Negatively curved, or hyperbolic, regions of space in an FRW universe are a realistic possibility. These regions might occur in voids where there is no dark matter with only dark energy present. Hyperbolic space is strange and various…
This is an expository article about groups generated by two isometries of the complex hyperbolic plane.
We extend the Billera-Ehrenborg-Readdy map between the intersection lattice and face lattice of a central hyperplane arrangement to affine and toric hyperplane arrangements. For arrangements on the torus, we also generalize Zaslavsky's…
We give solutions to several decision problems in word hyperbolic groups
We analyse the mathematical underpinnings of a mixed hyperbolic-elliptic form of the Einstein equations of motion in which the lapse function is determined by specified mean curvature and the shift is arbitrary. We also examine a new…
Following Santal\'{o}'s approach, we prove several characterizations of a disc among bodies of constant width, constant projections lengths, or constant section lengths on given families of geodesics.
The equality of the inertia and the gravitational mass of a body is explained in a very general manner. We also motivate this explanation by providing analogous examples
This work continues earlier investigations towards constructing a consistent new Quantum Field Theory with fundamental mass $M$, defining a hypothetical but universal scale in the region of ultrahigh energies. From a theoretical point of…
Hyperbolic geometry is developed in a purely algebraic fashion from first principles, without a prior development of differential geometry. The natural connection with the geometry of Lorentz, Einstein and Minkowski comes from a projective…
Hyperbolic hypergeometric integrals are defined as Barnes-type integrals of products of hyperbolic gamma functions. Their reduction to ordinary hypergeometric functions is well known. We study in detail their degeneration to complex…
Gr\"unbaum's inequality gives sharp bounds between the volume of a convex body and its part cut off by a hyperplane through the centroid of the body. We provide a generalization of this inequality for hyperplanes that do not necessarily…
We construct examples of inhomogeneous isoparametric real hypersurfaces in complex hyperbolic spaces.
We prove an inequality that extends to arbitrary measures the hyperplane inequality for volume of unconditional convex bodies originally observed by Bourgain.
Several attempts to construct theories of gravity with variable mass are considered. The theoretical impacts of allowing the rest mass to vary with respect to time or an appropriate curve parameter are examined in the framework of Newtonian…
We investigate weighted floating bodies of polytopes. We show that the weighted volume depends on the complete flags of the polytope. This connection is obtained by introducing flag simplices, which translate between the metric and…
The object of study of this article is compact surfaces in the three-dimensional hyperbolic space with a positive-definite second fundamental form. It is shown that several conditions on the Gaussian curvature of the second fundamental form…
We study the relationship between two concepts: cut limits and hyperbolic extensions.
In this paper, we introduce a new generalization of Pascal's triangle. The new object is called the hyperbolic Pascal triangle since the mathematical background goes back to regular mosaics on the hyperbolic plane. We describe precisely the…
We discuss the most elementary properties of the hyperbolic trigonometry and show how they can be exploited to get a simple, albeit interesting, geometrical interpretation of the special relativity. It yields indeed a straightforword…
The symmedian point of a triangle enjoys several geometric and optimality properties, which also serve to define it. We develop a new dynamical coordinatization of the symmedian, which naturally generalizes to other ideal hyperbolic…
