Author of this article created for the first time the method for finding solutions of the Minkowski problem for closed surfaces in Riemannian space.
Quantitative estimates related to the classical Borsuk problem of splitting set in Euclidean space into subsets of smaller diameter are considered. For a given $k$ there is a minimal diameter of subsets at which there exists a covering with…
We study Dirichlet-type problems for the simplest third-order linear dispersive PDE, often referred to as the Airy equation. Such problems have not been extensively studied, perhaps due to the complexity of the spectral structure of the…
The Geometry of planar domain walls is studied. It is argued that the planar walls indeed have plane symmetry. In the Minkowski coordinates the walls are mapped into revolution paraboloids.
Erd\H{o}s first introduced the idea of covering systems in 1950. Since then, much of the work in this area has concentrated on identifying covering systems that meet specific conditions on their moduli. Among the central open problems in…
The traditional study of plane and space algebraic curves by looking at their tangent vectors, curvatures and torsions provides geometric, but unfortunately not sufficient information about individual curves in order to be able to…
The aim of this paper is to establish a theory of Galerkin approximations to the space of convex and compact subsets of $\R^d$ with favorable properties, both from a theoretical and from a computational perspective. These Galerkin spaces…
Toric quasifolds are highly singular spaces that were first introduced in order to address, from the symplectic viewpoint, the longstanding open problem of extending the classical constructions of toric geometry to those simple convex…
Distance Geometry is based on the inverse problem that asks to find the positions of points, in a Euclidean space of given dimension, that are compatible with a given set of distances. We briefly introduce the field, and discuss some open…
In this paper we discuss about properties of lattices and its application in theoretical and algorithmic number theory. This result of Minkowski regarding the lattices initiated the subject of Geometry of Numbers, which uses geometry to…
We consider an approach to Brans-Dicke theory of gravity in which the scalar field has a geometrical nature. By postulating the Palatini variation, we find out that the role played by the scalar field consists in turning the space-time…
A fundamental question in graph theory is to establish conditions that ensure a graph contains certain spanning subgraphs. Two well-known examples are Tutte's theorem on perfect matchings and Dirac's theorem on Hamilton cycles.…
We propose a notion of discrete elastic and area-constrained elastic curves in 2-dimensional space forms. Our definition extends the well-known discrete Euclidean curvature equation to space forms and reflects various geometric properties…
This is a problem list in the theory of foliations and laminations of 3-manifolds. The focus is on the relationship of foliations and laminations with other aspects of 3-manifold topology, especially with the Thurston theory of geometric…
Chv\'{a}tal and Klincsek (1980) gave an $O(n^3)$-time algorithm for the problem of finding a maximum-cardinality convex subset of an arbitrary given set $P$ of $n$ points in the plane. This paper examines a generalization of the problem,…
A covering problem posed by Henri Lebesgue in 1914 seeks to find the convex shape of smallest area that contains a subset congruent to any point set of unit diameter in the Euclidean plane. Methods used previously to construct such a…
In algebraic geometry specialisations and valuations play and important role. In this paper we start investigating analogous structures for Zariski structures. Specifically, we look into the existence and uniqueness properties of extensions…
In this paper, we extend the method developed in [17, 18] to curves in the Minkowski plane. The method proposes a way to study deformations of plane curves taking into consideration their geometry as well as their singularities. We deal in…
It is known since the works of Zariski in early 40ies that desingularization of varieties along valuations (called local uniformization of valuations) can be considered as the local part of the desingularization problem. It is still an open…
Since the end of the 19th century, and after the works of F. Klein and H. Poincar\'e, it is well known that models of elliptic geometry and hyperbolic geometry can be given using projective geometry, and that Euclidean geometry can be seen…
