We fully characterize orthogonal projections of infinite right circular (round) cones in real Hilbert spaces. Another interpretation is that, given two vectors in a real Hilbert space, we establish the optimal estimate on the angle between…
In this paper, we study a reverse isoperimetric inequality for planar convex bodies whose radius of curvature is between two positive numbers 0 < $\alpha$ < $\beta$, called ($\alpha$, $\beta$)--convex bodies. We show that among planar…
The direct variational determination of the two-electron reduced-density matrix (2-RDM) is usually carried out under the assumption that the 2-RDM is a real-valued quantity. However, in systems that possess orbital angular momentum…
Euler proved that every rotation of a 3-dimensional body can be realized as a sequence of three rotations around two given axes. If we allow sequences of an arbitrary length, such a decomposition will not be unique. In this paper we solve…
In this work we study the maximum relative diameter functional $d_M$ in the class of multi-rotationally symmetric planar convex bodies. A given set $C$ of this class is $k$-rotationally symmetric for $k\in\{k_1,\ldots,k_n\}\subset\nn$, and…
We study the problem of finding maximum-area rectangles contained in a polygon in the plane. There has been a fair amount of work for this problem when the rectangles have to be axis-aligned or when the polygon is convex. We consider this…
The orbital angular momentum of light, unlike spin, is an infinite-dimensional discrete variable and may hence offer enhanced performances for encoding, transmitting, and processing information in the quantum regime. Hitherto, this degree…
Relative equilibria on a rotating meridian on $\mathbb{S}^2$ in equal-mass three-body problem under the cotangent potential are determined. We show the existence of scalene and isosceles relative equilibria. Almost all isosceles triangles,…
We show that the spectrum of orbital angular momentum in quantum mechanics consists of two parts when the underlying space has periodic boundaries. While the first part consists of the usual textbook integer quantized values, the second is…
We apply the differential equation technique to the calculation of the one-loop massless diagram with five onshell legs. Using the reduction to $\epsilon$-form, we manage to obtain a simple one-fold integral representation exact in…
Coincidence-structures in the transverse plane of Type-II spontaneous parametric down-conversion carrying orbital angular momentum are obtained. Azimuthal symmetry breaking around the pump beam direction reveals itself on these quantum…
Steffen's polyhedron was believed to have the least number of vertices among polyhedra that can flex without self-intersections. Maksimov clarified that the pentagonal bipyramid with one face subdivided into three is the only polyhedron…
This study presents a study of equilibrium points, periodic orbits, stabilities, and manifolds in a rotating plane symmetric potential field. It has been found that the dynamical behaviour near equilibrium points is completely determined by…
Galactic bars, made up of elongated and aligned stellar orbits, can lose angular momentum via resonant torques with dark matter particles in the halo and slow down. Here we show that if a stellar bar is decelerated to zero rotation speed,…
Let us consider a family $F(\alpha,\beta,\gamma,\delta)$ of convex quadrangles in the plane with given angles $\{\alpha,\beta,\gamma,\delta\}$ and with the perimeter $2\pi$. Such quadrangle $Q\in F(\alpha,\beta,\gamma,\delta)$ can be…
Under the spin-position decoupling approximation, a vector with a phase in 3D orientation space endowed with geometric algebra, substitutes the vector-matrix spin model built on the Pauli spin operator. The standard quantum operator-state…
In this paper we prove that solutions to several shape optimization problems in the plane, with a convexity constraint on the admissible domains, are polygons. The main terms of the shape functionals we consider are either E f ($\Omega$),…

We classify closed, simply connected $n$-manifolds of non-negative sectional curvature admitting an isometric torus action of maximal symmetry rank in dimensions $2\leq n\leq 6$. In dimensions $3k$, $k=1,2$ there is only one such manifold…
We prove two results about transforming any convex polyhedron, modeled as a linkage L of its edges. First, if we subdivide each edge of L in half, then L can be continuously flattened into a plane. Second, if L is equilateral and we again…
