(Semi-)Invariant Curves from Centers of Triangle Families

We study curves obtained by tracing triangle centers within special families of triangles, focusing on centers and families that yield (semi-)invariant triangle curves, meaning that varying the initial triangle changes the loci only by an affine transformation. We identify four two-parameter families of triangle centers that are semi-invariant and determine which are invariant, in the sense that the resulting curves for different initial triangles are related by a similarity transformation. We further observe that these centers, when combined with the aliquot triangle family, yield sheared Maclaurin trisectrices, whereas the nedian triangle family yields Limaçon trisectrices.
