Four-dimensional space (4D) is the mathematical extension of the concept of three-dimensional space (3D). Three-dimensional space is the simplest possible...

In mathematics, the group of rotations about a fixed point in four-dimensional Euclidean space is denoted SO(4). The name comes from the fact that it is...

In mathematics, a Euclidean group is the group of (Euclidean) isometries of a Euclidean space E n {\displaystyle \mathbb {E} ^{n}} ; that is, the transformations...

projective space may thus be viewed as the extension of a Euclidean space, or, more generally, an affine space with points at infinity, in such a way...

In geometry, a hyperplane is a generalization of a two-dimensional plane in three-dimensional space to mathematical spaces of arbitrary dimension. Like...

A two-dimensional Euclidean space is a two-dimensional space on the plane. The inside of a cube, a cylinder or a sphere is three-dimensional (3D) because...
