How to reconstruct a closed loop like a circle or a loop with continuous curvature change i.e. arbitrary shape by using the Frenet-Serret equation

I want to reconstruct a closed loop in 2D or 3D space (depending on whether there is torsion or not) through calculating the Frenet-Serret equations the Frenet-Serret equations, just like the figure below The final shape I want to reconstruct. The…

On loop space of a product

[consider good spaces so the objects and question make sense] Who was the first to prove that the loop space of a product is homeomorphic to the product of the loop spaces? $$\Omega(X\times Y)\approx \Omega X\times \Omega Y$$ [any references are…

Math loop but solves when x is correct

Is there a calculation of some sort that loops itself when for example x =1 but stops looping and solves when x is for example 5.
