This article presents a whirlwind tour of some results surrounding the Koebe-Andre'ev-Thurston Theorem, Bill Thurston's seminal circle packing theorem that appears in Chapter 13 of The Geometry and Topology of Three-Manifolds. It will…
An enumerative theory of triangulations of simplicial complexes has been developed by Stanley. A key role in his theory is played by the local $h$-polynomial of a triangulation of a simplex. This paper develops a parallel theory, in which…
Based on the well-known algorithm of W. Penney we determine the set of lengths of the canonical representation of integers with respect to the trinomial X^2m + 2X^m + 2.
We study spherical tetrahedra with rational dihedral angles and rational volumes. Such tetrahedra occur in the Rational Simplex Conjecture by Cheeger and Simons, and we supply vast families, discovered by computational efforts, of positive…
In 1924, S. Banach and A. Tarski proved an astonishing, yet rather counterintuitive paradox: given a solid ball in $\mathbb{R}^3$, it is possible to partition it into finitely many pieces and reassemble them to form two solid balls, each…
We prove a biadjoint triangle theorem and its strict version, which are $2$-dimensional analogues of the adjoint triangle theorem of Dubuc. Similarly to the $1$-dimensional case, we demonstrate how we can apply our results to get the…
We present a collection of results concerning the location and distribution of very triangular numbers among triangular numbers, including the twin very triangular number theorem, the existence of arbitrarily long gaps between -- and an…
Fox conjectured the Alexander polynomial of an alternating knot is trapezoidal, i.e. the coefficients first increase, then stabilize and finally decrease in a symmetric way. Recently, Hirasawa and Murasugi further conjectured a relation…
We categorify cocompleteness results of monad theory, in the context of pseudomonads. We first prove a general result establishing that, in any 2-category, weighted bicolimits can be constructed from oplax bicolimits and bicoequalizers of…
In this paper we obtain a generalization of Matkowski's fixed point theorem and Istratescu's fixed point theorem concerning convex contractions in the framework of b-metric spaces. By providing appropriate examples we show that the above…
We completely characterize triangulations of the projective plane that have a spanning bipartite quadrangulation subgraph. This is an affirmative answer to a question by K\"undgen and Ramamurthi (J Combin Theory Ser B 85, 307--337, 2002)…
This article proves a Pythagoras-type formula for the sides and diagonals of a polygon inscribed in a semicircle having one of the sides of the polygon as diameter.
These notes are formal. Here, in this abstract, not in the note, we should say that all that is in the text was done, essentially, by Aleksander Pe{\l}czy\'nski. BUT: Anyhow, a new notion of an O-frame for an operator is introduced. For the…
Two tetrahedra are called orthologic if the lines through vertices of one and perpendicular to corresponding faces of the other are intersecting. This is equivalent to the orthogonality of non-corresponding edges. We prove that the…
A celebrated but non-effective theorem of Tibor Gallai states that for any finite set $A$ of $\Z^n$ and for any finite number of colors $c$ there is a minimal $m$ such that no coloring of the finite $m^n$-grid can avoid that a homothetic…
We show that the "double circle" order type and some of its generalizations have a compatible triangulation with any other order types with the same number of points and number of edges on convex hull, thus proving another special case of…
This is an expository paper. We prove the Cannon-Thurston property for bounded geometry surface groups with or without punctures. We prove three theorems, due to Cannon-Thurston, Minsky and Bowditch. The proofs are culled out of earlier…
This study investigates a generalisation of the Pythagorean theorem to the lengths of conic arcs constructed symmetrically on the sides of a right triangle. It is demonstrated that the theorem remains valid whenever the conic eccentricity…
We give a solution to a part of Problem 1.60 in Kirby's list of open problems in topology thus answering in the positive the 1987 conjecture by J.Przytycki concerning the existence of knots without matched diagrams.
We consider planar maps with three boundaries, colloquially called pairs of pants. In the case of bipartite maps with controlled face degrees, a simple expression for their generating function was found by Eynard and proved bijectively by…
