Things are pretty, graceful, rich, elegant,
handsome, but, until they speak to the
imagination, not yet beautiful....
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Functions and equations
The following functions and equations are in mathematics known under the term cardioid. They got this name because they all have a particular shape, which makes it possible to recognise them very easily. There are mathematicians who studied these mathematical structures. I will present a few of their results to show that mathematics can be much more than a dry and boring subject. Mathematics can even be the most romantic thing on earth.
