Let $J$ be a simple closed curve in $\mathbb R^{k}$ $(k\geq2)$ that is differentiable with non-zero derivative at a point $A_0\in J$. For a tuple of positive reals $a_1,\cdots,a_n$ $(n\geq3)$, each of which is less than the sum of the…

Nielsen's theorem states that any triangle can be inscribed in a planar Jordan curve. We prove a generalisation of this theorem, extending to any Jordan curve $J$ embedded in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$, for a restricted set of triangles. We then…

The classical Jordan curve theorem for digital curves asserts that the Jordan curve theorem remains valid in the Khalimsky plane. Since the Khalimsky plane is a quotient space of $\mathbb R^2$ induced by a tiling of squares, it is natural…

A new elementary nonstandard proof of the Jordan curve theorem is given. The proof (the technical part consists of 4 pages) is self-contained, except for the Jordan theorem for polygons taken for granted.

We show that both, the Jordan curve theorem and the Schoenflies theorem extend to non-metric manifolds (at least in the two-dimensional context), and conclude by some dynamical applications \`a la Poincar\'e-Bendixson.

This paper gives a concise proof of the Jordan curve theorem on discrete surfaces. We also embed the discrete surface in the 2D plane to prove the original version of the Jordan curve theorem. This paper is a simple version of L. Chen, Note…

D. Benkovi\v{c} described Jordan homomorphisms of algebras of triangular matrices over a commutative unital ring without additive $2$-torsion. We extend this result to the case of noncommutative rings and remove the assumption of additive…

In this paper, we show that the $C^1$-differentiability of the norm of a two-dimensional normed space depends only on distances between points of the unit sphere in two different ways. As a consequence, we see that any isometry between the…

This paper presents a formalized proof of a discrete form of the Jordan Curve Theorem. It is based on a hypermap model of planar subdivisions, formal specifications and proofs assisted by the Coq system. Fundamental properties are proven by…

Let C be real-analytic simple closed curve in the complex plane which is symmetric with respect to the real axis. Let r>0 be such that C+ir misses C-ir. We prove that if a continuous function f extends holomorphically from C+it for each t…

The square peg problem asks whether every Jordan curve in the plane has four points which form a square. The problem has been resolved (positively) for various classes of curves, but remains open in full generality. We present two new…

In this short note we prove that every Jordan derivation of triangular algebras is a derivation.

Meyerson's Theorem says that all but at most 2 points of any Jordan loop are vertices of inscribed equilateral triangles. We show that for any Jordan loop there are uncountable many other triangle shapes for which this same result is true.…

We classify the set of quadrilaterals that can be inscribed in convex Jordan curves, in the continuous as well as in the smooth case. This answers a question of Makeev in the special case of convex curves. The difficulty of this problem…

There have been several propositions for a geometric and essentially non-linear formulation of quantum mechanics. From a purely mathematical point of view, the point of view of Jordan algebra theory might give new strength to such…

We prove that unital surjective spectral isometries on certain non-simple unital C*-algebras are Jordan isomorphisms. Along the way, we establish several general facts in the setting of semisimple Banach algebras.

We characterize embedded $\C^1$ hypersurfaces of $\R^n$ as the only locally closed sets with continuously varying flat tangent cones whose measure-theoretic-multiplicity is at most $m<3/2$. It follows then that any (topological)…

Using a definition of Jordan curve similar to that of Dieudonn\'e, we prove that our notion is equivalent to that used by Berg et al. in their constructive proof of the Jordan Curve Theorem. We then establish a number of properties of…

Let $W$ be a quasiprojective variety over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Assume that $W$ is birational to a product of a smooth projective variety $A$ and the projective line. We prove that if $A$ contains no rational…

Let $C$ be a generic complex plane plane curve with a given Newton polygon $P$. We compute the number of its inflection points and bitangents (equivalently, the number of singularities of the projectively dual curve $C^\vee$). We also prove…
