A coregular space is a representation of an algebraic group for which the ring of polynomial invariants is free. In this paper, we show that the orbits of many coregular irreducible representations where the number of invariants is at least…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a field with $q$ elements. In this note, we study some generalized arcs, that is, sets of $\mathbb{F}_q$-points in the projective plane $\mathbb{P}^2(\mathbb{F}_q)$ such that no six of them are on a conic. First, we…

We consider an over-determined Falconer type problem on $(k+1)$-point configurations in the plane using the group action framework introduced in \cite{GroupAction}. We define the area type of a $(k+1)$-point configuration in the plane to be…

In this paper, we are concerned with the study of the dimension theory of tensor products of algebras over a field $k$. We introduce and investigate the notion of generalized AF-domain (GAF-domain for short) and prove that any $k$-algebra…

Let $K$ be a convex body in an affine chart of the $n$ dimensional real Projective space $\mathbb{RP}^n$, $n \geq 3$, let $H$ be a hyperplane which is not a support hyperplane of $K$ and let $p_1,p_2 \in \mathbb{RP}^n \setminus H$ be two…

We consider the set of points chosen randomly, independently and uniformly in the $d$-dimensional spherical layer. A set of points is called $1$-convex if all its points are vertices of the convex hull of this set. In \cite{3} an estimate…

One of the general problems in algebraic geometry is to determine algorithmically whether or not a given geometric object, defined by explicit polynomial equations (e.g. a curve or a surface), satisfies a given property (e.g. has…

We generalize the classic definition of Delaunay triangulation and prove that for a locally finite and coarsely dense generic point set, $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$, the $d$-simplices whose vertices belong to $A$ and whose circumscribed…

Let $K\subset\mathbb S^{d-1}$ be a convex spherical body. Denote by $\Delta(K)$ the distance between two random points in $K$ and denote by $\sigma(K)$ the length of a random chord of $K$. We explicitly express the distribution of…

Answering Tarski's plank problem, Bang showed in 1951 that it is impossible to cover a convex body $K \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ with $d \geq 1$ by planks whose total width is less than the minimal width $w(K)$ of $K$. In 2003, A. Bezdek asked…

It has been known for almost 200 years that some angles cannot be trisected by straightedge and compass alone. This paper studies the set of such angles as well as its complement $\mathcal{T}$, both regarded as subsets of the unit circle…

We give a complete characterization of all isoperimetric sets contained in a domain of the Euclidean plane, that is bounded by a Jordan curve and satisfies a no-neck property. Further, we prove that the isoperimetric profile of such domain…

We study the medial axis of a set $K$ in Euclidean space (the set of points in space with more than one closest point in $K$) from a "coarse" and "quantitative" perspective. We show that on "most" balls $B(x,r)$ in the complement of $K$,…

Given a set $S$ of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, a $k$-set is a subset of $k$ points of $S$ that can be strictly separated by a hyperplane from the remaining $n-k$ points. Similarly, one may consider $k$-facets, which are hyperplanes that…

We present a streamlined proof of K. Ball's symmetric plank theorem in $\mathbb{R}^d$, which solves the affine plank problem raised by Th. Bang for symmetric convex bodies.

The lack of a uniformization theorem in several complex variables leads to a desire to classify all of the simply connected domains. We use established computational methods and a localization technique to generalize a recently-published…

We consider planar curved strictly convex domains with no or very weak smoothness assumptions and prove sharp bounds for square-functions associated to the lattice point discrepancy.

For any sequence of properly convex domains in the real projective plane such that the zeros of Pick differentials have bounded multiplicity and get further and further apart, we determined all Hausdorff limit domains that one can obtain…

We give upper bounds on the number of exceptional radial projections of arbitrary subsets of vector spaces over finite fields. Our bounds do not depend on the dimension of the ambient space. Let $\mathbb{F}_q^d$ be the $d$-dimensional…

We consider the reflection of non-polarized radiation from the point-like sources above the accretion discs both the optically thick and optically thin. We investigate the dependence of the polarization of reflected radiation on the…
