A Möbius strip of half-width $w$ with midcircle of radius

$R$ and at height $z=0$ can be represented parametrically by :

$\backslash begin\{cases\}\%\; x=\backslash left(R+s\backslash times\backslash cos\; \backslash left(\backslash frac\{t\}\{2\}\backslash right)\backslash right)\backslash cos(t)\backslash \backslash \; y=\backslash left(R+s\backslash times\backslash cos\; \backslash left(\backslash frac\{t\}\{2\}\backslash right)\backslash right)\backslash sin(t)\backslash \backslash \; z=s\backslash times\backslash sin\; \backslash left(\backslash frac\{t\}\{2\}\backslash right)\; \backslash end\{cases\}$

for $s$ in $[-w\backslash ,;\backslash ,w]$ and $t$ in $[0\backslash ,;\backslash ,2\backslash pi]$. In this parametrization, the Möbius strip is therefore a cubic surface with equation

$-R2y+x2y+y3-2Rxz-2x2z-2y2z+yz2=0$

The spherical harmonics $Y\_l^m(\backslash theta,\backslash varphi)$ are the angular portion of the solution to Laplace's equation in spherical coordinates where azimuthal symmetry is not present.

The spherical harmonics are defined by:

$Y\_l^m(\backslash theta,\backslash varphi)=\backslash sqrt\{\backslash frac\{2l+1\}\{4\backslash pi\}\backslash frac\{(l-m)!\}\{(l+m)!\}\}P\_\{l\}^\{m\}(\backslash cos\backslash theta)e^\{im\backslash varphi\}$

where $m=-l,\backslash ,-(l-1),\backslash ,\backslash ldots,\backslash ,0,\backslash ,\backslash ldots,\backslash ,l-1,\backslash ,l$ and $P\_l^m$ is the Legendre polynomial.
