Mexican hat

Mexican hat names several things sharing a distinctive shape: a wide brim curving up around a raised center.
The sombrero worn in Mexico is the prototype.
A Mexican hat is also a wildflower (*Ratibida columnifera*) whose drooping petals surround a tall central cone.
In mathematics and signal processing, the Mexican hat wavelet describes a function whose graph resembles this silhouette.
