Unreferenced date December 2009 In one dimensional complex dynamics , the Connected space connectedness locus mathematics locus in a parameter space of polynomials or rational functions consists of those parameters for which the corresponding Julia set is connected. Without doubt, the most famous connectedness locus is the Mandelbrot set , which arises from the family math f c z z 2 c , math of complex quadratic polynomial s. The connectedness loci of the higher degree unicritical families, math z mapsto z d c , math where math d geq 3 , math are often called Multibrot set s . For these families, the bifurcation locus is the boundary of the connectedness locus. This is no longer true in settings, such as the full parameter space of cubic polynomials, where there is more than one free critical point mathematics critical point . For these families, even maps with disconnected Julia sets may display nontrivial dynamics. Hence here the connectedness locus is generally of less interest.

Latin for pleasant place , locus amoenus is a literary term which generally refers to an idealized place of safety or comfort. A locus amoenus is usually a beautiful, shady lawn or open woodland, sometimes with connotations of Garden of Eden Eden . In 1953, Ernst Robert Curtius wrote the concept s definitive formulation in his European Literature and the Latin Middle Ages . A locus amoenus will have three basic elements trees, grass, and water. Often, the garden will be in a remote place and function as a landscape of the mind. It can also be used to highlight the differences between urban and rural life or be a place of refuge from the processes of time and mortality. Some gardens in the genre also have overtones of the regenerative powers of human sexuality. ref For more information, see http ia600408.us.archive.org 7 items paradicesonlymap00osma paradicesonlymap00osma.pdf Evett, David.

Horace Ars poetica , 17 and the commentators on Virgil, such as Servius , recognize that descriptions of loci amoeni have become a rhetorical commonplace. In Ovid s Metamorphoses , the function of the locus amoenus is inverted.

Image Locus Curve.svg thumb right 400px A set of loci 2cm, 4cm, 6cm and 8cm from math l math towards math P math . These curves are half of the Conchoid of Nichomedes . In geometry , a locus Latin for place , plural loci is a collection of point geometry points which share a property. For example a circle may be defined as the locus of points in a plane at a fixed distance from a given point. A locus may alternatively be described as the path through which a point moves to fulfill a given condition or conditions. So, for example, a circle may also be defined as the locus of a point moving so as to remain at a given distance from a fixed point. The term occurs in complex dynamics as Bifurcation locus Connectedness locus Proofs involving loci In general, a proof that a locus is a particular curve has two parts. The first part is to show that every point on the curve satisfies the condition of the locus and second part is to show that every point that satisfies the condition is on the curve. For example, to show that the locus of points equidistant between two given different points is their perpendicular bisector , one must show Any point equidistant from the two points lies on the perpendicular bisector, Any point on this line is equidistant from the two given points.

main Linear system of divisors In mathematics , specifically algebraic geometry , the base locus of a linear system of divisors on a Algebraic variety variety refers to the subvariety of points common to all divisors in the linear system. Geometrically, this corresponds to the common intersection of the varieties. Definition More precisely, suppose that math D math is a linear system of divisors on some variety math X math . Consider the intersection math textrm Bl D bigcap D text eff in D textrm Supp D text eff math where math textrm Supp math denotes the support of a divisor, and the intersection is taken over all effective divisors math D text eff math in the linear system. This is the base locus of math D math as a set, at least there may be more subtle Scheme mathematics scheme theoretic considerations as to what the Ringed space structure sheaf of math textrm Bl math should be . One application of the notion of base locus is to Numerically effective nefness of a Cartier divisor class i.e. complete linear system . Suppose math D math is such a class on a variety math X math , and math C math an irreducible curve on math X math . If math C math is not contained in the base locus of math D math , then there exists some divisor math tilde D math in the class which does not contain math C math , and so intersects it properly. Basic facts from intersection theory then tell us that we must have math D cdot C geq 0 math . The conclusion is that to check nefness of a divisor class, it suffices to compute the intersection number with curves contained in the base locus of the class. So, roughly speaking, the smaller the base locus, the more likely it is that the class is nef. In the modern formulation of algebraic geometry, a linear system math D math of Cartier divisors on a variety ... locus math textrm Bl D math is the set of common zeroes of all sections of math L D math .
