The 2-body problem on the sphere and hyperbolic space are both real forms of holomorphic Hamiltonian systems defined on the complex sphere. This admits a natural description in terms of biquaternions and allows us to address questions…
Let $A\subseteq\mathbb C$ be a starlike set with a center $a$. We prove that every tangent space to $A$ at the point $a$ is isometric to the smallest closed cone, with the vertex $a$, which includes $A$. A partial converse to this result is…
Certain topics on polygons are extended from Euclidean to hyperbolic geometry. This first part deals with uniqueness and existence of cocyclic polygons with prescribed sidelengths. The non-Euclidean versions are more difficult due to the…
We present uniqueness results for enclosing ellipses of minimal area in the hyperbolic plane. Uniqueness can be guaranteed if the minimizers are sought among all ellipses with prescribed axes or center. In the general case, we present a…
We study the variety of common tangents for up to four quadric surfaces in projective three-space, with particular regard to configurations of four quadrics admitting a continuum of common tangents. We formulate geometrical conditions in…
A problem that is simple to state in the context of spherical geometry, and that seems rather interesting, appears to have been unexamined to date in the mathematical literature. The problem can also be recast as a problem in the real…
Given two points in the plane, and a set of "obstacles" given as curves through the plane with assigned weights, we consider the point-separation problem, which asks for the minimum-weight subset of the obstacles separating the two points.…
In this paper we continue to study the connection among the area minimizing problem, certain area functional and the Dirichlet problem of minimal surface equations in a class of conformal cones with a similar motivation from \cite{GZ20}.…
Inspired by the boolean discrepancy problem, we study the following optimization problem which we term \textsc{Spherical Discrepancy}: given $m$ unit vectors $v_1, \dots, v_m$, find another unit vector $x$ that minimizes $\max_i \langle x,…
We investigate several topics of triangle geometry in the elliptic and in the extended hyperbolic plane, such as: centers based on orthogonality, centers related to circumcircles and incircles, radical centers and centers of similitude,…
We show that the normal points of a cubic hypersurface in projective space have canonical singularities unless the hypersurface is an iterated cone over an elliptic curve. As an application, we give a simple linear algebraic description of…
In this work we investigate the following isoperimetric problem: to find the regions of prescribed volume with minimal boundary area between two parallel horospheres in hyperbolic 3-space (the area of the part of the boundary contained in…
Using the method of C. V\"or\"os, we establish results on hyperbolic plane geometry, related to triangles. In this note we investigate the orthocenter, the concept of isogonal conjugate and some further center as of the symmedian of a…
In this paper, we consider the convex, finite-sum minimization problem with explicit convex constraints over strongly connected directed graphs. The constraint is an intersection of several convex sets each being known to only one node. To…
Since the end of the 19th century, and after the works of F. Klein and H. Poincar\'e, it is well known that models of elliptic geometry and hyperbolic geometry can be given using projective geometry, and that Euclidean geometry can be seen…
We consider minimal hypersurfaces inside the unit ball whose boundary on the sphere is a small perturbation of the link of a minimizing quadratic cone. We show that such minimal surfaces are uniquely determined by their boundary condition.…
Consider the hyperplanes at a fixed distance $t$ from the center of the hypercube $[0,1]^d$. Significant attention has been given to determining the hyperplanes $H$ among these such that the $(d-1)$-dimensional volume of $H\cap[0,1]^d$ is…
The study of extremal problems on triangle areas was initiated in a series of papers by Erd\H{o}s and Purdy in the early 1970s. In this paper we present new results on such problems, concerning the number of triangles of the same area that…
Recently, we enumerate up to isometry, all locally rigid circle packings on the unit sphere with number of circles N<12. This problem is equivalent to the enumeration of irreducible contact graphs. In this paper we show that by using the…
Using gnomonic projection and Poincar\'e model, we first define the spherical projection body and hyperbolic projection body in spherical space $\mathbb{S}^n$ and hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^n$, then define the spherical Steiner…
