👉 Orbation, a mathematical concept in geometry and algebraic topology, refers to the process of analyzing shapes or geometrical figures by considering their relationship with each other. It involves studying how two geometric objects are connected through lines that form a closed curve (or "orb") between them. The orb is defined as an intersection of two curves, where one curve is contained within the other and both curves have no points in common except for their endpoints. The orb is considered to be closed because it is
