loci
Points satisfying conditions
Loci is the plural of locus, a point or place where something is situated or occurs.
In genetics, loci are specific positions on chromosomes where genes are located.
In geometry, a locus is a set of points satisfying a condition; loci are multiple such sets.
The phrase method of loci refers to a memory technique using imagined locations.
