We consider the problem of distinguishing convex subsets of $n$-cyclotomic model sets $\varLambda$ by (discrete parallel) X-rays in prescribed $\varLambda$-directions. In this context, a `magic number' $m_{\varLambda}$ has the property that…

The problem of determining finite subsets of characteristic planar model sets (mathematical quasicrystals) $\varLambda$, called cyclotomic model sets, by parallel $X$-rays is considered. Here, an $X$-ray in direction $u$ of a finite subset…

We consider algebraic Delone sets $\varLambda$ in the Euclidean plane and address the problem of distinguishing convex subsets of $\varLambda$ by X-rays in prescribed $\varLambda$-directions, i.e., directions parallel to nonzero interpoint…

We address the problem of determining finite subsets of Delone sets $\varLambda\subset\R^d$ with long-range order by $X$-rays in prescribed $\varLambda$-directions, i.e., directions parallel to non-zero interpoint vectors of $\varLambda$.…

We give a new combinatorial proof for the number of convex polyominoes whose minimum enclosing rectangle has given dimensions. We also count the subclass of these polyominoes that contain the lower left corner of the enclosing rectangle…

In the lightly bound Skyrme model, several Skyrmions having particularly strong binding are clusters of unit baryon number Skyrmions arranged as truncated tetrahedra. Their baryon numbers form the sequence B = 4, 16, 40, 80, 140, 224. This…

Discrete tomography is a well-established method to investigate finite point sets, in particular finite subsets of periodic systems. Here, we start to develop an efficient approach for the treatment of finite subsets of mathematical…

The X-ray numbers of some classes of convex bodies are investigated. In particular, we give a proof of the X-ray Conjecture as well as of the Illumination Conjecture for almost smooth convex bodies of any dimension and for convex bodies of…

We give a review of results on the minimum convex cover and maximum hidden set problems. In addition, we give some new results. First we show that it is NP-hard to determine whether a polygon has the same convex cover number as its hidden…

In 2020, Cameron et al. introduced the restricted numerical range of a digraph (directed graph) as a tool for characterizing digraphs and studying their algebraic connectivity. In particular, digraphs with a restricted numerical range of a…

In this short paper we have produced different kinds of upside down magic squares based on a palindromic day 11.02.2011. In this day appear only the algorisms 0, 1 and 2. Some of the magic squares are bimagic and some are palindromic. Magic…

In this article we estimate the number of integers up to $X$ which can be represented by a positive-definite, binary integral quadratic form of discriminant which is small relative to $X$. This follows from understanding the vector of signs…

In this short note we have given an equation based on the date 11.09.2001 and presented some magic squares. The magic squares presented are of order 3x3, 4x4, 5x5, 9x9, 16x16 and 25x25. While the magic square of higher order 9x9, 16x16 and…

We give some new explicit examples of putatively optimal projective spherical designs. i.e., ones for which there is numerical evidence that they are of minimal size. These form continuous families, and so have little apparent symmetry in…

Fix any $\lambda\in\mathbb{C}$. We say that a set $S\subseteq\mathbb{C}$ is $\lambda$-$convex$ if, whenever $a$ and $b$ are in $S$, the point $(1-\lambda)a+\lambda b$ is also in $S$. If $S$ is also (topologically) closed, then we say that…

The Upper Bound Theorem for convex polytopes implies that the $p$-th Betti number of the \v{C}ech complex of any set of $N$ points in $\mathbb R^d$ and any radius satisfies $\beta_{p} = O(N^{m})$, with $m = \min \{ p+1, \lceil d/2 \rceil…

We prove that with high probability, a uniform sample of $n$ points in a convex domain in $\mathbb{R}^d$ can be rounded to points on a grid of step size proportional to $1/n^{d+1+\epsilon}$ without changing the underlying chirotope…

We study discrete orderings in the real spectrum of a commutative ring by defining discrete prime cones and give an algebro-geometric meaning to some kind of diophantine problems over discretely ordered rings. Also for a discretely ordered…

Least common multiple ($lcm$) has been shown to posses the property of $D$-magic number, that is, its least significant digit $0$ does not change when the number is transferred into all other numbering systems with smaller bases. The number…

We study finite groups that occur as combinatorial automorphism groups or geometric symmetry groups of convex polytopes. When $\Gamma$ is a subgroup of the combinatorial automorphism group of a convex $d$-polytope, $d\geq 3$, then there…
