiltonicity
There has been much research on Hamiltonicity of cubic graphs. In 1880, P.G. Tait conjectured that every cubic polyhedral graph has a Hamiltonian circuit. William Thomas Tutte provided a counter-example to Tait's conjecture, the 46-vertex Tutte graph, in 1946. In 1971, Tutte conjectured that all bicubic graphs are Hamiltonian. However, Joseph Horton provided a counterexample on 96 vertices, the Horton graph.[7] Later, Mark Ellingham constructed two more counterexamples: the Ellingham–Horton graphs.[8][9] Barnette's conjecture, a still-open combination of Tait's and Tutte's conjecture, states that every bicubic polyhedral graph is Hamiltonian. When a cubic graph is Hamiltonian, LCF notation allows it to be represented concisely.
If a cubic graph is chosen uniformly at random among all n-vertex cubic graphs, then it is very likely to be Hamiltonian: the proportion of the n-vertex cubic graphs that are Hamiltonian tends to one in the limit as n goes to infinity.[10]
David Eppstein conjectured that every n-vertex cubic graph has at most 2n/3 (approximately 1.260n) distinct Hamiltonian cycles, and provided examples of cubic graphs with that many cycles.[11] The best proven estimate for the number of distinct Hamiltonian cycles is $O({1.276}^{n})$.[12]
Other properties
Unsolved problem in mathematics:
What is the largest possible pathwidth of an $n$-vertex cubic graph?
(more unsolved problems in mathematics)
The pathwidth of any n-vertex cubic graph is at most n/6. The best known lower bound on the pathwidth of cubic graphs is 0.082n. It is not known how to reduce this gap between this lower bound and the n/6 upper bound.[13]
It follows from the handshaking lemma, proven by Leonhard Euler in 1736 as part of the first paper on graph theory, that every cubic graph has an even number of vertices.
Petersen's theorem states that every cubic bridgeless graph has a perfect matching.[14] Lovász and Plummer conjectured that every cubic bridgeless graph has an exponential number of perfect matchings. The conjecture was recently proved, showing that every cubic bridgeless graph with n vertices has at least 2n/3656 perfect matchings.[15]
Algorithms and complexity
Several researchers have studied the complexity of exponential time algorithms restricted to cubic graphs. For instance, by applying dynamic programming to a path decomposition of the graph, Fomin and Høie showed how to find their maximum independent sets in time 2n/6 + o(n).[13] The travelling salesman problem in cubic graphs can be solved in time O(1.2312n) and polynomial space.[16][17]
Several important graph optimization problems are APX hard, meaning that, although they have approximation algorithms whose approximation ratio is bounded by a constant, they do not have polynomial time approximation schemes whose approximation ratio tends to 1 unless P=NP. These include the problems of finding a minimum vertex cover, maximum independent set, minimum dominating set, and maximum cut.[18] The crossing number (the minimum number of edges which cross in any graph drawing) of a cubic graph is also NP-hard for cubic graphs but may be approximated.[19] The Travelling Salesman Problem on cubic graphs has been proven to be NP-hard to approximate to within any factor less than 1153/1152.[20]

Properties
• An n-component link L ⊂ S3 is an unlink if and only if there exists n disjointly embedded discs Di ⊂ S3 such that L = ∪i∂Di.
• A link with one component is an unlink if and only if it is the unknot.
• The link group of an n-component unlink is the free group on n generators, and is used in classifying Brunnian links.
Examples
• The Hopf link is a simple example of a link with two components that is not an unlink.
• The Borromean rings form a link with three components that is not an unlink; however, any two of the rings considered on their own do form a two-component unlink.
• Taizo Kanenobu has shown that for all n > 1 there exists a hyperbolic link of n components such that any proper sublink is an unlink (a Brunnian link). The Whitehead link and Borromean rings are such examples for n = 2, 3.[1]

Trivial cylinder
In geometry and topology, trivial cylinders are certain pseudoholomorphic curves appearing in certain cylindrical manifolds.
In Floer homology and its variants, chain complexes or differential graded algebras are generated by certain combinations of closed orbits of vector fields. In symplectic Floer homology, one considers the Hamiltonian vector field of a Hamiltonian function on a symplectic manifold; in symplectic field theory, contact homology, and their variants, one considers the Reeb vector field associated to a contact form, or more generally a stable Hamiltonian structure.
The differentials all count some flavor of pseudoholomorphic curves in a manifold with a cylindrical almost-complex structure whose ends at negative infinity are the given collection of closed orbits. For instance, in symplectic Floer homology, one considers the product of the mapping torus of a symplectomorphism with the real numbers; in symplectic field theory, one considers the symplectization of a contact manifold.
The product of a given embedded closed orbit with R is always a pseudoholomorphic curve, and such a curve is called a trivial cylinder. Trivial cylinders do not generally contribute to the aforementioned differentials, but they may appear as components of more complicated curves which do.

Trivial measure
In mathematics, specifically in measure theory, the trivial measure on any measurable space (X, Σ) is the measure μ which assigns zero measure to every measurable set: μ(A) = 0 for all A in Σ.[1]
Properties of the trivial measure
Let μ denote the trivial measure on some measurable space (X, Σ).
• A measure ν is the trivial measure μ if and only if ν(X) = 0.
• μ is an invariant measure (and hence a quasi-invariant measure) for any measurable function f : X → X.
Suppose that X is a topological space and that Σ is the Borel σ-algebra on X.
• μ trivially satisfies the condition to be a regular measure.
• μ is never a strictly positive measure, regardless of (X, Σ), since every measurable set has zero measure.
• Since μ(X) = 0, μ is always a finite measure, and hence a locally finite measure.
• If X is a Hausdorff topological space with its Borel σ-algebra, then μ trivially satisfies the condition to be a tight measure. Hence, μ is also a Radon measure. In fact, it is the vertex of the pointed cone of all non-negative Radon measures on X.
• If X is an infinite-dimensional Banach space with its Borel σ-algebra, then μ is the only measure on (X, Σ) that is locally finite and invariant under all translations of X. See the article There is no infinite-dimensional Lebesgue measure.
• If X is n-dimensional Euclidean space Rn with its usual σ-algebra and n-dimensional Lebesgue measure λn, μ is a singular measure with respect to λn: simply decompose Rn as A = Rn \ {0} and B = {0} and observe that μ(A) = λn(B) = 0.

Trivial representation
In the mathematical field of representation theory, a trivial representation is a representation (V, φ) of a group G on which all elements of G act as the identity mapping of V. A trivial representation of an associative or Lie algebra is a (Lie) algebra representation for which all elements of the algebra act as the zero linear map (endomorphism) which sends every element of V to the zero vector.
For any group or Lie algebra, an irreducible trivial representation always exists over any field, and is one-dimensional, hence unique up to isomorphism. The same is true for associative algebras unless one restricts attention to unital algebras and unital representations.
Although the trivial representation is constructed in such a way as to make its properties seem tautologous, it is a fundamental object of the theory. A subrepresentation is equivalent to a trivial representation, for example, if it consists of invariant vectors; so that searching for such subrepresentations is the whole topic of invariant theory.
The trivial character is the character that takes the value of one for all group elements.

Zero ring
In ring theory, a branch of mathematics, the zero ring[1][2][3][4][5] or trivial ring is the unique ring (up to isomorphism) consisting of one element. (Less commonly, the term "zero ring" is used to refer to any rng of square zero, i.e., a rng in which xy = 0 for all x and y. This article refers to the one-element ring.)

In the category of rings, the zero ring is the terminal object, whereas the ring of integers Z is the initial object.
Definition
The zero ring, denoted {0} or simply 0, consists of the one-element set {0} with the operations + and · defined such that 0 + 0 = 0 and 0 · 0 = 0.
Properties
• The zero ring is the unique ring in which the additive identity 0 and multiplicative identity 1 coincide.[6][7] (Proof: If 1 = 0 in a ring R, then for all r in R, we have r = 1r = 0r = 0. The proof of the last equality is found here.)
• The zero ring is commutative.
• The element 0 in the zero ring is a unit, serving as its own multiplicative inverse.
• The unit group of the zero ring is the trivial group {0}.
• The element 0 in the zero ring is not a zero divisor.
• The only ideal in the zero ring is the zero ideal {0}, which is also the unit ideal, equal to the whole ring. This ideal is neither maximal nor prime.
• The zero ring is generally excluded from fields, while occasionally called as the trivial field. Excluding it agrees with the fact that its zero ideal is not maximal. (When mathematicians speak of the "field with one element", they are referring to a non-existent object, and their intention is to define the category that would be the category of schemes over this object if it existed.)
• The zero ring is generally excluded from integral domains.[8] Whether the zero ring is considered to be a domain at all is a matter of convention, but there are two advantages to considering it not to be a domain. First, this agrees with the definition that a domain is a ring in which 0 is the only zero divisor (in particular, 0 is required to be a zero divisor, which fails in the zero ring). Second, this way, for a positive integer n, the ring Z/nZ is a domain if and only if n is prime, but 1 is not prime.
• For each ring A, there is a unique ring homomorphism from A to the zero ring. Thus the zero ring is a terminal object in the category of rings.[9]
• If A is a nonzero ring, then there is no ring homomorphism from the zero ring to A. In particular, the zero ring is not a subring of any nonzero ring.[10]
• The zero ring is the unique ring of characteristic 1.
• The only module for the zero ring is the zero module. It is free of rank א for any cardinal number א.
• The zero ring is not a local ring. It is, however, a semilocal ring.
• The zero ring is Artinian and (therefore) Noetherian.
• The spectrum of the zero ring is the empty scheme.[11]
• The Krull dimension of the zero ring is −∞.
• The zero ring is semisimple but not simple.
• The zero ring is not a central simple algebra over any field.
• The total quotient ring of the zero ring is itself.
Constructions
• For any ring A and ideal I of A, the quotient A/I is the zero ring if and only if I = A, i.e. if and only if I is the unit ideal.
• For any commutative ring A and multiplicative set S in A, the localization S−1A is the zero ring if and only if S contains 0.
• If A is any ring, then the ring M0(A) of 0 × 0 matrices over A is the zero ring.
• The direct product of an empty collection of rings is the zero ring.
• The endomorphism ring of the trivial group is the zero ring.
• The ring of continuous real-valued functions on the empty topological space is the zero ring.

Subrepresentation
In representation theory, a subrepresentation of a representation $(\pi ,V)$ of a group G is a representation $(\pi |_{W},W)$ such that W is a vector subspace of V and $\pi |_{W}(g)=\pi (g)|_{W}$.
A nonzero finite-dimensional representation always contains a nonzero subrepresentation that is irreducible, the fact seen by induction on dimension. This fact is generally false for infinite-dimensional representations.
If $(\pi ,V)$ is a representation of G, then there is the trivial subrepresentation:
$V^{G}=\{v\in V\mid \pi (g)v=v,\,g\in G\}.$

Ultrafilter
In the mathematical field of order theory, an ultrafilter on a given partially ordered set (or "poset") $P$ is a certain subset of $P,$ namely a maximal filter on $P;$ that is, a proper filter on $P$ that cannot be enlarged to a bigger proper filter on $P.$
This article is about the mathematical concept in order theory. For ultrafilters on sets specifically, see Ultrafilter (set theory). For the physical device, see ultrafiltration.
If $X$ is an arbitrary set, its power set $\wp (X),$ ordered by set inclusion, is always a Boolean algebra and hence a poset, and ultrafilters on $\wp (X)$ are usually called ultrafilter on the set $X$.[note 1] An ultrafilter on a set $X$ may be considered as a finitely additive measure on $X$. In this view, every subset of $X$ is either considered "almost everything" (has measure 1) or "almost nothing" (has measure 0), depending on whether it belongs to the given ultrafilter or not.
Ultrafilters have many applications in set theory, model theory, topology[1]: 186 and combinatorics.[2]
Ultrafilters on partial orders
In order theory, an ultrafilter is a subset of a partially ordered set that is maximal among all proper filters. This implies that any filter that properly contains an ultrafilter has to be equal to the whole poset.
Formally, if $P$ is a set, partially ordered by $\,\leq \,$ then
• a subset $F\subseteq P$ is called a filter on $P$ if
• $F$ is nonempty,
• for every $x,y\in F,$ there exists some element $z\in F$ such that $z\leq x$ and $z\leq y,$ and
• for every $x\in F$ and $y\in P,$ $x\leq y$ implies that $y$ is in $F$ too;
• a proper subset $U$ of $P$ is called an ultrafilter on $P$ if
• $U$ is a filter on $P,$ and
• there is no proper filter $F$ on $P$ that properly extends $U$ (that is, such that $U$ is a proper subset of $F$).
Types and existence of ultrafilters
Every ultrafilter falls into exactly one of two categories: principal or free. A principal (or fixed, or trivial) ultrafilter is a filter containing a least element. Consequently, principal ultrafilters are of the form $F_{a}=\{x:a\leq x\}$ for some (but not all) elements $a$ of the given poset. In this case $a$ is called the principal element of the ultrafilter. Any ultrafilter that is not principal is called a free (or non-principal) ultrafilter.
For ultrafilters on a powerset $\wp (X),$ a principal ultrafilter consists of all subsets of $X$ that contain a given element $x\in X.$ Each ultrafilter on $\wp (X)$ that is also a principal filter is of this form.[1]: 187 Therefore, an ultrafilter $U$ on $\wp (X)$ is principal if and only if it contains a finite set.[note 2] If $X$ is infinite, an ultrafilter $U$ on $\wp (X)$ is hence non-principal if and only if it contains the Fréchet filter of cofinite subsets of $X.$[note 3] If $X$ is finite, every ultrafilter is principal.[1]: 187 If $X$ is infinite then the Fréchet filter is not an ultrafilter on the power set of $X$ but it is an ultrafilter on the finite–cofinite algebra of $X.$
Every filter on a Boolean algebra (or more generally, any subset with the finite intersection property) is contained in an ultrafilter (see ultrafilter lemma) and that free ultrafilters therefore exist, but the proofs involve the axiom of choice (AC) in the form of Zorn's lemma. On the other hand, the statement that every filter is contained in an ultrafilter does not imply AC. Indeed, it is equivalent to the Boolean prime ideal theorem (BPIT), a well-known intermediate point between the axioms of Zermelo–Fraenkel set theory (ZF) and the ZF theory augmented by the axiom of choice (ZFC). In general, proofs involving the axiom of choice do not produce explicit examples of free ultrafilters, though it is possible to find explicit examples in some models of ZFC; for example, Gödel showed that this can be done in the constructible universe where one can write down an explicit global choice function. In ZF without the axiom of choice, it is possible that every ultrafilter is principal.[3]
Ultrafilter on a Boolean algebra
An important special case of the concept occurs if the considered poset is a Boolean algebra. In this case, ultrafilters are characterized by containing, for each element $a$ of the Boolean algebra, exactly one of the elements $a$ and $\lnot a$ (the latter being the Boolean complement of $a$):
If $P$ is a Boolean algebra and $F$ is a proper filter on $P,$ then the following statements are equivalent:
1. $F$ is an ultrafilter on $P,$
2. $F$ is a prime filter on $P,$
3. for each $a\in P,$ either $a\in F$ or ($\lnot a$) $\in F.$[1]: 186
A proof that 1. and 2. are equivalent is also given in (Burris, Sankappanavar, 2012, Corollary 3.13, p.133).[4]
Moreover, ultrafilters on a Boolean algebra can be related to maximal ideals and homomorphisms to the 2-element Boolean algebra {true, false} (also known as 2-valued morphisms) as follows:
• Given a homomorphism of a Boolean algebra onto {true, false}, the inverse image of "true" is an ultrafilter, and the inverse image of "false" is a maximal ideal.
• Given a maximal ideal of a Boolean algebra, its complement is an ultrafilter, and there is a unique homomorphism onto {true, false} taking the maximal ideal to "false".
• Given an ultrafilter on a Boolean algebra, its complement is a maximal ideal, and there is a unique homomorphism onto {true, false} taking the ultrafilter to "true".
Ultrafilter on the power set of a set
Main article: Ultrafilter (set theory)
Given an arbitrary set $X,$ its power set $\wp (X),$ ordered by set inclusion, is always a Boolean algebra; hence the results of the above section apply. An (ultra)filter on $\wp (X)$ is often called just an "(ultra)filter on $X$".[note 1] Given an arbitrary set $X,$ an ultrafilter on $\wp (X)$ is a set ${\mathcal {U}}$ consisting of subsets of $X$ such that:
1. The empty set is not an element of ${\mathcal {U}}$.
2. If $A$ is an element of ${\mathcal {U}}$ then so is every superset $B\supset A$.
3. If $A$ and $B$ are elements of ${\mathcal {U}}$ then so is the intersection $A\cap B$.
4. If $A$ is a subset of $X,$ then either[note 4] $A$ or its complement $X\setminus A$ is an element of ${\mathcal {U}}$.
An equivalent form of a given ${\mathcal {U}}$ is a 2-valued morphism, a function $m$ on $\wp (X)$ defined as $m(A)=1$ if $A$ is an element of ${\mathcal {U}}$ and $m(A)=0$ otherwise. Then $m$ is finitely additive, and hence a content on $\wp (X),$ and every property of elements of $X$ is either true almost everywhere or false almost everywhere. However, $m$ is usually not countably additive, and hence does not define a measure in the usual sense.
For a filter ${\mathcal {F}}$ that is not an ultrafilter, one can define $m(A)=1$ if $A\in {\mathcal {F}}$ and $m(A)=0$ if $X\setminus A\in {\mathcal {F}},$ leaving $m$ undefined elsewhere.[5]
Applications
Ultrafilters on power sets are useful in topology, especially in relation to compact Hausdorff spaces, and in model theory in the construction of ultraproducts and ultrapowers. Every ultrafilter on a compact Hausdorff space converges to exactly one point. Likewise, ultrafilters on Boolean algebras play a central role in Stone's representation theorem. In set theory ultrafilters are used to show that the axiom of constructibility is incompatible with the existence of a measurable cardinal κ. This is proved by taking the ultrapower of the set theoretical universe modulo a κ-complete, non-principal ultrafilter.[6]
The set $G$ of all ultrafilters of a poset $P$ can be topologized in a natural way, that is in fact closely related to the above-mentioned representation theorem. For any element $a$ of $P$, let $D_{a}=\left\{U\in G:a\in U\right\}.$ This is most useful when $P$ is again a Boolean algebra, since in this situation the set of all $D_{a}$ is a base for a compact Hausdorff topology on $G$. Especially, when considering the ultrafilters on a powerset $\wp (S),$ the resulting topological space is the Stone–Čech compactification of a discrete space of cardinality $|S|.$
The ultraproduct construction in model theory uses ultrafilters to produce a new model starting from a sequence of $X$-indexed models; for example, the compactness theorem can be proved this way. In the special case of ultrapowers, one gets elementary extensions of structures. For example, in nonstandard analysis, the hyperreal numbers can be constructed as an ultraproduct of the real numbers, extending the domain of discourse from real numbers to sequences of real numbers. This sequence space is regarded as a superset of the reals by identifying each real with the corresponding constant sequence. To extend the familiar functions and relations (e.g., + and <) from the reals to the hyperreals, the natural idea is to define them pointwise. But this would lose important logical properties of the reals; for example, pointwise < is not a total ordering. So instead the functions and relations are defined "pointwise modulo" $U$, where $U$ is an ultrafilter on the index set of the sequences; by Łoś' theorem, this preserves all properties of the reals that can be stated in first-order logic. If $U$ is nonprincipal, then the extension thereby obtained is nontrivial.
In geometric group theory, non-principal ultrafilters are used to define the asymptotic cone of a group. This construction yields a rigorous way to consider looking at the group from infinity, that is the large scale geometry of the group. Asymptotic cones are particular examples of ultralimits of metric spaces.
Gödel's ontological proof of God's existence uses as an axiom that the set of all "positive properties" is an ultrafilter.
In social choice theory, non-principal ultrafilters are used to define a rule (called a social welfare function) for aggregating the preferences of infinitely many individuals. Contrary to Arrow's impossibility theorem for finitely many individuals, such a rule satisfies the conditions (properties) that Arrow proposes (for example, Kirman and Sondermann, 1972).[7] Mihara (1997,[8] 1999)[9] shows, however, such rules are practically of limited interest to social scientists, since they are non-algorithmic or non-computable.

