	Geometric progression - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In mathematics, a geometric progression (also inaccurately known as a geometric series, see below) is a sequence of numbers such that the quotient of any two successive members of the sequence is a constant called the common ratio of the sequence.
		A non-zero geometric progression shows exponential growth or exponential decay.
		An infinite geometric series is an infinite series whose successive terms have a common ratio.

	Geometric Sequences
		A geometric sequence is a sequence in which each successive term is formed by multiplying the same number.
		In a geometric sequence, the ratio between consecutive terms is constant.
		The sequence is geometric with a first term of 2 and a common ratio of -4/2 = -2.

	MATHGuide's Geometric Sequences
		In this section, you will learn how to identify geometric sequences, calculate the nth term of geometric sequences, find the number of terms in an geometric sequence and find the sum of geometric sequences.
		Sequence C is a little different because it seems that we are dividing; yet to stay consistent with the theme of geometric sequences, we must think in terms of multiplication.
		It may be necessary to calculate the number of terms in a certain geometric sequence.

	DIMACS Workshop Implementation of Geometric Algorithms (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		This difficulty arises in part from the conceptual complexity of geometric algorithms, the proliferation of special cases, the dependence of combinatorial decisions on numerical computation, and frequent theoretical focus on worst-case asymptotic behavior.
		To be useful, geometric algorithms must be able to repair such data, that is, in some fashion eliminate inconsistencies.
		Geometric data structures are known that can represent complex structures in any dimension.

	A Theoretic Model for Linear Geometric ICA - Theis, Jung, Lang (ResearchIndex)
		Abstract: Geometric algorithms for linear ICA have recently received some attention due to their pictorial description and their relative ease of implementation.
		The geometric approach to ICA has been proposed first by Puntonet and Prieto [1] [2] in order to separate linear mixtures.
		We will reconsider geometric ICA in a solid theoretic framework showing that fixpoints of geometric ICA fulfill a so called geometric convergence condition, which the mixed images of the unit vectors satisfy, too.

	Question Corner -- Applications of the Geometric Mean
		In the same way, the geometric mean is relevant any time several quantities multiply together to produce a product.
		The geometric mean answers the question, "if all the quantities had the same value, what would that value have to be in order to achieve the same product?"
		If you calculate this geometric mean you get approximately 1.283, so the average rate of return is about 28% (not 30% which is what the arithmetic mean of 10%, 60%, and 20% would give you).

	Geometric Harmonic Mean (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		In mathematics, the geometric-harmonic mean M(x, y) of two positive real numbers x and y is defined as follows: we first form the geometric mean of x and y and call it g
		Both of these sequences converge to the same number, which we call the geometric-harmonic mean M(x, y) of x and y.
		M(x, y) is a number between the geometric and harmonic mean of x and y; in particular it is between x and y.

	Geometric Primitives in Web Design. Introduction - webreference.com
		Before attempting to tame complex design elements, you must be utterly familiar with simple geometric forms, their uses, misuses, behavior, and limitations.
		Yes, as little as a century ago you couldn't produce a book without a minimum of rococo decorations (leafs, flowers, tracery, etc.); but these days, a well-balanced composition of simple geometric forms is more likely to qualify as the graphic theme for a book cover or web page.
		In a sense, rectangles and circles used in design are also sort of "other people's art." A child is unlikely to discover the beauty of ideal circles unless he acquires this notion from the entire design culture surrounding him as he grows up.

		They have a simple, geometric shape, and their serifs (the small protrusions from the ends of the letter) are in the "slab" family, which means they, too, are simple.
		The "x-height" (the height of the lowercase letter "x") is relatively large, but not so large that it makes reading difficult in the web where there is little real control over leading (the space between the lines).

		Physics is greatly facilitated by the use of Hestenes' spacetime algebra, which automatically incorporates the geometric structure of spacetime.

	Digital Circuit Sizing via Geometric Programming (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		ABSTRACT: This tutorial paper concerns a method for digital circuit sizing based on formulating the problem as a geometric program (GP), a special type of mathematical optimization problem that can be very efficiently solved.
		We start with a basic gate scaling problem, with delay modeled as a simple RC time constant, and then add various layers of complexity and modeling accuracy, such as accounting for differing fall and rise times, effects of signal transition times, and so on.
		In all cases our focus is on formulating the problem as a GP, or an extension of GP called generalized geometric programming (GGP).
