Reiss (surname)
Reiss is a surname of Old German origin, and was most commonly used by Ashkenazic Jewish people as a metonymic occupational name for a dealer in rice (''Yiddish'' רײַז), or as an ornamental name from the Old High German word ''Reis'' ‘twig,’ ‘branch.’ Reiss (often written with the German letter ß (or ''sharp-s'') is mostly originated in Austria and South Germany. The south German or Austrian Reiss is a leftover of a profession name Reußhäusler which could best be translated to ''maker of charcoal from wood'' in English. Members of this profession usually have been free residents (in the meaning of not enslaved and not belonging to a Duke or King) and got very early the right to carry a weapon (axe) and a uniform like dress, comparable to miners. Several Jewish sources for the surname Reiss stem from the German state of Hessen (Frankfurt am Main). Some historians wrote that Reiss could refer to a rice dealer, or to a water-gate operator, or a fisherman who used a f ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Reiss Relation
In algebraic geometry, the Reiss relation, introduced by , is a condition on the second-order elements of the points of a plane algebraic curve meeting a given line. Statement If ''C'' is a complex plane curve given by the zeros of a polynomial ''f''(''x'',''y'') of two variables, and ''L'' is a line meeting ''C'' transversely and not meeting ''C'' at infinity, then :\sum\frac=0 where the sum is over the points of intersection of ''C'' and ''L'', and ''f''''x'', ''f''''xy'' and so on stand for partial derivatives of ''f'' . This can also be written as :\sum\frac=0 where κ is the curvature of the curve ''C'' and θ is the angle its tangent line makes with ''L'', and the sum is again over the points of intersection of ''C'' and ''L'' .