Notes
1. If $X$ happens to be partially ordered, too, particular care is needed to understand from the context whether an (ultra)filter on $\wp (X)$ or an (ultra)filter just on $X$ is meant; both kinds of (ultra)filters are quite different. Some authors use "(ultra)filter of a partial ordered set" vs. "on an arbitrary set"; i.e. they write "(ultra)filter on $X$" to abbreviate "(ultra)filter of $\wp (X)$".
2. To see the "if" direction: If $\left\{x_{1},\ldots ,x_{n}\right\}\in U,$ then $\left\{x_{1}\right\}\in U,{\text{ or }}\ldots {\text{ or }}\left\{x_{n}\right\}\in U,$ by the characterization Nr.7 from Ultrafilter (set theory)#Characterizations. That is, some $\left\{x_{i}\right\}$ is the principal element of $U.$
3. $U$ is non-principal if and only if it contains no finite set, that is, (by Nr.3 of the above characterization theorem) if and only if it contains every cofinite set, that is, every member of the Fréchet filter.
4. Properties 1 and 3 imply that $A$ and $X\setminus A$ cannot both be elements of $U.$

Trochoid
In geometry, a trochoid (from Greek trochos 'wheel') is a roulette curve formed by a circle rolling along a line. It is the curve traced out by a point fixed to a circle (where the point may be on, inside, or outside the circle) as it rolls along a straight line.[1] If the point is on the circle, the trochoid is called common (also known as a cycloid); if the point is inside the circle, the trochoid is curtate; and if the point is outside the circle, the trochoid is prolate. The word "trochoid" was coined by Gilles de Roberval.
Basic description
As a circle of radius a rolls without slipping along a line L, the center C moves parallel to L, and every other point P in the rotating plane rigidly attached to the circle traces the curve called the trochoid. Let CP = b. Parametric equations of the trochoid for which L is the x-axis are
${\begin{aligned}&x=a\theta -b\sin \theta \\&y=a-b\cos \theta \end{aligned}}$
where θ is the variable angle through which the circle rolls.
Curtate, common, prolate
If P lies inside the circle (b < a), on its circumference (b = a), or outside (b > a), the trochoid is described as being curtate ("contracted"), common, or prolate ("extended"), respectively.[2] A curtate trochoid is traced by a pedal (relative to the ground) when a normally geared bicycle is pedaled along a straight line.[3] A prolate trochoid is traced by the tip of a paddle (relative to the water's surface) when a boat is driven with constant velocity by paddle wheels; this curve contains loops. A common trochoid, also called a cycloid, has cusps at the points where P touches the line L.
General description
A more general approach would define a trochoid as the locus of a point $(x,y)$ orbiting at a constant rate around an axis located at $(x',y')$,
$x=x'+r_{1}\cos(\omega _{1}t+\phi _{1}),\ y=y'+r_{1}\sin(\omega _{1}t+\phi _{1}),\ r_{1}>0,$
which axis is being translated in the x-y-plane at a constant rate in either a straight line,
${\begin{array}{lcl}x'=x_{0}+v_{2x}t,\ y'=y_{0}+v_{2y}t\\\therefore x=x_{0}+r_{1}\cos(\omega _{1}t+\phi _{1})+v_{2x}t,\ y=y_{0}+r_{1}\sin(\omega _{1}t+\phi _{1})+v_{2y}t,\\\end{array}}$
or a circular path (another orbit) around $(x_{0},y_{0})$ (the hypotrochoid/epitrochoid case),
${\begin{array}{lcl}x'=x_{0}+r_{2}\cos(\omega _{2}t+\phi _{2}),\ y'=y_{0}+r_{2}\sin(\omega _{2}t+\phi _{2}),\ r_{2}\geq 0\\\therefore x=x_{0}+r_{1}\cos(\omega _{1}t+\phi _{1})+r_{2}\cos(\omega _{2}t+\phi _{2}),\ y=y_{0}+r_{1}\sin(\omega _{1}t+\phi _{1})+r_{2}\sin(\omega _{2}t+\phi _{2}),\\\end{array}}$
The ratio of the rates of motion and whether the moving axis translates in a straight or circular path determines the shape of the trochoid. In the case of a straight path, one full rotation coincides with one period of a periodic (repeating) locus. In the case of a circular path for the moving axis, the locus is periodic only if the ratio of these angular motions, $\omega _{1}/\omega _{2}$, is a rational number, say $p/q$, where $p$ & $q$ are coprime, in which case, one period consists of $p$ orbits around the moving axis and $q$ orbits of the moving axis around the point $(x_{0},y_{0})$. The special cases of the epicycloid and hypocycloid, generated by tracing the locus of a point on the perimeter of a circle of radius $r_{1}$ while it is rolled on the perimeter of a stationary circle of radius $R$, have the following properties:
${\begin{array}{lcl}{\text{epicycloid: }}&\omega _{1}/\omega _{2}&=p/q=r_{2}/r_{1}=R/r_{1}+1,\ |p-q|{\text{ cusps}}\\{\text{hypocycloid: }}&\omega _{1}/\omega _{2}&=p/q=-r_{2}/r_{1}=-(R/r_{1}-1),\ |p-q|=|p|+|q|{\text{ cusps}}\end{array}}$
where $r_{2}$ is the radius of the orbit of the moving axis. The number of cusps given above also hold true for any epitrochoid and hypotrochoid, with "cusps" replaced by either "radial maxima" or "radial minima".

Trombi–Varadarajan theorem
In mathematics, the Trombi–Varadarajan theorem, introduced by Trombi and Varadarjan (1971), gives an isomorphism between a certain space of spherical functions on a semisimple Lie group, and a certain space of holomorphic functions defined on a tubular neighborhood of the dual of a Cartan subalgebra.

Tromino
A tromino or triomino is a polyomino of size 3, that is, a polygon in the plane made of three equal-sized squares connected edge-to-edge.[1]
Symmetry and enumeration
When rotations and reflections are not considered to be distinct shapes, there are only two different free trominoes: "I" and "L" (the "L" shape is also called "V").
Since both free trominoes have reflection symmetry, they are also the only two one-sided trominoes (trominoes with reflections considered distinct). When rotations are also considered distinct, there are six fixed trominoes: two I and four L shapes. They can be obtained by rotating the above forms by 90°, 180° and 270°.[2][3]
Rep-tiling and Golomb's tromino theorem
Both types of tromino can be dissected into n2 smaller trominos of the same type, for any integer n > 1. That is, they are rep-tiles.[4] Continuing this dissection recursively leads to a tiling of the plane, which in many cases is an aperiodic tiling. In this context, the L-tromino is called a chair, and its tiling by recursive subdivision into four smaller L-trominos is called the chair tiling.[5]
Motivated by the mutilated chessboard problem, Solomon W. Golomb used this tiling as the basis for what has become known as Golomb's tromino theorem: if any square is removed from a 2n × 2n chessboard, the remaining board can be completely covered with L-trominoes. To prove this by mathematical induction, partition the board into a quarter-board of size 2n−1 × 2n−1 that contains the removed square, and a large tromino formed by the other three quarter-boards. The tromino can be recursively dissected into unit trominoes, and a dissection of the quarter-board with one square removed follows by the induction hypothesis. In contrast, when a chessboard of this size has one square removed, it is not always possible to cover the remaining squares by I-trominoes.[6]

Trope (mathematics)
In geometry, trope is an archaic term for a singular (meaning special) tangent space of a variety, often a quartic surface. The term may have been introduced by Cayley (1869, p. 202), who defined it as "the reciprocal term to node". It is not easy to give a precise definition, because the term is used mainly in older books and papers on algebraic geometry, whose definitions are vague and different, and use archaic terminology. The term trope is used in the theory of quartic surfaces in projective space, where it is sometimes defined as a tangent space meeting the quartic surface in a conic; for example Kummer's surface has 16 tropes.
Hudson (1990, p. 14), describes a trope as a tangent plane where the envelope of nearby tangent planes forms a conic, rather than a plane pencil which we would expect for a generic point. The tangent plane would be tangent to the quartic along the conic, implying that the Gauss map would have a singular point. (Dolgachev 2012, p. 437)

Johannes Tropfke
Johannes Tropfke (14 October 1866 – 10 November 1939) was a German mathematician and teacher, who is best remembered for his influential work on the history of mathematics Geschichte der Elementarmathematik, which consists of seven volumes.
Life
Tropfke was born in Berlin at Marienstraße 14 as the older of two sons of the cabinet maker Franz Tropfke. The house in which Tropfke was born was built by his grandfather Franz Joseph Tropfke around 1830 and is one of the few houses in the area that was not destroyed during World War II. Tropfke grew up in Berlin and after his graduation from the Friedrichs-Gymnasium (high school) in 1884 he attended the university in Berlin to study sciences and mathematics. In 1889 he was awarded a degree to teach math and sciences at gymnasiums (high schools). Later he earned a PhD in mathematics from the University of Halle for a thesis on elliptic integrals (Zur Darstellung des elliptischen Integrales erster Gattung), his advisor was Lazarus Fuchs.[1][2]
Tropfke first worked as teacher at the Friedrichs-Realgymnasium and at the Realgymnasium of Dorotheenstadt and in 1913 he became the principal of the newly founded Kirschner-Oberrealschule in Moabit. Tropfke stayed on in this position until his retirement in 1932. In 1907 he was awarded the title of a professor. He was one of the first members of the International Academy of the History of Science and in 1939 he was awarded the Leibniz medal by the Prussian Academy of Sciences.[1]
Aside from his work in education and mathematics Tropfke also had a career in local politics. He was a member of the German People's Party and served as council member for the city of Berlin from 1907 to 1920.[1]
Tropfke married Frida Thyssen. The couple had a son Erich, who perished in World War I, and a daughter Elisabeth. Tropfke died on 10 November 1939 in the very same house in which he was born.[1]
Work
Tropfke's most important contributions were in the history of mathematics. His seminal work Geschichte der Elementarmathematik originally consisted of two volumes, when it was first published in 1902 and 1903. Later it got expanded into seven volumes for its second edition (1921-1924). For this second edition Tropfke was supported by the mathematicians and historians Gustaf Eneström, Julius Ruska and Heinrich Wieleitner. To incorporate the latest research Tropfke published revised third editions of the first three volumes in the 1930s. After his death the mathematician Kurt Vogel completed the third edition of the fourth volume in 1940. The structure and focus of Tropfke's work differed somewhat from most work in the history of mathematics at the time. Instead of structuring the material chronologically with a focus on the biography of mathematicians, Tropfke selected to organize it by mathematical fields and then focused on the development of concepts and terminology in those fields rather than on biographical aspects. In particular with its second edition Tropfke's Geschichte der Elementarmathematik was also one of the most extensive compilations on the history of mathematics, which led to it becoming a well known and influential reference work.[3][4][5][1]
The publication of a fourth revised edition under the direction of Kurt Vogel, Karin Reich and Helmuth Gericke began from 1980 onwards, more than 40 years after Tropfke's death.[6]
In 1930 Tropfke received the Ackermann–Teubner Memorial Award for his second edition of Geschichte der Elementarmathematik.[7]

Tropical compactification
In algebraic geometry, a tropical compactification is a compactification (projective completion) of a subvariety of an algebraic torus, introduced by Jenia Tevelev.[1][2] Given an algebraic torus and a connected closed subvariety of that torus, a compactification of the subvariety is defined as a closure of it in a toric variety of the original torus. The concept of a tropical compactification arises when trying to make compactifications as "nice" as possible. For a torus $T$, a toric variety $\mathbb {P} $, the compactification ${\bar {X}}$ is tropical when the map
$\Phi :T\times {\bar {X}}\to \mathbb {P} ,\ (t,x)\to tx$
is faithfully flat and ${\bar {X}}$ is proper.

Tropical geometry
In mathematics, tropical geometry is the study of polynomials and their geometric properties when addition is replaced with minimization and multiplication is replaced with ordinary addition:
$x\oplus y=\min\{x,y\},$
$x\otimes y=x+y.$
So for example, the classical polynomial $x^{3}+2xy+y^{4}$ would become $\min\{x+x+x,\;2+x+y,\;y+y+y+y\}$. Such polynomials and their solutions have important applications in optimization problems, for example the problem of optimizing departure times for a network of trains.
Tropical geometry is a variant of algebraic geometry in which polynomial graphs resemble piecewise linear meshes, and in which numbers belong to the tropical semiring instead of a field. Because classical and tropical geometry are closely related, results and methods can be converted between them. Algebraic varieties can be mapped to a tropical counterpart and, since this process still retains some geometric information about the original variety, it can be used to help prove and generalize classical results from algebraic geometry, such as the Brill–Noether theorem, using the tools of tropical geometry.[1]
History
The basic ideas of tropical analysis were developed independently using the same notation by mathematicians working in various fields.[2] The central ideas of tropical geometry appeared in different forms in a number of earlier works. For example, Victor Pavlovich Maslov introduced a tropical version of the process of integration. He also noticed that the Legendre transformation and solutions of the Hamilton–Jacobi equation are linear operations in the tropical sense.[3] However, only since the late 1990s has an effort been made to consolidate the basic definitions of the theory. This was motivated by its application to enumerative algebraic geometry, with ideas from Maxim Kontsevich[4] and works by Grigory Mikhalkin[5] among others.
The adjective tropical was coined by French mathematicians in honor of the Hungarian-born Brazilian computer scientist Imre Simon, who wrote on the field. Jean-Éric Pin attributes the coinage to Dominique Perrin,[6] whereas Simon himself attributes the word to Christian Choffrut.[7]
Algebra background
Further information: Tropical semiring
Tropical geometry is based on the tropical semiring. This is defined in two ways, depending on max or min convention.
The min tropical semiring is the semiring $(\mathbb {R} \cup \{+\infty \},\oplus ,\otimes )$, with the operations:
$x\oplus y=\min\{x,y\},$
$x\otimes y=x+y.$
The operations $\oplus $ and $\otimes $ are referred to as tropical addition and tropical multiplication respectively. The identity element for $\oplus $ is $+\infty $, and the identity element for $\otimes $ is 0.
Similarly, the max tropical semiring is the semiring $(\mathbb {R} \cup \{-\infty \},\oplus ,\otimes )$, with operations:
$x\oplus y=\max\{x,y\},$
$x\otimes y=x+y.$
The identity element for $\oplus $ is $-\infty $, and the identity element for $\otimes $ is 0.
These semirings are isomorphic, under negation $x\mapsto -x$, and generally one of these is chosen and referred to simply as the tropical semiring. Conventions differ between authors and subfields: some use the min convention, some use the max convention.
The tropical semiring operations model how valuations behave under addition and multiplication in a valued field.
Some common valued fields encountered in tropical geometry (with min convention) are:
• $\mathbb {Q} $ or $\mathbb {C} $ with the trivial valuation, $v(a)=0$ for all $a\neq 0$.
• $\mathbb {Q} $ or its extensions with the p-adic valuation, $v_{p}(p^{n}a/b)=n$ for a and b coprime to p.
• The field of Laurent series $\mathbb {C} (\!(t)\!)$ (integer powers), or the field of (complex) Puiseux series $\mathbb {C} \{\!\{t\}\!\}$, with valuation returning the smallest exponent of t appearing in the series.
Tropical polynomials
A tropical polynomial is a function $F\colon \mathbb {R} ^{n}\to \mathbb {R} $ that can be expressed as the tropical sum of a finite number of monomial terms. A monomial term is a tropical product (and/or quotient) of a constant and variables from $X_{1},\ldots ,X_{n}$. Thus a tropical polynomial F is the minimum of a finite collection of affine-linear functions in which the variables have integer coefficients, so it is concave, continuous, and piecewise linear.[8]
${\begin{aligned}F(X_{1},\ldots ,X_{n})&=\left(C_{1}\otimes X_{1}^{\otimes a_{11}}\otimes \cdots \otimes X_{n}^{\otimes a_{n1}}\right)\oplus \cdots \oplus \left(C_{s}\otimes X_{1}^{\otimes a_{1s}}\otimes \cdots \otimes X_{n}^{\otimes a_{ns}}\right)\\&=\min\{C_{1}+a_{11}X_{1}+\cdots +a_{n1}X_{n},\;\ldots ,\;C_{s}+a_{1s}X_{1}+\cdots +a_{ns}X_{n}\}.\end{aligned}}$
Given a polynomial f in the Laurent polynomial ring $K[x_{1}^{\pm 1},\ldots ,x_{n}^{\pm 1}]$ where K is a valued field, the tropicalization of f, denoted $\operatorname {Trop} (f)$, is the tropical polynomial obtained from f by replacing multiplication and addition by their tropical counterparts and each constant in K by its valuation. That is, if
$f=\sum _{i=1}^{s}c_{i}x^{A_{i}}\quad {\text{ with }}A_{1},\ldots ,A_{s}\in \mathbb {Z} ^{n},$
then
$\operatorname {Trop} (f)=\bigoplus _{i=1}^{s}v(c_{i})\otimes X^{\otimes A_{i}}.$
The set of points where a tropical polynomial F is non-differentiable is called its associated tropical hypersurface, denoted $\mathrm {V} (F)$ (in analogy to the vanishing set of a polynomial). Equivalently, $\mathrm {V} (F)$ is the set of points where the minimum among the terms of F is achieved at least twice. When $F=\operatorname {Trop} (f)$ for a Laurent polynomial f, this latter characterization of $\mathrm {V} (F)$ reflects the fact that at any solution to $f=0$, the minimum valuation of the terms of f must be achieved at least twice in order for them all to cancel.[9]
Tropical varieties
Definitions
For X an algebraic variety in the algebraic torus $(K^{\times })^{n}$, the tropical variety of X or tropicalization of X, denoted $\operatorname {Trop} (X)$, is a subset of $\mathbb {R} ^{n}$ that can be defined in several ways. The equivalence of these definitions is referred to as the Fundamental Theorem of Tropical Geometry.[9]
Intersection of tropical hypersurfaces
Let $\mathrm {I} (X)$ be the ideal of Laurent polynomials that vanish on X in $K[x_{1}^{\pm 1},\ldots ,x_{n}^{\pm 1}]$. Define
$\operatorname {Trop} (X)=\bigcap _{f\in \mathrm {I} (X)}\mathrm {V} (\operatorname {Trop} (f))\subseteq \mathbb {R} ^{n}.$
When X is a hypersurface, its vanishing ideal $\mathrm {I} (X)$ is a principal ideal generated by a Laurent polynomial f, and the tropical variety $\operatorname {Trop} (X)$ is precisely the tropical hypersurface $\mathrm {V} (\operatorname {Trop} (f))$.
Every tropical variety is the intersection of a finite number of tropical hypersurfaces. A finite set of polynomials $\{f_{1},\ldots ,f_{r}\}\subseteq \mathrm {I} (X)$ is called a tropical basis for X if $\operatorname {Trop} (X)$ is the intersection of the tropical hypersurfaces of $\operatorname {Trop} (f_{1}),\ldots ,\operatorname {Trop} (f_{r})$. In general, a generating set of $\mathrm {I} (X)$ is not sufficient to form a tropical basis. The intersection of a finite number of a tropical hypersurfaces is called a tropical prevariety and in general is not a tropical variety.[9]
Initial ideals
Choosing a vector $\mathbf {w} $ in $\mathbb {R} ^{n}$ defines a map from the monomial terms of $K[x_{1}^{\pm 1},\ldots ,x_{n}^{\pm 1}]$ to $\mathbb {R} $ by sending the term m to $\operatorname {Trop} (m)(\mathbf {w} )$. For a Laurent polynomial $f=m_{1}+\cdots +m_{s}$, define the initial form of f to be the sum of the terms $m_{i}$ of f for which $\operatorname {Trop} (m_{i})(\mathbf {w} )$ is minimal. For the ideal $\mathrm {I} (X)$, define its initial ideal with respect to $\mathbf {w} $ to be
$\operatorname {in} _{\mathbf {w} }\mathrm {I} (X)=(\operatorname {in} _{\mathbf {w} }(f):f\in \mathrm {I} (X)).$
Then define
$\operatorname {Trop} (X)=\{\mathbf {w} \in \mathbb {R} ^{n}:\operatorname {in} _{\mathbf {w} }\mathrm {I} (X)\neq (1)\}.$
Since we are working in the Laurent ring, this is the same as the set of weight vectors for which $\operatorname {in} _{\mathbf {w} }\mathrm {I} (X)$ does not contain a monomial.
When K has trivial valuation, $\operatorname {in} _{\mathbf {w} }\mathrm {I} (X)$ is precisely the initial ideal of $\mathrm {I} (X)$ with respect to the monomial order given by a weight vector $\mathbf {w} $. It follows that $\operatorname {Trop} (X)$ is a subfan of the Gröbner fan of $\mathrm {I} (X)$.
Image of the valuation map
Suppose that X is a variety over a field K with valuation v whose image is dense in $\mathbb {R} $ (for example a field of Puiseux series). By acting coordinate-wise, v defines a map from the algebraic torus $(K^{\times })^{n}$ to $\mathbb {R} ^{n}$. Then define
$\operatorname {Trop} (X)={\overline {\{(v(x_{1}),\ldots ,v(x_{n})):(x_{1},\ldots ,x_{n})\in X\}}},$
where the overline indicates the closure in the Euclidean topology. If the valuation of K is not dense in $\mathbb {R} $, then the above definition can be adapted by extending scalars to larger field which does have a dense valuation.
This definition shows that $\operatorname {Trop} (X)$ is the non-Archimedean amoeba over an algebraically closed non-Archimedean field K.[10]
If X is a variety over $\mathbb {C} $, $\operatorname {Trop} (X)$ can be considered as the limiting object of the amoeba $\operatorname {Log} _{t}(X)$ as the base t of the logarithm map goes to infinity.[11]
Polyhedral complex
The following characterization describes tropical varieties intrinsically without reference to algebraic varieties and tropicalization. A set V in $\mathbb {R} ^{n}$ is an irreducible tropical variety if it is the support of a weighted polyhedral complex of pure dimension d that satisfies the zero-tension condition and is connected in codimension one. When d is one, the zero-tension condition means that around each vertex, the weighted-sum of the out-going directions of edges equals zero. For higher dimension, sums are taken instead around each cell of dimension $d-1$ after quotienting out the affine span of the cell.[8] The property that V is connected in codimension one means for any two points lying on dimension d cells, there is a path connecting them that does not pass through any cells of dimension less than $d-1$.[12]
Tropical curves
The study of tropical curves (tropical varieties of dimension one) is particularly well developed and is strongly related to graph theory. For instance, the theory of divisors of tropical curves are related to chip-firing games on graphs associated to the tropical curves.[13]
Many classical theorems of algebraic geometry have counterparts in tropical geometry, including:
• Pappus's hexagon theorem.[14]
• Bézout's theorem.
• The degree-genus formula.
• The Riemann–Roch theorem.[15]
• The group law of the cubics.[16]
Oleg Viro used tropical curves to classify real curves of degree 7 in the plane up to isotopy. His method of patchworking gives a procedure to build a real curve of a given isotopy class from its tropical curve.
Applications
A tropical line appeared in Paul Klemperer's design of auctions used by the Bank of England during the financial crisis in 2007.[17] Yoshinori Shiozawa defined subtropical algebra as max-times or min-times semiring (instead of max-plus and min-plus). He found that Ricardian trade theory (international trade without input trade) can be interpreted as subtropical convex algebra.[18] Tropical geometry has also been used for analyzing the complexity of feedforward neural networks with ReLU activation.[19]
Moreover, several optimization problems arising for instance in job scheduling, location analysis, transportation networks, decision making and discrete event dynamical systems can be formulated and solved in the framework of tropical geometry.[20] A tropical counterpart of the Abel–Jacobi map can be applied to a crystal design.[21] The weights in a weighted finite-state transducer are often required to be a tropical semiring. Tropical geometry can show self-organized criticality.[22]

Tropical projective space
In tropical geometry, a tropical projective space is the tropical analog of the classic projective space.
Definition
Given a module M over the tropical semiring T, its projectivization is the usual projective space of a module: the quotient space of the module (omitting the additive identity 0) under scalar multiplication, omitting multiplication by the scalar additive identity 0:[lower-alpha 1]
$\mathbf {T} (M):=(M\setminus \mathbf {0} )/(\mathbf {T} \setminus 0).$
In the tropical setting, tropical multiplication is classical addition, with unit real number 0 (not 1); tropical addition is minimum or maximum (depending on convention), with unit extended real number ∞ (not 0),[lower-alpha 2] so it is clearer to write this using the extended real numbers, rather than the abstract algebraic units:
$\mathbf {T} (M):=(M\setminus {\boldsymbol {\infty }})/(\mathbf {T} \setminus \infty ).$
Just as in the classical case, the standard n-dimensional tropical projective space is defined as the quotient of the standard (n+1)-dimensional coordinate space by scalar multiplication, with all operations defined coordinate-wise:[1]
$\mathbf {TP} ^{n}:=(\mathbf {T} ^{n+1}\setminus {\boldsymbol {\infty }})/(\mathbf {T} \setminus \infty ).$
Tropical multiplication corresponds to classical addition, so tropical scalar multiplication by c corresponds to adding c to all coordinates. Thus two elements of $\mathbf {T} ^{n+1}\setminus {\boldsymbol {\infty }}$ are identified if their coordinates differ by the same additive amount c:
$(x_{0},\dots ,x_{n})\sim (y_{0},\dots ,y_{n})\iff (x_{0}+c,\dots ,x_{n}+c)=(y_{0},\dots ,y_{n}).$
Notes
1. As usual, scalar multiplication of any vector by 0 yields the identity for vector addition 0, so these must be omitted or all vectors will be identified.
2. ∞ can be interpreted as either positive or negative infinity, depending on convention.

