Focus (geometry)

In geometry, focuses or foci (/ˈfoʊkaɪ/), singular focus, are special points with reference to which any of a variety of curves is constructed. For example, one or two foci can be used in defining conic sections, the four types of which are the circle, ellipse, parabola, and hyperbola. In addition, two foci are used to define the Cassini oval and the Cartesian oval, and more than two foci are used in defining an n-ellipse. (Wikipedia).

Steve Trettel - Visiting the Thurston Geometries: Computer Graphics in Curved Space - CoM Feb 2021

A beautiful observation of classical physics is that “light travels in straight lines” is only an approximation to reality. More precisely, light always takes a geodesic – a path between two points minimizing its time of travel. While this is often used to explain physical phenomena mathe
