Wikipedia

  1. actiniform

    In geometry, a set S {\displaystyle S} in the Euclidean space R n {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{n}} is called a star domain (or star-convex set, star-shaped set or radially convex set) if there exists an s 0 ∈ S {\displaystyle s_{0}\in S} such that for all s ∈ S , {\displaystyle s\in S,} the line segment from s 0 {\displaystyle s_{0}} to s {\displaystyle s} lies in S . {\displaystyle S.} This definition is immediately generalizable to any real, or complex, vector space. Intuitively, if one thinks of S {\displaystyle S} as a region surrounded by a wall, S {\displaystyle S} is a star domain if one can find a vantage point s 0 {\displaystyle s_{0}} in S {\displaystyle S} from which any point s {\displaystyle s} in S {\displaystyle S} is within line-of-sight. A similar, but distinct, concept is that of a radial set.
