We consider Apollonian circle packings of a half Euclidean plane. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for two such packings to be related by a Euclidean similarity (that is, by translations, reflections, rotations and dilations) and…
We identify the complex plane C with the open unit disc D={z:|z|<1} by the homeomorphism z --> z/(1+|z|). This leads to a compactification $\bar{C}$ of C, homeomorphic to the closed unit disc. The Euclidean metric on the closed unit disc…
It is known that the $k$-faces of the permutohedron $\Pi_n$ are labeled by (all possible) linearly ordered partitions of the set $[n]=\{1,...,n\}$ into $(n-k)$ non-empty parts. The incidence relation corresponds to the refinement: a face…
We study the geometry of reflection of a massive point-like particle at conic section boundaries. Thereby the particle is subjected to a central force associated with either a Kepler or Hooke potential. The conic section is assumed to have…
The particle-hole (PH) symmetry at half-filled Landau level requires the relationship between the flux number N_phi and the particle number N on a sphere to be exactly N_phi - 2(N-1) = 1. The wave functions of composite fermions with 1/2…
Let $X$ be a quadratic vector field with a center whose generic orbits are algebraic curves of genus one. To each $X$ we associate an elliptic surface (a smooth complex compact surface which is a genus one fibration). We give the list of…
The classical Dirichlet space is a complete Pick space, hence by a theorem of Agler and McCarthy, there exists an embedding $b$ of the unit disc into a $d$-dimensional ball such that composition with $b$ realizes the Dirichlet space as a…
We prove an analog of Belyi's theorem for the algebraic surfaces. Namely, any non-singular algebraic surface can be defined over a number field if and only it covers the complex projective plane with ramification at three knotted…
Let $D$ be a division ring with center $F$. We say that $D$ is a {\em division ring of type $2$} if for every two elements $x, y\in D,$ the division subring $F(x, y)$ is a finite dimensional vector space over $F$. In this paper we…
A packing of disks in the plane is a set of disks with disjoint interiors. This paper is a survey of some open questions about such packings. It is organized into five themes: compacity, conjugacy, density, uniformity and computability.
We discuss integrable discretizations of 3-dimensional cyclic systems, that is, orthogonal coordinate systems with one family of circular coordinate lines. In particular, the underlying circle congruences are investigated in detail, and…
For a finite set $S$ of points in the plane and a graph with vertices on $S$ consider the disks with diameters induced by the edges. We show that for any odd set $S$ there exists a Hamiltonian cycle for which these disks share a point, and…
We prove: If a complete connected smooth surface M in euclidean 3-space has general position, intersects some plane along a clean figure-8 (a loop with total curvature zero) and all compact intersections with planes have central symmetry,…
We show the existence of $(\epsilon,n)$-complements for $(\epsilon,\mathbb{R})$-complementary surface pairs when the coefficients of boundaries belong to a DCC set.
Let $W$ denote a simply-laced Coxeter group with $n$ generators. We construct an $n$-dimensional representation $\phi$ of $W$ over the finite field $F_2$ of two elements. The action of $\phi(W)$ on $F_2^n$ by left multiplication is…
Let \phi: \mathbb{P}^{r}\dashrightarrow Z be a birational transformation with a smooth connected base locus scheme, where Z\subseteq\mathbb{P}^{r+c} is a nondegenerate prime Fano manifold. We call \phi a quadro-quadric special briational…
Associated to a convex integral polygon $N$ in the plane are two integrable systems: the cluster integrable system of Goncharov and Kenyon, constructed from the dimer model on bipartite torus graphs, and the Beauville integrable system…
We define billiards in the context of sub-Finsler Geometry. We provide symplectic and variational (or rather, control theoretical) descriptions of the problem and show that they coincide. We then discuss several phenomena in this setting,…
Sectors at centre of affine quadrics with point symmetry are investigated over arbitrary fields of characteristic different from two. As an application we demonstrate nice formulas for the area and the volume of such planar and spatial…
A circle pattern is a configuration of circles in the plane whose combinatorics is given by a planar graph G such that to each vertex of G corresponds a circle. If two vertices are connected by an edge in G, the corresponding circles…
