We introduce the triangulant of two matrices, and relate it to the existence of orthogonal eigenvectors. We also use it for a new characterization of mutually unbiased bases. Generalizing the notion, we introduce higher order triangulants…
Lines and circles pose significant scalability challenges in synthetic geometry. A line with $n$ points implies ${n \choose 3}$ collinearity atoms, or alternatively, when lines are represented as functions, equality among ${n \choose 2}$…
A set of points in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is acute, if any three points from this set form an acute triangle. In this note we construct an acute set in $\mathbb{R}^d$ of size at least $1.618^d$. Also, we present a simple example of an acute set of…
In this paper, we generalize the notions of centroids and barycenters to the broad class of information-theoretic distortion measures called Bregman divergences. Bregman divergences are versatile, and unify quadratic geometric distances…
In this article we prove some theorems related to the triplets of triangles, homological two by two. These theorems will be used later to build triplets of triangles two by two tri-homological.
We construct the smooth, compact moduli space of similarity classes of labeled, oriented triangles. The space, denoted $\mathfrak D$, is a connected sum of three projective planes, and projects via blowdown to two shape spaces that have…
We define transversal tropical triangles (affine and projective) and characterize them via six inequalities to be satisfied by the coordinates of the vertices. We prove that the vertices of a transversal tropical triangle are tropically…
The first isodynamic point of a triangle is one of many notable points associated with a triangle. It is named X(15) in the Encyclopedia of Triangle Centers. This paper surveys known results about this point and gives additional properties…
The classic clustering coefficient and the lately proposed closure coefficient quantify the formation of triangles from two different perspectives, with the focal node at the centre or at the end in an open triad respectively. As many…
Two cycles are {\em adjacent} if they have an edge in common. Suppose that $G$ is a planar graph, for any two adjacent cycles $C_{1}$ and $C_{2}$, we have $|C_{1}| + |C_{2}| \geq 11$, in particular, when $|C_{1}| = 5$, $|C_{2}| \geq 7$. We…
We study pairs of mutually orthogonal normal matrices with respect to tropical multiplication. Minimal orthogonal pairs are characterized. The diameter and girth of three graphs arising from the orthogonality equivalence relation are…
A set of rational points on a curve is said to be in geometric progression if either the abscissae or the ordinates of the points are in geometric progression. Examples of three points in geometric progression on a circle are already known.…
A knot (or link) diagram is said to be everywhere equivalent if all the diagrams obtained by switching one crossing represent the same knot (or link). We classify such diagrams of a closed 3-braid.
A pseudocircle is a simple closed curve on the sphere or in the plane. The study of arrangements of pseudocircles was initiated by Gr\"unbaum, who defined them as collections of simple closed curves that pairwise intersect in exactly two…
Transversal structures (also known as regular edge labelings) are combinatorial structures defined over 4-connected plane triangulations with quadrangular outer-face. They have been intensively studied and used for many applications…
A triangle $T'$ is $\varepsilon$-similar to another triangle $T$ if their angles pairwise differ by at most $\varepsilon$. Given a triangle $T$, $\varepsilon>0$ and $n\in\mathbb{N}$, B\'ar\'any and F\"uredi asked to determine the maximum…
Magic squares are well-known arrangements of integers with common row, column, and diagonal sums. Various other magic shapes have been proposed, but triangles have been somewhat overlooked. We introduce certain triangular arrangements of…
In this article we'll emphasize on two triangles and provide a vectorial proof of the fact that these triangles have the same orthocenter. This proof will further allow us to develop a vectorial proof of the Stevanovic's theorem relative to…
We define a triangle design as a partition of the set of lines of a projective space into triangles, where a triangle consists of three pairwise intersecting lines with no common point. A triangle design is balanced if all points are…
In this paper we prove that if $P_1, P_2$ are isogonal points in the triangle $ABC$, and if $A_1B_1C_1$ and $A_2B_2C_2$ are their corresponding pedal triangles such that the triangles $ABC$ and $A_1B_1C_1$ are homological (the lines $AA_1,…
