    definition 1. point-to-set distance [hart1996sphere, def. 1] [ag-000R]

      The point-to-set distance defines the distance from a point \(\boldsymbol {x} \in \mathbb {R}^3\) to a set \(A \subset \mathbb {R}^3\) as the distance from \(x\) to the closest point in \(A\), \[ d(\boldsymbol {x}, A)=\min _{y \in A}\lVert \boldsymbol {x}-\boldsymbol {y}\rVert \]

      definition 2. signed distance bound [hart1996sphere, def. 2] [ag-000S]

        A function \(f: \mathbb {R}^3 \rightarrow \mathbb {R}\) is a signed distance bound of its implicit surface \(f^{-1}(0)\) if and only if \[ |f(\boldsymbol {x})| \leq d\left (\boldsymbol {x}, f^{-1}(0)\right ) \] If equality holds, then \(f\) is a signed distance function.

        definition 3. Lipschitz bound [hart1996sphere, def. 3] [ag-000P]

          A function \(f: \mathbb {R}^3 \rightarrow \mathbb {R}\) is Lipschitz over a domain \(D\) if and only if for all \(\boldsymbol {x}, \boldsymbol {y} \in D\), there exists a positive finite constant \(\lambda \), called Lipschitz bound, such that \[ |f(\boldsymbol {x})-f(\boldsymbol {y})| \leq \lambda \lVert \boldsymbol {x}-\boldsymbol {y}\rVert . \] The Lipschitz constant, denoted \(\operatorname {Lip} f\), is the minimum \(\lambda \) satisfying the condition above.

          theorem 4.  [gillespie2024ray, thm. 1] [ag-000T]

            Let \(f\) be Lipschitz with Lipschitz bound \(\lambda \geq \) Lip \(f\). Then the function \(f / \lambda \) is a signed distance bound of its implicit surface.

            definition 5. sphere tracing [hart1996sphere, sec. 2.3, eq. 12] [ag-001I]

              The sphere tracing algorithm is to march a ray by an adaptive safe step size, which is the absolute value of the signed distance bound calculated by \(F/\lambda \) per theorem 4, the rest is the same as ray marching (naïve).

              Formally, the root found by sphere tracing is the limit point of the sequence defined by the recurrence equation \[t_{i+1} = t_i + \frac {|F(t_i)|}{\lambda } = t_i + \frac {f(\boldsymbol {r}(t_i))}{\lambda } \] where \(F\) is the ray intersection, and \(f\) is the SDF.

              Usually \(\lambda = 1\), and \(F(t_i)\) stays positive until the stopping condition \(F(t_i) < \epsilon \) is met, so the above can be simplified to \[t_{i+1} = t_i + F(t_i) = t_i + f(\boldsymbol {r}(t_i)) \]

                  add the algorithm and the shader for sphere tracing

                  theorem 8.  [gillespie2024ray, thm. 2] [ag-000U]

                    Given a function \(F: \mathbb {R} \rightarrow \mathbb {R}\) with Lipschitz bound \(\lambda \geq \) Lip \(F\), and an initial point \(t_0\), sphere tracing converges linearly to the smallest root greater than \(t_0\).

                    remark 9.  [ag-000Q]

                      theorem 8 means that sphere tracing requires the function to be Lipschitz, i.e. has a known Lipschitz bound.

                      Not all functions are Lipschitz, e.g. Harmonic Functions are not globally Lipschitz, many may have no local Lipschitz bound even within small neighborhoods, thus requires a new technique named Harnack tracing developed in [gillespie2024ray].

                          implicit surfaces [ag-000M]

                            definition. level set [wiki-level-set] [ag-000Y]

                               A level set of a real-valued function \(f\) (a.k.a. an iso-contour of a scalar field in 3D) \[L_c(f)=\left \{\boldsymbol {x} \mid \forall \boldsymbol {x} \in X, f(\boldsymbol {x})=c \right \} \] where \(c\) is a constant.

                              definition. implicit surface [winchenbach2024lipschitz, sec. 1] [ag-000X]

                                Let \(\Omega \) be a subset of a topological space \(X\), and \(\partial \Omega \) be its boundary.

