We examine implications of angles having their own dimension, in the same sense as do lengths, masses, {\it etc.} The conventional practice in scientific applications involving trigonometric or exponential functions of angles is to assume…

I review some facts which the usual sen(x) and cos(x) definitions are based on. The purpose of this paper is to show that this facts can be proved if we assume some basic ideas of elementary geometry.
Few among us would know that the first mention of the sine and the enumeration of the first sine table are to be credited to Aryabhata. The method to generate this relies on the sine difference formula which is derived using ingenious…
We consider the ordinary differential equations defined by a trigonometric polynomial field, we prove that any solution $x$ admits a "rotation vector" $\rho\in \mathbb{R}^n$. More precisely, the function $t\mapsto x(t)-\rho t$ is bounded on…
We investigate the sufficient conditions for boundedness of one type of difference equations of the form $x(n+1)=ax(n)+f(x(n)) + y(n), \ n\geq 1$ in critical case $|a|=1$. For this equation the following assumptions are introduced: 1) The…

It is proved that a triangulation of a polyhedron can always be transformed into any other triangulation of the polyhedron by using only elementary moves. One consequence is that an additive function (valuation) defined only on simplices…
We determine all entire functions $f$ such that for nonzero complex values $a\neq b$ the implications $f=a \Rightarrow f' =a$ and $f' =b \Rightarrow f=b$ hold. This solves an open problem in uniqueness theory. In this context we give a…
