| Abstract: |
The article discusses solutions to the inverse curvature problem in relation to the subject of calculus. Topics covered include computing for curvatures through differential equations and Chebyshev conditions, the origin of curvatures in describing shapes which was linked to the study "The Method of Fluxions and Infinite Series, with its Applications to the Geometry of Curved-Lines," and the significance of the inverse curvature problem in differential geometry. |
