A Pythagorean n-tuple is an integer solution of x_1^2+...+x_{n-1}^2=x_n^2. For n=4 and n=6, the Pythagorean n-tuples admit a parametrization by a single n-tuple of polynomials with integer coefficients (which is impossible for n=3). For…
Fully symmetric positive interior (f-SPI) quadrature rules are key building blocks for high-order discretizations of partial differential equations, yet high-degree rules with few nodes remain scarce on reference elements commonly used in…
This contribution deals with an extension to our developed novel cubature methods of degrees 5 on Wiener space. In our previous studies, we have shown that the cubature formula is exact for all multiple Stratonovich integrals up to…
We show how to construct a cubic partial cube from any simplicial arrangement of lines or pseudolines in the projective plane. As a consequence, we find nine new infinite families of cubic partial cubes as well as many sporadic examples.
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…
These notes are intended as an easy-to-read supplement to part of the background material presented in my talks on enumerative geometry. In particular, the numbers $n_3$ and $n_4$ of plane rational cubics through eight points and of plane…
Bosonic codes utilize the infinite-dimensional Hilbert space of harmonic oscillators to encode quantum information, offering a hardware-efficient approach to quantum error correction. Designing these codes requires precise geometric…
Node elimination is a numerical approach to obtain cubature rules for the approximation of multivariate integrals. Beginning with a known cubature rule, nodes are selected for elimination, and a new, more efficient rule is constructed by…
The five (5) families of quadrature rules with periods of one or two intervals for the real line and spline classes $C^0$, $C^1$ are presented. The formulae allow one to calculate the points or weights of these quadrature rules in a very…
Cubical rectangles are being defined and explored here over the $n-$dimensional geometric cube $Q_n.$ They form a new class of geometric objects that includes all the edges and all the squares of the $n-$cube. We enumerate and characterize…
For Tur\'an's (3, 4)-conjecture, in the case of n = 3k+1 vertices, (.5)6^{k-1} non-isomorphic complexes are constructed that attain the conjecture. In the case of n = 3k+2 vertices, 6^{k-1} non-isomorphic complexes are constructed that…
We provide explicit combinatorial formulas for Ottaviani's degree 15 invariant which detects cubics in 5 variables that are sums of 7 cubes. Our approach is based on the chromatic properties of certain graphs and relies on computer searches…
We consider a system of $R$ cubic forms in $n$ variables, with integer coefficients, which define a smooth complete intersection in projective space. Provided $n\geq 25R$, we prove an asymptotic formula for the number of integer points in…
In this paper, we study the problem of computing a minimum-width axis-aligned cubic shell that encloses a given set of $n$ points in a three-dimensional space. A cubic shell is a closed volume between two concentric and face-parallel cubes.…
Rubik's Cube is one of the most famous combinatorial puzzles involving nearly $4.3 \times 10^{19}$ possible configurations. Its mathematical description is expressed by the Rubik's group, whose elements define how its layers rotate. We…
We consider the classical geometric problem of prescribing the scalar and boundary mean curvatures via conformal deformation of the metric on a $n-$dimensional compact Riemannian manifold. We deal with the case of negative scalar curvature…
We prove that the smallest degree of an apolar 0-dimensional scheme of a general cubic form in $n+1$ variables is at most $2n+2$, when $n\geq 8$, and therefore smaller than the rank of the form. For the general reducible cubic form the…
Analytical formulae for the points and weights of two fifth-order quadrature rules for C_3, the 3-cube, are given. The rules, originally formulated by A. H. Stroud in 1967, are discussed in greater detail in terms of both the setup of the…
We consider sequential random packing of cubes $z+[0,1]^n$ with $z\in \frac{1}{N}\ZZ^n$ into the cube $[0,2]^n$ and the torus $\QuotS{\RR^n}{2\ZZ^n}$ as $N\to\infty$. In the cube case $[0,2]^n$ as $N\to\infty$ the random cube packings thus…
We compute the degree of the projective variety of Poncelet curves of degree $n$. This variety is irreducible of dimension $2 n + 5$, and lies inside the projective space of degree $n$ plane curves. It is classically defined as the closure…
