This paper is a preliminary expository paper that outlines the relationship between solutions to the Erd\H{o}s-Straus conjecture for a given prime $p$ and their corresponding Pythagorean triples. This paper also uses B\'{e}zout Coefficients…
Geometry is essentially a global language, which is fully understood in different times, countries and cultures. The proof of a geometric theorem (e.g. the Pythagorean Theorem) or a geometric construction (e.g. the construction of an…
In the Standard Model (SM) charmless hadronic decays $B_s^0 \rightarrow \eta^\prime \eta$ proceed via tree-level $b\to u$ and penguin $b\to s$ transitions. Penguin transitions are sensitive to Beyond-the-Standard-Model (BSM) physics…
An $\omega$-wedge is the closed set of points contained between two rays that are emanating from a single point (the apex), and are separated by an angle $\omega < \pi$. Given a convex polygon $P$, we place the $\omega$-wedge such that $P$…
In this article, we discuss whether a single congruent number $t$ can have two (or more) distinct triangles with the same hypotenuse. We also describe and carry out computational experimentation providing evidence that this does not occur.
A $d$-angulation is a planar map with faces of degree $d$. We present for each integer $d\geq 3$ a bijection between the class of $d$-angulations of girth $d$ (i.e., with no cycle of length less than $d$) and a class of decorated plane…
Say that $(x, y, z)$ is a positive primitive integral Pythagorean triple if $x, y, z$ are positive integers without common factors satisfying $x^2 + y^2 = z^2$. An old theorem of Berggren gives three integral invertible linear…
With the time dependant CP asymmetry in $B_d(t) \to \psi K_S$ well measured, the most powerful method to search for {\em direct} CP violation in $B_d$ decays is to analyze whether the CP asymmetry of other transitions like $B_d(t) \to \pi…
We consider the construction of a polygon $P$ with $n$ vertices whose turning angles at the vertices are given by a sequence $A=(\alpha_0,\ldots, \alpha_{n-1})$, $\alpha_i\in (-\pi,\pi)$, for $i\in\{0,\ldots, n-1\}$. The problem of…
Although recent experimental results in b-->s penguin process seem to be roughly consistent with the standard model predictions, there may be still large possibilities of new physics hiding in this processes. Therefore, here we investigate…
A fixed set of vertices in the plane may have multiple planar straight-line triangulations in which the degree of each vertex is the same. As such, the degree information does not completely determine the triangulation. We show that even if…
It is well known that Pythagorean triples can be parametrized by two triples of polynomials with integer coefficients. We show that no single triple of polynomials with integer coefficients in any number of variables is sufficient, but that…
We investigate $B^{\pm,0}\rightarrow \rho^0 (\omega )h^{\pm,0}$, where $\rho^0 (\omega)$ decays to $\pi^+\pi^-$ and $h$ is any hadronic final states, such as $\pi$ or $K$. We find large direct $CP$ asymmetries via $\rho-\omega$…
A \emph{primitive hole} of a graph $G$ is a cycle of length 3 in $G$. The number of primitive holes in a given graph $G$ is called the primitive hole number of the graph $G$. The primitive degree of a vertex $v$ of a given graph $G$ is the…
In the current work, we propose a generalization of angles and orthogonality from $L^2$ to generic Banach spaces, starting from a $L^p$ version of the Pythagorean theorem, $p\in [1,\infty)$. The starting point is conservation of energy…
Much of the past work on asynchronous approximate Byzantine consensus has assumed scalar inputs at the nodes [3, 7]. Recent work has yielded approximate Byzantine consensus algorithms for the case when the input at each node is a…
We present the contributions of new CP phases in CP asymmetries of two-body neutral $B_s$ decays coming from a left--right model with spontaneous CP violation. Large deviations from the Standard Model predictions can be accommodated in a…
We study closed smooth convex plane curves $\Gamma$ enjoying the following property: a pair of points $x,y$ can traverse $\Gamma$ so that the distances between $x$ and $y$ along the curve and in the ambient plane do not change; such curves…
By examining the 3 surface angles which exist at any of the 8 vertices of a Diophantine parallelepiped, and classifying them by the appearance of a right angle, it is discovered that 5 unique classes of Diophantine parallelepipeds exist. It…
CP-violating asymmetries in the decay $B^0(t)\to \pi^+ \pi^-$ are a potentially rich source of information about both strong and weak phases. In a previous treatment by the present authors use was made of an assumption about the relative…
