I have an ellipse with semimajor axis $A$ and semiminor axis $B$. I would like to pick $N$ points along the circumference of the ellipse such that the Euclidean distance between any two nearest-neighbor points, $d$, is fixed. How would I generate the coordinates for these points? For what range of $A$ and $B$ is this possible?
As a clarification, all nearest-neighbor pairs should be of fixed distance $d$. If one populates the ellipse by sequentially adding nearest neighbors in, say, a clockwise fashion, the first and last point added should have a final distance $d$.
