Motivated by a question of R.\ Nandakumar, we show that the Euclidean plane can be dissected into mutually incongruent convex pentagons of the same area and the same perimeter.
In this paper several examples of gaps (lacunes) between dimensions of maximal and submaximal symmetric models are considered, which include investigation of number of independent linear and quadratic integrals of metrics and counting the…
Tropical Geometry and Mathematical Morphology share the same max-plus and min-plus semiring arithmetic and matrix algebra. In this chapter we summarize some of their main ideas and common (geometric and algebraic) structure, generalize and…
We say that a tiling separates discs of a packing in the Euclidean plane, if each tile contains exactly one member of the packing. It is a known elementary geometric problem to show that for each locally finite packing of circular discs,…
Given two points in the plane, and a set of "obstacles" given as curves through the plane with assigned weights, we consider the point-separation problem, which asks for the minimum-weight subset of the obstacles separating the two points.…
This paper points out the usefulness of the concept of derivation along a map in many problems in Geometry and Physics. In particular it will be shown that this approach allows us to translate the usual concepts arising in Geometrical…
The aim of this paper is to investigate an attempt to build a binary classification algorithm using principles of geometry such as vectors, planes, and vector algebra. The basic idea behind the proposed algorithm is that a hyperplane can be…
For a pair of points in a smooth locally convex surface in 3-space, its mid-plane is the plane containing its mid-point and the intersection line of the corresponding pair of tangent planes. In this paper we show that the limit of…
Ballico proved that a smooth projective variety $X$ of degree $d$ over a finite field of $q$ elements admits a smooth hyperplane section if $q\geq d(d-1)^{\dim X}$. In this paper, we refine this criterion for higher codimensional linear…
In this paper, we study relationships between symmetric and non-symmetric separation of (not necessarily convex) cones by using separating cones of Bishop-Phelps type in real normed spaces. Besides extending some known results for the…
We show that for any two convex curves $C_1$ and $C_2$ in $\mathbb R^d$ parametrized by $[0,1]$ with opposite orientations, there exists a hyperplane $H$ with the following property: For any $t\in [0,1]$ the points $C_1(t)$ and $C_2(t)$ are…
An important problem in quaternionic hyperbolic geometry is to classify ordered $m$-tuples of pairwise distinct points in the closure of quaternionic hyperbolic n-space, $\overline{{\bf H}_\bh^n}$, up to congruence in the holomorphic…
Modular and quasimodular solutions of specific second order differential equation in the upper-half plane which originates from a study of supersingular j-invariants are given explicitly. A characterization of the differential equation is…
A result of Beauville states that with a few positive characterstic exceptions, the smooth hyperplane sections of hypersurfaces of degree $d>2$ in projective space are not all isomorphic. We address the question of whether these sections…
We prove that in any strictly convex symmetric cone $\Omega$ there exists a non empty locus where the WDVV equation is satisfied (i.e. there exists a hyperplane being a Frobenius manifold). This result holds over any real division algebra…
Convex semilattices are algebras that are at the same time a convex algebra and a semilattice, together with a distributivity axiom. These algebras have attracted some attention in the last years as suitable algebras for probability and…
We study maximal sublattices of finite semidistributive lattices via their complements. We focus on the conjecture that such complements are always intervals, which is known to be true for bounded lattices. Since the class of…
Two planar sets are circularly separable if there exists a circle enclosing one of the sets and whose open interior disk does not intersect the other set. This paper studies two problems related to circular separability. A linear-time…
Hopf algebra structures on the extended q-superplane and its differential algebra are defined. An algebra of forms which are obtained from the generators of the extended q-superplane is introduced and its Hopf algebra structure is given
Building sets were introduced in the study of wonderful compactifications of hyperplane arrangement complements and were later generalized to finite meet-semilattices. Convex geometries, the duals of antimatroids, offer a robust…
