Circumscribed Circles in Integer Geometry

Abstract

Integer geometry on a plane deals with objects whose vertices are points in Z2\mathbb Z^2. The congruence relation is provided by all affine transformations preserving the lattice Z2\mathbb Z^2. In this paper we study circumscribed circles in integer geometry. We introduce the notions of integer and rational circumscribed circles of integer sets. We determine the conditions for a finite integer set to admit an integer circumscribed circle and describe the spectra of radii for integer and rational circumscribed circles.
