2868:) . To represent an image in this coordinate system rather than in Cartesian coordinates, gives computational advantages when rotating or zooming in an image. Also, the photo receptors in the retina in the human eye are distributed in a way that has big similarities with the spiral coordinate system. It can also be found in the Mandelbrot fractal (see picture to the right). 2633: 2621: 2714:. The electrical network will then serve as a discrete model for the Dirichlet problem in the unit disc, where the Laplace equation takes the form of Kirchhoff's law. On the nodes on the boundary of the circle, an electrical potential (Dirichlet data) is defined, which induces an electric current (Neumann data) through the boundary nodes. The linear operator 2645: 1396: 1561: 1181: 2652:
In order to solve a PDE numerically in a domain, a discrete coordinate system must be introduced in this domain. If the domain has rotational symmetry and you want a grid consisting of rectangles, polar coordinates are a poor choice, since in the center of the circle it gives rise to triangles rather

The latter coordinate system is for instance suitable for dealing with Dirichlet and Neumann problems. If the discrete coordinate system is interpreted as an undirected graph in the unit disc, it can be considered as a model for an electrical network. To every line segment in the graph is associated

When one wants to solve the Dirichlet problem in a domain with rotational symmetry, the usual thing to do is to use the method of separation of variables for partial differential equations for Laplace's equation in polar form. This means that you write

i.e. the complex exponential function. From this follows that basic equations in harmonic and complex analysis will have the same simple form as in Cartesian coordinates. This is not the case for polar coordinates.

is a positive integer. Use the complex exponential function to create a log-polar grid in the plane. The left half-plane is then mapped onto the unit disc, with the number of radii equal to

It can be even more advantageous to instead map the diagonals in these squares, which gives a discrete coordinate system in the unit disc consisting of spirals, see the figure to the right. 1967: 1959: 1724: 1692: 1556:{\displaystyle {\frac {\partial P}{\partial \rho }}={\frac {\partial \Phi }{\partial \theta }},\ \ \ \ \ \ {\frac {\partial P}{\partial \theta }}=-{\frac {\partial \Phi }{\partial \rho }}} 1245: 673: 428: 1051: 75:-axis) and the line through the origin and the point. The angular coordinate is the same as for polar coordinates, while the radial coordinate is transformed according to the rule 863: 2739: 2318: 1572: 2479: 802: 109: 456: 2772: 1431: 2712: 2653:

2671: 2150: 2443: 2276: 268: 961:. Thus, when considering Laplace's equation for a part of the plane with rotational symmetry, e.g. a circular disk, log-polar coordinates is the natural choice. 2610: 2590: 2499: 1176:{\displaystyle {\frac {\partial u}{\partial x}}={\frac {\partial v}{\partial y}},\ \ \ \ \ \ {\frac {\partial u}{\partial y}}=-{\frac {\partial v}{\partial x}}} 133: 2784: 807: 1401:
Just as in the case with Laplace's equation, the simple form of Cartesian coordinates is recovered by changing polar into log-polar coordinates (let
657:{\displaystyle r{\frac {\partial }{\partial r}}\left(r{\frac {\partial u}{\partial r}}\right)+{\frac {\partial ^{2}u}{\partial \theta ^{2}}}=0} 2152:

Thus, once again the natural choice for a domain with rotational symmetry is not polar, but rather log-polar, coordinates. 67:

Already at the end of the 1970s, applications for the discrete spiral coordinate system were given in image analysis (

Log-polar coordinates can also be used to construct fast methods for the Radon transform and its inverse.
