Torus Study

Mathematical definitions for a torus
A torus is a closed surface created by the revolution of a circle through three dimensional space. The position of the rotational axis and the size of the circle affect the final donut shape produced by the rotation. The torus is studied closely because if its non-polar topological properties.
