Feb 28, 2020 at 9:48 comment added Manfred Weis @Wojowu agreed; I didn't look careful enough. Regarding what I need the curves for: I have an idea for generating a smooth function for e.g. visualising all Euclidean distances between pairs of curve points and I want to put that idea to test with non-trivial examples; that idea would also work in higher dimensions.
Feb 28, 2020 at 8:03 comment added Wojowu I don't see where you need any additional restrictions. For $f$ in values in $(0,\infty)$ as I wrote you have no sign changes and no self intersections.

Feb 27, 2020 at 17:25 comment added Wojowu They would indeed be starshaped, but not knowing exactly what it is that you want to do with them, I don't know how good of a suggestion that was (hence I posted it as a comment and not as an answer). I think it should be noted that a function taking values in $(0,\infty)$ cannot have any sign changes :)

Feb 27, 2020 at 13:01 comment added Manfred Weis @Wojowu those functions would be starshaped and it should be noted that $f$ shouldn't have sign changes in $(0,\pi)$

Feb 27, 2020 at 12:40 comment added Wojowu You can take any continuous (or as smooth as you desire) function $f:[0,2\pi]\to(0,\infty)$ with equal values at the end points and plot it in polar coordinates.
