We give a necessary and sufficient condition for two circles, each with finitely many points added inside, to be betweenness isomorphic. We fully characterize the betweenness isomorphism classes in the family consisting of all circles with…
A variety $X$ is covered by lines if there exist a finite number of lines contained in $X$ passing through each general point. I prove two theorems. Theorem 1:Let $X^n\subset P^M$ be a variety covered by lines. Then there are at most $n!$…
In this paper we survey Eckardt points on a smooth complex cubic threefold with an approach aimed at computing all Eckardt points of a cubic threefold. In addition, we construct cubic threefolds with no Eckardt points but containing triple…
In 1884 the German mathematician Karl Rohn published a substantial paper on \cite{ROH} on the properties of quartic surfaces with triple points, proving (among many other things) that the maximum number of lines contained in a quartic…
By a poly-line drawing of a graph G on n vertices we understand a drawing of G in the plane such that each edge is represented by a polygonal arc joining its two respective vertices. We call a turning point of a polygonal arc the bend. We…
We classify all surfaces with constant Gaussian curvature $K$ in Euclidean $3$-space that can be expressed as an implicit equation of type $f(x)+g(y)+h(z)=0$, where $f$, $g$ and $h$ are real functions of one variable. If $K=0$, we prove…
In this paper we give a classification of tilings of the sphere by congruent quadrilaterals with exactly two equal edges. The tilings are the earth map tilings, $(p,q)$-earth map tilings and their flip modifications, and quadrilateral…
We show that any surface of infinite type admits an ideal triangulation. Furthermore, we show that a set of disjoint arcs can be completed into a triangulation if and only if, as a set, they intersect every simple closed curve a finite…
A class of surfaces-graphs in a Riemannian 3-space with a prescribed projection of one field of principal directions onto a surface $\Pi$ is considered. A problem of determination of such surfaces when both principal curvatures are given…
In this paper we construct a new class of algebraic surfaces in three-dimensional Euclidean space generated by a cyclic-harmonic curve and a congruence of circles. We study their properties and visualize them with the program Mathematica.
In this paper we give two different proofs of Bobenko and Springborn's theorem of circle pattern: there exists a hyperbolic (or Euclidean) circle pattern with proscribed intersection angles and cone angles on a cellular decomposed surface…
Motivated by questions occuring in the construction of certain twistor spaces the parameter space of conics tangent to a given quartic is investigated. For a given real quartic surface in complex $\PP ^3$ that has exactly 13 ordinary nodes…
We define a laminar branched surface to be a branched surface satisfying the following conditions: (1) Its horizontal boundary is incompressible; (2) there is no monogon; (3) there is no Reeb component; (4) there is no sink disk (after…
The main goal of this paper is to show that helix surfaces and the Enneper surface are the only surfaces in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space $R^3$ whose isogonal lines are generalized helices and pseudo-geodesic lines.
A surface in Euclidean space $\r^3$ is said to be an $\alpha$-stationary surface if it is a critical point of the energy $\int_\Sigma|p|^\alpha$, where $\alpha\in\r$. We prove that all ruled $\alpha$-stationary surfaces are vector planes…
The aim of this note is to give a formula expressing the trace form associated with the 27 lines of a cubic surface.
Consider an analytic map of a neighborhood of 0 in a vector space to a Euclidean space. Suppose that this map takes all germs of lines passing through 0 to germs of circles. Such a map is called rounding. We introduce a natural equivalence…
Let K be a field of characteristic different from 2 and C an elliptic curve over K given by a Weierstrass equation. To divide an element of the group C by 2, one must solve a certain quartic equation. We characterise the quartics arising…
We study convex polyhedra in three-space that are inscribed in a quadric surface. Up to projective transformations, there are three such surfaces: the sphere, the hyperboloid, and the cylinder. Our main result is that a planar graph…
We establish Manin's conjecture for a quartic del Pezzo surface split over Q and having a singularity of type A_3 and containing exactly four lines. It is the first example of split singular quartic del Pezzo surface whose universal torsor…