Tropical analysis
In the mathematical discipline of idempotent analysis, tropical analysis is the study of the tropical semiring.
Applications
The max tropical semiring can be used appropriately to determine marking times within a given Petri net and a vector filled with marking state at the beginning: $-\infty $ (unit for max, tropical addition) means "never before", while 0 (unit for addition, tropical multiplication) is "no additional time".
Tropical cryptography is cryptography based on the tropical semiring.
Tropical geometry is an analog to algebraic geometry, using the tropical semiring.

Bitangents of a quartic
In the theory of algebraic plane curves, a general quartic plane curve has 28 bitangent lines, lines that are tangent to the curve in two places. These lines exist in the complex projective plane, but it is possible to define quartic curves for which all 28 of these lines have real numbers as their coordinates and therefore belong to the Euclidean plane.
An explicit quartic with twenty-eight real bitangents was first given by Plücker (1839)[1] As Plücker showed, the number of real bitangents of any quartic must be 28, 16, or a number less than 9. Another quartic with 28 real bitangents can be formed by the locus of centers of ellipses with fixed axis lengths, tangent to two non-parallel lines.[2] Shioda (1995) gave a different construction of a quartic with twenty-eight bitangents, formed by projecting a cubic surface; twenty-seven of the bitangents to Shioda's curve are real while the twenty-eighth is the line at infinity in the projective plane.
Example
The Trott curve, another curve with 28 real bitangents, is the set of points (x,y) satisfying the degree four polynomial equation
$\displaystyle 144(x^{4}+y^{4})-225(x^{2}+y^{2})+350x^{2}y^{2}+81=0.$
These points form a nonsingular quartic curve that has genus three and that has twenty-eight real bitangents.[3]
Like the examples of Plücker and of Blum and Guinand, the Trott curve has four separated ovals, the maximum number for a curve of degree four, and hence is an M-curve. The four ovals can be grouped into six different pairs of ovals; for each pair of ovals there are four bitangents touching both ovals in the pair, two that separate the two ovals, and two that do not. Additionally, each oval bounds a nonconvex region of the plane and has one bitangent spanning the nonconvex portion of its boundary.
Connections to other structures
The dual curve to a quartic curve has 28 real ordinary double points, dual to the 28 bitangents of the primal curve.
The 28 bitangents of a quartic may also be placed in correspondence with symbols of the form
${\begin{bmatrix}a&b&c\\d&e&f\\\end{bmatrix}}$
where a, b, c, d, e, f are all zero or one and where
$ad+be+cf=1\ (\operatorname {mod} \ 2).$[4]
There are 64 choices for a, b, c, d, e, f, but only 28 of these choices produce an odd sum. One may also interpret a, b, c as the homogeneous coordinates of a point of the Fano plane and d, e, f as the coordinates of a line in the same finite projective plane; the condition that the sum is odd is equivalent to requiring that the point and the line do not touch each other, and there are 28 different pairs of a point and a line that do not touch.
The points and lines of the Fano plane that are disjoint from a non-incident point-line pair form a triangle, and the bitangents of a quartic have been considered as being in correspondence with the 28 triangles of the Fano plane.[5] The Levi graph of the Fano plane is the Heawood graph, in which the triangles of the Fano plane are represented by 6-cycles. The 28 6-cycles of the Heawood graph in turn correspond to the 28 vertices of the Coxeter graph.[6]
The 28 bitangents of a quartic also correspond to pairs of the 56 lines on a degree-2 del Pezzo surface,[5] and to the 28 odd theta characteristics.
The 27 lines on the cubic and the 28 bitangents on a quartic, together with the 120 tritangent planes of a canonic sextic curve of genus 4, form a "trinity" in the sense of Vladimir Arnold, specifically a form of McKay correspondence,[7][8][9] and can be related to many further objects, including E7 and E8, as discussed at trinities.

Truchet tiles
In information visualization and graphic design, Truchet tiles are square tiles decorated with patterns that are not rotationally symmetric. When placed in a square tiling of the plane, they can form varied patterns, and the orientation of each tile can be used to visualize information associated with the tile's position within the tiling.[1]
Truchet tiles were first described in a 1704 memoir by Sébastien Truchet entitled "Mémoire sur les combinaisons", and were popularized in 1987 by Cyril Stanley Smith.[1][2]
Variations
Contrasting triangles
The tile originally studied by Truchet is split along the diagonal into two triangles of contrasting colors. The tile has four possible orientations.
Some examples of surface filling made tiling such a pattern.
With a scheme:
With random placement:
Quarter-circles
A second common form of the Truchet tiles, due to Smith (1987), decorates each tile with two quarter-circles connecting the midpoints of adjacent sides. Each such tile has two possible orientations.
The Truchet tile
Inverse of the Truchet tile, created by any 90° rotation or orthogonal flip
We have such a tiling:
This type of tile has also been used in abstract strategy games Trax and the Black Path Game, prior to Smith's work.[1]
Diagonal
A labyrinth can be generated by tiles in the form of a white square with a black diagonal. As with the quarter-circle tiles, each such tile has two orientations.[3] The connectivity of the resulting labyrinth can be analyzed mathematically using percolation theory as bond percolation at the critical point of a diagonally-oriented grid. Nick Montfort considers the single line of Commodore 64 BASIC required to generate such patterns - 10 PRINT CHR$(205.5+RND(1)); : GOTO 10 - to be "a concrete poem, a found poem".[3]

True-range multilateration
True-range multilateration (also termed range-range multilateration and spherical multilateration) is a method to determine the location of a movable vehicle or stationary point in space using multiple ranges (distances) between the vehicle/point and multiple spatially-separated known locations (often termed "stations"). [1][2] Energy waves may be involved in determining range, but are not required.
True-range multilateration is both a mathematical topic and an applied technique used in several fields. A practical application involving a fixed location occurs in surveying.[3][4] Applications involving vehicle location are termed navigation when on-board persons/equipment are informed of its location, and are termed surveillance when off-vehicle entities are informed of the vehicle's location.
Two slant ranges from two known locations can be used to locate a third point in a two-dimensional Cartesian space (plane), which is a frequently applied technique (e.g., in surveying). Similarly, two spherical ranges can be used to locate a point on a sphere, which is a fundamental concept of the ancient discipline of celestial navigation — termed the altitude intercept problem. Moreover, if more than the minimum number of ranges are available, it is good practice to utilize those as well. This article addresses the general issue of position determination using multiple ranges.
In two-dimensional geometry, it is known that if a point lies on two circles, then the circle centers and the two radii provide sufficient information to narrow the possible locations down to two – one of which is the desired solution and the other is an ambiguous solution. Additional information often narrow the possibilities down to a unique location. In three-dimensional geometry, when it is known that a point lies on the surfaces of three spheres, then the centers of the three spheres along with their radii also provide sufficient information to narrow the possible locations down to no more than two (unless the centers lie on a straight line).
True-range multilateration can be contrasted to the more frequently encountered pseudo-range multilateration, which employs range differences to locate a (typically, movable) point. Pseudo range multilateration is almost always implemented by measuring times-of-arrival (TOAs) of energy waves. True-range multilateration can also be contrasted to triangulation, which involves the measurement of angles.
Terminology
There is no accepted or widely-used general term for what is termed true-range multilateration here . That name is selected because it: (a) is an accurate description and partially familiar terminology (multilateration is often used in this context); (b) avoids specifying the number of ranges involved (as does, e.g., range-range; (c) avoids implying an application (as do, e.g., DME/DME navigation or trilateration) and (d) and avoids confusion with the more common pseudo-range multilateration.
Obtaining ranges
For similar ranges and measurement errors, a navigation and surveillance system based on true-range multilateration provide service to a significantly larger 2-D area or 3-D volume than systems based on pseudo-range multilateration. However, it is often more difficult or costly to measure true=ranges than it is to measure pseudo ranges. For distances up to a few miles and fixed locations, true-range can be measured manually. This has been done in surveying for several thousand years – e.g., using ropes and chains.
For longer distances and/or moving vehicles, a radio/radar system is generally needed. This technology was first developed circa 1940 in conjunction with radar. Since then, three methods have been employed:
• Two-way range measurement, one party active – This is the method used by traditional radars (sometimes termed primary radars) to determine the range of a non-cooperative target, and now used by laser rangefinders. Its major limitations are that: (a) the target does not identify itself, and in a multiple target situation, mis-assignment of a return can occur; (b) the return signal is attenuated (relative to the transmitted signal) by the fourth power of the vehicle-station range (thus, for distances of tens of miles or more, stations generally require high-power transmitters and/or large/sensitive antennas); and (c) many systems utilize line-of-sight propagation, which limits their ranges to less than 20 miles when both parties are at similar heights above sea level.
• Two-way range measurement, both parties active – This method was reportedly first used for navigation by the Y-Gerät aircraft guidance system fielded in 1941 by the Luftwaffe. It is now used globally in air traffic control – e.g., secondary radar surveillance and DME/DME navigation. It requires that both parties have both transmitters and receivers, and may require that interference issues be addressed.
• One-way range measurement – The time of flight (TOF) of electromagnetic energy between multiple stations and the vehicle is measured based on transmission by one party and reception by the other. This is the most recently developed method, and was enabled by the development of atomic clocks; it requires that the vehicle (user) and stations having synchronized clocks. It has been successfully demonstrated (experimentally) with Loran-C and GPS.[2][5]
Solution methods
True-range multilateration algorithms may be partitioned based on
• problem space dimension (generally, two or three),
• problem space geometry (generally, Cartesian or spherical) and
• presence of redundant measurements (more than the problem space dimension).
Any pseudo-range multilateration algorithm can be specialized for use with true-range multilateration.
Two Cartesian dimensions, two measured slant ranges (trilateration)
An analytic solution has likely been known for over 1,000 years, and is given in several texts.[6] Moreover, one can easily adapt algorithms for a three dimensional Cartesian space.
The simplest algorithm employs analytic geometry and a station-based coordinate frame. Thus, consider the circle centers (or stations) C1 and C2 in Fig. 1 which have known coordinates (e.g., have already been surveyed) and thus whose separation $U$ is known. The figure 'page' contains C1 and C2. If a third 'point of interest' P (e.g., a vehicle or another point to be surveyed) is at unknown point $(x,y)$, then Pythagoras's theorem yields
${\begin{aligned}r_{1}^{2}&=x^{2}+y^{2}\\[4pt]r_{2}^{2}&=(U-x)^{2}+y^{2}\end{aligned}}$
Thus,
${\begin{aligned}x&={\frac {r_{1}^{2}-r_{2}^{2}+U^{2}}{2U}}\\[4pt]y&=\pm {\sqrt {r_{1}^{2}-x^{2}}}\end{aligned}}$
(1)
Note that $y$ has two values (i.e., solution is ambiguous); this is usually not a problem.
While there are many enhancements, Equation 1 is the most fundamental true-range multilateration relationship. Aircraft DME/DME navigation and the trilateration method of surveying are examples of its application. During World War II Oboe and during the Korean War SHORAN used the same principle to guide aircraft based on measured ranges to two ground stations. SHORAN was later used for off-shore oil exploration and for aerial surveying. The Australian Aerodist aerial survey system utilized 2-D Cartesian true-range multilateration.[7] This 2-D scenario is sufficiently important that the term trilateration is often applied to all applications involving a known baseline and two range measurements.
The baseline containing the centers of the circles is a line of symmetry. The correct and ambiguous solutions are perpendicular to and equally distant from (on opposite sides of) the baseline. Usually, the ambiguous solution is easily identified. For example, if P is a vehicle, any motion toward or away from the baseline will be opposite that of the ambiguous solution; thus, a crude measurement of vehicle heading is sufficient. A second example: surveyors are well aware of which side of the baseline that P lies. A third example: in applications where P is an aircraft and C1 and C2 are on the ground, the ambiguous solution is usually below ground.
If needed, the interior angles of triangle C1-C2-P can be found using the trigonometric law of cosines. Also, if needed, the coordinates of P can be expressed in a second, better-known coordinate system—e.g., the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) system—provided the coordinates of C1 and C2 are known in that second system. Both are often done in surveying when the trilateration method is employed.[8] Once the coordinates of P are established, lines C1-P and C2-P can be used as new baselines, and additional points surveyed. Thus, large areas or distances can be surveyed based on multiple, smaller triangles—termed a traverse.
An implied assumption for the above equation to be true is that $r_{1}$ and $r_{2}$ relate to the same position of P. When P is a vehicle, then typically $r_{1}$ and $r_{2}$ must be measured within a synchronization tolerance that depends on the vehicle speed and the allowable vehicle position error. Alternatively, vehicle motion between range measurements may be accounted for, often by dead reckoning.
A trigonometric solution is also possible (side-side-side case). Also, a solution employing graphics is possible. A graphical solution is sometimes employed during real-time navigation, as an overlay on a map.
Three Cartesian dimensions, three measured slant ranges
There are multiple algorithms that solve the 3-D Cartesian true-range multilateration problem directly (i.e., in closed-form) – e.g., Fang.[9] Moreover, one can adopt closed-form algorithms developed for pseudo range multilateration.[10][6] Bancroft's algorithm[11] (adapted) employs vectors, which is an advantage in some situations.
The simplest algorithm corresponds to the sphere centers in Fig. 2. The figure 'page' is the plane containing C1, C2 and C3. If P is a 'point of interest' (e.g., vehicle) at $(x,y,z)$, then Pythagoras's theorem yields the slant ranges between P and the sphere centers:
${\begin{aligned}r_{1}^{2}&=x^{2}+y^{2}+z^{2}\\[4pt]r_{2}^{2}&=(x-U)^{2}+y^{2}+z^{2}\\[4pt]r_{3}^{2}&=(x-V_{x})^{2}+(y-V_{y})^{2}+z^{2}\end{aligned}}$
Thus, the coordinates of P are:
${\begin{aligned}x&={\frac {r_{1}^{2}-r_{2}^{2}+U^{2}}{2U}}\\[4pt]y&={\frac {r_{1}^{2}-r_{3}^{2}+V_{x}^{2}+V_{y}^{2}-2V_{x}x}{2V_{y}}}\\[4pt]z&=\pm {\sqrt {r_{1}^{2}-x^{2}-y^{2}}}\end{aligned}}$
(2)
The plane containing the sphere centers is a plane of symmetry. The correct and ambiguous solutions are perpendicular to it and equally distant from it, on opposite sides.
Many applications of 3-D true-range multilateration involve short ranges—e.g., precision manufacturing.[12] Integrating range measurement from three or more radars (e.g., FAA's ERAM) is a 3-D aircraft surveillance application. 3-D true-range multilateration has been used on an experimental basis with GPS satellites for aircraft navigation.[5] The requirement that an aircraft be equipped with an atomic clock precludes its general use. However, GPS receiver clock aiding is an area of active research, including aiding over a network. Thus, conclusions may change.[13] 3-D true-range multilateration was evaluated by the International Civil Aviation Organization as an aircraft landing system, but another technique was found to be more efficient.[14] Accurately measuring the altitude of aircraft during approach and landing requires many ground stations along the flight path.
Two spherical dimensions, two or more measured spherical ranges
This is a classic celestial (or astronomical) navigation problem, termed the altitude intercept problem (Fig. 3). It's the spherical geometry equivalent of the trilateration method of surveying (although the distances involved are generally much larger). A solution at sea (not necessarily involving the sun and moon) was made possible by the marine chronometer (introduced in 1761) and the discovery of the 'line of position' (LOP) in 1837. The solution method now most taught at universities (e.g., U.S. Naval Academy) employs spherical trigonometry to solve an oblique spherical triangle based on sextant measurements of the 'altitude' of two heavenly bodies.[15][16] This problem can also be addressed using vector analysis.[17] Historically, graphical techniques – e.g., the intercept method – were employed. These can accommodate more than two measured 'altitudes'. Owing to the difficulty of making measurements at sea, 3 to 5 'altitudes' are often recommended.
As the earth is better modeled as an ellipsoid of revolution than a sphere, iterative techniques may be used in modern implementations.[18] In high-altitude aircraft and missiles, a celestial navigation subsystem is often integrated with an inertial navigation subsystem to perform automated navigation—e.g., U.S. Air Force SR-71 Blackbird and B-2 Spirit.
While intended as a 'spherical' pseudo range multilateration system, Loran-C has also been used as a 'spherical' true-range multilateration system by well-equipped users (e.g., Canadian Hydrographic Service).[2] This enabled the coverage area of a Loran-C station triad to be extended significantly (e.g., doubled or tripled) and the minimum number of available transmitters to be reduced from three to two. In modern aviation, slant ranges rather than spherical ranges are more often measured; however, when aircraft altitude is known, slant ranges are readily converted to spherical ranges.[6]
Redundant range measurements
When there are more range measurements available than there are problem dimensions, either from the same C1 and C2 (or C1, C2 and C3) stations, or from additional stations, at least these benefits accrue:
• 'Bad' measurements can be identified and rejected
• Ambiguous solutions can be identified automatically (i.e., without human involvement) -- requires an additional station
• Errors in 'good' measurements can be averaged, reducing their effect.
The iterative Gauss–Newton algorithm for solving non-linear least squares (NLLS) problems is generally preferred when there are more 'good' measurements than the minimum necessary. An important advantage of the Gauss–Newton method over many closed-form algorithms is that it treats range errors linearly, which is often their nature, thereby reducing the effect of range errors by averaging.[10] The Gauss–Newton method may also be used with the minimum number of measured ranges. Since it is iterative, the Gauss–Newton method requires an initial solution estimate.
In 3-D Cartesian space, a fourth sphere eliminates the ambiguous solution that occurs with three ranges, provided its center is not co-planar with the first three. In 2-D Cartesian or spherical space, a third circle eliminates the ambiguous solution that occurs with two ranges, provided its center is not co-linear with the first two.
One-time application versus repetitive application
This article largely describes 'one-time' application of the true-range multilateration technique, which is the most basic use of the technique. With reference to Fig. 1, the characteristic of 'one-time' situations is that point P and at least one of C1 and C2 change from one application of the true-range multilateration technique to the next. This is appropriate for surveying, celestial navigation using manual sightings, and some aircraft DME/DME navigation.
However, in other situations, the true-range multilateration technique is applied repetitively (essentially continuously). In those situations, C1 and C2 (and perhaps Cn, n = 3,4,...) remain constant and P is the same vehicle. Example applications (and selected intervals between measurements) are: multiple radar aircraft surveillance (5 and 12 seconds, depending upon radar coverage range), aerial surveying, Loran-C navigation with a high-accuracy user clock (roughly 0.1 seconds), and some aircraft DME/DME navigation (roughly 0.1 seconds). Generally, implementations for repetitive use: (a) employ a 'tracker' algorithm[19] (in addition to the multilateration solution algorithm), which enables measurements collected at different times to be compared and averaged in some manner; and (b) utilize an iterative solution algorithm, as they (b1) admit varying numbers of measurements (including redundant measurements) and (b2) inherently have an initial guess each time the solution algorithm is invoked.
Hybrid multilateration systems
Hybrid multilateration systems – those that are neither true-range nor pseudo range systems – are also possible. For example, in Fig. 1, if the circle centers are shifted to the left so that C1 is at $x_{1}^{\prime }=-{\tfrac {1}{2}}U,y_{1}^{\prime }=0$ and C2 is at $x_{2}^{\prime }={\tfrac {1}{2}}U,y_{2}^{\prime }=0$ then the point of interest P is at
${\begin{aligned}x^{\prime }&={\frac {(r_{1}^{\prime }+r_{2}^{\prime })(r_{1}^{\prime }-r_{2}^{\prime })}{2U}}\\[4pt]y^{\prime }&=\pm {\frac {{\sqrt {(r_{1}^{\prime }+r_{2}^{\prime })^{2}-U^{2}}}{\sqrt {U^{2}-(r_{1}^{\prime }-r_{2}^{\prime })^{2}}}}{2U}}\end{aligned}}$
This form of the solution explicitly depends on the sum and difference of $r_{1}^{\prime }$ and $r_{2}^{\prime }$ and does not require 'chaining' from the $x^{\prime }$-solution to the $y^{\prime }$-solution. It could be implemented as a true-range multilateration system by measuring $r_{1}^{\prime }$ and $r_{2}^{\prime }$.
However, it could also be implemented as a hybrid multilateration system by measuring $r_{1}^{\prime }+r_{2}^{\prime }$ and $r_{1}^{\prime }-r_{2}^{\prime }$ using different equipment – e.g., for surveillance by a multistatic radar with one transmitter and two receivers (rather than two monostatic radars). While eliminating one transmitter is a benefit, there is a countervailing 'cost': the synchronization tolerance for the two stations becomes dependent on the propagation speed (typically, the speed of light) rather that the speed of point P, in order to accurately measure both $r_{1}^{\prime }\pm r_{2}^{\prime }$.
While not implemented operationally, hybrid multilateration systems have been investigated for aircraft surveillance near airports and as a GPS navigation backup system for aviation.[20]
Preliminary and final computations
The position accuracy of a true-range multilateration system—e.g., accuracy of the $(x,y)$ coordinates of point P in Fig. 1 -- depends upon two factors: (1) the range measurement accuracy, and (2) the geometric relationship of P to the system's stations C1 and C2. This can be understood from Fig. 4. The two stations are shown as dots, and BLU denotes baseline units. (The measurement pattern is symmetric about both the baseline and the perpendicular bisector of the baseline, and is truncated in the figure.) As is commonly done, individual range measurement errors are taken to be independent of range, statistically independent and identically distributed. This reasonable assumption separates the effects of user-station geometry and range measurement errors on the error in the calculated $(x,y)$ coordinates of P. Here, the measurement geometry is simply the angle at which two circles cross—or equivalently, the angle between lines P-C1 and P-C2. When point P- is not on a circle, the error in its position is approximately proportional to the area bounded by the nearest two blue and nearest two magenta circles.
Without redundant measurements, a true-range multilateration system can be no more accurate than the range measurements, but can be significantly less accurate if the measurement geometry is not chosen properly. Accordingly, some applications place restrictions on the location of point P. For a 2-D Cartesian (trilateration) situation, these restrictions take one of two equivalent forms:
• The allowable interior angle at P between lines P-C1 and P-C2: The ideal is a right angle, which occurs at distances from the baseline of one-half or less of the baseline length; maximum allowable deviations from the ideal 90 degrees may be specified.
• The horizontal dilution of precision (HDOP), which multiplies the range error in determining the position error: For two dimensions, the ideal (minimum) HDOP is the square root of 2 (${\sqrt {2}}\approx 1.414$), which occurs when the angle between P-C1 and P-C2 is 90 degrees; a maximum allowable HDOP value may be specified. (Here, equal HDOPs are simply the locus of points in Fig. 4 having the same crossing angle.)
Planning a true-range multilateration navigation or surveillance system often involves a dilution of precision (DOP) analysis to inform decisions on the number and location of the stations and the system's service area (two dimensions) or service volume (three dimensions).[21][22] Fig. 5 shows horizontal DOPs (HDOPs) for a 2-D, two-station true-range multilateration system. HDOP is infinite along the baseline and its extensions, as only one of the two dimensions is actually measured. A user of such a system should be roughly broadside of the baseline and within an application-dependent range band. For example, for DME/DME navigation fixes by aircraft, the maximum HDOP permitted by the U.S. FAA is twice the minimum possible value, or 2.828,[23] which limits the maximum usage range (which occurs along the baseline bisector) to 1.866 times the baseline length. (The plane containing two DME ground stations and an aircraft in not strictly horizontal, but usually is nearly so.) Similarly, surveyors select point P in Fig. 1 so that C1-C2-P roughly form an equilateral triangle (where HDOP = 1.633).
Errors in trilateration surveys are discussed in several documents.[24][25] Generally, emphasis is placed on the effects of range measurement errors, rather than on the effects of algorithm numerical errors.

