14cubic spline — A mathematical technique used for yield curve smoothing. A cubic spline fits a different third degree polynomial to each interval between data points (0 to 1 years, 1 to 2 years, 2 to 3 years, etc.) Either yields or prices can be smoothed using… …
15Algebraic curve — In algebraic geometry, an algebraic curve is an algebraic variety of dimension one. The theory of these curves in general was quite fully developed in the nineteenth century, after many particular examples had been considered, starting with… …
