Lemniscate
In algebraic geometry, a lemniscate ( or ) is any of several figure-eight or -shaped curves. The word comes from the Latin , meaning "decorated with ribbons", from the Greek (), meaning "ribbon",. or which alternatively may refer to the wool from which the ribbons were made. Curves that have been called a lemniscate include three quartic plane curves: the hippopede or lemniscate of Booth, the lemniscate of Bernoulli, and the lemniscate of Gerono. The hippopede was studied by Proclus (5th century), but the term "lemniscate" was not used until the work of Jacob Bernoulli in the late 17th century. History and examples Lemniscate of Booth The consideration of curves with a figure-eight shape can be traced back to Proclus, a Greek Neoplatonist philosopher and mathematician who lived in the 5th century AD. Proclus considered the cross-sections of a torus by a plane parallel to the axis of the torus. As he observed, for most such sections the cross section consists of either on ...

Polynomial Lemniscate
In mathematics, a polynomial is a mathematical expression consisting of indeterminates (also called variables) and coefficients, that involves only the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and exponentiation to nonnegative integer powers, and has a finite number of terms. An example of a polynomial of a single indeterminate is . An example with three indeterminates is . Polynomials appear in many areas of mathematics and science. For example, they are used to form polynomial equations, which encode a wide range of problems, from elementary word problems to complicated scientific problems; they are used to define polynomial functions, which appear in settings ranging from basic chemistry and physics to economics and social science; and they are used in calculus and numerical analysis to approximate other functions. In advanced mathematics, polynomials are used to construct polynomial rings and algebraic varieties, which are central concepts in algebra and algebraic ...

Infinity Symbol
The infinity symbol () is a mathematical symbol representing the concept of infinity. This symbol is also called a ''lemniscate'', after the lemniscate curves of a similar shape studied in algebraic geometry, or "lazy eight", in the terminology of livestock branding. This symbol was first used mathematically by John Wallis in the 17th century, although it has a longer history of other uses. In mathematics, it often refers to infinite processes ( potential infinity) rather than infinite values ( actual infinity). It has other related technical meanings, such as the use of long-lasting paper in bookbinding, and has been used for its symbolic value of the infinite in modern mysticism and literature. It is a common element of graphic design, for instance in corporate logos as well as in older designs such as the Métis flag. The infinity symbol and several variations of the symbol are available in various character encodings. History The lemniscate has been a common decorativ ...

Lemniscate (album)
''Lemniscate'' is the debut album from Los Angeles–based experimental pop band, Vinyl Williams, led by Lionel Williams. ''Lemniscate'' was released through No Pain In Pop (EU) and Williams' own Salonislam imprint (US) on November 12, 2012. Available formats included 12" vinyl album, CD and download. ''Lemniscate'' features a mix of genres including electronic, krautrock, psychedelia, rock, shoegaze, pop and chillwave. Critical reception The Guardian's New Music critic, Michael Cragg, reviewed the album's track ''Open Your Mind'' in October 2012, while "Lemniscate" as a whole was featured as Rough Trade's "Album Of The Week" shortly after its release. Other media outlets reviewing the album included This is fake DIY and James Skinner from BBC Music BBC Music is the arm of the BBC responsible for the music played across its services.