• Experimental Loran-C technique[2]
Advantages and disadvantages for vehicle navigation and surveillance
Navigation and surveillance systems typically involve vehicles and require that a government entity or other organization deploy multiple stations that employ a form of radio technology (i.e., utilize electromagnetic waves). The advantages and disadvantages of employing true-range multilateration for such a system are shown in the following table.
Advantages Disadvantages
• Station locations are flexible; they can be placed centrally or peripherally
• Accuracy degrades slowly with distance from station (generally better than pseudo-range multilateration)
• Requires one fewer station than a pseudo range multilateration system
• Station synchronization is not demanding (based on speed of point of interest, and may be addressed by dead reckoning)
• Often a user is required to have both a transmitter and a receiver
• Cooperative system accuracy is sensitive to equipment turn-around error
• Cannot be used for stealth surveillance
• Non-cooperative surveillance involves path losses to the fourth power of distance
True-range multilateration is often contrasted with (pseudo range) multilateration, as both require a form of user ranges to multiple stations. Complexity and cost of user equipage is likely the most important factor in limiting use of true-range multilateration for vehicle navigation and surveillance. Some uses are not the original purpose for system deployment – e.g., DME/DME aircraft navigation.

Truth value
In logic and mathematics, a truth value, sometimes called a logical value, is a value indicating the relation of a proposition to truth, which in classical logic has only two possible values (true or false).[1][2]
Computing
In some programming languages, any expression can be evaluated in a context that expects a Boolean data type. Typically (though this varies by programming language) expressions like the number zero, the empty string, empty lists, and null evaluate to false, and strings with content (like "abc"), other numbers, and objects evaluate to true. Sometimes these classes of expressions are called "truthy" and "falsy" / "false".
Classical logic
⊤ ·∧·
true conjunction
¬ ↕ ↕
⊥ ·∨·
false disjunction
Negation interchanges
true with false and
conjunction with disjunction.
In classical logic, with its intended semantics, the truth values are true (denoted by 1 or the verum ⊤), and untrue or false (denoted by 0 or the falsum ⊥); that is, classical logic is a two-valued logic. This set of two values is also called the Boolean domain. Corresponding semantics of logical connectives are truth functions, whose values are expressed in the form of truth tables. Logical biconditional becomes the equality binary relation, and negation becomes a bijection which permutes true and false. Conjunction and disjunction are dual with respect to negation, which is expressed by De Morgan's laws:
¬(p ∧ q) ⇔ ¬p ∨ ¬q

Propositional variables become variables in the Boolean domain. Assigning values for propositional variables is referred to as valuation.
Intuitionistic and constructive logic
Main article: Constructivism (mathematics)
In intuitionistic logic, and more generally, constructive mathematics, statements are assigned a truth value only if they can be given a constructive proof. It starts with a set of axioms, and a statement is true if one can build a proof of the statement from those axioms. A statement is false if one can deduce a contradiction from it. This leaves open the possibility of statements that have not yet been assigned a truth value. Unproven statements in intuitionistic logic are not given an intermediate truth value (as is sometimes mistakenly asserted). Indeed, one can prove that they have no third truth value, a result dating back to Glivenko in 1928.[3]
Instead, statements simply remain of unknown truth value, until they are either proven or disproven.
There are various ways of interpreting intuitionistic logic, including the Brouwer–Heyting–Kolmogorov interpretation. See also Intuitionistic logic § Semantics.
Multi-valued logic
Multi-valued logics (such as fuzzy logic and relevance logic) allow for more than two truth values, possibly containing some internal structure. For example, on the unit interval [0,1] such structure is a total order; this may be expressed as the existence of various degrees of truth.
Algebraic semantics
Main article: Algebraic logic
Not all logical systems are truth-valuational in the sense that logical connectives may be interpreted as truth functions. For example, intuitionistic logic lacks a complete set of truth values because its semantics, the Brouwer–Heyting–Kolmogorov interpretation, is specified in terms of provability conditions, and not directly in terms of the necessary truth of formulae.
But even non-truth-valuational logics can associate values with logical formulae, as is done in algebraic semantics. The algebraic semantics of intuitionistic logic is given in terms of Heyting algebras, compared to Boolean algebra semantics of classical propositional calculus.
In other theories
Intuitionistic type theory uses types in the place of truth values.
Topos theory uses truth values in a special sense: the truth values of a topos are the global elements of the subobject classifier. Having truth values in this sense does not make a logic truth valuational.

True arithmetic
In mathematical logic, true arithmetic is the set of all true first-order statements about the arithmetic of natural numbers.[1] This is the theory associated with the standard model of the Peano axioms in the language of the first-order Peano axioms. True arithmetic is occasionally called Skolem arithmetic, though this term usually refers to the different theory of natural numbers with multiplication.
Definition
The signature of Peano arithmetic includes the addition, multiplication, and successor function symbols, the equality and less-than relation symbols, and a constant symbol for 0. The (well-formed) formulas of the language of first-order arithmetic are built up from these symbols together with the logical symbols in the usual manner of first-order logic.
The structure ${\mathcal {N}}$ is defined to be a model of Peano arithmetic as follows.
• The domain of discourse is the set $\mathbb {N} $ of natural numbers,
• The symbol 0 is interpreted as the number 0,
• The function symbols are interpreted as the usual arithmetical operations on $\mathbb {N} $,
• The equality and less-than relation symbols are interpreted as the usual equality and order relation on $\mathbb {N} $.
This structure is known as the standard model or intended interpretation of first-order arithmetic.
A sentence in the language of first-order arithmetic is said to be true in ${\mathcal {N}}$ if it is true in the structure just defined. The notation ${\mathcal {N}}\models \varphi $ is used to indicate that the sentence $\varphi $ is true in ${\mathcal {N}}.$
True arithmetic is defined to be the set of all sentences in the language of first-order arithmetic that are true in ${\mathcal {N}}$, written Th(${\mathcal {N}}$). This set is, equivalently, the (complete) theory of the structure ${\mathcal {N}}$.[2]
Arithmetic undefinability
The central result on true arithmetic is the undefinability theorem of Alfred Tarski (1936). It states that the set Th(${\mathcal {N}}$) is not arithmetically definable. This means that there is no formula $\varphi (x)$ in the language of first-order arithmetic such that, for every sentence θ in this language,
${\mathcal {N}}\models \theta \quad {\text{if and only if}}\quad {\mathcal {N}}\models \varphi ({\underline {\#(\theta )}}).$
Here ${\underline {\#(\theta )}}$ is the numeral of the canonical Gödel number of the sentence θ.
Post's theorem is a sharper version of the undefinability theorem that shows a relationship between the definability of Th(${\mathcal {N}}$) and the Turing degrees, using the arithmetical hierarchy. For each natural number n, let Thn(${\mathcal {N}}$) be the subset of Th(${\mathcal {N}}$) consisting of only sentences that are $\Sigma _{n}^{0}$ or lower in the arithmetical hierarchy. Post's theorem shows that, for each n, Thn(${\mathcal {N}}$) is arithmetically definable, but only by a formula of complexity higher than $\Sigma _{n}^{0}$. Thus no single formula can define Th(${\mathcal {N}}$), because
${\mbox{Th}}({\mathcal {N}})=\bigcup _{n\in \mathbb {N} }{\mbox{Th}}_{n}({\mathcal {N}})$
but no single formula can define Thn(${\mathcal {N}}$) for arbitrarily large n.
Computability properties
As discussed above, Th(${\mathcal {N}}$) is not arithmetically definable, by Tarski's theorem. A corollary of Post's theorem establishes that the Turing degree of Th(${\mathcal {N}}$) is 0(ω), and so Th(${\mathcal {N}}$) is not decidable nor recursively enumerable.
Th(${\mathcal {N}}$) is closely related to the theory Th(${\mathcal {R}}$) of the recursively enumerable Turing degrees, in the signature of partial orders.[3] In particular, there are computable functions S and T such that:
• For each sentence φ in the signature of first-order arithmetic, φ is in Th(${\mathcal {N}}$) if and only if S(φ) is in Th(${\mathcal {R}}$).
• For each sentence ψ in the signature of partial orders, ψ is in Th(${\mathcal {R}}$) if and only if T(ψ) is in Th(${\mathcal {N}}$).
Model-theoretic properties
True arithmetic is an unstable theory, and so has $2^{\kappa }$ models for each uncountable cardinal $\kappa $. As there are continuum many types over the empty set, true arithmetic also has $2^{\aleph _{0}}$ countable models. Since the theory is complete, all of its models are elementarily equivalent.
True theory of second-order arithmetic
The true theory of second-order arithmetic consists of all the sentences in the language of second-order arithmetic that are satisfied by the standard model of second-order arithmetic, whose first-order part is the structure ${\mathcal {N}}$ and whose second-order part consists of every subset of $\mathbb {N} $.
The true theory of first-order arithmetic, Th(${\mathcal {N}}$), is a subset of the true theory of second-order arithmetic, and Th(${\mathcal {N}}$) is definable in second-order arithmetic. However, the generalization of Post's theorem to the analytical hierarchy shows that the true theory of second-order arithmetic is not definable by any single formula in second-order arithmetic.
Simpson (1977) has shown that the true theory of second-order arithmetic is computably interpretable with the theory of the partial order of all Turing degrees, in the signature of partial orders, and vice versa.

Truncated 5-cell
In geometry, a truncated 5-cell is a uniform 4-polytope (4-dimensional uniform polytope) formed as the truncation of the regular 5-cell.

The truncated 5-cell, truncated pentachoron or truncated 4-simplex is bounded by 10 cells: 5 tetrahedra, and 5 truncated tetrahedra. Each vertex is surrounded by 3 truncated tetrahedra and one tetrahedron; the vertex figure is an elongated tetrahedron.
Construction
The truncated 5-cell may be constructed from the 5-cell by truncating its vertices at 1/3 of its edge length. This transforms the 5 tetrahedral cells into truncated tetrahedra, and introduces 5 new tetrahedral cells positioned near the original vertices.
Structure
The truncated tetrahedra are joined to each other at their hexagonal faces, and to the tetrahedra at their triangular faces.
Seen in a configuration matrix, all incidence counts between elements are shown. The diagonal f-vector numbers are derived through the Wythoff construction, dividing the full group order of a subgroup order by removing one mirror at a time.[1]

Projections
The truncated tetrahedron-first Schlegel diagram projection of the truncated 5-cell into 3-dimensional space has the following structure:
• The projection envelope is a truncated tetrahedron.
• One of the truncated tetrahedral cells project onto the entire envelope.
• One of the tetrahedral cells project onto a tetrahedron lying at the center of the envelope.
• Four flattened tetrahedra are joined to the triangular faces of the envelope, and connected to the central tetrahedron via 4 radial edges. These are the images of the remaining 4 tetrahedral cells.
• Between the central tetrahedron and the 4 hexagonal faces of the envelope are 4 irregular truncated tetrahedral volumes, which are the images of the 4 remaining truncated tetrahedral cells.
This layout of cells in projection is analogous to the layout of faces in the face-first projection of the truncated tetrahedron into 2-dimensional space. The truncated 5-cell is the 4-dimensional analogue of the truncated tetrahedron.

More simply, the vertices of the truncated 5-cell can be constructed on a hyperplane in 5-space as permutations of (0,0,0,1,2) or of (0,1,2,2,2). These coordinates come from positive orthant facets of the truncated pentacross and bitruncated penteract respectively.
Related polytopes
The convex hull of the truncated 5-cell and its dual (assuming that they are congruent) is a nonuniform polychoron composed of 60 cells: 10 tetrahedra, 20 octahedra (as triangular antiprisms), 30 tetrahedra (as tetragonal disphenoids), and 40 vertices. Its vertex figure is a hexakis triangular cupola.

The bitruncated 5-cell (also called a bitruncated pentachoron, decachoron and 10-cell) is a 4-dimensional polytope, or 4-polytope, composed of 10 cells in the shape of truncated tetrahedra.
Topologically, under its highest symmetry, [[3,3,3]], there is only one geometrical form, containing 10 uniform truncated tetrahedra. The hexagons are always regular because of the polychoron's inversion symmetry, of which the regular hexagon is the only such case among ditrigons (an isogonal hexagon with 3-fold symmetry).
E. L. Elte identified it in 1912 as a semiregular polytope.
Each hexagonal face of the truncated tetrahedra is joined in complementary orientation to the neighboring truncated tetrahedron. Each edge is shared by two hexagons and one triangle. Each vertex is surrounded by 4 truncated tetrahedral cells in a tetragonal disphenoid vertex figure.
The bitruncated 5-cell is the intersection of two pentachora in dual configuration. As such, it is also the intersection of a penteract with the hyperplane that bisects the penteract's long diagonal orthogonally. In this sense it is a 4-dimensional analog of the regular octahedron (intersection of regular tetrahedra in dual configuration / tesseract bisection on long diagonal) and the regular hexagon (equilateral triangles / cube). The 5-dimensional analog is the birectified 5-simplex, and the $n$-dimensional analog is the polytope whose Coxeter–Dynkin diagram is linear with rings on the middle one or two nodes.
The bitruncated 5-cell is one of the two non-regular convex uniform 4-polytopes which are cell-transitive. The other is the bitruncated 24-cell, which is composed of 48 truncated cubes.
Symmetry
This 4-polytope has a higher extended pentachoric symmetry (2×A4, [[3,3,3]]), doubled to order 240, because the element corresponding to any element of the underlying 5-cell can be exchanged with one of those corresponding to an element of its dual.

More simply, the vertices of the bitruncated 5-cell can be constructed on a hyperplane in 5-space as permutations of (0,0,1,2,2). These represent positive orthant facets of the bitruncated pentacross. Another 5-space construction, centered on the origin are all 20 permutations of (-1,-1,0,1,1).

The regular skew polyhedron, {6,4|3}, exists in 4-space with 4 hexagonal around each vertex, in a zig-zagging nonplanar vertex figure. These hexagonal faces can be seen on the bitruncated 5-cell, using all 60 edges and 30 vertices. The 20 triangular faces of the bitruncated 5-cell can be seen as removed. The dual regular skew polyhedron, {4,6|3}, is similarly related to the square faces of the runcinated 5-cell.

Being the dual of a uniform polychoron, it is cell-transitive, consisting of 30 congruent tetragonal disphenoids. In addition, it is vertex-transitive under the group Aut(A4).
Related polytopes
These polytope are from a set of 9 uniform 4-polytope constructed from the [3,3,3] Coxeter group.

Cyclotruncated 5-simplex honeycomb
In five-dimensional Euclidean geometry, the cyclotruncated 5-simplex honeycomb or cyclotruncated hexateric honeycomb is a space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb). It is composed of 5-simplex, truncated 5-simplex, and bitruncated 5-simplex facets in a ratio of 1:1:1.

Structure
Its vertex figure is an elongated 5-cell antiprism, two parallel 5-cells in dual configurations, connected by 10 tetrahedral pyramids (elongated 5-cells) from the cell of one side to a point on the other. The vertex figure has 8 vertices and 12 5-cells.
It can be constructed as six sets of parallel hyperplanes that divide space. The hyperplane intersections generate cyclotruncated 5-cell honeycomb divisions on each hyperplane.
Related polytopes and honeycombs
This honeycomb is one of 12 unique uniform honeycombs[1] constructed by the ${\tilde {A}}_{5}$ Coxeter group. The extended symmetry of the hexagonal diagram of the ${\tilde {A}}_{5}$ Coxeter group allows for automorphisms that map diagram nodes (mirrors) on to each other. So the various 12 honeycombs represent higher symmetries based on the ring arrangement symmetry in the diagrams:

Cyclotruncated 6-simplex honeycomb
In six-dimensional Euclidean geometry, the cyclotruncated 6-simplex honeycomb is a space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb). The tessellation fills space by 6-simplex, truncated 6-simplex, bitruncated 6-simplex, and tritruncated 6-simplex facets. These facet types occur in proportions of 2:2:2:1 respectively in the whole honeycomb.

A uniform 7-polytope is vertex-transitive and constructed from uniform 6-polytope facets, and can be represented a coxeter diagram with ringed nodes representing active mirrors. A demihypercube is an alternation of a hypercube.
Its 3-dimensional analogue would be a truncated tetrahedron (truncated 3-demicube), and Coxeter diagram or as a cantic cube.

Cartesian coordinates
The Cartesian coordinates for the 1344 vertices of a truncated 7-demicube centered at the origin and edge length 6√2 are coordinate permutations:
(±1,±1,±3,±3,±3,±3,±3)
with an odd number of plus signs.
Images
It can be visualized as a 2-dimensional orthogonal projections, for example the a D7 Coxeter plane, containing 12-gonal symmetry. Most visualizations in symmetric projections will contain overlapping vertices, so the colors of the vertices are changed based on how many vertices are at each projective position, here shown with red color for no overlaps.

Cyclotruncated 7-simplex honeycomb
In seven-dimensional Euclidean geometry, the cyclotruncated 7-simplex honeycomb is a space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb). The tessellation fills space by 7-simplex, truncated 7-simplex, bitruncated 7-simplex, and tritruncated 7-simplex facets. These facet types occur in proportions of 1:1:1:1 respectively in the whole honeycomb.

Cyclotruncated 8-simplex honeycomb
In eight-dimensional Euclidean geometry, the cyclotruncated 8-simplex honeycomb is a space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb). The tessellation fills space by 8-simplex, truncated 8-simplex, bitruncated 8-simplex, tritruncated 8-simplex, and quadritruncated 8-simplex facets. These facet types occur in proportions of 2:2:2:2:1 respectively in the whole honeycomb.

