GLOBAL PROPERTIES OF CURVES IN THE PLANE AND IN SPACE
Curves are objects that resemble lines that are not necessarily straight. Intuitively, a curve can be thought of as a trace left by a moving point. An example of a curve is the plane curve (i.e. curves in two dimensional spaces). Another real example is the helix which occurs naturally in three d...

Summary: | Curves are objects that resemble lines that are not necessarily straight. Intuitively,
a curve can be thought of as a trace left by a moving point. An example of a
curve is the plane curve (i.e. curves in two dimensional spaces). Another real
example is the helix which occurs naturally in three dimensions. Curves are needed
in geometry and classical mechanics, as intuitions about curves in several dimensions
are necessary. In general relativity, gravity is the curvature of space-time. |
