Convex and Concave Even the image on the flag is of reversible cubes. One can view these features as concave by viewing the image upside-down. All additional elements and decoration on the left are consistent with a viewpoint from above, while those on the right with a viewpoint from below: hiding half the image makes it very easy to switch between convex and concave. Convex and Concave Convex and Concave is a lithograph print by the Dutch artist M. C. Escher, first printed in March 1955. It depicts an ornate architectural structure with many stairs, pillars and other shapes. The relative aspects of
Luneburg lens one side, and formula_14 only on the other: The parameter formula_19 is a constant for any given ray, but differs between rays passing at different distances from the centre of the lens. For rays passing through the centre, it is zero. In some special cases, such as for Maxwell's fish-eye, this first order equation can be further integrated to give a formula for formula_14 as a function or formula_13. In general it provides the relative rates of change of formula_14 and formula_13, which may be integrated numerically to follow the path of the ray through the lens. Luneburg lens A