Truncated Newton method
The truncated Newton method, originated in a paper by Ron Dembo and Trond Steihaug,[1] also known as Hessian-free optimization,[2] are a family of optimization algorithms designed for optimizing non-linear functions with large numbers of independent variables. A truncated Newton method consists of repeated application of an iterative optimization algorithm to approximately solve Newton's equations, to determine an update to the function's parameters. The inner solver is truncated, i.e., run for only a limited number of iterations. It follows that, for truncated Newton methods to work, the inner solver needs to produce a good approximation in a finite number of iterations;[3] conjugate gradient has been suggested and evaluated as a candidate inner loop.[2] Another prerequisite is good preconditioning for the inner algorithm.[4]

Pareto distribution
The Pareto distribution, named after the Italian civil engineer, economist, and sociologist Vilfredo Pareto,[2] is a power-law probability distribution that is used in description of social, quality control, scientific, geophysical, actuarial, and many other types of observable phenomena; the principle originally applied to describing the distribution of wealth in a society, fitting the trend that a large portion of wealth is held by a small fraction of the population.[3][4] The Pareto principle or "80-20 rule" stating that 80% of outcomes are due to 20% of causes was named in honour of Pareto, but the concepts are distinct, and only Pareto distributions with shape value (α) of log45 ≈ 1.16 precisely reflect it. Empirical observation has shown that this 80-20 distribution fits a wide range of cases, including natural phenomena[5] and human activities.[6][7]
Pareto Type I
Probability density function
Pareto Type I probability density functions for various $\alpha $ with $x_{\mathrm {m} }=1.$ As $\alpha \rightarrow \infty ,$ the distribution approaches $\delta (x-x_{\mathrm {m} }),$ where $\delta $ is the Dirac delta function.
Cumulative distribution function
Pareto Type I cumulative distribution functions for various $\alpha $ with $x_{\mathrm {m} }=1.$
Parameters $x_{\mathrm {m} }>0$ scale (real)
$\alpha >0$ shape (real)
Support $x\in [x_{\mathrm {m} },\infty )$

Mean ${\begin{cases}\infty &{\text{for }}\alpha \leq 1\\{\dfrac {\alpha x_{\mathrm {m} }}{\alpha -1}}&{\text{for }}\alpha >1\end{cases}}$
Median $x_{\mathrm {m} }{\sqrt[{\alpha }]{2}}$
Mode $x_{\mathrm {m} }$
Variance ${\begin{cases}\infty &{\text{for }}\alpha \leq 2\\{\dfrac {x_{\mathrm {m} }^{2}\alpha }{(\alpha -1)^{2}(\alpha -2)}}&{\text{for }}\alpha >2\end{cases}}$
Skewness ${\frac {2(1+\alpha )}{\alpha -3}}{\sqrt {\frac {\alpha -2}{\alpha }}}{\text{ for }}\alpha >3$
Ex. kurtosis ${\frac {6(\alpha ^{3}+\alpha ^{2}-6\alpha -2)}{\alpha (\alpha -3)(\alpha -4)}}{\text{ for }}\alpha >4$

Definitions
If X is a random variable with a Pareto (Type I) distribution,[8] then the probability that X is greater than some number x, i.e. the survival function (also called tail function), is given by
${\overline {F}}(x)=\Pr(X>x)={\begin{cases}\left({\frac {x_{\mathrm {m} }}{x}}\right)^{\alpha }&x\geq x_{\mathrm {m} },\\1&x<x_{\mathrm {m} },\end{cases}}$
where xm is the (necessarily positive) minimum possible value of X, and α is a positive parameter. The Pareto Type I distribution is characterized by a scale parameter xm and a shape parameter α, which is known as the tail index. When this distribution is used to model the distribution of wealth, then the parameter α is called the Pareto index.
Cumulative distribution function
From the definition, the cumulative distribution function of a Pareto random variable with parameters α and xm is
$F_{X}(x)={\begin{cases}1-\left({\frac {x_{\mathrm {m} }}{x}}\right)^{\alpha }&x\geq x_{\mathrm {m} },\\0&x<x_{\mathrm {m} }.\end{cases}}$
Probability density function
It follows (by differentiation) that the probability density function is
$f_{X}(x)={\begin{cases}{\frac {\alpha x_{\mathrm {m} }^{\alpha }}{x^{\alpha +1}}}&x\geq x_{\mathrm {m} },\\0&x<x_{\mathrm {m} }.\end{cases}}$
When plotted on linear axes, the distribution assumes the familiar J-shaped curve which approaches each of the orthogonal axes asymptotically. All segments of the curve are self-similar (subject to appropriate scaling factors). When plotted in a log-log plot, the distribution is represented by a straight line.
Properties
Moments and characteristic function
• The expected value of a random variable following a Pareto distribution is
$\operatorname {E} (X)={\begin{cases}\infty &\alpha \leq 1,\\{\frac {\alpha x_{\mathrm {m} }}{\alpha -1}}&\alpha >1.\end{cases}}$
• The variance of a random variable following a Pareto distribution is
$\operatorname {Var} (X)={\begin{cases}\infty &\alpha \in (1,2],\\\left({\frac {x_{\mathrm {m} }}{\alpha -1}}\right)^{2}{\frac {\alpha }{\alpha -2}}&\alpha >2.\end{cases}}$
(If α ≤ 1, the variance does not exist.)
• The raw moments are
$\mu _{n}'={\begin{cases}\infty &\alpha \leq n,\\{\frac {\alpha x_{\mathrm {m} }^{n}}{\alpha -n}}&\alpha >n.\end{cases}}$
• The moment generating function is only defined for non-positive values t ≤ 0 as
$M\left(t;\alpha ,x_{\mathrm {m} }\right)=\operatorname {E} \left[e^{tX}\right]=\alpha (-x_{\mathrm {m} }t)^{\alpha }\Gamma (-\alpha ,-x_{\mathrm {m} }t)$
$M\left(0,\alpha ,x_{\mathrm {m} }\right)=1.$
Thus, since the expectation does not converge on an open interval containing $t=0$ we say that the moment generating function does not exist.
• The characteristic function is given by
$\varphi (t;\alpha ,x_{\mathrm {m} })=\alpha (-ix_{\mathrm {m} }t)^{\alpha }\Gamma (-\alpha ,-ix_{\mathrm {m} }t),$
where Γ(a, x) is the incomplete gamma function.
The parameters may be solved for using the method of moments.[9]
Conditional distributions
The conditional probability distribution of a Pareto-distributed random variable, given the event that it is greater than or equal to a particular number $x_{1}$ exceeding $x_{\text{m}}$, is a Pareto distribution with the same Pareto index $\alpha $ but with minimum $x_{1}$ instead of $x_{\text{m}}$. This implies that the conditional expected value (if it is finite, i.e. $\alpha >1$) is proportional to $x_{1}$. In case of random variables that describe the lifetime of an object, this means that life expectancy is proportional to age, and is called the Lindy effect or Lindy's Law.[10]
A characterization theorem
Suppose $X_{1},X_{2},X_{3},\dotsc $ are independent identically distributed random variables whose probability distribution is supported on the interval $[x_{\text{m}},\infty )$ for some $x_{\text{m}}>0$. Suppose that for all $n$, the two random variables $\min\{X_{1},\dotsc ,X_{n}\}$ and $(X_{1}+\dotsb +X_{n})/\min\{X_{1},\dotsc ,X_{n}\}$ are independent. Then the common distribution is a Pareto distribution.
Geometric mean
The geometric mean (G) is[11]
$G=x_{\text{m}}\exp \left({\frac {1}{\alpha }}\right).$
Harmonic mean
The harmonic mean (H) is[11]
$H=x_{\text{m}}\left(1+{\frac {1}{\alpha }}\right).$
Graphical representation
The characteristic curved 'long tail' distribution when plotted on a linear scale, masks the underlying simplicity of the function when plotted on a log-log graph, which then takes the form of a straight line with negative gradient: It follows from the formula for the probability density function that for x ≥ xm,
$\log f_{X}(x)=\log \left(\alpha {\frac {x_{\mathrm {m} }^{\alpha }}{x^{\alpha +1}}}\right)=\log(\alpha x_{\mathrm {m} }^{\alpha })-(\alpha +1)\log x.$
Since α is positive, the gradient −(α + 1) is negative.

There is a hierarchy [8][12] of Pareto distributions known as Pareto Type I, II, III, IV, and Feller–Pareto distributions.[8][12][13] Pareto Type IV contains Pareto Type I–III as special cases. The Feller–Pareto[12][14] distribution generalizes Pareto Type IV.
Pareto types I–IV
The Pareto distribution hierarchy is summarized in the next table comparing the survival functions (complementary CDF).
When μ = 0, the Pareto distribution Type II is also known as the Lomax distribution.[15]
In this section, the symbol xm, used before to indicate the minimum value of x, is replaced by σ.

Type IV $\left[1+\left({\frac {x-\mu }{\sigma }}\right)^{1/\gamma }\right]^{-\alpha }$ $x\geq \mu $ $\mu \in \mathbb {R} ,\sigma ,\gamma >0,\alpha $
The shape parameter α is the tail index, μ is location, σ is scale, γ is an inequality parameter. Some special cases of Pareto Type (IV) are
$P(IV)(\sigma ,\sigma ,1,\alpha )=P(I)(\sigma ,\alpha ),$
$P(IV)(\mu ,\sigma ,1,\alpha )=P(II)(\mu ,\sigma ,\alpha ),$
$P(IV)(\mu ,\sigma ,\gamma ,1)=P(III)(\mu ,\sigma ,\gamma ).$
The finiteness of the mean, and the existence and the finiteness of the variance depend on the tail index α (inequality index γ). In particular, fractional δ-moments are finite for some δ > 0, as shown in the table below, where δ is not necessarily an integer.

Feller–Pareto distribution
Feller[12][14] defines a Pareto variable by transformation U = Y−1 − 1 of a beta random variable Y, whose probability density function is
$f(y)={\frac {y^{\gamma _{1}-1}(1-y)^{\gamma _{2}-1}}{B(\gamma _{1},\gamma _{2})}},\qquad 0<y<1;\gamma _{1},\gamma _{2}>0,$
where B( ) is the beta function. If
$W=\mu +\sigma (Y^{-1}-1)^{\gamma },\qquad \sigma >0,\gamma >0,$
then W has a Feller–Pareto distribution FP(μ, σ, γ, γ1, γ2).[8]
If $U_{1}\sim \Gamma (\delta _{1},1)$ and $U_{2}\sim \Gamma (\delta _{2},1)$ are independent Gamma variables, another construction of a Feller–Pareto (FP) variable is[16]
$W=\mu +\sigma \left({\frac {U_{1}}{U_{2}}}\right)^{\gamma }$
and we write W ~ FP(μ, σ, γ, δ1, δ2). Special cases of the Feller–Pareto distribution are
$FP(\sigma ,\sigma ,1,1,\alpha )=P(I)(\sigma ,\alpha )$
$FP(\mu ,\sigma ,1,1,\alpha )=P(II)(\mu ,\sigma ,\alpha )$
$FP(\mu ,\sigma ,\gamma ,1,1)=P(III)(\mu ,\sigma ,\gamma )$
$FP(\mu ,\sigma ,\gamma ,1,\alpha )=P(IV)(\mu ,\sigma ,\gamma ,\alpha ).$
Inverse-Pareto Distribution / Power Distribution
When a random variable $Y$ follows a pareto distribution, then its inverse $X=1/Y$ follows an Inverse Pareto distribution. Inverse Pareto distribution is equivalent to a Power distribution[17]
$Y\sim \mathrm {Pa} (\alpha ,x_{m})={\frac {\alpha x_{m}^{\alpha }}{y^{\alpha +1}}}\quad (y\geq x_{m})\quad \Leftrightarrow \quad X\sim \mathrm {iPa} (\alpha ,x_{m})=\mathrm {Power} (x_{m}^{-1},\alpha )={\frac {\alpha x^{\alpha -1}}{(x_{m}^{-1})^{\alpha }}}\quad (0<x\leq x_{m}^{-1})$
Relation to the exponential distribution
The Pareto distribution is related to the exponential distribution as follows. If X is Pareto-distributed with minimum xm and index α, then
$Y=\log \left({\frac {X}{x_{\mathrm {m} }}}\right)$
is exponentially distributed with rate parameter α. Equivalently, if Y is exponentially distributed with rate α, then
$x_{\mathrm {m} }e^{Y}$
is Pareto-distributed with minimum xm and index α.
This can be shown using the standard change-of-variable techniques:
${\begin{aligned}\Pr(Y<y)&=\Pr \left(\log \left({\frac {X}{x_{\mathrm {m} }}}\right)<y\right)\\&=\Pr(X<x_{\mathrm {m} }e^{y})=1-\left({\frac {x_{\mathrm {m} }}{x_{\mathrm {m} }e^{y}}}\right)^{\alpha }=1-e^{-\alpha y}.\end{aligned}}$
The last expression is the cumulative distribution function of an exponential distribution with rate α.
Pareto distribution can be constructed by hierarchical exponential distributions.[18] Let $\phi |a\sim {\text{Exp}}(a)$ and $\eta |\phi \sim {\text{Exp}}(\phi )$. Then we have $p(\eta |a)={\frac {a}{(a+\eta )^{2}}}$ and, as a result, $a+\eta \sim {\text{Pareto}}(a,1)$.
More in general, if $\lambda \sim {\text{Gamma}}(\alpha ,\beta )$ (shape-rate parametrization) and $\eta |\lambda \sim {\text{Exp}}(\lambda )$, then $\beta +\eta \sim {\text{Pareto}}(\beta ,\alpha )$.
Equivalently, if $Y\sim {\text{Gamma}}(\alpha ,1)$ and $X\sim {\text{Exp}}(1)$, then $x_{\text{m}}\!\left(1+{\frac {X}{Y}}\right)\sim {\text{Pareto}}(x_{\text{m}},\alpha )$.
Relation to the log-normal distribution
The Pareto distribution and log-normal distribution are alternative distributions for describing the same types of quantities. One of the connections between the two is that they are both the distributions of the exponential of random variables distributed according to other common distributions, respectively the exponential distribution and normal distribution. (See the previous section.)
Relation to the generalized Pareto distribution
The Pareto distribution is a special case of the generalized Pareto distribution, which is a family of distributions of similar form, but containing an extra parameter in such a way that the support of the distribution is either bounded below (at a variable point), or bounded both above and below (where both are variable), with the Lomax distribution as a special case. This family also contains both the unshifted and shifted exponential distributions.
The Pareto distribution with scale $x_{m}$ and shape $\alpha $ is equivalent to the generalized Pareto distribution with location $\mu =x_{m}$, scale $\sigma =x_{m}/\alpha $ and shape $\xi =1/\alpha $. Vice versa one can get the Pareto distribution from the GPD by $x_{m}=\sigma /\xi $ and $\alpha =1/\xi $.

The bounded (or truncated) Pareto distribution has three parameters: α, L and H. As in the standard Pareto distribution α determines the shape. L denotes the minimal value, and H denotes the maximal value.
The probability density function is
${\frac {\alpha L^{\alpha }x^{-\alpha -1}}{1-\left({\frac {L}{H}}\right)^{\alpha }}}$,
where L ≤ x ≤ H, and α > 0.
Generating bounded Pareto random variables
If U is uniformly distributed on (0, 1), then applying inverse-transform method [19]
$U={\frac {1-L^{\alpha }x^{-\alpha }}{1-({\frac {L}{H}})^{\alpha }}}$
$x=\left(-{\frac {UH^{\alpha }-UL^{\alpha }-H^{\alpha }}{H^{\alpha }L^{\alpha }}}\right)^{-{\frac {1}{\alpha }}}$
is a bounded Pareto-distributed.
Symmetric Pareto distribution
The purpose of Symmetric Pareto distribution and Zero Symmetric Pareto distribution is to capture some special statistical distribution with a sharp probability peak and symmetric long probability tails. These two distributions are derived from Pareto distribution. Long probability tail normally means that probability decays slowly. Pareto distribution performs fitting job in many cases. But if the distribution has symmetric structure with two slow decaying tails, Pareto could not do it. Then Symmetric Pareto or Zero Symmetric Pareto distribution is applied instead.[20]
The Cumulative distribution function (CDF) of Symmetric Pareto distribution is defined as following:[20]
$F(X)=P(x<X)={\begin{cases}{\tfrac {1}{2}}({b \over 2b-X})^{a}&X<b\\1-{\tfrac {1}{2}}({\tfrac {b}{X}})^{a}&X\geq b\end{cases}}$
The corresponding probability density function (PDF) is:[20]
$p(x)={ab^{a} \over 2(b+\left\vert x-b\right\vert )^{a+1}},X\in R$
This distribution has two parameters: a and b. It is symmetric by b. Then the mathematic expectation is b. When, it has variance as following:
$E((x-b)^{2})=\int _{-\infty }^{\infty }(x-b)^{2}p(x)dx={2b^{2} \over (a-2)(a-1)}$
The CDF of Zero Symmetric Pareto (ZSP) distribution is defined as following:
$F(X)=P(x<X)={\begin{cases}{\tfrac {1}{2}}({b \over b-X})^{a}&X<0\\1-{\tfrac {1}{2}}({\tfrac {b}{b+X}})^{a}&X\geq 0\end{cases}}$
The corresponding PDF is:
$p(x)={ab^{a} \over 2(b+\left\vert x\right\vert )^{a+1}},X\in R$
This distribution is symmetric by zero. Parameter a is related to the decay rate of probability and (a/2b) represents peak magnitude of probability.[20]
Multivariate Pareto distribution
The univariate Pareto distribution has been extended to a multivariate Pareto distribution.[21]
Statistical inference
Estimation of parameters
The likelihood function for the Pareto distribution parameters α and xm, given an independent sample x = (x1, x2, ..., xn), is
$L(\alpha ,x_{\mathrm {m} })=\prod _{i=1}^{n}\alpha {\frac {x_{\mathrm {m} }^{\alpha }}{x_{i}^{\alpha +1}}}=\alpha ^{n}x_{\mathrm {m} }^{n\alpha }\prod _{i=1}^{n}{\frac {1}{x_{i}^{\alpha +1}}}.$
Therefore, the logarithmic likelihood function is
$\ell (\alpha ,x_{\mathrm {m} })=n\ln \alpha +n\alpha \ln x_{\mathrm {m} }-(\alpha +1)\sum _{i=1}^{n}\ln x_{i}.$
It can be seen that $\ell (\alpha ,x_{\mathrm {m} })$ is monotonically increasing with xm, that is, the greater the value of xm, the greater the value of the likelihood function. Hence, since x ≥ xm, we conclude that
${\widehat {x}}_{\mathrm {m} }=\min _{i}{x_{i}}.$
To find the estimator for α, we compute the corresponding partial derivative and determine where it is zero:
${\frac {\partial \ell }{\partial \alpha }}={\frac {n}{\alpha }}+n\ln x_{\mathrm {m} }-\sum _{i=1}^{n}\ln x_{i}=0.$
Thus the maximum likelihood estimator for α is:
${\widehat {\alpha }}={\frac {n}{\sum _{i}\ln(x_{i}/{\widehat {x}}_{\mathrm {m} })}}.$
The expected statistical error is:[22]
$\sigma ={\frac {\widehat {\alpha }}{\sqrt {n}}}.$
Malik (1970)[23] gives the exact joint distribution of $({\hat {x}}_{\mathrm {m} },{\hat {\alpha }})$. In particular, ${\hat {x}}_{\mathrm {m} }$ and ${\hat {\alpha }}$ are independent and ${\hat {x}}_{\mathrm {m} }$ is Pareto with scale parameter xm and shape parameter nα, whereas ${\hat {\alpha }}$ has an inverse-gamma distribution with shape and scale parameters n − 1 and nα, respectively.
Occurrence and applications
General
Vilfredo Pareto originally used this distribution to describe the allocation of wealth among individuals since it seemed to show rather well the way that a larger portion of the wealth of any society is owned by a smaller percentage of the people in that society. He also used it to describe distribution of income.[4] This idea is sometimes expressed more simply as the Pareto principle or the "80-20 rule" which says that 20% of the population controls 80% of the wealth.[24] However, the 80-20 rule corresponds to a particular value of α, and in fact, Pareto's data on British income taxes in his Cours d'économie politique indicates that about 30% of the population had about 70% of the income. The probability density function (PDF) graph at the beginning of this article shows that the "probability" or fraction of the population that owns a small amount of wealth per person is rather high, and then decreases steadily as wealth increases. (The Pareto distribution is not realistic for wealth for the lower end, however. In fact, net worth may even be negative.) This distribution is not limited to describing wealth or income, but to many situations in which an equilibrium is found in the distribution of the "small" to the "large". The following examples are sometimes seen as approximately Pareto-distributed:
• The sizes of human settlements (few cities, many hamlets/villages)[25][26]
• File size distribution of Internet traffic which uses the TCP protocol (many smaller files, few larger ones)[25]
• Hard disk drive error rates[27]
• Clusters of Bose–Einstein condensate near absolute zero[28]
• The values of oil reserves in oil fields (a few large fields, many small fields)[25]
• The length distribution in jobs assigned to supercomputers (a few large ones, many small ones)[29]
• The standardized price returns on individual stocks [25]
• Sizes of sand particles [25]
• The size of meteorites
• Severity of large casualty losses for certain lines of business such as general liability, commercial auto, and workers compensation.[30][31]
• Amount of time a user on Steam will spend playing different games. (Some games get played a lot, but most get played almost never.)
• In hydrology the Pareto distribution is applied to extreme events such as annually maximum one-day rainfalls and river discharges.[32] The blue picture illustrates an example of fitting the Pareto distribution to ranked annually maximum one-day rainfalls showing also the 90% confidence belt based on the binomial distribution. The rainfall data are represented by plotting positions as part of the cumulative frequency analysis.
• In Electric Utility Distribution Reliability (80% of the Customer Minutes Interrupted occur on approximately 20% of the days in a given year).
Relation to Zipf's law
The Pareto distribution is a continuous probability distribution. Zipf's law, also sometimes called the zeta distribution, is a discrete distribution, separating the values into a simple ranking. Both are a simple power law with a negative exponent, scaled so that their cumulative distributions equal 1. Zipf's can be derived from the Pareto distribution if the $x$ values (incomes) are binned into $N$ ranks so that the number of people in each bin follows a 1/rank pattern. The distribution is normalized by defining $x_{m}$ so that $\alpha x_{\mathrm {m} }^{\alpha }={\frac {1}{H(N,\alpha -1)}}$ where $H(N,\alpha -1)$ is the generalized harmonic number. This makes Zipf's probability density function derivable from Pareto's.
$f(x)={\frac {\alpha x_{\mathrm {m} }^{\alpha }}{x^{\alpha +1}}}={\frac {1}{x^{s}H(N,s)}}$
where $s=\alpha -1$ and $x$ is an integer representing rank from 1 to N where N is the highest income bracket. So a randomly selected person (or word, website link, or city) from a population (or language, internet, or country) has $f(x)$ probability of ranking $x$.
Relation to the "Pareto principle"
The "80–20 law", according to which 20% of all people receive 80% of all income, and 20% of the most affluent 20% receive 80% of that 80%, and so on, holds precisely when the Pareto index is $\alpha =\log _{4}5={\cfrac {\log _{10}5}{\log _{10}4}}\approx 1.161$. This result can be derived from the Lorenz curve formula given below. Moreover, the following have been shown[33] to be mathematically equivalent:
• Income is distributed according to a Pareto distribution with index α > 1.
• There is some number 0 ≤ p ≤ 1/2 such that 100p % of all people receive 100(1 − p)% of all income, and similarly for every real (not necessarily integer) n > 0, 100pn % of all people receive 100(1 − p)n percentage of all income. α and p are related by
$1-{\frac {1}{\alpha }}={\frac {\ln(1-p)}{\ln(p)}}={\frac {\ln((1-p)^{n})}{\ln(p^{n})}}$
This does not apply only to income, but also to wealth, or to anything else that can be modeled by this distribution.
This excludes Pareto distributions in which 0 < α ≤ 1, which, as noted above, have an infinite expected value, and so cannot reasonably model income distribution.
Relation to Price's law
Price's square root law is sometimes offered as a property of or as similar to the Pareto distribution. However, the law only holds in the case that $\alpha =1$. Note that in this case, the total and expected amount of wealth are not defined, and the rule only applies asymptotically to random samples. The extended Pareto Principle mentioned above is a far more general rule.
Lorenz curve and Gini coefficient
The Lorenz curve is often used to characterize income and wealth distributions. For any distribution, the Lorenz curve L(F) is written in terms of the PDF f or the CDF F as
$L(F)={\frac {\int _{x_{\mathrm {m} }}^{x(F)}xf(x)\,dx}{\int _{x_{\mathrm {m} }}^{\infty }xf(x)\,dx}}={\frac {\int _{0}^{F}x(F')\,dF'}{\int _{0}^{1}x(F')\,dF'}}$
where x(F) is the inverse of the CDF. For the Pareto distribution,
$x(F)={\frac {x_{\mathrm {m} }}{(1-F)^{\frac {1}{\alpha }}}}$
and the Lorenz curve is calculated to be
$L(F)=1-(1-F)^{1-{\frac {1}{\alpha }}},$
For $0<\alpha \leq 1$ the denominator is infinite, yielding L=0. Examples of the Lorenz curve for a number of Pareto distributions are shown in the graph on the right.
According to Oxfam (2016) the richest 62 people have as much wealth as the poorest half of the world's population.[34] We can estimate the Pareto index that would apply to this situation. Letting ε equal $62/(7\times 10^{9})$ we have:
$L(1/2)=1-L(1-\varepsilon )$
or
$1-(1/2)^{1-{\frac {1}{\alpha }}}=\varepsilon ^{1-{\frac {1}{\alpha }}}$
The solution is that α equals about 1.15, and about 9% of the wealth is owned by each of the two groups. But actually the poorest 69% of the world adult population owns only about 3% of the wealth.[35]
The Gini coefficient is a measure of the deviation of the Lorenz curve from the equidistribution line which is a line connecting [0, 0] and [1, 1], which is shown in black (α = ∞) in the Lorenz plot on the right. Specifically, the Gini coefficient is twice the area between the Lorenz curve and the equidistribution line. The Gini coefficient for the Pareto distribution is then calculated (for $\alpha \geq 1$) to be
$G=1-2\left(\int _{0}^{1}L(F)\,dF\right)={\frac {1}{2\alpha -1}}$
(see Aaberge 2005).
Random variate generation
Random samples can be generated using inverse transform sampling. Given a random variate U drawn from the uniform distribution on the unit interval (0, 1], the variate T given by
$T={\frac {x_{\mathrm {m} }}{U^{1/\alpha }}}$
is Pareto-distributed.[36] If U is uniformly distributed on [0, 1), it can be exchanged with (1 − U).

