We prove that every solution of the Helmholtz equation within an equilateral triangle, which obeys the Dirichlet conditions on the boundary, is a member of one of four symmetry classes. We then show how solutions with different symmetries,…
We give explicit linear bounds on the p-cohomological dimension of a field in terms of its Diophantine dimension. In particular, we show that for a field of Diophantine dimension at most 4, the 3-cohomological dimension is less than or…
We give a list of universal linear relations between the Euler characteristics of manifolds consisting of multisingularities of a generic Lagrangian map into a five-dimensional space. From these relations it follows, in particular, that the…
In this work, we introduce a new geometry based on the difference angle, an angle defined as the difference of slopes of two lines, together with an axiomatic system for angles. This framework provides a constructive approach to the…
We characterize quasiconformal mappings in terms of the distortion of the vertices of equilateral triangles.
The triangulations of a regular convex polygon are enumerated according to the number of diagonals parallel to a fixed edge. The enumeration uses the Shapiro convolution identity, as well as an interpretation of this identity in terms of…
The main result of the present paper is the construction of fundamental solutions for a class of multidimensional elliptic equations with three singular coefficients, which could be expressed in terms of a confluent hypergeometric function…
An important unsolved problem in Diophantine number theory is to establish a general method to effectively find all solutions to any given $S$-unit equation with at least four terms. Although there are many works contributing to this…
Starting from any given rational-sided, right triangle, for example the $(3,4,5)$-triangle with area $6$, we use Euclidean geometry to show that there are infinitely many other rational-sided, right triangles of the same area. We show…
In this paper, based on the theory of surfaces in the four-dimensional Euclidean space which generalizes the theory of surfaces in three-dimensional Euclidean space, beside other results, we will give a characterization of points on…
In this paper we provide criteria for the insolvability of the Diophantine equation $x^2+D=y^n$. This result is then used to determine the class number of the quadratic field $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-D})$. We also determine some criteria for the…
The two-dimensional surface of a bi-axial ellipsoid is characterized by the lengths of its major and minor axes. Longitude and latitude span an angular coordinate system across. We consider the egg-shaped surface of constant altitude above…
We characterize the three-dimensional spaces admitting at least six or at least seven equidistant points. In particular, we show the existence of $C^\infty$ norms on $\R^3$ admitting six equidistant points, which refutes a conjecture of…
Euclid uses an undefined notion of "equal figures", to which he applies the common notions about equals added to equals or subtracted from equals. When (in previous work) we formalized Euclid Book~I for computer proof-checking, we had to…
A perfect cuboid is a rectangular parallelepiped. Its edges, its face diagonals, and its space diagonal are of integer lengths. None of such cuboids is known thus far, though the system of Diophantine equations describing them is easily…
In this paper we study elliptic curves which have a number of points whose coordinates are in arithmetic progression. We first motivate this diophantine problem, prove some results, provide a number of interesting examples and, finally…
In Euclidean geometry, the Pythagorean theorem is presented as an equation involving three squares. This paper explores how analogous expressions may be identified in spherical and hyperbolic geometries.
For a given irrational number, we consider the properties of best rational approximations of given parities. There are three different kinds of rational numbers according to the parity of the numerator and denominator, say odd/odd, even/odd…
We develop an algebraic method of studying of Diophantine quadratic equations in three variables over the ring of Gaussian integers.
Let E be a point in the plane of a convex quadrilateral ABCD. The lines from E to the vertices of the quadrilateral form four triangles. If we locate a triangle center in each of these triangles, the four triangle centers form another…
