After like terms are combined, an algebraic expression will have at most one constant term. Thus, it is common to speak of the quadratic polynomial math ax 2 bx c, math where x is the variable, and has a constant term of c . If c 0, then the constant term will not actually appear when the quadratic is written. It is notable that a term that is constant, with a constant as a multiplicative coefficient added to it although this expression could be more simply written as their product , still constitutes a constant term ... and coefficient itself classifies as constant. However, should this introduced coefficient contain a variable, while the original number has a constant meaning, this has no bearing if the new term stays constant as the introduced coefficient will always override the constant expression for example, in math x 1 x 2 math when x is multiplied by 2, the result, 2x, is not constant while 1 2 is 2 and still a constant. Any polynomial written in standard form has a unique constant term, which can be considered a coefficient of x sup 0 sup . In particular, the constant term will always be the lowest ....

Unreferenced date December 2009 Seealso space form curvature of Riemannian manifolds sectional curvature In mathematics , constant curvature is a concept from differential geometry . Here, curvature refers to the sectional curvature of a space more precisely a manifold and is a single number determining its local geometry. The sectional curvature is said to be constant if it has the same value at all points. For example, a sphere is a surface of constant positive curvature. classification The geometries of constant curvature can be classified into the following three cases elliptic elliptic geometry constant positive sectional curvature Euclidean Euclidean geometry constant vanishing sectional curvature hyperbolic hyperbolic geometry constant negative sectional curvature properties every space of constant curvature is locally symmetric , i.e. its curvature tensor is parallel math nabla mathrm R 0 math every space of constant curvature is locally maximally symmetric , i.e. it has math frac 1 2 n n 1 math number of Killing vector local isometries , where n is its dimension. conversely, there exists a similar but stronger statement every maximally symmetric space, i.e. a space which has math frac 1 2 n n 1 math global isometries , has constant curvature. the universal cover of a manifold of constant sectional curvature is one of the model spaces sphere sectional curvature positive flat manifold plane sectional curvature zero hyperbolic space hyperbolic manifold sectional curvature nagative a space of constant curvature which is geodesically complete is called space form and the study of space forms is intimately related to generalized crystallography see the article on space form for more details . two space forms are isomorphic if and only if they have the same dimension, their metrics possess the same metric signature signature and their sectional curvatures are equal.