Bifrustum
An n-agonal bifrustum is a polyhedron composed of three parallel planes of n-agons, with the middle plane largest and usually the top and bottom congruent.
Set of bifrusta
Example hexagonal bifrustum
Faces2 n-gons, 2n trapezoids
Edges5n
Vertices3n
Symmetry groupDnh, [n,2], (*n22)
Dual polyhedronElongated bipyramids
Propertiesconvex
It can be constructed as two congruent frusta combined across a plane of symmetry, and also as a bipyramid with the two polar vertices truncated.[1]
They are duals to the family of elongated bipyramids.
Formulae
For a regular n-gonal bifrustum with the equatorial polygon sides a, bases sides b and semi-height (half the distance between the planes of bases) h, the lateral surface area Al, total area A and volume V are:[2]
$A_{l}=n(a+b){\sqrt {\left({\frac {a-b}{2}}\cot {\frac {\pi }{n}}\right)^{2}+h^{2}}}\,,$
$A=A_{l}+n{\frac {b^{2}}{2\tan {\frac {\pi }{n}}}}\,,$
$V=n{\frac {a^{2}-b^{2}}{6\tan {\frac {\pi }{n}}}}h\,.$
Forms
Three bifrusta are duals to three Johnson solids, J14-16. In general, a n-agonal bifrustum has 2n trapezoids, 2 n-agons, and is dual to the elongated dipyramids.

Compound of five truncated tetrahedra
The compound of five truncated tetrahedra is a uniform polyhedron compound. It's composed of 5 truncated tetrahedra rotated around a common axis. It may be formed by truncating each of the tetrahedra in the compound of five tetrahedra. A far-enough truncation creates the compound of five octahedra. Its convex hull is a nonuniform snub dodecahedron.

Triakis octahedron
(dual polyhedron)
Net
If the truncated cube has unit edge length, its dual triakis octahedron has edges of lengths 2 and 2 + √2.
Area and volume
The area A and the volume V of a truncated cube of edge length a are:
${\begin{aligned}A&=2\left(6+6{\sqrt {2}}+{\sqrt {3}}\right)a^{2}&&\approx 32.434\,6644a^{2}\\V&={\frac {21+14{\sqrt {2}}}{3}}a^{3}&&\approx 13.599\,6633a^{3}.\end{aligned}}$
Orthogonal projections
The truncated cube has five special orthogonal projections, centered, on a vertex, on two types of edges, and two types of faces: triangles, and octagons. The last two correspond to the B2 and A2 Coxeter planes.

Spherical tiling
The truncated cube can also be represented as a spherical tiling, and projected onto the plane via a stereographic projection. This projection is conformal, preserving angles but not areas or lengths. Straight lines on the sphere are projected as circular arcs on the plane.
octagon-centered

Orthographic projection Stereographic projections
Cartesian coordinates
Cartesian coordinates for the vertices of a truncated hexahedron centered at the origin with edge length 2ξ are all the permutations of
(±ξ, ±1, ±1),
where ξ = √2 − 1.
The parameter ξ can be varied between ±1. A value of 1 produces a cube, 0 produces a cuboctahedron, and negative values produces self-intersecting octagrammic faces.
If the self-intersected portions of the octagrams are removed, leaving squares, and truncating the triangles into hexagons, truncated octahedra are produced, and the sequence ends with the central squares being reduced to a point, and creating an octahedron.
Dissection
The truncated cube can be dissected into a central cube, with six square cupolae around each of the cube's faces, and 8 regular tetrahedra in the corners. This dissection can also be seen within the runcic cubic honeycomb, with cube, tetrahedron, and rhombicuboctahedron cells.
This dissection can be used to create a Stewart toroid with all regular faces by removing two square cupolae and the central cube. This excavated cube has 16 triangles, 12 squares, and 4 octagons.[1][2]
Vertex arrangement
It shares the vertex arrangement with three nonconvex uniform polyhedra:
Truncated cube
Nonconvex great rhombicuboctahedron
Great cubicuboctahedron
Great rhombihexahedron
Related polyhedra
The truncated cube is related to other polyhedra and tilings in symmetry.
The truncated cube is one of a family of uniform polyhedra related to the cube and regular octahedron.

Geometric relations
This polyhedron can be formed from a regular dodecahedron by truncating (cutting off) the corners so the pentagon faces become decagons and the corners become triangles.
It is used in the cell-transitive hyperbolic space-filling tessellation, the bitruncated icosahedral honeycomb.
Area and volume
The area A and the volume V of a truncated dodecahedron of edge length a are:
${\begin{aligned}A&=5\left({\sqrt {3}}+6{\sqrt {5+2{\sqrt {5}}}}\right)a^{2}&&\approx 100.990\,76a^{2}\\V&={\tfrac {5}{12}}\left(99+47{\sqrt {5}}\right)a^{3}&&\approx 85.039\,6646a^{3}\end{aligned}}$
Cartesian coordinates
Cartesian coordinates for the vertices of a truncated dodecahedron with edge length 2φ − 2, centered at the origin,[1] are all even permutations of:
(0, ±1/φ, ±(2 + φ))
(±1/φ, ±φ, ±2φ)
(±φ, ±2, ±(φ + 1))
where φ = 1 + √5/2 is the golden ratio.
Orthogonal projections
The truncated dodecahedron has five special orthogonal projections, centered: on a vertex, on two types of edges, and two types of faces. The last two correspond to the A2 and H2 Coxeter planes.

Spherical tilings and Schlegel diagrams
The truncated dodecahedron can also be represented as a spherical tiling, and projected onto the plane via a stereographic projection. This projection is conformal, preserving angles but not areas or lengths. Straight lines on the sphere are projected as circular arcs on the plane.
Schlegel diagrams are similar, with a perspective projection and straight edges.

Symmetry
The dual of the tiling represents the fundamental domains of (*662) orbifold symmetry. From [6,6] (*662) symmetry, there are 15 small index subgroup (12 unique) by mirror removal and alternation operators. Mirrors can be removed if its branch orders are all even, and cuts neighboring branch orders in half. Removing two mirrors leaves a half-order gyration point where the removed mirrors met. In these images fundamental domains are alternately colored black and white, and mirrors exist on the boundaries between colors. The subgroup index-8 group, [1+,6,1+,6,1+] (3333) is the commutator subgroup of [6,6].
Larger subgroup constructed as [6,6*], removing the gyration points of (6*3), index 12 becomes (*333333).
The symmetry can be doubled to 642 symmetry by adding a mirror to bisect the fundamental domain.

Dual tiling
The dual tiling is called an order-6-8 kisrhombille tiling, made as a complete bisection of the order-6 octagonal tiling, here with triangles are shown with alternating colors. This tiling represents the fundamental triangular domains of [8,6] (*862) symmetry.
Symmetry
There are six reflective subgroup kaleidoscopic constructed from [8,6] by removing one or two of three mirrors. Mirrors can be removed if its branch orders are all even, and cuts neighboring branch orders in half. Removing two mirrors leaves a half-order gyration point where the removed mirrors met. In these images fundamental domains are alternately colored black and white, and mirrors exist on the boundaries between colors. The subgroup index-8 group, [1+,8,1+,6,1+] (4343) is the commutator subgroup of [8,6].
A radical subgroup is constructed as [8,6*], index 12, as [8,6+], (6*4) with gyration points removed, becomes (*444444), and another [8*,6], index 16 as [8+,6], (8*3) with gyration points removed as (*33333333).

PropertiesVertex-transitive
As the name implies this tiling is constructed by a truncation operation applies to a hexagonal tiling, leaving dodecagons in place of the original hexagons, and new triangles at the original vertex locations. It is given an extended Schläfli symbol of t{6,3}.
Conway calls it a truncated hextille, constructed as a truncation operation applied to a hexagonal tiling (hextille).
There are 3 regular and 8 semiregular tilings in the plane.
Uniform colorings
There is only one uniform coloring of a truncated hexagonal tiling. (Naming the colors by indices around a vertex: 122.)
Topologically identical tilings
The dodecagonal faces can be distorted into different geometries, such as:
Related polyhedra and tilings
Wythoff constructions from hexagonal and triangular tilings
Like the uniform polyhedra there are eight uniform tilings that can be based from the regular hexagonal tiling (or the dual triangular tiling).
Drawing the tiles colored as red on the original faces, yellow at the original vertices, and blue along the original edges, there are 8 forms, 7 which are topologically distinct. (The truncated triangular tiling is topologically identical to the hexagonal tiling.)

Circle packing
The truncated hexagonal tiling can be used as a circle packing, placing equal diameter circles at the center of every point.[3] Every circle is in contact with 3 other circles in the packing (kissing number). This is the lowest density packing that can be created from a uniform tiling.

Propertiesface-transitive
The triakis triangular tiling is a tiling of the Euclidean plane. It is an equilateral triangular tiling with each triangle divided into three obtuse triangles (angles 30-30-120) from the center point. It is labeled by face configuration V3.12.12 because each isosceles triangle face has two types of vertices: one with 3 triangles, and two with 12 triangles.
Conway calls it a kisdeltille,[4] constructed as a kis operation applied to a triangular tiling (deltille).
In Japan the pattern is called asanoha for hemp leaf, although the name also applies to other triakis shapes like the triakis icosahedron and triakis octahedron.[5]
It is the dual tessellation of the truncated hexagonal tiling which has one triangle and two dodecagons at each vertex.[6]
It is one of eight edge tessellations, tessellations generated by reflections across each edge of a prototile.[7]
Related duals to uniform tilings
It is one of 7 dual uniform tilings in hexagonal symmetry, including the regular duals.

Truncated icosahedron
In geometry, the truncated icosahedron is an Archimedean solid, one of 13 convex isogonal nonprismatic solids whose 32 faces are two or more types of regular polygons. It is the only one of these shapes that does not contain triangles or squares. In general usage, the degree of truncation is assumed to be uniform unless specified.

It has 12 regular pentagonal faces, 20 regular hexagonal faces, 60 vertices and 90 edges.
It is the Goldberg polyhedron GPV(1,1) or {5+,3}1,1, containing pentagonal and hexagonal faces.
This geometry is associated with footballs (soccer balls) typically patterned with white hexagons and black pentagons. Geodesic domes such as those whose architecture Buckminster Fuller pioneered are often based on this structure. It also corresponds to the geometry of the fullerene C60 ("buckyball") molecule.
It is used in the cell-transitive hyperbolic space-filling tessellation, the bitruncated order-5 dodecahedral honeycomb.
Construction
This polyhedron can be constructed from an icosahedron by truncating, or cutting off, each of the 12 vertices at the one-third mark of each edge, creating 12 pentagonal faces and transforming the original 20 triangle faces into regular hexagons.[1][2]
Characteristics
In geometry and graph theory, there are some standard polyhedron characteristics.
Cartesian coordinates
Cartesian coordinates for the vertices of a truncated icosahedron centered at the origin are all even permutations of:
(0, ±1, ±3φ)
(±1, ±(2 + φ), ±2φ)
(±φ, ±2, ±(2φ + 1))
where φ = 1 + √5/2 is the golden mean. The circumradius is √9φ + 10 ≈ 4.956 and the edges have length 2.[3]
Orthogonal projections
The truncated icosahedron has five special orthogonal projections, centered, on a vertex, on two types of edges, and two types of faces: hexagonal and pentagonal. The last two correspond to the A2 and H2 Coxeter planes.

Spherical tiling
The truncated icosahedron can also be represented as a spherical tiling, and projected onto the plane via a stereographic projection. This projection is conformal, preserving angles but not areas or lengths. Straight lines on the sphere are projected as circular arcs on the plane.

Orthographic projection Stereographic projections
Dimensions
If the edge length of a truncated icosahedron is a, the radius of a circumscribed sphere (one that touches the truncated icosahedron at all vertices) is:
$r_{\mathrm {u} }={\frac {a}{2}}{\sqrt {1+9\varphi ^{2}}}={\frac {a}{4}}{\sqrt {58+18{\sqrt {5}}}}\approx 2.478\,018\,66a$
where φ is the golden ratio.
This result is easy to get by using one of the three orthogonal golden rectangles drawn into the original icosahedron (before cut off) as the starting point for our considerations. The angle between the segments joining the center and the vertices connected by shared edge (calculated on the basis of this construction) is approximately 23.281446°.
Area and volume
The area A and the volume V of the truncated icosahedron of edge length a are:
${\begin{aligned}A&=\left(20\cdot {\frac {3}{2}}{\sqrt {3}}+12\cdot {\frac {5}{4}}{\sqrt {1+{\frac {2}{\sqrt {5}}}}}\right)a^{2}&&\approx 72.607\,253a^{2}\\V&={\frac {125+43{\sqrt {5}}}{4}}a^{3}&&\approx 55.287\,7308a^{3}.\end{aligned}}$
With unit edges, the surface area is (rounded) 21 for the pentagons and 52 for the hexagons, together 73 (see areas of regular polygons).
The truncated icosahedron easily demonstrates the Euler characteristic:
32 + 60 − 90 = 2.
Applications
The balls used in association football and team handball are perhaps the best-known example of a spherical polyhedron analog to the truncated icosahedron, found in everyday life.[4] The ball comprises the same pattern of regular pentagons and regular hexagons, but it is more spherical due to the pressure of the air inside and the elasticity of the ball. This ball type was introduced to the World Cup in 1970 (starting in 2006, this iconic design has been superseded by alternative patterns).
British traffic signs indicating football grounds use a uniformly-colored hexagonal tiling section to represent a football, rather than a truncated icosahedron. This angered mathematician and comedian Matt Parker, who started a petition to the UK government to have these signs changed to be geometrically accurate. The petition was ultimately declined.
Geodesic domes are typically based on triangular facetings of this geometry with example structures found across the world, popularized by Buckminster Fuller.[5]
A variation of the icosahedron was used as the basis of the honeycomb wheels (made from a polycast material) used by the Pontiac Motor Division between 1971 and 1976 on its Trans Am and Grand Prix.
This shape was also the configuration of the lenses used for focusing the explosive shock waves of the detonators in both the gadget and Fat Man atomic bombs.[6]
The truncated icosahedron can also be described as a model of the Buckminsterfullerene (fullerene) (C60), or "buckyball", molecule – an allotrope of elemental carbon, discovered in 1985. The diameter of the football and the fullerene molecule are 22 cm and about 0.71 nm, respectively, hence the size ratio is ≈31,000,000:1.
In popular craft culture, large sparkleballs can be made using a icosahedron pattern and plastic, styrofoam or paper cups.

History
The truncated icosahedron was known to Archimedes, who classified the 13 Archimedean solids in a lost work. All we know of his work on these shapes comes from Pappus of Alexandria, who merely lists the numbers of faces for each: 12 pentagons and 20 hexagons, in the case of the truncated icosahedron. The first known image and complete description of a truncated icosahedron is from a rediscovery by Piero della Francesca, in his 15th-century book De quinque corporibus regularibus,[10] which included five of the Archimedean solids (the five truncations of the regular polyhedra). The same shape was depicted by Leonardo da Vinci, in his illustrations for Luca Pacioli's plagiarism of della Francesca's book in 1509. Although Albrecht Dürer omitted this shape from the other Archimedean solids listed in his 1525 book on polyhedra, Underweysung der Messung, a description of it was found in his posthumous papers, published in 1538. Johannes Kepler later rediscovered the complete list of the 13 Archimedean solids, including the truncated icosahedron, and included them in his 1609 book, Harmonices Mundi.[11]

Icosahedral honeycomb
In geometry, the icosahedral honeycomb is one of four compact, regular, space-filling tessellations (or honeycombs) in hyperbolic 3-space. With Schläfli symbol {3,5,3}, there are three icosahedra around each edge, and 12 icosahedra around each vertex, in a regular dodecahedral vertex figure.

PropertiesRegular
A geometric honeycomb is a space-filling of polyhedral or higher-dimensional cells, so that there are no gaps. It is an example of the more general mathematical tiling or tessellation in any number of dimensions.
Honeycombs are usually constructed in ordinary Euclidean ("flat") space, like the convex uniform honeycombs. They may also be constructed in non-Euclidean spaces, such as hyperbolic uniform honeycombs. Any finite uniform polytope can be projected to its circumsphere to form a uniform honeycomb in spherical space.
Description
The dihedral angle of a regular icosahedron is around 138.2°, so it is impossible to fit three icosahedra around an edge in Euclidean 3-space. However, in hyperbolic space, properly scaled icosahedra can have dihedral angles of exactly 120 degrees, so three of those can fit around an edge.

Symmetry constructions
There are five different symmetry constructions of this tessellation. Each symmetry can be represented by different arrangements of colored truncated 24-cell facets. In all cases, four truncated 24-cells, and one tesseract meet at each vertex, but the vertex figures have different symmetry generators.

