Plotting an identity across a surface in Tikz

I want to draw an identity across a surface plot. This identity should start at the bottom left, and end at the top right (from tip to tip). With the axis I've given (see below), the v_1=2(v_2-20). This becomes y=2(x-20) given the way the axes are defined. I've tried plotting this in various ways, but it does not seem to work on top of the 3d surface.



beginfigure[h]
begintikzpicture[scale=2]
beginaxis[
 title=secret research, 
 xlabel=$v_2$, ylabel=$v_1$,
 small,
 x dir=reverse
]
addplot3[
 surf,
 domain=0:20,
 domain y=0:10,
] 
 ((y^2/(0.5*(x+y))/20);
endaxis
endtikzpicture

  • I am sorry, I do not understand the question. Could you please make more explicit what you mean? What does "This becomes y=2(x-20) given the way the axes are defined. " mean? Do you just want to plot (x,2*(x-20))? But this is a 3d plot.

  • @marmot Sorry for it being unclear. I would like to plot the identity that maps across the surface diagonally from v_2=20 to v_1=10. This would be a single function, not a surface, as it is defined at one particular intersection of the v_2 and v_1 axes.

  • You want a one-dimensional plot, i.e a line, then? At which z-value should this line be? Should it really be v_1=2(v_2-20), i.e. at v_1=0 v_2 will be -40, ie. far off from the surface?

  • @marmot Yes one-dimensional, at the z-value of the surface.

    OK, I added something. Notice that I will be out of touch for ca. 1h, but be happy to adjust things afterwards, in case there is something to adjust and no one else did it.

  • That's exactly what I want, but from the left-most point at (v_1=0,v_2=20,z=0) to the rightmost (v_1=10,v_2=0, z approx 1). Will change it myself :)

  • @pafnuti I add that one. There is one potential piftfall: you need to use mesh since otherwise there will be a closed cycle.
