Loci of Poncelet Triangles with Multiple Caustics


الملخص بالإنكليزية

We analyze loci of triangles centers over variants of two-well known triangle porisms: the bicentric family and the confocal family. Specifically, we evoke a more general version of Poncelets closure theorem whereby individual sides can be made tangent to separate caustics. We show that despite a more complicated dynamic geometry, the locus of certain triangle centers and associated points remain conics and/or circles.