Dualapeirokis apeirogonal tiling
PropertiesVertex-transitive
Uniform color
In (*∞44) symmetry this tiling has 3 colors. Bisecting the isosceles triangle domains can double the symmetry to *∞42 symmetry.
Symmetry
The dual of the tiling represents the fundamental domains of (*∞44) orbifold symmetry. From [(∞,4,4)] (*∞44) symmetry, there are 15 small index subgroup (11 unique) by mirror removal and alternation operators. Mirrors can be removed if its branch orders are all even, and cuts neighboring branch orders in half. Removing two mirrors leaves a half-order gyration point where the removed mirrors met. In these images fundamental domains are alternately colored black and white, and mirrors exist on the boundaries between colors. The symmetry can be doubled to *∞42 by adding a bisecting mirror across the fundamental domains. The subgroup index-8 group, [(1+,∞,1+,4,1+,4)] (∞22∞22) is the commutator subgroup of [(∞,4,4)].

Truncated normal distribution
In probability and statistics, the truncated normal distribution is the probability distribution derived from that of a normally distributed random variable by bounding the random variable from either below or above (or both). The truncated normal distribution has wide applications in statistics and econometrics.
Probability density function
Probability density function for the truncated normal distribution for different sets of parameters. In all cases, a = −10 and b = 10. For the black: μ = −8, σ = 2; blue: μ = 0, σ = 2; red: μ = 9, σ = 10; orange: μ = 0, σ = 10.
Cumulative distribution function
Cumulative distribution function for the truncated normal distribution for different sets of parameters. In all cases, a = −10 and b = 10. For the black: μ = −8, σ = 2; blue: μ = 0, σ = 2; red: μ = 9, σ = 10; orange: μ = 0, σ = 10.
Notation $\xi ={\frac {x-\mu }{\sigma }},\ \alpha ={\frac {a-\mu }{\sigma }},\ \beta ={\frac {b-\mu }{\sigma }}$
$Z=\Phi (\beta )-\Phi (\alpha )$
Parameters $\mu \in \mathbb {R} $
$\sigma ^{2}\geq 0$ (but see definition)
$a\in \mathbb {R} $ — minimum value of $x$
$b\in \mathbb {R} $ — maximum value of $x$ ($b>a$)
Support $x\in [a,b]$
PDF $f(x;\mu ,\sigma ,a,b)={\frac {\varphi (\xi )}{\sigma Z}}\,$[1]
CDF $F(x;\mu ,\sigma ,a,b)={\frac {\Phi (\xi )-\Phi (\alpha )}{Z}}$
Mean $\mu +{\frac {\varphi (\alpha )-\varphi (\beta )}{Z}}\sigma $
Median $\mu +\Phi ^{-1}\left({\frac {\Phi (\alpha )+\Phi (\beta )}{2}}\right)\sigma $
Mode $\left\{{\begin{array}{ll}a,&\mathrm {if} \ \mu <a\\\mu ,&\mathrm {if} \ a\leq \mu \leq b\\b,&\mathrm {if} \ \mu >b\end{array}}\right.$
Variance $\sigma ^{2}\left[1-{\frac {\beta \varphi (\beta )-\alpha \varphi (\alpha )}{Z}}-\left({\frac {\varphi (\alpha )-\varphi (\beta )}{Z}}\right)^{2}\right]$
Entropy $\ln({\sqrt {2\pi e}}\sigma Z)+{\frac {\alpha \varphi (\alpha )-\beta \varphi (\beta )}{2Z}}$
MGF $e^{\mu t+\sigma ^{2}t^{2}/2}\left[{\frac {\Phi (\beta -\sigma t)-\Phi (\alpha -\sigma t)}{\Phi (\beta )-\Phi (\alpha )}}\right]$
Definitions
Suppose $X$ has a normal distribution with mean $\mu $ and variance $\sigma ^{2}$ and lies within the interval $(a,b),{\text{with}}\;-\infty \leq a<b\leq \infty $. Then $X$ conditional on $a<X<b$ has a truncated normal distribution.
Its probability density function, $f$, for $a\leq x\leq b$, is given by
$f(x;\mu ,\sigma ,a,b)={\frac {1}{\sigma }}\,{\frac {\varphi ({\frac {x-\mu }{\sigma }})}{\Phi ({\frac {b-\mu }{\sigma }})-\Phi ({\frac {a-\mu }{\sigma }})}}$
and by $f=0$ otherwise.
Here,
$\varphi (\xi )={\frac {1}{\sqrt {2\pi }}}\exp \left(-{\frac {1}{2}}\xi ^{2}\right)$
is the probability density function of the standard normal distribution and $\Phi (\cdot )$ is its cumulative distribution function
$\Phi (x)={\frac {1}{2}}\left(1+\operatorname {erf} (x/{\sqrt {2}})\right).$
By definition, if $b=\infty $, then $\Phi \left({\tfrac {b-\mu }{\sigma }}\right)=1$, and similarly, if $a=-\infty $, then $\Phi \left({\tfrac {a-\mu }{\sigma }}\right)=0$.
The above formulae show that when $-\infty <a<b<+\infty $ the scale parameter $\sigma ^{2}$ of the truncated normal distribution is allowed to assume negative values. The parameter $\sigma $ is in this case imaginary, but the function $f$ is nevertheless real, positive, and normalizable. The scale parameter $\sigma ^{2}$ of the untruncated normal distribution must be positive because the distribution would not be normalizable otherwise. The doubly truncated normal distribution, on the other hand, can in principle have a negative scale parameter (which is different from the variance, see summary formulae), because no such integrability problems arise on a bounded domain. In this case the distribution cannot be interpreted as an untruncated normal conditional on $a<X<b$, of course, but can still be interpreted as a maximum-entropy distribution with first and second moments as constraints, and has an additional peculiar feature: it presents two local maxima instead of one, located at $x=a$ and $x=b$.
Properties
The truncated normal is the maximum entropy probability distribution for a fixed mean and variance with the random variate X constrained to be in the interval [a,b].[2] Truncated normals with fixed support form an exponential family. Nielsen[3] reported closed-form formula for calculating the Kullback-Leibler divergence and the Bhattacharyya distance between two truncated normal distributions with the support of the first distribution nested into the support of the second distribution.
Moments
If the random variable has been truncated only from below, some probability mass has been shifted to higher values, giving a first-order stochastically dominating distribution and hence increasing the mean to a value higher than the mean $\mu $ of the original normal distribution. Likewise, if the random variable has been truncated only from above, the truncated distribution has a mean less than $\mu .$
Regardless of whether the random variable is bounded above, below, or both, the truncation is a mean-preserving contraction combined with a mean-changing rigid shift, and hence the variance of the truncated distribution is less than the variance $\sigma ^{2}$ of the original normal distribution.
Two sided truncation[4]
Let $\alpha =(a-\mu )/\sigma $ and $\beta =(b-\mu )/\sigma $. Then:
$\operatorname {E} (X\mid a<X<b)=\mu -\sigma {\frac {\varphi (\beta )-\varphi (\alpha )}{\Phi (\beta )-\Phi (\alpha )}}$
and
$\operatorname {Var} (X\mid a<X<b)=\sigma ^{2}\left[1-{\frac {\beta \varphi (\beta )-\alpha \varphi (\alpha )}{\Phi (\beta )-\Phi (\alpha )}}-\left({\frac {\varphi (\beta )-\varphi (\alpha )}{\Phi (\beta )-\Phi (\alpha )}}\right)^{2}\right]$
Care must be taken in the numerical evaluation of these formulas, which can result in catastrophic cancellation when the interval $[a,b]$ does not include $\mu $. There are better ways to rewrite them that avoid this issue.[5]
One sided truncation (of lower tail)[6]
In this case $\;b=\infty ,\;\varphi (\beta )=0,\;\Phi (\beta )=1,$ then
$\operatorname {E} (X\mid X>a)=\mu +\sigma \varphi (\alpha )/Z,\!$
and
$\operatorname {Var} (X\mid X>a)=\sigma ^{2}[1+\alpha \varphi (\alpha )/Z-(\varphi (\alpha )/Z)^{2}],$
where $Z=1-\Phi (\alpha ).$
One sided truncation (of upper tail)
In this case $\;a=\alpha =-\infty ,\;\varphi (\alpha )=0,\;\Phi (\alpha )=0,$ then
$\operatorname {E} (X\mid X<b)=\mu -\sigma {\frac {\varphi (\beta )}{\Phi (\beta )}},$
$\operatorname {Var} (X\mid X<b)=\sigma ^{2}\left[1-\beta {\frac {\varphi (\beta )}{\Phi (\beta )}}-\left({\frac {\varphi (\beta )}{\Phi (\beta )}}\right)^{2}\right].$
Barr & Sherrill (1999) give a simpler expression for the variance of one sided truncations. Their formula is in terms of the chi-square CDF, which is implemented in standard software libraries. Bebu & Mathew (2009) provide formulas for (generalized) confidence intervals around the truncated moments.
A recursive formula
As for the non-truncated case, there is a recursive formula for the truncated moments.[7]
Multivariate
Computing the moments of a multivariate truncated normal is harder.
Generating values from the truncated normal distribution
A random variate $x$ defined as $x=\Phi ^{-1}(\Phi (\alpha )+U\cdot (\Phi (\beta )-\Phi (\alpha )))\sigma +\mu $ with $\Phi $ the cumulative distribution function and $\Phi ^{-1}$ its inverse, $U$ a uniform random number on $(0,1)$, follows the distribution truncated to the range $(a,b)$. This is simply the inverse transform method for simulating random variables. Although one of the simplest, this method can either fail when sampling in the tail of the normal distribution,[8] or be much too slow.[9] Thus, in practice, one has to find alternative methods of simulation.
One such truncated normal generator (implemented in Matlab and in R (programming language) as trandn.R ) is based on an acceptance rejection idea due to Marsaglia.[10] Despite the slightly suboptimal acceptance rate of Marsaglia (1964) in comparison with Robert (1995), Marsaglia's method is typically faster,[9] because it does not require the costly numerical evaluation of the exponential function.
For more on simulating a draw from the truncated normal distribution, see Robert (1995), Lynch (2007), Devroye (1986). The MSM package in R has a function, rtnorm, that calculates draws from a truncated normal. The truncnorm package in R also has functions to draw from a truncated normal.
Chopin (2011) proposed (arXiv) an algorithm inspired from the Ziggurat algorithm of Marsaglia and Tsang (1984, 2000), which is usually considered as the fastest Gaussian sampler, and is also very close to Ahrens's algorithm (1995). Implementations can be found in C, C++, Matlab and Python.
Sampling from the multivariate truncated normal distribution is considerably more difficult.[11] Exact or perfect simulation is only feasible in the case of truncation of the normal distribution to a polytope region.[11][12] In more general cases, Damien & Walker (2001) introduce a general methodology for sampling truncated densities within a Gibbs sampling framework. Their algorithm introduces one latent variable and, within a Gibbs sampling framework, it is more computationally efficient than the algorithm of Robert (1995).

Truncated normal hurdle model
In econometrics, the truncated normal hurdle model is a variant of the Tobit model and was first proposed by Cragg in 1971.[1]
In a standard Tobit model, represented as $y=(x\beta +u)1[x\beta +u>0]$, where $u|x\sim N(0,\sigma ^{2})$This model construction implicitly imposes two first order assumptions:[2]
1. Since: $\partial P[y>0]/\partial x_{j}=\varphi (x\beta /\sigma )\beta _{j}/\sigma $ and $\partial \operatorname {E} [y\mid x,y>0]/\partial x_{j}=\beta _{j}\{1-\theta (x\beta /\sigma \}$, the partial effect of $x_{j}$ on the probability $P[y>0]$ and the conditional expectation: $\operatorname {E} [y\mid x,y>0]$ has the same sign:[3]
2. The relative effects of $x_{h}$ and $x_{j}$ on $P[y>0]$ and $\operatorname {E} [y\mid x,y>0]$ are identical, i.e.:
${\frac {\partial P[y>0]/\partial x_{h}}{\partial P[y>0]/\partial x_{j}}}={\frac {\partial \operatorname {E} [y\mid x,y>0]/\partial x_{h}}{\partial \operatorname {E} [y\mid x,y>0]/\partial x_{j}}}={\frac {\beta _{h}}{\beta _{j}}}|$
However, these two implicit assumptions are too strong and inconsistent with many contexts in economics. For instance, when we need to decide whether to invest and build a factory, the construction cost might be more influential than the product price; but once we have already built the factory, the product price is definitely more influential to the revenue. Hence, the implicit assumption (2) doesn't match this context.[4] The essence of this issue is that the standard Tobit implicitly models a very strong link between the participation decision $(y=0$ or $y>0)$ and the amount decision (the magnitude of $y$ when $y>0$). If a corner solution model is represented in a general form: $y=s\centerdot w,$ , where $s$ is the participate decision and $w$ is the amount decision, standard Tobit model assumes:
$s=1[x\beta +u>0];$
$w=x\beta +u.$
To make the model compatible with more contexts, a natural improvement is to assume:
$s=1[x\gamma +u>0],{\text{ where }}u\sim N(0,1);$
$w=x\beta +e,$ where the error term ($e$) is distributed as a truncated normal distribution with a density as $\varphi (\cdot )/\Phi \left({\frac {x\beta }{\sigma }}\right)/\sigma ;$ ;}
$s$ and $w$ are independent conditional on $x$.
This is called Truncated Normal Hurdle Model, which is proposed in Cragg (1971).[1] By adding one more parameter and detach the amount decision with the participation decision, the model can fit more contexts. Under this model setup, the density of the $y$ given $x$ can be written as:
$f(y\mid x)=[1-\Phi (\chi \gamma )]^{1[y=0]}\cdot \left[{\frac {\Phi \ (\chi \gamma )}{\Phi (\chi \beta /\sigma )}}\left.\varphi \left({\frac {y-\chi \beta }{\sigma }}\right)\right/\sigma \right]^{1[y>0]}$
From this density representation, it is obvious that it will degenerate to the standard Tobit model when $\gamma =\beta /\sigma .$ This also shows that Truncated Normal Hurdle Model is more general than the standard Tobit model.
The Truncated Normal Hurdle Model is usually estimated through MLE. The log-likelihood function can be written as:
${\begin{aligned}\ell (\beta ,\gamma ,\sigma )={}&\sum _{i=1}^{N}1[y_{i}=0]\log[1-\Phi (x_{i}\gamma )]+1[y_{i}>0]\log[\Phi (x_{i}\gamma )]\\[5pt]&{}+1[y_{i}>0]\left[-\log \left[\Phi \left({\frac {x_{i}\beta }{\sigma }}\right)\right]+\log \left(\varphi \left({\frac {y_{i}-x_{i}\beta }{\sigma }}\right)\right)-\log(\sigma )\right]\end{aligned}}$
From the log-likelihood function, $\gamma $ can be estimated by a probit model and $(\beta ,\sigma )$ can be estimated by a truncated normal regression model.[5] Based on the estimates, consistent estimates for the Average Partial Effect can be estimated correspondingly.

Truncated order-4 octagonal tiling
In geometry, the truncated order-4 octagonal tiling is a uniform tiling of the hyperbolic plane. It has Schläfli symbol of t0,1{8,4}. A secondary construction t0,1,2{8,8} is called a truncated octaoctagonal tiling with two colors of hexakaidecagons.

Dual tiling
The dual tiling, Order-8 tetrakis square tiling has face configuration V4.16.16, and represents the fundamental domains of the [8,8] symmetry group.
Symmetry
The dual of the tiling represents the fundamental domains of (*882) orbifold symmetry. From [8,8] symmetry, there are 15 small index subgroup by mirror removal and alternation operators. Mirrors can be removed if its branch orders are all even, and cuts neighboring branch orders in half. Removing two mirrors leaves a half-order gyration point where the removed mirrors met. In these images unique mirrors are colored red, green, and blue, and alternatively colored triangles show the location of gyration points. The [8+,8+], (44×) subgroup has narrow lines representing glide reflections. The subgroup index-8 group, [1+,8,1+,8,1+] (4444) is the commutator subgroup of [8,8].
One larger subgroup is constructed as [8,8*], removing the gyration points of (8*4), index 16 becomes (*44444444), and its direct subgroup [8,8*]+, index 32, (44444444).
The [8,8] symmetry can be doubled by a mirror bisecting the fundamental domain, and creating *884 symmetry.

From a Wythoff construction there are eight hyperbolic uniform tilings that can be based from the regular heptagonal tiling.
Drawing the tiles colored as red on the original faces, yellow at the original vertices, and blue along the original edges, there are eight forms.

Uniform colorings
A half symmetry coloring is tr{∞,∞}, has two types of apeirogons, shown red and yellow here. If the apeirogonal curvature is too large, it doesn't converge to a single ideal point, like the right image, red apeirogons below. Coxeter diagram are shown with dotted lines for these divergent, ultraparallel mirrors.

(Square centered)
Symmetry
From [∞,∞] symmetry, there are 15 small index subgroup by mirror removal and alternation. Mirrors can be removed if its branch orders are all even, and cuts neighboring branch orders in half. Removing two mirrors leaves a half-order gyration point where the removed mirrors met. In these images fundamental domains are alternately colored black and white, and mirrors exist on the boundaries between colors. The symmetry can be doubled as ∞42 symmetry by adding a mirror bisecting the fundamental domain. The subgroup index-8 group, [1+,∞,1+,∞,1+] (∞∞∞∞) is the commutator subgroup of [∞,∞].

The dual to this tiling represent the fundamental domains of [(6,6,3)] (*663) symmetry. There are 3 small index subgroup symmetries constructed from [(6,6,3)] by mirror removal and alternation. In these images fundamental domains are alternately colored black and white, and mirrors exist on the boundaries between colors.
The symmetry can be doubled as 662 symmetry by adding a mirror bisecting the fundamental domain.

With mirrors
An alternate construction exists from the [(5,5,3)] family, as the omnitruncation t012(5,5,3). It is shown with two (colors) of decagons.
Symmetry
The dual of this tiling represents the fundamental domains of the *553 symmetry. There are no mirror removal subgroups of [(5,5,3)], but this symmetry group can be doubled to 652 symmetry by adding a bisecting mirror to the fundamental domains.

The half symmetry [1+,6,4] = [(4,4,3)] can be shown with alternating two colors of octagons, with as Coxeter diagram .
Symmetry
The dual tiling represents the fundamental domains of the *443 orbifold symmetry. There are two reflective subgroup kaleidoscopic constructed from [(4,4,3)] by removing one or two of three mirrors. In these images fundamental domains are alternately colored black and cyan, and mirrors exist on the boundaries between colors.
A larger subgroup is constructed [(4,4,3*)], index 6, as (3*22) with gyration points removed, becomes (*222222).
The symmetry can be doubled as 642 symmetry by adding a mirror bisecting the fundamental domain.

Related polyhedra and tilings
From a Wythoff construction there are fourteen hyperbolic uniform tilings that can be based from the regular order-6 octagonal tiling.
Drawing the tiles colored as red on the original faces, yellow at the original vertices, and blue along the original edges, there are 7 forms with full [8,6] symmetry, and 7 with subsymmetry.

Symmetry
The dual of the tiling represents the fundamental domains of (*664) orbifold symmetry. From [(6,6,4)] (*664) symmetry, there are 15 small index subgroup (11 unique) by mirror removal and alternation operators. Mirrors can be removed if its branch orders are all even, and cuts neighboring branch orders in half. Removing two mirrors leaves a half-order gyration point where the removed mirrors met. In these images fundamental domains are alternately colored black and white, and mirrors exist on the boundaries between colors. The symmetry can be doubled to 862 symmetry by adding a bisecting mirror across the fundamental domains. The subgroup index-8 group, [(1+,6,1+,6,1+,4)] (332332) is the commutator subgroup of [(6,6,4)].
A large subgroup is constructed [(6,6,4*)], index 8, as (4*33) with gyration points removed, becomes (*38), and another large subgroup is constructed [(6,6*,4)], index 12, as (6*32) with gyration points removed, becomes (*(32)6).

Octagonal tiling
In geometry, the octagonal tiling is a regular tiling of the hyperbolic plane. It is represented by Schläfli symbol of {8,3}, having three regular octagons around each vertex. It also has a construction as a truncated order-8 square tiling, t{4,8}.
For other uses, see truncated square tiling.

Regular maps
The regular map {8,3}2,0 can be seen as a 6-coloring of the {8,3} hyperbolic tiling. Within the regular map, octagons of the same color are considered the same face shown in multiple locations. The 2,0 subscripts show the same color will repeat by moving 2 steps in a straight direction following opposite edges. This regular map also has a representation as a double covering of a cube, represented by Schläfli symbol {8/2,3}, with 6 octagonal faces, double wrapped {8/2}, with 24 edges, and 16 vertices. It was described by Branko Grünbaum in his 2003 paper Are Your Polyhedra the Same as My Polyhedra?[1]

Truncated pentahexagonal tiling
In geometry, the truncated tetrahexagonal tiling is a semiregular tiling of the hyperbolic plane. There are one square, one decagon, and one dodecagon on each vertex. It has Schläfli symbol of t0,1,2{6,5}. Its name is somewhat misleading: literal geometric truncation of pentahexagonal tiling produces rectangles instead of squares.

Dual tiling
The dual tiling is called an order-5-6 kisrhombille tiling, made as a complete bisection of the order-5 hexagonal tiling, here with triangles shown in alternating colors. This tiling represents the fundamental triangular domains of [6,5] (*652) symmetry.
Symmetry
There are four small index subgroup from [6,5] by mirror removal and alternation. In these images fundamental domains are alternately colored black and white, and mirrors exist on the boundaries between colors.

Orthogonal projections in B5 Coxeter plane
There are four unique truncations of the 5-cube. Vertices of the truncated 5-cube are located as pairs on the edge of the 5-cube. Vertices of the bitruncated 5-cube are located on the square faces of the 5-cube. The third and fourth truncations are more easily constructed as second and first truncations of the 5-orthoplex.

