Green line
From Encyclopedia of Mathematics
An orthogonal trajectory of a family of level surfaces 
, 
, where 
is the Green function (of the Dirichlet problem for the Laplace equation) for a domain 
in a Euclidean space 
, 
, with a given pole 
. In other words, Green lines are integral curves in the gradient field 
. Generalizations also exist [2].