                                \(\partial \Omega \) as an implicit surface can be defined by a level set \(L_0(f)\) where \[ f(\boldsymbol {p})\begin {cases} \le 0 & \text { if } \boldsymbol {p} \in \Omega \\ > 0 & \text { if } \boldsymbol {p} \notin \Omega \end {cases} \]

                                SDFs [ag-000Z]

                                  definition. signed distance function [wiki-sdf] [ag-000I]

                                    Let \(\Omega \) be a subset of a metric space \(X\) with metric \(d\), and \(\partial \Omega \) be its boundary. The distance between a point \(\boldsymbol {p}\) of \(X\) and the subset \(\partial \Omega \) of \(X\) is defined as usual as \[ d(\boldsymbol {p}, \partial \Omega )=\inf _{\boldsymbol {q} \in \partial \Omega } d(\boldsymbol {p}, \boldsymbol {q}) \] where \(\inf \) denotes the infimum, i.e. the greatest lower bound.

                                    The signed distance function or signed distance field (SDF) from a point \(\boldsymbol {p}\) of \(X\) to \(\Omega \) is defined by \[ f(\boldsymbol {p})= \begin {cases} -d(\boldsymbol {p}, \partial \Omega ) & \text { if } \boldsymbol {p} \in \Omega \\ d(\boldsymbol {p}, \partial \Omega ) & \text { if } \boldsymbol {p} \notin \Omega \end {cases} \]

                                    convention. sign [ag-000J]

                                      Simply put, SDFs are the minimum possible distance from a point to an implicit surface defined by \(f(\boldsymbol {p})=0\).

                                      The convention adopted in this note is that the \(+\) and \(-\) signs indicate whether the point is outside or inside the surface, respectively, so that when a ray marches towards the surface from the outside, the distance is positive, becomes smaller when approaching the surface.

                                      [wiki-sdf] uses a convention with opposite signs.

                                      remark. SDFs in a Euclidean space [ag-0012]

                                        If \(X\) is also a normed space, i.e. for a point \(\boldsymbol {p} \in X\), its norm can be defined, e.g. in a Euclidean space \(\mathbb R^n\) where \(\boldsymbol {p}\) can be expressed by basis vectors as \((p_1, \ldots , p_n)\), then its norm \(\lVert \boldsymbol {p}\rVert \) can be defined as the Euclidean norm \[ \lVert \boldsymbol {p}\rVert _2:=\sqrt {p_1^2+\cdots +p_n^2} \] which is essentially the distance from the origin \(\boldsymbol {o}=(0, \ldots , 0)\) to the point \(\boldsymbol {p}\) \[ \lVert \boldsymbol {p}\rVert =d(\boldsymbol {p}, \boldsymbol {o})=\lVert \boldsymbol {p} - \boldsymbol {o}\rVert \] where \(d\) is the Euclidean distance function.

                                        In the following, we will be working with Euclidean space \(\mathbb R^n\), which is both a metric space and a normed space. Most of the time, we will focus on \(\mathbb R^3\) for visualization purposes.

                                        example. SDF of a sphere [ag-000L]

                                          The SDF of a sphere with radius \(r\) centered at the origin \(\boldsymbol {o}\) is \[ f(\boldsymbol {p})=\lVert \boldsymbol {p}\rVert -r \] as depicted below:

                                          figure. SDF for a sphere [ag-0017]

                                            The SDF above for a sphere translates to the following GLSL:

                                            float sdSphere(vec3 p, float r) { return length(p) - r; }

                                            example. SDFs of geometric primitives [ag-0011]

                                              SDFs of some geometric primitives in \(\mathbb R^3\), can be found in Appendix A: Distance to Natural Quadrics and Torus of [hart1996sphere].

                                              Many more can be found in Inigo Quilez's article Distance functions (written in GLSL), which also includes an example that renders them by ray-marching.

// INSTRUCTIONS:
//
// This shader implements basic distancefield raytracing of a regular grid on
// a 3D manifold given as the graph of a function f(x,y,z).
//
// Click and drag the mouse to look around. WASD for movement. You are moving
// through distorted space, so you might not move in a straight line, but
// instead move along the shortest paths in curved space.
// Press "R" to reset the view.
//
// WARNING: The space-bending and movement might be a bit nauseating. I tried to
// not make stuff move too fast, but wanted to give a short warning anyways.

