Geometrography

http://dbpedia.org/resource/Geometrography an entity of type: Book

Onder geometrografie wordt in de wiskunde verstaan de studie van de complexiteit van constructies van meetkundige figuren met passer en (ongemerkte) liniaal (verder afgekort als p&l). Een constructie van een figuur gebaseerd op deze theorie is een geometrografische constructie. rdf:langString
In the mathematical field of geometry, geometrography is the study of geometrical constructions. The concepts and methods of geometrography were first expounded by Émile Lemoine (1840–1912), a French civil engineer and a mathematician, in a meeting of the French Association for the Advancement of the Sciences held at Oran in 1888. Lemoine later expanded his ideas in another memoir read at the Pau meeting of the same Association held in 1892. rdf:langString

rdf:langString In the mathematical field of geometry, geometrography is the study of geometrical constructions. The concepts and methods of geometrography were first expounded by Émile Lemoine (1840–1912), a French civil engineer and a mathematician, in a meeting of the French Association for the Advancement of the Sciences held at Oran in 1888. Lemoine later expanded his ideas in another memoir read at the Pau meeting of the same Association held in 1892. It is well known in elementary geometry that certain geometrical constructions are simpler than certain others. But in many case it turns out that the apparent simplicity of a construction does not consist in the practical execution of the construction, but in the brevity of the statement of what has to be done. Can then any objective criterion be laid down by which an estimate may be formed of the relative simplicity of several different constructions for attaining the same end? Lemoine developed the ideas of geometrography to answer this question. The question of the ubiquity of a construction is also raised. Whether or not a construction, regardless of simplicity, can be applied in all or most conditions, or just in the special cases, is an important consideration.
