Experimenting with Different Approaches to Test Colinearity of Points

The subject of collinearity of 3 points on a line is challenging for 7th- grade students. This article discusses the possibilities to demonstrate different approaches for solving collinearity of three points on a line: straight angle, axiom on the uniform mapping of an angle on a half-plane, parallel axiom, vector method, and homothetic features. The experiment was held using GEONExT to demonstrate by visual methods collinearity of three points on a line a district type of problems.

Two Remarkable Points of the Triangle Geometry

It is shown in the paper the discovery of two remarkable points of the triangle by means of “THE GEOMETER’S SKETCHPAD” software. Some properties of the points are considered too.

On The Critical Points of some Iteration Methods for Solving Algebraic Equations. Global Convergence Properties

In this work we give su±cient conditions for k-th approximations of the polynomial roots of f(x) when the Maehly{Aberth{Ehrlich, Werner-Borsch-Supan, Tanabe, Improved Borsch-Supan iteration methods fail on the next step. For these methods all non-attractive sets are found. This is a subsequent improvement of previously developed techniques and known facts. The users of these methods can use the results presented here for software implementation in Distributed Applications and Simulation Environ- ments. Numerical examples with graphics are shown.

Estimation of uncertainty in three-dimensional coordinate measurement by comparison with calibrated points

This paper details a method of estimating the uncertainty of dimensional measurement for a three-dimensional coordinate measurement machine. An experimental procedure was developed to compare three-dimensional coordinate measurements with calibrated reference points. The reference standard used to calibrate these reference points was a fringe counting interferometer with a multilateration-like technique employed to establish three-dimensional coordinates. This is an extension of the established technique of comparing measured lengths with calibrated lengths. Specifically a distributed coordinate measurement device was tested which consisted of a network of Rotary-Laser Automatic Theodolites (R-LATs), this system is known commercially as indoor GPS (iGPS). The method was found to be practical and was used to estimate that the uncertainty of measurement for the basic iGPS system is approximately 1 mm at a 95% confidence level throughout a measurement volume of approximately 10 m × 10 m × 1.5 m. © 2010 IOP Publishing Ltd.

Five Turning Points in the Historical Progress of Statistics - My Personal Vision

Statistics has penetrated almost all branches of science and all areas of human endeavor. At the same time, statistics is not only misunderstood, misused and abused to a frightening extent, but it is also often much disliked by students in colleges and universities. This lecture discusses/covers/addresses the historical development of statistics, aiming at identifying the most important turning points that led to the present state of statistics and at answering the questions “What went wrong with statistics?” and “What to do next?”. ACM Computing Classification System (1998): A.0, A.m, G.3, K.3.2.

On the Critical Points of Kyurkchiev’s Method for Solving Algebraic Equations

This paper is dedicated to Prof. Nikolay Kyurkchiev on the occasion of his 70th anniversary This paper gives sufficient conditions for kth approximations of the zeros of polynomial f (x) under which Kyurkchiev’s method fails on the next step. The research is linked with an attack on the global convergence hypothesis of this commonly used in practice method (as correlate hypothesis for Weierstrass–Dochev’s method). Graphical examples are presented.

Corrigendum for "Weierstrass Points with first Non-Gap four on a Double Covering of a Hyperelliptic Curve"

In the proof of Lemma 3.1 in [1] we need to show that we may take the two points p and q with p ≠ q such that p+q+(b-2)g21(C′)∼2(q1+… +qb-1) where q1,…,qb-1 are points of C′, but in the paper [1] we did not show that p ≠ q. Moreover, we hadn't been able to prove this using the method of our paper [1]. So we must add some more assumption to Lemma 3.1 and rewrite the statements of our paper after Lemma 3.1. The following is the correct version of Lemma 3.1 in [1] with its proof.
