Cone spherical metrics, defined on compact Riemann surfaces, are conformal metrics with constant curvature one and finitely many cone singularities. Such a metric is termed \textit{reducible} if a developing map of the metric has monodromy…

We investigate metric projections and distance functions referring to convex bodies in finite-dimensional normed spaces. For this purpose we identify the vector space with its dual space by using, instead of the usual identification via the…

This paper is a follow-up of a previous work in which we show that, for a $3$-edge connected tropical curve $\Gamma$, the existence of a divisor of degree $3$ and Baker-Norine rank at least $1$ in $\Gamma$ is equivalent to the existence of…

We quickly review and make some comments on the concept of convexity in metric spaces due to Takahashi. Then we introduce a concept of convex structure based convexity to functions on these spaces and refer to it as $W-$convexity.…

We study the tropicalization of intersections of plane curves, under the assumption that they have the same tropicalization. We show that the set of tropical divisors that arise in this manner is a pure dimensional balanced polyhedral…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with unity 1, and $ G(V,E)$ be a simple, connected, nontrivial graph. Let $d(a,c)$ be the distance between the vertices $a$ and $c $ in $G$. An undirected zero divisor graph of a ring $R$ is denoted by…

This article studies generalizations of (matrix) convexity, including partial convexity and biconvexity, under the umbrella of $\Gamma$-convexity. Here $\Gamma$ is a tuple of free symmetric polynomials determining the geometry of a…

A resolving set for a graph $\Gamma$ is a collection of vertices $S$, chosen so that for each vertex $v$, the list of distances from $v$ to the members of $S$ uniquely specifies $v$. The metric dimension of $\Gamma$ is the smallest size of…
