In this article we introduce a general definition of the concept of center of an $n$-gon, for $n\geq 3$, generalizing the idea of C. Kimberling for triangle. We define centers associated to functions instead of to geometrical properties. We…
A line field on a manifold is a smooth map which assigns a tangent line to all but a finite number of points of the manifold. As such, it can be seen as a generalization of vector fields. They model a number of geometric and physical…
Let $(M^4,\bar{g})$ be an Einstein manifold, where $M^4$ is a smooth, closed, oriented four-manifold $M^4$ and $\bar{g}$ has positive Einstein constant. Given a point $0 \in M^4$, let $G$ denote the (positive) Green's function $G$ of the…
We study cosmological polytopes induced by Erd\H{o}s--R\'enyi random graphs in a high-dimensional regime. These graph-based lattice polytopes form a natural model of random lattice polytopes in which geometric features are determined by the…
Makeev conjectured that every constant-width body is inscribed in the dual difference body of a regular simplex. We prove that homologically, there are an odd number of such circumscribing bodies in dimension 3, and therefore geometrically…
The astronomical observations indicate that the universe expands with acceleration and it has a finite event horizon. The recent CMB observations confirm the universe is homogeneous, isotropic and asymptotically flat. The total…
Approximate lattices are aperiodic generalisations of lattices of locally compact groups that were first studied in seminal work of Yves Meyer. They are defined as those uniformly discrete approximate subgroups (symmetric subsets stable…
Let $K$ be a smooth convex set with volume one in $\BBR^d$. Choose $n$ random points in $K$ independently according to the uniform distribution. The convex hull of these points, denoted by $K_n$, is called a {\it random polytope}. We prove…
Filliman duality expresses (the characteristic measure of) a convex polytope P containing the origin as an alternating sum of simplices that share supporting hyperplanes with P. The terms in the alternating sum are given by a triangulation…
We obtain a Central Limit Theorem for closed Riemannian manifolds, clarifying along the way the geometric meaning of some of the hypotheses in Bhattacharya and Lin's Omnibus Central Limit Theorem for Fr\'echet means. We obtain our CLT…
The theory of orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle is developed for a general class of weights leading to systems of recurrence relations and derivatives of the polynomials and their associated functions, and to functional-difference…
The classical Euler--Poinsot case of the rigid body dynamics admits a class of simple but non-trivial integrable generalizations, which modify the Poisson equations describing the motion of the body in space. These generalizations possess…
A rather non-standard quantum representation of the canonical commutation relations of quantum mechanics systems, known as the polymer representation has gained some attention in recent years, due to its possible relation with Planck scale…
In this study, we introduce the notion of $PL_\delta$-homeomorphisms of $\mathbb{R}^n$. Furthermore, we provide a combinatorial criterion reliant on the vertices and edges of simplicial structures, to determine whether a piecewise-linear…
Intrinsic volumes, which generalize both Euler characteristic and Lebesgue volume, are important properties of $d$-dimensional sets. A random cubical complex is a union of unit cubes, each with vertices on a regular cubic lattice,…
We extend the old definition of the Apollonius circle in such a way that it results in the same curve in Euclidean geometry but will be more convenient in hyperbolic and spherical geometries. We show that there exists an Apollonius circle…
The current cosmological model ($\Lambda$CDM) with the underlying FLRW metric relies on the assumption of local isotropy, hence homogeneity of the Universe. Difficulties arise when one attempts to justify this model as an average…
We show that gravity together with curved spacetime can emerge, at the microscopic scale, from a U(1) gauge field. The gauge boson that carries gravity, of elementary particles, is proved to be a spin one massless and electrically neutral…
We study the canonical description of the axisymmetric vacuum in 2+1 dimensional gravity, treating Einstein's gravity as a Chern Simons gauge theory on a manifold with the restriction that the dreibein is invertible. Our treatment is in the…
We prove for generalisations of quasi-homogeneous $n$-body problems with center of mass zero and $n$-body problems in spaces of negative constant Gaussian curvature that if the masses and rotation are fixed, there exists, for every order of…
