If $P$ is a point inside $\triangle ABC$, then the cevians through $P$ divide $\triangle ABC$ into smaller triangles of various sizes. We give theorems about the relationship between the radii of certain excircles of some of these…

We classify SIC-POVMs of rank one in CP^2, or equivalently sets of nine equally-spaced points in CP^2, without the assumption of group covariance. If two points are fixed, the remaining seven must lie on a pinched torus that a standard…

We will make the case that \textit{pedal coordinates} (instead of polar or Cartesian coordinates) are more natural settings in which to study force problems of classical mechanics in the plane. We will show that the trajectory of a test…

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…

We construct the smooth, compact moduli space of similarity classes of labeled, oriented triangles. The space, denoted $\mathfrak D$, is a connected sum of three projective planes, and projects via blowdown to two shape spaces that have…

We consider the generalised friendship paradox, focussing on the number of triangles at a vertex as the relevant attribute. We show that, contrary to the setting where the attribute is the number of edges at a vertex or the number of wedges…

Two vertex-labelled polygons are \emph{compatible} if they have the same clockwise cyclic ordering of vertices. The definition extends to polygonal regions (polygons with holes) and to triangulations---for every face, the clockwise cyclic…

We prove that if one colors each point of the Euclidean plane with one of five colors, then there exist two points of the same color that are either distance $1$ or distance $2$ apart.

In this paper, we introduce discrete conics, polygonal analogues of conics. We show that discrete conics satisfy a number of nice properties analogous to those of conics, and arise naturally from several constructions, including the…

The Six Circles Theorem of C. Evelyn, G. Money-Coutts, and J. Tyrrell concerns chains of circles inscribed into a triangle: the first circle is inscribed in the first angle, the second circle is inscribed in the second angle and tangent to…

Given a noncyclic quadrilateral, we consider an iterative procedure producing a new quadrilateral at each step. At each iteration, the vertices of the new quadrilateral are the circumcenters of the triad circles of the previous generation…

Let $P$ be a finite set of points in the plane. A c-ordinary triangle is a set of three non-collinear points of $P$ such that each line spanned by the points contains at most $c$ points of $P$. We show that if $P$ is not contained in the…

Analogously as in classical algebraic geometry, linear pencils of tropical plane curves are parameterized by tropical lines in a coefficient space. A special example of such a linear pencil is the set of tropical plane curves with an…

We interpret a normal surface in a (singular) three-manifold in terms of the homology of a chain complex. This allows us to study the relation between normal surfaces and their quadrilateral co-ordinates. Specifically, we give a proof of an…

We study the correlations of directions $P_0 P$ in the Euclidean plane, where $P_0$ is a point in a fixed disc, $P$ is an integer lattice point in the square $[-Q,Q]^2$, and $Q\to \infty$.

We investigate the lines tangent to four triangles in R^3. By a construction, there can be as many as 62 tangents. We show that there are at most 162 connected components of tangents, and at most 156 if the triangles are disjoint. In…

We use three seminal approaches in the study of fixed point theory, the so called $G$-metrics, multidimensional fixed points and partially ordered spaces. More precisely, we extend known results from the theory of quasi-pseudometric spaces…

We introduce the notion of $P_{\lambda}$ points, which canonically parametrize points on the Euler line. This allows us to show that the Euler line of any $d$-dimensional inscribed polygon in Euclidean space arises from the Euler lines of…

In this paper, we present a synthetic solution to a geometric open problem involving the radical axis of two strangely defined circumcircles. The solution encapsulates two generalizations, one of which uses a powerful projective result…

We study triangles $ABC$ and points $P$ for which the generalized orthocenter $H$ corresponding to $P$ coincides with a vertex $A,B$, or $C$. The set of all such points $P$ is a union of three ellipses minus $6$ points. In addition, if…
