We consider rings whose one-sided ideals are close to automorphism-invariant modules. We study rings in which every (finitely generated) right ideal is automorphism invariant and rings in which every right ideal is a finite direct sum of…
Magic squares are well-known arrangements of integers with common row, column, and diagonal sums. Various other magic shapes have been proposed, but triangles have been somewhat overlooked. We introduce certain triangular arrangements of…
From a geometric viewpoint, billiard trajectories and geodesics are related by mutual approximation results. In one direction, it is known that every geodesic curve in the boundary of a smooth convex body can be approximated by a sequence…
We consider ruled surfaces in the three-dimensional Euclidean space and some geometrically distinguished families of curves on them whose normal curvature has a concrete form. The aim of this paper is to find and classify all ruled surfaces…
Consider a compact manifold $N$ (with or without boundary) of dimension $n$. Positive $m$-intermediate curvature interpolates between positive Ricci curvature ($m = 1$) and positive scalar curvature ($m = n-1$), and it is obstructed on…
Tangles of loops which approximate an aspect of the Kerr-Newman black hole metrics at large scales compared to the Planck length are constructed. The physical aspect the tangles approximate is discussed. This construction may be useful in…
We describe rings over which every right module is almost injective. We give a description of rings over which every simple module is a almost projective.
We have derived long series expansions for the perimeter generating functions of the radius of gyration of various polygons with a convexity constraint. Using the series we numerically find simple (algebraic) exact solutions for the…
We discover some very general configuration results for constructing area-minimizing cones. In particular, given any closed minimal submanifold in some Euclidean sphere, every cone over the minimal product of sufficiently many copies of the…
Can any secrets still be shed by that much studied, uniquely integrable, Elliptic Billiard? Starting by examining the family of 3-periodic trajectories and the loci of their Triangular Centers, one obtains a beautiful and variegated gallery…
In this paper, spindle starshaped sets are introduced and investigated, which apart from normalization form an everywhere dense subfamily within the family of starshaped sets. We focus on proving spindle starshaped analogues of recent…
The present article includes the enumeration of $n$-polygons with two certain symmetry properties: For a number $3m$ of vertices, we count the $3m$-polygons with $m$ symmetry axes and the $3m$-polygons, that match after three elementary…
It is often assumed that a warped galaxy can be modeled by a set of rings. This paper verifies numerically the validity of this assumption by the study of periodic orbits populating a heavy self-gravitating warped disk. The phase space…
It is well established that many galaxies, like our Milky Way, exhibit spiral patterns. The entire galactic disc rotates about the galactic centre with different speeds; higher closer to the centre, lower at greater distances - that is,…
Let $S_{g}$ denote the closed orientable surface of genus $g$. In joint work with Huang, the first author constructed exponentially-many (in $g$) mapping class group orbits of pairs of simple closed curves whose complement is a single…
We prove that the golden angle (an angle that divides the circle in the golden ratio) is not constructible using straightedge and compass.
This paper deals with the gravitational potential of a homogeneous torus with elliptical cross-section. We present a new expression for its gravitational potential which is valid in any point of the space, obtained by modeling the torus…
We give sharp sectional curvature estimates for complete immersed cylindrically bounded $m$-submanifolds $\phi:M\to N\times\mathbb{R}^{\ell}$, $n+\ell\leq 2m-1$ provided that either $\phi$ is proper with the second fundamental form with…
In this article, we consider the structure of graded rings, not necessarily commutative nor with unity, and study the graded weakly prime ideals. We investigate the graded rings in which all graded ideals are graded weakly prime. Several…
In a series of papers, we propose a theory to explain the formation and properties of rings and spirals in barred galaxies. The building blocks of these structures are orbits guided by the manifolds emanating from the unstable Lagrangian…