The truncated 5-cube may be constructed by truncating the vertices of the 5-cube at $1/({\sqrt {2}}+2)$ of the edge length. A regular 5-cell is formed at each truncated vertex.
The Cartesian coordinates of the vertices of a truncated 5-cube having edge length 2 are all permutations of:
$\left(\pm 1,\ \pm (1+{\sqrt {2}}),\ \pm (1+{\sqrt {2}}),\ \pm (1+{\sqrt {2}}),\ \pm (1+{\sqrt {2}})\right)$

Truncation (geometry)
In geometry, a truncation is an operation in any dimension that cuts polytope vertices, creating a new facet in place of each vertex. The term originates from Kepler's names for the Archimedean solids.
Truncated square is a regular octagon:
t{4} = {8}
=
Truncated cube
t{4,3} or
Truncated cubic honeycomb
t{4,3,4} or
Uniform truncation
In general any polyhedron (or polytope) can also be truncated with a degree of freedom as to how deep the cut is, as shown in Conway polyhedron notation truncation operation.
A special kind of truncation, usually implied, is a uniform truncation, a truncation operator applied to a regular polyhedron (or regular polytope) which creates a resulting uniform polyhedron (uniform polytope) with equal edge lengths. There are no degrees of freedom, and it represents a fixed geometric, just like the regular polyhedra.
In general all single ringed uniform polytopes have a uniform truncation. For example, the icosidodecahedron, represented as Schläfli symbols r{5,3} or ${\begin{Bmatrix}5\\3\end{Bmatrix}}$, and Coxeter-Dynkin diagram or has a uniform truncation, the truncated icosidodecahedron, represented as tr{5,3} or $t{\begin{Bmatrix}5\\3\end{Bmatrix}}$, . In the Coxeter-Dynkin diagram, the effect of a truncation is to ring all the nodes adjacent to the ringed node.
A uniform truncation performed on the regular triangular tiling {3,6} results in the regular hexagonal tiling {6,3}.
Truncation of polygons
A truncated n-sided polygon will have 2n sides (edges). A regular polygon uniformly truncated will become another regular polygon: t{n} is {2n}. A complete truncation (or rectification), r{3}, is another regular polygon in its dual position.
A regular polygon can also be represented by its Coxeter-Dynkin diagram, , and its uniform truncation , and its complete truncation . The graph represents Coxeter group I2(n), with each node representing a mirror, and the edge representing the angle π/n between the mirrors, and a circle is given around one or both mirrors to show which ones are active.
Parametric truncations of a triangle
{3}
t{3} = {6}
r{3} = {3}
Star polygons can also be truncated. A truncated pentagram {5/2} will look like a pentagon, but is actually a double-covered (degenerate) decagon ({10/2}) with two sets of overlapping vertices and edges. A truncated great heptagram {7/3} gives a tetradecagram {14/3}.
Uniform truncation in regular polyhedra and tilings and higher
When "truncation" applies to platonic solids or regular tilings, usually "uniform truncation" is implied, which means truncating until the original faces become regular polygons with twice as many sides as the original form.
This sequence shows an example of the truncation of a cube, using four steps of a continuous truncating process between a full cube and a rectified cube. The final polyhedron is a cuboctahedron. The middle image is the uniform truncated cube; it is represented by a Schläfli symbol t{p,q,...}.
A bitruncation is a deeper truncation, removing all the original edges, but leaving an interior part of the original faces. Example: a truncated octahedron is a bitruncated cube: t{3,4} = 2t{4,3}.
A complete bitruncation, called a birectification, reduces original faces to points. For polyhedra, this becomes the dual polyhedron. Example: an octahedron is a birectification of a cube: {3,4} = 2r{4,3}.
Another type of truncation, cantellation, cuts edges and vertices, removing the original edges, replacing them with rectangles, removing the original vertices, and replacing them with the faces of the dual of the original regular polyhedra or tiling.
Higher dimensional polytopes have higher truncations. Runcination cuts faces, edges, and vertices. In 5 dimensions, sterication cuts cells, faces, and edges.
Edge-truncation
Truncating the edges of a cube, creating a chamfered cube
Edge-truncation is a beveling, or chamfer for polyhedra, similar to cantellation, but retaining the original vertices, and replacing edges by hexagons. In 4-polytopes, edge-truncation replaces edges with elongated bipyramid cells.
Alternation or partial truncation
A uniform alternation of a truncated cuboctahedron gives a nonuniform snub cube.
Alternation or partial truncation removes only some of the original vertices.
In partial truncation, or alternation, half of the vertices and connecting edges are completely removed. The operation applies only to polytopes with even-sided faces. Faces are reduced to half as many sides, and square faces degenerate into edges. For example, the tetrahedron is an alternated cube, h{4,3}.
Diminishment is a more general term used in reference to Johnson solids for the removal of one or more vertices, edges, or faces of a polytope, without disturbing the other vertices. For example, the tridiminished icosahedron starts with a regular icosahedron with 3 vertices removed.
Other partial truncations are symmetry-based; for example, the tetrahedrally diminished dodecahedron.
Generalized truncations
The linear truncation process can be generalized by allowing parametric truncations that are negative, or that go beyond the midpoint of the edges, causing self-intersecting star polyhedra, and can parametrically relate to some of the regular star polygons and uniform star polyhedra.
• Shallow truncation - Edges are reduced in length, faces are truncated to have twice as many sides, while new facets are formed, centered at the old vertices.
• Uniform truncation are a special case of this with equal edge lengths. The truncated cube, t{4,3}, with square faces becoming octagons, with new triangular faces are the vertices.
• Antitruncation A reverse shallow truncation, truncated outwards off the original edges, rather than inward. This results in a polytope which looks like the original, but has parts of the dual dangling off its corners, instead of the dual cutting into its own corners.
• Complete truncation or rectification - The limit of a shallow truncation, where edges are reduced to points. The cuboctahedron, r{4,3}, is an example.
• Hypertruncation A form of truncation that goes past the rectification, inverting the original edges, and causing self-intersections to appear.
• Quasitruncation A form of truncation that goes even farther than hypertruncation where the inverted edge becomes longer than the original edge. It can be generated from the original polytope by treating all the faces as retrograde, i.e. going backwards round the vertex. For example, quasitruncating the square gives a regular octagram (t{4,3}={8/3}), and quasitruncating the cube gives the uniform stellated truncated hexahedron, t{4/3,3}.
Truncations on a square
Types of truncation on a square, {4}, showing red original edges, and new truncated edges in cyan. A uniform truncated square is a regular octagon, t{4}={8}. A complete truncated square becomes a new square, with a diagonal orientation. Vertices are sequenced around counterclockwise, 1-4, with truncated pairs of vertices as a and b.

Truncated power function
In mathematics, the truncated power function[1] with exponent $n$ is defined as
$x_{+}^{n}={\begin{cases}x^{n}&:\ x>0\\0&:\ x\leq 0.\end{cases}}$
In particular,
$x_{+}={\begin{cases}x&:\ x>0\\0&:\ x\leq 0.\end{cases}}$
and interpret the exponent as conventional power.
Relations
• Truncated power functions can be used for construction of B-splines.
• $x\mapsto x_{+}^{0}$ is the Heaviside function.
• $\chi _{[a,b)}(x)=(b-x)_{+}^{0}-(a-x)_{+}^{0}$ where $\chi $ is the indicator function.
• Truncated power functions are refinable.

Frustum
In geometry, a frustum (Latin for 'morsel');[lower-alpha 1] (PL: frusta or frustums) is the portion of a solid (normally a pyramid or a cone) that lies between two parallel planes cutting this solid. In the case of a pyramid, the base faces are polygonal and the side faces are trapezoidal. A right frustum is a right pyramid or a right cone truncated perpendicularly to its axis;[3] otherwise, it is an oblique frustum.

Propertiesconvex

Example: net of right trigonal frustum (n = 3)
If all its edges are forced to become of the same length, then a frustum becomes a prism (possibly oblique or/and with irregular bases).
In computer graphics, the viewing frustum is the three-dimensional region which is visible on the screen. It is formed by a clipped pyramid; in particular, frustum culling is a method of hidden-surface determination.
In the aerospace industry, a frustum is the fairing between two stages of a multistage rocket (such as the Saturn V), which is shaped like a truncated cone.
Elements, special cases, and related concepts
A frustum's axis is that of the original cone or pyramid. A frustum is circular if it has circular bases; it is right if the axis is perpendicular to both bases, and oblique otherwise.
The height of a frustum is the perpendicular distance between the planes of the two bases.
Cones and pyramids can be viewed as degenerate cases of frusta, where one of the cutting planes passes through the apex (so that the corresponding base reduces to a point). The pyramidal frusta are a subclass of prismatoids.
Two frusta with two congruent bases joined at these congruent bases make a bifrustum.
Formulas
Volume
The formula for the volume of a pyramidal square frustum was introduced by the ancient Egyptian mathematics in what is called the Moscow Mathematical Papyrus, written in the 13th dynasty (c. 1850 BC):
$V={\frac {h}{3}}\left(a^{2}+ab+b^{2}\right),$
where a and b are the base and top side lengths, and h is the height.
The Egyptians knew the correct formula for the volume of such a truncated square pyramid, but no proof of this equation is given in the Moscow papyrus.
The volume of a conical or pyramidal frustum is the volume of the solid before slicing its "apex" off, minus the volume of this "apex":
$V={\frac {h_{1}B_{1}-h_{2}B_{2}}{3}},$
where B1 and B2 are the base and top areas, and h1 and h2 are the perpendicular heights from the apex to the base and top planes.
Considering that
${\frac {B_{1}}{h_{1}^{2}}}={\frac {B_{2}}{h_{2}^{2}}}={\frac {\sqrt {B_{1}B_{2}}}{h_{1}h_{2}}}=\alpha ,$
the formula for the volume can be expressed as the third of the product of this proportionality, $\alpha $, and of the difference of the cubes of the heights h1 and h2 only:
$V={\frac {h_{1}\alpha h_{1}^{2}-h_{2}\alpha h_{2}^{2}}{3}}=\alpha {\frac {h_{1}^{3}-h_{2}^{3}}{3}}.$
By using the identity a3 − b3 = (a − b)(a2 + ab + b2), one gets:
$V=(h_{1}-h_{2})\alpha {\frac {h_{1}^{2}+h_{1}h_{2}+h_{2}^{2}}{3}},$
where h1 − h2 = h is the height of the frustum.
Distributing $\alpha $ and substituting from its definition, the Heronian mean of areas B1 and B2 is obtained:
${\frac {B_{1}+{\sqrt {B_{1}B_{2}}}+B_{2}}{3}};$
the alternative formula is therefore:
$V={\frac {h}{3}}\left(B_{1}+{\sqrt {B_{1}B_{2}}}+B_{2}\right).$
Heron of Alexandria is noted for deriving this formula, and with it, encountering the imaginary unit: the square root of negative one.[4]
In particular:
• The volume of a circular cone frustum is:
$V={\frac {\pi h}{3}}\left(r_{1}^{2}+r_{1}r_{2}+r_{2}^{2}\right),$
where r1 and r2 are the base and top radii.
• The volume of a pyramidal frustum whose bases are regular n-gons is:
$V={\frac {nh}{12}}\left(a_{1}^{2}+a_{1}a_{2}+a_{2}^{2}\right)\cot {\frac {\pi }{n}},$
where a1 and a2 are the base and top side lengths.
Surface area
For a right circular conical frustum[5][6]
${\begin{aligned}{\text{Lateral surface area}}&=\pi \left(r_{1}+r_{2}\right)s\\&=\pi \left(r_{1}+r_{2}\right){\sqrt {\left(r_{1}-r_{2}\right)^{2}+h^{2}}}\end{aligned}}$
and
${\begin{aligned}{\text{Total surface area}}&=\pi \left(\left(r_{1}+r_{2}\right)s+r_{1}^{2}+r_{2}^{2}\right)\\&=\pi \left(\left(r_{1}+r_{2}\right){\sqrt {\left(r_{1}-r_{2}\right)^{2}+h^{2}}}+r_{1}^{2}+r_{2}^{2}\right)\end{aligned}}$
where r1 and r2 are the base and top radii respectively, and s is the slant height of the frustum.
The surface area of a right frustum whose bases are similar regular n-sided polygons is
$A={\frac {n}{4}}\left[\left(a_{1}^{2}+a_{2}^{2}\right)\cot {\frac {\pi }{n}}+{\sqrt {\left(a_{1}^{2}-a_{2}^{2}\right)^{2}\sec ^{2}{\frac {\pi }{n}}+4h^{2}\left(a_{1}+a_{2}\right)^{2}}}\right]$
where a1 and a2 are the sides of the two bases.
Examples
• On the back (the reverse) of a United States one-dollar bill, a pyramidal frustum appears on the reverse of the Great Seal of the United States, surmounted by the Eye of Providence.
• Ziggurats, step pyramids, and certain ancient Native American mounds also form the frustum of one or more pyramids, with additional features such as stairs added.
• Chinese pyramids.
• The John Hancock Center in Chicago, Illinois is a frustum whose bases are rectangles.
• The Washington Monument is a narrow square-based pyramidal frustum topped by a small pyramid.
• The viewing frustum in 3D computer graphics is a virtual photographic or video camera's usable field of view modeled as a pyramidal frustum.
• In the English translation of Stanislaw Lem's short-story collection The Cyberiad, the poem Love and tensor algebra claims that "every frustum longs to be a cone".

Notes
1. The term frustum comes from Latin frustum, meaning 'piece' or 'morsel". The English word is often misspelled as frustrum, a different Latin word cognate to the English word "frustrate".[1] The confusion between these two words is very old: a warning about them can be found in the Appendix Probi, and the works of Plautus include a pun on them.[2]

Truncated square tiling
In geometry, the truncated square tiling is a semiregular tiling by regular polygons of the Euclidean plane with one square and two octagons on each vertex. This is the only edge-to-edge tiling by regular convex polygons which contains an octagon. It has Schläfli symbol of t{4,4}.

PropertiesVertex-transitive
Conway calls it a truncated quadrille, constructed as a truncation operation applied to a square tiling (quadrille).
Other names used for this pattern include Mediterranean tiling and octagonal tiling, which is often represented by smaller squares, and nonregular octagons which alternate long and short edges.
There are 3 regular and 8 semiregular tilings in the plane.
Uniform colorings
There are two distinct uniform colorings of a truncated square tiling. (Naming the colors by indices around a vertex (4.8.8): 122, 123.)
2 colors: 122
3 colors: 123
Circle packing
The truncated square tiling can be used as a circle packing, placing equal diameter circles at the center of every point. Every circle is in contact with 3 other circles in the packing (kissing number).[1]
Variations
One variations on this pattern, often called a Mediterranean pattern, is shown in stone tiles with smaller squares and diagonally aligned with the borders. Other variations stretch the squares or octagons.
The Pythagorean tiling alternates large and small squares, and may be seen as topologically identical to the truncated square tiling. The squares are rotated 45 degrees and octagons are distorted into squares with mid-edge vertices.
A weaving pattern also has the same topology, with octagons flattened rectangles.

Wythoff constructions from square tiling
Drawing the tiles colored as red on the original faces, yellow at the original vertices, and blue along the original edges, all 8 forms are distinct. However treating faces identically, there are only three unique topologically forms: square tiling, truncated square tiling, snub square tiling.

Tetrakis square tiling
Main article: Tetrakis square tiling
The tetrakis square tiling is the tiling of the Euclidean plane dual to the truncated square tiling. It can be constructed square tiling with each square divided into four isosceles right triangles from the center point, forming an infinite arrangement of lines. It can also be formed by subdividing each square of a grid into two triangles by a diagonal, with the diagonals alternating in direction, or by overlaying two square grids, one rotated by 45 degrees from the other and scaled by a factor of √2.
Conway calls it a kisquadrille,[2] represented by a kis operation that adds a center point and triangles to replace the faces of a square tiling (quadrille). It is also called the Union Jack lattice because of the resemblance to the UK flag of the triangles surrounding its degree-8 vertices.[3]

Chamfer (geometry)
In geometry, chamfering or edge-truncation is a topological operator that modifies one polyhedron into another. It is similar to expansion, moving faces apart and outward, but also maintains the original vertices. For polyhedra, this operation adds a new hexagonal face in place of each original edge.
Unchamfered, slightly chamfered and chamfered cube
Historical crystal models of slightly chamfered Platonic solids
In Conway polyhedron notation it is represented by the letter c. A polyhedron with e edges will have a chamfered form containing 2e new vertices, 3e new edges, and e new hexagonal faces.
Chamfered Platonic solids
In the chapters below the chamfers of the five Platonic solids are described in detail. Each is shown in a version with edges of equal length and in a canonical version where all edges touch the same midsphere. (They only look noticeably different for solids containing triangles.) The shown duals are dual to the canonical versions.

The chamfered cube is a convex polyhedron with 32 vertices, 48 edges, and 18 faces: 12 hexagons and 6 squares. It is constructed as a chamfer of a cube. The squares are reduced in size and new hexagonal faces are added in place of all the original edges. Its dual is the tetrakis cuboctahedron.
It is also inaccurately called a truncated rhombic dodecahedron, although that name rather suggests a rhombicuboctahedron. It can more accurately be called a tetratruncated rhombic dodecahedron because only the order-4 vertices are truncated.
The hexagonal faces are equilateral but not regular. They are formed by a truncated rhombus, have 2 internal angles of about 109.47°, or $\cos ^{-1}(-{\frac {1}{3}})$, and 4 internal angles of about 125.26°, while a regular hexagon would have all 120° angles.
Because all its faces have an even number of sides with 180° rotation symmetry, it is a zonohedron. It is also the Goldberg polyhedron GPIV(2,0) or {4+,3}2,0, containing square and hexagonal faces.
The chamfered cube is the Minkowski sum of a rhombic dodecahedron and a cube of side length 1 when eight vertices of the rhombic dodecahedron are at $(\pm 1,\pm 1,\pm 1)$ and its six vertices are at the permutations of $(\pm {\sqrt {3}},0,0)$.
A topological equivalent with pyritohedral symmetry and rectangular faces can be constructed by chamfering the axial edges of a pyritohedron. This occurs in pyrite crystals.

In geometry, the chamfered octahedron is a convex polyhedron constructed from the rhombic dodecahedron by truncating the 8 (order 3) vertices.
It can also be called a tritruncated rhombic dodecahedron, a truncation of the order-3 vertices of the rhombic dodecahedron.
The 8 vertices are truncated such that all edges are equal length. The original 12 rhombic faces become flattened hexagons, and the truncated vertices become triangles.
The hexagonal faces are equilateral but not regular.

Main article: Chamfered dodecahedron
The chamfered dodecahedron is a convex polyhedron with 80 vertices, 120 edges, and 42 faces: 30 hexagons and 12 pentagons. It is constructed as a chamfer of a regular dodecahedron. The pentagons are reduced in size and new hexagonal faces are added in place of all the original edges. Its dual is the pentakis icosidodecahedron.
It is also inaccurately called a truncated rhombic triacontahedron, although that name rather suggests a rhombicosidodecahedron. It can more accurately be called a pentatruncated rhombic triacontahedron because only the order-5 vertices are truncated.

Relation to Goldberg polyhedra
The chamfer operation applied in series creates progressively larger polyhedra with new hexagonal faces replacing edges from the previous one. The chamfer operator transforms GP(m,n) to GP(2m,2n).
A regular polyhedron, GP(1,0), create a Goldberg polyhedra sequence: GP(1,0), GP(2,0), GP(4,0), GP(8,0), GP(16,0)...

Chamfered polytopes and honeycombs
Like the expansion operation, chamfer can be applied to any dimension. For polygons, it triples the number of vertices. For polychora, new cells are created around the original edges. The cells are prisms, containing two copies of the original face, with pyramids augmented onto the prism sides.

Cyclotruncated simplectic honeycomb
In geometry, the cyclotruncated simplectic honeycomb (or cyclotruncated n-simplex honeycomb) is a dimensional infinite series of honeycombs, based on the symmetry of the ${\tilde {A}}_{n}$ affine Coxeter group. It is given a Schläfli symbol t0,1{3[n+1]}, and is represented by a Coxeter-Dynkin diagram as a cyclic graph of n+1 nodes with two adjacent nodes ringed. It is composed of n-simplex facets, along with all truncated n-simplices.
It is also called a Kagome lattice in two and three dimensions, although it is not a lattice.
In n-dimensions, each can be seen as a set of n+1 sets of parallel hyperplanes that divide space. Each hyperplane contains the same honeycomb of one dimension lower.
In 1-dimension, the honeycomb represents an apeirogon, with alternately colored line segments. In 2-dimensions, the honeycomb represents the trihexagonal tiling, with Coxeter graph . In 3-dimensions it represents the quarter cubic honeycomb, with Coxeter graph filling space with alternately tetrahedral and truncated tetrahedral cells. In 4-dimensions it is called a cyclotruncated 5-cell honeycomb, with Coxeter graph , with 5-cell, truncated 5-cell, and bitruncated 5-cell facets. In 5-dimensions it is called a cyclotruncated 5-simplex honeycomb, with Coxeter graph , filling space by 5-simplex, truncated 5-simplex, and bitruncated 5-simplex facets. In 6-dimensions it is called a cyclotruncated 6-simplex honeycomb, with Coxeter graph , filling space by 6-simplex, truncated 6-simplex, bitruncated 6-simplex, and tritruncated 6-simplex facets.

Projection by folding
The cyclotruncated (2n+1)- and 2n-simplex honeycombs and (2n-1)-simplex honeycombs can be projected into the n-dimensional hypercubic honeycomb by a geometric folding operation that maps two pairs of mirrors into each other, sharing the same vertex arrangement:
${\tilde {A}}_{3}$ ${\tilde {A}}_{5}$ ${\tilde {A}}_{7}$ ${\tilde {A}}_{9}$ ${\tilde {A}}_{11}$ ...
