Translation (geometry) of the object. The translation vector formula_8 common to all points of the object describes a particular type of displacement of the object, usually called a "linear" displacement to distinguish it from displacements involving rotation, called "angular" displacements. When considering spacetime, a change of time coordinate is considered to be a translation. For example, the Galilean group and the Poincaré group include translations with respect to time. Translation (geometry) In Euclidean geometry, a translation is a geometric transformation that moves every point of a figure or a space by the same distance in a given direction. In Euclidean geometry a
Singular point of an algebraic variety Analysis of these singular points can be reduced to the algebraic variety case by considering the jets of the mapping. The "k"-th jet is the Taylor series of the mapping truncated at degree "k" and deleting the constant term. In classical algebraic geometry, certain special singular points were also called nodes. A node is a singular point where the Hessian matrix is non-singular; this implies that the singular point has multiplicity two and the tangent cone is not singular outside its vertex. Singular point of an algebraic variety In the mathematical field of algebraic geometry, a singular point of an