// DISPLAY OPTIONS:
// Below you can find a few defines to control the look of the grid, background
// and general tracing
//
// FUNCTIONAL OPTIONS
// The actual function is defined in the common shader part under "Metric
// functions".  A few functions are predefined, but you can implement your own
// in "HessNum3 fCustom(in HessNum3 x, in HessNum3 y, in HessNum3 z, float
// globalTime)". Just comment in the one you want to see or comment all of them
// out to use the custom function. Additional information can be found there as
// well.
//
// Note: As calculating the metric from the function requires 1st and 2nd order
// derivatives and it would be cumbersome to calculate and implement them for
// each function, I use automatic differentiation, which is why you need to use
// the special types and operations defined in the automatic differentiation

                                                            A ray is a half-line that starts at a point and extends indefinitely in one direction.

                                                            In the context of ray marching etc., a ray could be a view ray, i.e. a ray that starts at the camera, extending through the screen, possibly intersecting with objects in the scene, or a secondary ray, i.e. a ray generated from the intersection of other rays, e.g. shadow rays, reflection rays, or refraction rays.

Theses solutions are also called the roots of the function \(F\).

                                                                remark. ray-casting/ray-tracing/ray-marching [ag-001E]

                                                                  The ray-casting/ray-tracing/ray-marching algorithms simply apply one of the multitude of root finding methods to solve the ray intersection equation.

                                                                  In general, ray-tracing typically uses a bunch of geometry (e.g. closed-form formulas) to calculate the intersection point, while ray-marching marches along the ray, and uses numerical methods to find the intersection point.

                                                                  The term ray-casting was introduced concurrently with ray-tracing in the 1980s, nowadays it could be used to mean the general ray intersection process, or specifically the ray-marching process with fixed step size.

                                                                  definition. ray marching [ag-001C]

                                                                    To render a scene, the Ray marching algorithm marches a ray from an origin towards a direction. At each step, the algorithm marches a short (possibly changing) distance and checks if a ray intersection occurs. This process continues until a stopping condition is met. The information obtained from the ray intersection is then used to determine the color of a pixel on the screen.

                                                                    example. ray-marching for different types of rays [ag-001D]

                                                                      A view ray has the origin at the camera, the direction is determined by the pixel on the screen that it passes through. It may intersect with a surface in the scene, and the information obtained from the intersection is used to determine the color of the corresponding pixel on the screen.

                                                                      A secondary ray typically originates from a point on a surface and its direction is determined by the type of ray. For instance, a shadow ray is cast towards a light source to determine if the point is in shadow, while a reflection ray and a refraction ray follow directions based on optics. The information obtained from secondary rays helps determine the color of the corresponding pixel that the view ray passes through.

                                                                      figure. ray marching [ag-001F]

                                                                          Formally, the root found by ray marching (naïve) is the limit point of the sequence defined by the recurrence equation \[t_{i+1} = t_i + \Delta t\] where \(t_0 = 0\) and \(\Delta t\) is the fixed step size.

                                                                          At each step, the ray marches to \(\boldsymbol {r}(t_i)\), which is usually denoted \(\boldsymbol {r}_i\).

                                                                                              Formally, the root found by sphere tracing is the limit point of the sequence defined by the recurrence equation \[t_{i+1} = t_i + \frac {|F(t_i)|}{\lambda } = t_i + \frac {f(\boldsymbol {r}(t_i))}{\lambda } \] where \(F\) is the ray intersection, and \(f\) is the SDF.

                                                                                              Usually \(\lambda = 1\), and \(F(t_i)\) stays positive until the stopping condition \(F(t_i) < \epsilon \) is met, so the above can be simplified to \[t_{i+1} = t_i + F(t_i) = t_i + f(\boldsymbol {r}(t_i)) \]

                                                                                                      Not all functions are Lipschitz, e.g. Harmonic Functions are not globally Lipschitz, many may have no local Lipschitz bound even within small neighborhoods, thus requires a new technique named Harnack tracing developed in [gillespie2024ray].
