🧿 Complex Function Visualizer

This shows how each point in the complex plane gets transformed by your selected function.

Fourier Transform
Solve → θ → Coagula
\[ F(\omega)=\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} f(t)e^{-i\omega t}\,dt \]
Solve θ Coagula

Hermetic Interpretation

Solve represents harmonic dissolution, where f(t) is decomposed into oscillatory modes.

θ marks rotational phase — the boundary where decomposition shifts into recomposition.

Coagula is harmonic condensation: the frequency domain re-emerges into structured form.

Witch of Agnesi

Geometric Construction

(x, y) = (0, 0)
a = 2.0
📈 Curve Equation

\[ y = \frac{8a^3}{x^2 + 4a^2} \]

Parametric:

\[ x = 2a\tan\theta \]

\[ y = 2a\cos^2\theta \]

📐 Geometric Construction
  1. Circle with diameter 2a centered at (0, a)
  2. Line through origin with slope \(t\)
  3. Intersection point P with circle
  4. Project P horizontally to y-axis → Q
  5. The locus of Q is the Witch curve
📊 Mathematical Properties
  • Asymptote: \(\lim_{x\to\pm\infty}y=0\)
  • Max point: \(y_{\max}=2a\)
  • Area: \(A=4\pi a^2\)
  • Volume: \(V=4\pi^2 a^3\)
📜 Historical Background

Named after Maria Gaetana Agnesi (1718–1799).

“Witch” is a mistranslation of the Italian versiera.

\[ y = a\sqrt{\frac{a-x}{x}} \]

The Cartan Tartan

A Recursive Grid Woven over Dynamic Fourier Harmonics
Why “The Cartan Tartan” Matters ▸

The Cartan Tartan blends two worlds:

  • Élie Cartan’s structural geometry — recursion, symmetry, and decomposition of spaces.
  • Tartan’s woven pattern language — nested squares, recursive subdivision, and self-similar crosshatching.

Here, the Fourier harmonic backdrop acts as a shifting manifold, while the recursive quadtree subdivides itself over time — echoing Cartan’s ideas of structure-from-structure.

This name conveys:

  • Recursion — fractal quadtree depth
  • Harmony — Fourier interference field
  • Geometry — Cartan’s influence across modern mathematics
  • Weaving — the grid’s tartan-like appearance

It is playful, symbolic, and mathematically accurate — a signature blend of harmonic analysis and recursive geometry.
