Chasles' Quadrilateral Theorem is a classical statement about four tangents to a conic that simultaneously circumscribe a circle. In its various formulations, it relates the concurrence of certain lines to the existence of confocal conics…
This paper presents an additional class of regular polyhedra--envelope polyhedra--made of regular polygons, where the arrangement of polygons (creating a single surface) around each vertex is identical; but dihedral angles between faces…
We point out a link between two surfaces which have appeared recently in the literature: the surface of cuboids and the Schoen surface. Both surfaces give rise to a surface with q=4, whose canonical map is 2-to-1 onto an intersection of 4…
We give a complete investigation of Morley's trisector theorem. If the intersections of the half lines starting from the adjacent vertices of a triangle form an equilateral triangle for an arbitrary triangle, then the half lines are the…
Let $q\ge 1$ be an integer. Given $M$ samples of a smooth function of $q$ variables, $2\pi$--periodic in each variable, we consider the problem of constructing a $q$--variate trigonometric polynomial of spherical degree $\O(M^{1/q})$ which…
In this article, we determine two point distortion theorem and sharp coefficient estimates for the families of close-to-convex harmonic mappings whose analytic part is a convex function of order $\alpha$. By making use of these results, we…
The structure of integral manifolds in the Kovalevskaya problem of the motion of a heavy rigid body about a fixed point is considered. An analytic description of a bifurcation set is obtained, and bifurcation diagrams are constructed. The…
We solve the following problem: given a polynomial of order $n$ and the corresponding $B\'ezier$ tensor product patches over an unstructured regular quadrilateral mesh of any valence, find a solution to the $G^{1}1$ or $C^{1}1$…
The paper introduces cycles cross ratio, which extends the classic cross ratio of four points to various settings: conformal geometry, Lie spheres geometry, etc. Just like its classic counterpart cycles cross ratio is a measure of…
We present a simplified proof of a forty-year-old result concerning the tiling of the plane with equilateral convex polygons. Our approach is based on a theorem by M. Rao, who used an exhaustive computer search to confirm the completeness…
Here is a square problem: in a unit square, is there a point with four rational distances to the vertices? A probability argument suggests a negative answer. This paper proves several special cases of the square problem: if the point sits…
In this paper, we deal with the question; under what conditions the points $P_i(xi,yi)$ $(i = 1,\cdots, n)$ form a convex polygon provided $x_1 < \cdots < x_n$ holds. One of the main findings of the paper can be stated as follows: "Let…
We study the interior and exterior moduli of polygonal quadrilaterals. The main result is a formula for a conformal mapping of the upper half plane onto the exterior of a convex polygonal quadrilateral. We prove this by a careful analysis…
We introduce the notion of tame $\rho$-quaternionic manifold that permits the construction of a finite family of $\rho$-connections, significant for the geometry involved. This provides, for example, the following: (1) a new simple global…
The change of conformal moduli of polygonal quadrilaterals under some geometric transformations is studied. We consider the motion of one vertex when the other vertices remain fixed, the rotation of sides, polarization, symmetrization, and…
Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in general position on the plane. A set of closed convex polygons with vertices in $P$, and with pairwise disjoint interiors is called a convex decomposition of $P$ if their union is the convex hull of $P$,…
We consider a problem in computational origami. Given a piece of paper as a convex polygon $P$ and a point $f$ located within, fold every point on a boundary of $P$ to $f$ and compute a region that is safe from folding, i.e., the region…
In the polytope membership problem, a convex polytope $K$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is given, and the objective is to preprocess $K$ into a data structure so that, given any query point $q \in \mathbb{R}^d$, it is possible to determine efficiently…
A spherical quadrilateral is a bordered surface homeomorphic to a closed disk, with four distinguished boundary points called corners, equipped with a Riemannian metric of constant curvature 1, except at the corners, and such that the…
We study rationality constructions for smooth complete intersections of two quadrics over nonclosed fields. Over the real numbers, we establish a criterion for rationality in dimension four.
