Examples of 'riemann sphere' in a sentence

Meaning of "riemann sphere"

riemann sphere - a concept in mathematics and complex analysis that extends the complex numbers to include a point at infinity. The Riemann sphere is used to represent the complex plane with an added point at infinity, providing a geometric interpretation for mapping functions and understanding complex functions
Show more definitions
  • The complex numbers extended with the number ∞; the complex plane (representation of the complex numbers as a Euclidean plane) extended with a single idealised point at infinity and consequently homeomorphic to a sphere in 3-dimensional Euclidean space.
  • The 2-sphere embedded in Euclidean three-dimensional space and often represented as a unit sphere, regarded as a homeomorphic representation of the extended complex plane and thus the extended complex numbers.
