Dighe, Gronau and Rosner have shown that, by assuming SU(3) flavor symmetry and first-order SU(3) breaking, it is possible to extract the CP angles \alpha and \gamma from measurements of the decay rates of B_d^0(t) --> \pi^+\pi^-, B_d^0 -->…
Traditionally, the P3P problem is solved by firstly transforming its 3 quadratic equations into a quartic one, then by locating the roots of the resulting quartic equation and verifying whether a root does really correspond to a true…
Let $M$ be either the 2-sphere $\SS^2 \subset\RR^3$ or the hyperbolic plane $\HH^2 \subset \RR^3$. If $\Delta(abc)$ is a geodesic triangle on $M$ with corners at $a,b,c\in M$, we denote by $\alpha, \beta, \gamma\in M$ the midpoints of their…
We introduce the new class of planar Pythagorean-Hodograph (PH) B-Spline curves. They can be seen as a generalization of the well-known class of planar Pythagorean-Hodograph (PH) B\'ezier curves, presented by R. Farouki and T. Sakkalis in…
In this paper, a theorem about similar triangles is proved. It shows that two small and four large triangles similar to the original triangle can appear if we choose well among several intersections of the perpendicular bisectors of the…
In this paper we will do the following: (1) show how to geometrically define multiplication, using only basic plane geometry, independently of area and any notion of similar triangles; (2) prove all the properties of multiplication using…
This paper introduces path triangulation of points in a bounded, simply connected surface region, replacing ordinary triangles in a Delaunay triangulation with path triangles from homotopy theory. A {\bf path triangle} has a border that is…
By using pairs of nontrivial rational solutions of congruent number equation $$ C_N:\;\;y^2=x^3-N^2x, $$ constructed are pairs of rational right (Pythagorean) triangles with one common side and the other sides equal to the sum and…
While indirect & direct CP violations (CPV) had been established in the decays of strange & beauty mesons, none have been done for baryons. There are different "roads" for finding CP asymmetries in the decays of strange baryons; they are…
We introduce the Primary Gasing Triangle, a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 1 unit, to define the primary trigonometric functions: sine and cosine. This triangle serves as the foundational element in a new approach to learning…
Richard Guy asked the following question: can we find a triangle with rational sides, medians, and area? Such a triangle is called a \emph{perfect triangle} and no example has been found to date. It is widely believed that such a triangle…
The family of Euclidean triangles having some fixed perimeter and area can be identified with a subset of points on a nonsingular cubic plane curve, i.e., an elliptic curve; furthermore, if the perimeter and the square of the area are…
A BC-tree (block-cutpoint-tree) is a tree (with at least two vertices) where the distance between any two leaves is even. Motivated from the study of the "core" of a graph, BC-trees provide an interesting class of trees. We consider…
We introduce a novel class of self-mappings on metric spaces, called \textbf{PA-contractions} (Path-Averaged Contractions), defined by an averaging condition over iterated distances. We prove that every continuous PA-contraction on a…
Pascal's Theorem gives a synthetic geometric condition for six points $a,\ldots,f$ in $\mathbb{P}^2$ to lie on a conic. Namely, that the intersection points $\overline{ab}\cap\overline{de}$, $\overline{af}\cap\overline{dc}$,…
It is known that a point in three-dimensional Euclidean space whose coordinates are equal to the cosines of the angles $\angle BDC, \angle ADC, \angle ADB$, where the point $D$ lies in the plane of a given triangle $ABC$, lies on the…
We discuss $\beta$-deformed geometries on two types of $T^3$'s where the direction along the third coordinate is not orthogonal to the direction along the second coordinate or the direction along the first coordinate. We show that the…
We prove that over a Poncelet triangle family interscribed between two nested ellipses $\mathcal{E},\mathcal{E}_c$, (i) the locus of the orthocenter is not only a conic, but it is axis-aligned and homothetic to a $90^o$-rotated copy of…
We study $N$-point rational distance sets ($\textrm{RDS}(N)$) on the parabola $y=x^2$. Previous approaches to the problem include efforts made using elliptic curves and diophantine chains, with successful analysis for $N\leq 4$. We extend…
It is demonstrated that the set of 40 states of a spin-3/2 particle used by Zimba and Penrose to give proofs of the Kochen-Specker and Bell theorems is identical (i.e., unitarily equivalent) in CP(3) to the set of 40 rays derived from the…
