For complex projective manifolds we introduce polar homology groups, which are holomorphic analogues of the homology groups in topology. The polar k-chains are subvarieties of complex dimension k with meromorphic forms on them, while the…
In this paper, we present a generalization of the Askey-Wilson relations that involves a projective geometry. A projective geometry is defined as follows. Let $h>k\geq 1$ denote integers. Let $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ denote a finite field with $q$…
In this note, we provide explicit expressions for the projections onto the graph of a quadratic polynomial. The projections are obtained by examining the critical points of the associated quartic polynomial, that is, the roots of the cubic…
Despite the intrinsic coupling between electric and magnetic fields in random stationary light, their polarization properties are not mutually determined. A complete second-order description thus necessitates a joint electromagnetic…
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. If…
Convex hexagons that can tile the plane have been classified into three types. For the generic cases (not necessarily convex) of the three types and two other special cases, we classify tilings of the plane under the assumption that all…
We give a projective proof of the butterfly porism for cyclic quadrilaterals and present a general reversion porism for polygons with an arbitrary number of vertices on a conic. We also investigate projective properties of the porisms.
Polypols are natural generalizations of polytopes, with boundaries given by nonlinear algebraic hypersurfaces. We describe polypols in the plane and in 3-space that admit a unique adjoint hypersurface and study them from an…
There are several remarkable points, defined for polygons and multisets of points in the plane, called centers (such as the centroid). To make possible their study, there exists a formal definition for the concept of center in both cases.…
On a smooth complex projective variety $X$ of dimension $n$, consider an ample vector bundle $\mathcal{E}$ of rank $r \leq n-2$ and an ample line bundle $H$. A numerical character $m_2=m_2(X,\mathcal{E},H)$ of the triplet…
We study cubic rational maps that take lines to plane curves. A complete description of such cubic rational maps concludes the classification of all planarizations, i.e., maps taking lines to plane curves.
We revisit the classification of polarization observables of the cosmic microwave background. There exists a unified approach to the $3 \times 3$ density matrix by which intensity, linear and circular polarization are treated on an equal…
We introduce the notion of a prile of one-sided triangulated categories. Roughly speaking, a prile consists of two one-sided triangulated categories having a common full subcategory which inherits a pretriangulated structure from these…
Projection algorithms are well known for their simplicity and flexibility in solving feasibility problems. They are particularly important in practice due to minimal requirements for software implementation and maintenance. In this work, we…
We demonstrate that the multipoles associated with the density matrix are truly observable quantities that can be unambiguously determined from intensity moments. Given their correct transformation properties, these multipoles are the…
Here we briefly describe some topics along the lines of projective spaces and related geometric constructions connected to linear algebra, which provide fundamental examples in classical geometry and analysis.
We describe the mechanism by which a metamaterial surface can act as an ideal phase-controlled rotatable linear polarizer. With equal-power linearly polarized beams incident on each side of the surface, varying the relative phase rotates…
The main result is a wall crossing formula for central projections defined on submanifolds of a real projective space. Our formula gives the jump of the degree of such a projection when the center of the projection varies. The fact that the…
The coordinate projective line over a field is seen as a groupoid with a further `projection' structure. We investigate conversely to what extent such an, abstractly given, groupoid may be coordinatized by a suitable field constructed out…
A pseudo-triangle is a simple polygon with three convex vertices, and a pseudo-triangulation is a face-to-face tiling of a planar region into pseudo-triangles. Pseudo-triangulations appear as data structures in computational geometry, as…
