In geometry, the concept of a Maurer rose was introduced by Peter M. Maurer in his article titled A Rose is a Rose. A Maurer rose consists of some lines that connect some points on a rose curve.
Definition
Let r = sin(nθ) be a rose in the polar coordinate system, where n is a positive integer. The rose has n petals if n is odd, and 2n petals if n is even. We then take 361 points on the rose:
(sin(nk), k) (k = 0, d,
2d, 3d, ..., 360d), where d is a positive integer and the angles are in degrees, not radians. A Maurer rose of the rose r = sin(nθ) consists of the 360 lines successively connecting the above 361 points. Thus a Maurer rose is a polygonal curve
with vertices on a rose.
