One distinguishes between "true" CP violating triple product (TP) asymmetries which require no strong phases and "fake" asymmetries which are due to strong phases but require no CP violation. So far a single true TP asymmetry has been…

We discuss a version of Pythagoras theorem in noncommutative geometry. Usual Pythagoras theorem can be formulated in terms of Connes' distance, between pure states, in the product of commutative spectral triples. We investigate the…

We discover suprising connections between three seemingly different problems: finding right triangles with rational sides in a non-Euclidean geometry, finding three integers such that the difference of the squares of any two is a square,…

Let $P$ be a finite point set in the plane. A \emph{$c$-ordinary triangle} in $P$ is a subset of $P$ consisting of three non-collinear points such that each of the three lines determined by the three points contains at most $c$ points of…

Recent interest in noncircular trigonometric proofs has underscored the need for alternative methodologies. Jackson and Johnson's 2024 study addresses a longstanding gap in the foundations of trigonometric proofs. Inspired by the work of…

In this paper we introduce a formula that parameterises the Pythagorean triples as elements of two series. With respect to the standard Euclidean formula, this parameterisation does not generate the Pythagorean triples where the elements of…

A graph $G$ is Pfaffian if it has an orientation such that each central cycle $C$ (i.e. $C$ is even and $G-V(C)$ has a perfect matching) has an odd number of edges directed in either direction of the cycle. The number of perfect matchings…

In the decay chain B(d) --> Psi + K --> Psi + (pi l nu), neutral K mixing follows on the heels of neutral B mixing. This "cascade mixing" leads to an interference which probes cos(2*beta), where beta is one of the three CP-violating phase…

We study possible effects of new physics in CP asymmetries in two-body $B_s$ decays in left-right models with spontaneous CP violation. Considering the contributions of new CP phases to the $B_s$ mixing as well as to the penguin dominated…

Given an Orthogonal-Buekenhout-Metz unital $U_{\alpha,\beta}$, embedded in $PG(2,q^2)$, and a point $P\notin U_{\alpha,\beta}$, we study the set of feet, $\tau_{P}(U_{\alpha,\beta})$, of $P$ in $U_{\alpha,\beta}$. We characterize…

Let alpha be an arbitrary angle in a random spherical triangle Delta and a be the side opposite alpha. (The sphere has radius 1; vertices of Delta are independent and uniform.) If some other side is constrained to be pi/2, then…

Let ${\mathcal K}$ denote a smooth conic in the complex projective plane. Pascal's theorem says that, given six points $A,B,C,D,E,F$ on ${\mathcal K}$, the three intersection points $AE \cap BF, AD \cap CF, BD \cap CE$ are collinear. This…

We propose a new way for determining the CP violation angle $\gamma$ without any hadronic uncertainty. The suggested method is to use the two triangles formed by the decay amplitudes of $B^\pm\to (D^0,\bar D^0,D_{CP}^0)…

Some relations among Pythagorean triples are established. The main tool is a fundamental characterization of the Pythagorean triples through a chatetus which allows to determine relationships with Pythagorean triples having the same…

This paper extends the Pythagorean Theorem to positive and negative real exponents to take the form a^n + b^n = c^n and makes use of the definition gamma = b/a >= 1. For the case of n in the set of positive real numbers, n greater than or…

Given two distinct point sets $P$ and $Q$ in the plane, we say that $Q$ \emph{blocks} $P$ if no two points of $P$ are adjacent in any Delaunay triangulation of $P\cup Q$. Aichholzer et al. (2013) showed that any set $P$ of $n$ points in…

We consider the following configuration. Let $ABCD$ be a cyclic quadrilateral with circumcenter $O$, and for each vertex $X$, let $H_X$ be the orthocenter of the triangle formed by the other three. Then…

Pythagoras' theorem, the area of a triangle as one half the base times the height, and Heron's formula are amongst the most important and useful results of ancient Greek geometry. Here we look at all three in a new and improved light, using…

At the first PPPP workshop, I gave a review talk on physics of B and CP-phases. In my talk, I explained DRG method and our extension to extract CP angles $\alpha$ and $\gamma$ from measurements of the decay rates of $B_{d,s}^0 \to \pi\pi,…

This paper studies equable parallelograms whose vertices lie on the integer lattice. Using Rosenberger's Theorem on generalised Markov equations, we show that the g.c.d. of the side lengths of such parallelograms can only be 3, 4 or 5, and…
