Let $X$ be a normal projective variety admitting a polarized or int-amplified endomorphism $f$. We list up characteristic properties of such an endomorphism and classify such a variety from the aspects of its singularity, anti-canonical…
Small amplitude inhomogeneous plane waves propagating in any direction in a homogeneously deformed Hadamard material are considered. Conditions for circular polarization are established. The analysis relies on the use of complex vectors (or…
Let $(f, g)$ be a pair of complex analytic functions on a singular analytic space $X$. We give ``the correct'' definition of the relative polar curve of $(f, g)$, and we give a very formal generalization of L\^e's attaching result, which…
We treat the classical notion of convexity in the context of hard real analysis. Definitions of the concept are given in terms of defining functions and quadratic forms, and characterizations are provided of different concrete notions of…
This paper deals with skew ruled surfaces in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{E}^{3}$ which are equipped with polar normalizations, that is, relative normalizations such that the relative normal at each point of the ruled surface lies on the…
There are conflicting statements in the literature about the gravitational Faraday rotation of the plane of polarization of polarized electromagnetic radiation travelling through a gravitational wave. This issue is reconsidered using a…
A plane graph is called a rectangular graph if each of its edges can be oriented either horizontally or vertically, each of its interior regions is a four-sided region and all interior regions can be fitted in a rectangular enclosure. Only…
It is well known that the equisingularity class of the general polar of a plane branch is not the same for all branches in a given equisingularity class, but it is the same for sufficiently general ones and depends upon the analytic type of…
We present an algebraic study of the projection of plane curves and twisted cubics in space onto multiple images of pinhole cameras. The Zariski closure of the image of the projection of conics is a conic multiview varieties. Extending…
We give an elementary proof of the fact that any orientable 3-manifold admits a framing (i.e. is parallelizable) and any non-orientable 3-manifold admits a projective framing. The proof uses only basic facts about immersions of surfaces in…
Projective geometry provides the preferred framework for most implementations of Euclidean space in graphics applications. Translations and rotations are both linear transformations in projective geometry, which helps when it comes to…
Given a projective plane $\Sigma$ and a polarity $\theta$ of $\Sigma$, the corresponding polarity graph is the graph whose vertices are the points of $\Sigma$, and two distinct points $p_1$ and $p_2$ are adjacent if $p_1$ is incident to…
The knowledge of the isotropic correlation function of a plane figure is useful to determine the correlation function of the cylinders having the plane figure as right-section and a given height as well as to analyze the out of plane…
Polar varieties have in recent years been used by Bank, Giusti, Heintz, Mbakop, and Pardo, and by Safey El Din and Schost, to find efficient procedures for determining points on all real components of a given non-singular algebraic variety.…
In this paper we fully describe all tropical linear mappings in the tropical projective plane, that is, maps from the tropical plane to itself given by tropical multiplication by an order 3 matrix. An erratum has been added fixing two…
Aligned interstellar grains produce polarized extinction (observed at wavelengths from the far-ultraviolet to the mid-infrared), and polarized thermal emission (observed at far-infrared and submm wavelengths). The grains must be quite…
After recalling the notion of caustics of plane curves and basic equations, we first show the birationality of the caustic map for a general source point S in the plane. Then we prove more generally a theorem for curves D in the projective…
Visibility $V$ and distinguishability $D$ quantify wave-ray duality: $V^2 + D^2 \le 1$. We join them to polarization $P$ via the Polarization Coherence Theorem, a tight equality: $P^2 = V^2 + D^2$.
We study orientifold projections of families of four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1$ toric quiver gauge theories. We restrict to quivers that have the unusual property of being associated with multiple periodic planar diagrams which give rise,…
The circumcircle of a planar convex polygon P is a circle C that passes through all vertices of P. If such a C exists, then P is said to be cyclic. Fix C to have unit radius. While any two angles of a uniform cyclic triangle are negatively…
