We consider a 3-dimensional Riemannian manifold with additional structure q. We find a condition that the affine structure q is parallel with respect to the Riamannian connection.We prove the sectional curvatures of three 2-sections formed…
Given a sequence of oriented links L^1,L^2,L^3,... each of which has a distinguished, unknotted component, there is a decomposition of the 3-sphere naturally associated to it, which is constructed as the components of the intersection of an…
We study geodesically complete and locally compact Hadamard spaces X whose Tits boundary is a connected irreducible spherical building. We show that X is symmetric iff complete geodesics in X do not branch and a Euclidean building…
Polygon spaces have been studied extensively, and yet missing from the literature is a simple property that every polygon has: dimension. This is distinct (possibly) from the dimension of the ambient space in which the polygon lives. A…
We investigate the lines tangent to four triangles in R^3. By a construction, there can be as many as 62 tangents. We show that there are at most 162 connected components of tangents, and at most 156 if the triangles are disjoint. In…
A closed subscheme of codimension two $T \subset P^2$ is a quasi complete intersection (q.c.i.) of type $(a,b,c)$ if there exists a surjective morphism $\mathcal{O} (-a) \oplus \mathcal{O} (-b) \oplus \mathcal{O} (-c) \to \mathcal{I} _T$.…
For each $N\ge C_dt^d$ we prove the existence of a well separated spherical $t$-design in the sphere $S^d$ consisting of $N$ points, where $C_d$ is a constant depending only on $d$.
It was found that stable few-body spin-structures, pairs and triplexes, may exist as basic constituents in small spin-3 condensates, and they will play the role as building blocks when the parameters of interaction are appropriate. Specific…
The medial axis of a smoothly embedded surface in $\mathbb{R}^3$ consists of all points for which the Euclidean distance function on the surface has at least two minima. We generalize this notion to the mid-sphere axis, which consists of…
We address 2D floorplan reconstruction from 3D scans. Existing approaches typically employ heuristically designed multi-stage pipelines. Instead, we formulate floorplan reconstruction as a single-stage structured prediction task: find a…
For one-dimensional systems of conservation laws admitting two additional conservation laws we assign a ruled surface of codimension two in projective space. We call two such systems dual if the corresponding ruled surfaces are dual. We…
In this paper we consider a family of nested t-structures given by silting objects and construct a silting object corresponding to the intersection of aisles of these t-structures as a homotopy colimit. The dual construction for the…
We show that the following algorithmic problem is decidable: given a $2$-dimensional simplicial complex, can it be embedded (topologically, or equivalently, piecewise linearly) in $\mathbf{R}^3$? By a known reduction, it suffices to decide…
We investigate the geometry in a real Euclidean building X of type A2 of some simple configurations in the associated projective plane at infinity P, seen as ideal configurations in X, and relate it with the projective invariants (from the…
Edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by congruent quadrilaterals are completely classified in a series of three papers. This second one applies the powerful tool of trigonometric Diophantine equations to classify the case of…
We develop the basic and new tools for classifying non-side-to-side tilings of the sphere by congruent triangles. Then we prove that, if the triangle has any irrational angle in degree, such tilings are: a sequence of 1-parameter families…
We consider domino tilings of three-dimensional cubiculated manifolds with or without boundary, including subsets of Euclidean space and three-dimensional tori. In particular, we are interested in the connected components of the space of…
An automorphism of a spherical building is called \textit{domestic} if it maps no chamber onto an opposite chamber. This paper forms a significant part of a large project classifying domestic automorphisms of spherical buildings of…
We study the dissection of a square into congruent convex polygons. Yuan \emph{et al.} [Dissecting the square into five congruent parts, Discrete Math. \textbf{339} (2016) 288-298] asked whether, if the number of tiles is a prime number…
Suppose that the surfaces K0 and Kr are the boundaries of two convex, complete, connected C^2 bodies in R^3. Assume further that the (Euclidean) distance between any point x in Kr and K0 is always r (r > 0). For x in Kr, let {\Pi}(x) denote…
