In the present paper we generalise transference theorems from the classical geometry of numbers to the geometry of numbers over the ring of adeles of a number field. To this end we introduce a notion of polarity for adelic convex bodies.
We prove that the geodesic complexity of a regular tetrahedron exceeds its topological complexity by 1 or 2. The proof involves a careful analysis of minimal geodesics on the tetrahedron.
The purpose of this comment is to clarify two points related to the Dirac equation. First, the Lorentz structure of the potential and its connection with the Klein paradox. Second, the connection between the number of space dimensions and…
In this {\bf draft version} we prove inhomogeneous Strichartz estimates with spherical symmetry in the abstract setting via duality arguments. Then we derive some new explicit estimates in the context of the wave equation. This allows us to…
A variational principle is applied to 4D Euclidean space provided with a tensor refractive index, defining what can be seen as 4-dimensional optics (4DO). The geometry of such space is analysed, making no physical assumptions of any kind.…
A re-calculation of a known family of formulas of PI is carried out, revisiting the old Archimedes' algorithm. This allows to identify a general family equation and three new simple formulas of Pi in terms of the golden ratio PHI in the…
There are two basic angles associated with a pair of linear subspaces: the Diximier angle and the Friedrichs angle. The Dixmier angle of the pair of orthogonal complements is the same as the Dixmier angle of the original pair provided that…
A natural extension of Heron's 2000 year old formula for the area of a triangle to the volume of a tetrahedron is presented. This gives the fourth power of the volume as a polynomial in six simple rational functions of the areas of its four…
The generalized second-order partial derivatives of 1/r, where r is the radial distance in 3D, are obtained using a result of the potential theory of classical analysis. Some non-spherical regularization alternatives to the standard…
We compute the analytic torsion of a cone over a sphere of dimension 1, 2, and 3, and we conjecture a general formula for the cone over an odd dimensional sphere.
This paper gives a detailed derivation of the surface of a tri-axial ellipsoid. The general result is in terms of the elliptic integrals of the first and second kind. It is in checked for all special cases included and the corresponding…
We introduce a novel formulation for geometry on discrete points. It is based on a universal differential calculus, which gives a geometric description of a discrete set by the algebra of functions. We expand this mathematical framework so…
This paper develops a complete foundational treatment of simplicial complexes from Euclidean spaces through geometric realizations, emphasizing concrete computations, examples, and practical verification methods. Beginning with finite point…
Kippenhahn discovered that the numerical range of a complex square matrix is the convex hull of a plane real algebraic curve. Here, we present an example of a convex set, which has a similar algebraic description as the numerical range,…
The use of complexified quaternions and $i$-complex geometry in formulating the Dirac equation allows us to give interesting geometric interpretations hidden in the conventional matrix-based approach.
We prove a theorem on the relationships between the lengths of sides of a spherical quadrilateral with three right angles. They are analogous to the relationships in the Lambert quadrilateral in the hyperbolic plane. We apply this theorem…
This paper presents formulae for calculation the solid angle of intersecting spherical caps, conical surfaces and polyhedral cones.
We propose a computation of curvature of arbitrary two-dimensional surfaces of three-dimensional objects, which is a contribution to discrete gravity with potential applications in network geometry. We begin by linking each point of the…
We state a general formula to compute the volume of the intersection of the regular $n$-simplex with some $k$-dimensional subspace. It is known that for central hyperplanes the one through the centroid containing $n-1$ vertices gives the…
The Descartes circle theorem states that if four circles are mutually tangent with disjoint intersion, then their curvatures (or "bends) b_j = 1/r_j satisfy the relation (b_1 + b_2 + b_3 + b_4)^2 = 2(b_1^2 + b_2^2 + b_3^2 + b_4^2). We show…
