We provide a new formulation and proof of the triangle altitudes theorem in hyperbolic plane geometry, together with an easily computed discriminant to distinguish between different basic configurations of the altitudes of such a triangle.
We systematically investigate properties of various triangle centers (such as orthocenter or incenter) located on the four faces of a tetrahedron. For each of six types of tetrahedra, we examine over 100 centers located on the four faces of…
If we label the vertices of a triangle with 1, 2 and 4, and the orthocentre with 7, then any of the four numbers 1, 2, 4, 7 is the nim-sum of the other three and is their orthocentre. Regard the triangle as an orthocentric quadrangle.…
A long-standing, unanswered question regarding Euclid's Elements concerns the absence of a theorem for the concurrence of the altitudes of a triangle, and the possible reasons for this omission. In the centuries following Euclid, a…
If the four triangular facets of a tetrahedron can be partitioned into pairs having the same area, then the triangles in each pair must be congruent to one another. A Heron-style formula is then derived for the volume of a tetrahedron…
A tetrahedron is called a path tetrahedron, if it has three mutually orthogonal edges that do not intersect at a single point. A tetrahedron is called a 4-ball tetrahedron, if there exists a sphere tangent to all its edges. We derive…
Two tetrahedra are called orthologic if the lines through vertices of one and perpendicular to corresponding faces of the other are intersecting. This is equivalent to the orthogonality of non-corresponding edges. We prove that the…
Octupolar tensors are third order, completely symmetric and traceless tensors. Whereas in 2D an octupolar tensor has the same symmetries as an equilateral triangle and can ultimately be identified with a vector in the plane, the symmetries…
It is conjectured that every cusped hyperbolic 3-manifold admits a geometric triangulation, i.e. it is decomposed into positive volume ideal hyperbolic tetrahedra. Here, we show that sufficiently highly twisted knots admit a geometric…
The author proposes a new geometry in this book. The author named this new geometry Intercenter Geometry. Intercenter Geometry is different from traditional Euclidean geometry and analytic geometry (coordinate geometry). The idea of…
In the article we prove some inequalities that contain relations between altitudes and medians in triangle. At least one of these inequalities has not been considered in the literature before and the main theorem has also not been proved…
We investigate several topics of triangle geometry in the elliptic and in the extended hyperbolic plane, such as: centers based on orthogonality, centers related to circumcircles and incircles, radical centers and centers of similitude,…
We use a probabilistic interpretation of solid angles to generalize the well-known fact that the inner angles of a triangle sum to 180 degrees. For the 3-dimensional case, we show that the sum of the solid inner vertex angles of a…
The tetrahedron equation arises as a generalization of the famous Yang--Baxter equation to the 2+1-dimensional quantum field theory and the 3-dimensional statistical mechanics. Very little is still known about its solutions. Here a…
The space of shapes of a polyhedron with given total angles less than 2\pi at each of its n vertices has a Kaehler metric, locally isometric to complex hyperbolic space CH^{n-3}. The metric is not complete: collisions between vertices take…
A three-dimensional orthoscheme is defined as a tetrahedron whose base is a right-angled triangle and an edge joining the apex and a non-right-angled vertex is perpendicular to the base. A generalization, called complete orthoschemes, of…
We classify, in terms of topology of highest arcs, low height non-simple geodesics on the modular hyperbolic punctured sphere with three elliptic fixed points of order two. Of eight possible types, exactly one consists of geodesics that…
Atkinson [2] found a sequence of three-dimensional hyperbolic polyhedra whose dihedral angles are $\pi /3$. In this paper, we construct another sequence of such polyhedra. We also determine the volumes of some of these polyhedra.
A hypercomplex structure on a differentiable manifold consists of three integrable almost complex structures that satisfy quaternionic relations. If, in addition, there exists a metric on the manifold which is Hermitian with respect to the…
We show that among any $n$ points in the unit cube one can find a triangle of area at most $n^{-2/3-c}$ for some absolute constant $c >0$. This gives the first non-trivial upper bound for the three-dimensional version of Heilbronn's…
