The Clifford torus is a mathematical object that exists in higher dimensions, specifically in four-dimensional space ($R^4$). It can be understood as a special kind of surface or manifold that has interesting geometrical and topological properties. The Clifford torus is the subset of this space where each point on the torus lies on a unit circle in each of these two planes.


Applications

Clifford tori appear in the study of minimal surfaces, string theory, and in certain aspects of theoretical physics where higher-dimensional spaces are considered.
