Based on a novel discretization procedure which has recently been proposed and applied in the construction of a canonical discrete analogue of confocal coordinate systems, an explicit method of constructing discrete analogues of ellipsoids…
This paper gives a complete classification of conics in $PE_2(\mathbb{R})$. The classification has been made earlier (Reveruk [5]), but it showed to be incomplete and not possible to cite and use in further studies of properties of conics,…
In this paper we consider planar polygons with parallel opposite sides. This type of polygons can be regarded as discretizations of closed convex planar curves by taking tangent lines at samples with pairwise parallel tangents. For this…
Cycloids, hipocycloids and epicycloids have an often forgotten common property: they are homothetic to their evolutes. But what if use convex symmetric polygons as unit balls, can we define evolutes and cycloids which are genuinely…
This article is devoted to the study of classical and new results concerning equidistant sets, both from the topological and metric point of view. We start with a review of the most interesting known facts about these sets in the euclidean…
Inspired by the Weierstrass representation of smooth affine minimal surfaces with indefinite metric, we propose a constructive process producing a large class of discrete surfaces that we call discrete affine minimal surfaces. We show that…
We derive properties and a characterization of discrete composition matrices which are useful in the field of numerical computation of shape correspondences.
We discuss integrable discretizations of 3-dimensional cyclic systems, that is, orthogonal coordinate systems with one family of circular coordinate lines. In particular, the underlying circle congruences are investigated in detail, and…
We propose a discretization of classical confocal coordinates. It is based on a novel characterization thereof as factorizable orthogonal coordinate systems. Our geometric discretization leads to factorizable discrete nets with a novel…
We construct special conics configurations from some points configurations which are the singularities of the dual of a quartic curve.
The discrete isoperimetric inequality states that among all n -gons with a fixed area, the regular n -gon has the least perimeter. We prove analogues of the discrete isoperimetric inequality (involving circumradius or inradius) for cyclic…
We show that the copolarity of pseudo-cones has analogous properties as the usual polarity of convex bodies.
In this paper we compute the discrete fundamental groups of warped cones. As an immediate consequence, this allows us to show that there exist coarsely simply-connected expanders and superexpanders. This also provides a strong coarse…
In this paper, we introduce a family of discrete rectangular uniform distributions on the natural numbers-referred to as orthogonal dice-characterized by the property that their means equal their variances. These distributions arise…
We construct a planar homogeneous self-similar measure, with strong separation, dense rotations and dimension greater than $1$, such that there exist lines for which dimension conservation does not hold and the projection of the measure is…
A novel basis of discrete analytic polynomials on a rhombic lattice is introduced and the associated convolution product is studied. A class of discrete analytic functions that are rational with respect to this product is also described.
In this paper, we examine the combinatorial properties of conic arrangements in the complex projective plane that possess certain quasi-homogeneous singularities. First, we introduce a new tool that enables us to characterize the property…
We develop categorical foundations of discrete dynamical systems, aimed at understanding how the structure of the system affects its dynamics. The key technical innovation is the notion of a cycle set, which provides a formal language in…
Constructions and exploration of plane algebraic curves has received a new push with the development of automated methods, whose algorithms are continuously improved and implemented in various software packages. We use them to explore the…
In this pedagogical paper we review the discrete symmetries of the Dirac equation using elementary tools, but in a comparative order: the usual 3 + 1 dimensional case and the 2 + 1 dimensional case. Motivated by new applications of the 2d…
