Dilation is a research area in mathematics that deals with the transformation of geometric shapes by expanding or enlarging them. This transformation involves scaling all of the dimensions of a shape by a specified factor, resulting in a larger version of the original shape. Dilation is a fundamental concept in geometry and is often used in various applications, such as computer graphics, image processing, and geometric modeling. Researchers in this area study the properties and characteristics of dilations and develop algorithms to implement them effectively in different context.
