Wikipedia

  1. hyperellipse

    A superellipse, also known as a Lamé curve after Gabriel Lamé, is a closed curve resembling the ellipse, retaining the geometric features of semi-major axis and semi-minor axis, and symmetry about them, but a different overall shape. In the Cartesian coordinate system, the set of all points ( x , y ) {\displaystyle (x,y)} on the curve satisfy the equation | x a | n + | y b | n = 1 , {\displaystyle \left|{\frac {x}{a}}\right|^{n}\!\!+\left|{\frac {y}{b}}\right|^{n}\!=1,} where n , a {\displaystyle n,a} and b {\displaystyle b} are positive numbers, and the vertical bars around a number indicate the absolute value of the number. The 3-dimensional generalization is called superellipsoid (some literatures also name it superquadrics).
