A systematic study of closed classical orbits of the hydrogen atom in crossed electric and magnetic fields is presented. We develop a local bifurcation theory for closed orbits which is analogous to the well-known bifurcation theory for…
The ability of a circadian system to entrain to the 24-hour light-dark cycle is one of its most important properties. A new tool, called the entrainment map, was recently introduced to study this process for a single oscillator. Here we…
In 2009 Chmutov introduced the idea of partial duality for embeddings of graphs in surfaces. We discuss some alternative descriptions of partial duality, which demonstrate the symmetry between vertices and faces. One is in terms of band…
This is an investigation into a classification of embeddings of a surface in Euclidean $3$-space. Specifically, we consider $\mathbb{R}^3$ as having the product structure $\mathbb{R}^2 \times \mathbb{R}$ and let $\pi:\mathbb{R}^2 \times…
An arc in $\Z^2_n$ is defined to be a set of points no three of which are collinear. We describe some properties of arcs and determine the maximum size of arcs for some small $n$.
We compute the number of equivalence classes of nonperiodic covering cycles of given length in a non oriented connected graph. A covering cycle is a closed path that traverses each edge of the graph at least once. A special case is the…
We determine the symmetrized topological complexity of the circle, using primarily just general topology.
In this paper, we provide a characterization of uniquely representable two-directional orthogonal ray graphs, which are defined as the intersection graphs of rightward and downward rays. The collection of these rays is called a…
This article is a gentle introduction to the mathematical area known as circle packing, the study of the kinds of patterns that can be formed by configurations of non-overlapping circles. The first half of the article is an exposition of…
In this paper we discuss the number of regions in a unit circle after drawing $n$ i.i.d. random chords in the circle according to a particular family of distribution. We find that as $n$ goes to infinity, the distribution of the number of…
We show that the skip-gram embedding of any word can be decomposed into two subvectors which roughly correspond to semantic and syntactic roles of the word.
We derive algebraic equations on the coefficients of the implicit equation to characterize all Dupin cyclides passing through a fixed circle. The results are applied to solve the basic problems in CAGD about blending of Dupin cyclides along…
The coupled motion is investigated for a mechanical system consisting of water and a body freely floating in it. Water occupies either a half-space or a layer of constant depth into which an infinitely long surface-piercing cylinder is…
By using of a special reduction way of density matrices, in this Letter we find the entanglement between two bunches of particles, its measure can be represented by the entanglement of formation.
We characterise the respective semigroups of mappings that preserve, or that preserve or reverse orientation of a finite cycle, in terms of their actions on oriented triples and oriented quadruples. This leads to a proof that the latter…
A book embedding of a complete graph is a spatial embedding whose planar projection has the vertices located along a circle, consecutive vertices are connected by arcs of the circle, and the projections of the remaining "interior" edges in…
Graph partitioning, or the dividing of a graph into two or more parts based on certain conditions, arises naturally throughout discrete mathematics, and problems of this kind have been studied extensively. In the 1990s, Ando conjectured…
We study arrangements of geodesic arcs on a sphere, where all arcs are internally disjoint and each arc has its endpoints located within the interior of other arcs. We establish fundamental results concerning the minimum number of arcs in…
We investigate the topology of a double cover of a complex affine plane branching along a nodal real line arrangement. We define certain topological 2-cycles in the double plane using the real structure of the arrangement, and calculate…
We consider the problem of counting and of listing topologically inequivalent "planar" {4-valent} maps with a single component and a given number n of vertices. This enables us to count and to tabulate immersions of a circle in a sphere…
