Poncelet's theorem states that if there exists an n-sided polygon which is inscribed in a given conic C and circumscribed about another conic D, then there are infinitely many such n-gons. Proofs of this theorem that we are aware of,…
We provide a companion to the recent Benyi-Curgus generalization of the well-known theorems of Ceva and Menelaus, so as to characterize both the collinearity of points and the concurrence of lines determined by six points on the edges of a…
A formula for the radii and positions of four circles in the plane for an arbitrary linearly independent circle configuration is found. Among special cases is the recent extended Descartes Theorem on the Descartes configuration and an…
The Newton line and the associated theorems by Newton and Gauss for tetragons and quadrilaterals are closely linked to some other theorems of Euclidean geometry: a theorem by Bocher on the existence of a nine-point conic of a quadrangle, a…
John Conway's Circle Theorem is a gem of plane geometry. The six points formed by continuing the sides of a triangle beyond every vertex by the length of its opposite side, are concyclic. The theorem has attracted several proofs. We present…
When considering geometry, one might think of working with lines and circles on a flat plane as in Euclidean geometry. However, doing geometry in other spaces is possible, as the existence of spherical and hyperbolic geometry demonstrates.…
The aim of this paper is to establish some metrical coincidence and common fixed point theorems with an arbitrary relation under an implicit contractive condition which is general enough to cover a multitude of well known contraction…
Chasles' Quadrilateral Theorem is a classical statement about four tangents to a conic that simultaneously circumscribe a circle. In its various formulations, it relates the concurrence of certain lines to the existence of confocal conics…
We state and prove a new closure theorem closely related to the classical closure theorems of Poncelet and Steiner. Along the way, we establish a number of theorems concerning conic sections.
The Marden theorem of geometry of polynomials and the great Poncelet theorem from projective geometry of conics by their classical beauty occupy very special places. Our main aim is to present a strong and unexpected relationship between…
We present a fixed point theorem on topological cylinders in normed linear spaces for maps satisfying a property of stretching a space along paths. This result is a generalization of a similar theorem obtained by D. Papini and F. Zanolin.…
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…
The fixed-point theory and its applications to various areas of science are well known. In this paper we present some existence and uniqueness theorems for fixed circles of self-mappings on metric spaces with geometric interpretation. We…
The subject of limit curve theorems in Lorentzian geometry is reviewed. A general limit curve theorem is formulated which includes the case of converging curves with endpoints and the case in which the limit points assigned since the…
Vogt's theorem, concerning boundary angles of a convex arc with monotonic curvature (spiral arc), is taken as a starting point to establish basic properties of spirals. The theorem is expanded by removing requirements of convexity and…
We prove Euler's theorem of number theory developing an argument based on quandles. A quandle is an algebraic structure whose axioms mimic the three Reidemeister moves of knot theory.
It is conjectured that if a finite set of points in the plane contains many collinear triples then there is some structure in the set. We are going to show that under some combinatorial conditions such pointsets contain special…
We establish fixed point theorems for nonlinear contractions on a metric space (not essentially complete) endowed with an arbitrary binary relation. Our results extend, generalize, modify and unify several known results especially those…
In this paper, we prove coincidence and common fixed points results under nonlinear contractions on a metric space equipped with an arbitrary binary relation. Our results extend, generalize, modify and unify several known results especially…
In this paper, we establish some new fixed point theorems and coincidence point theorems for essential distances and $e^{0}$-metrics which generalize and improve Berinde-Berinde's fixed point theorem, Mizoguchi-Takahashi's fixed point…
