The class of $W$-congruences is a central object of Projective Differential Geometry. Nevertheless, their singularities has not been extensively studied. In this paper we prove a characterization of $W$-congruences that allow us to study…
We study relations of some classes of $k$-convex, $k$-visible bodies in Euclidean spaces. We introduce and study \textrm{circular projections} in normed linear spaces and classes of bodies related with families of such maps, in particular,…
The point-plane incidence theorem states that the number of incidences between $n$ points and $m\geq n$ planes in the projective three-space over a field $F$, is $$O\left(m\sqrt{n}+ m k\right),$$ where $k$ is the maximum number of collinear…
We formulate an isoperimetric deformation of curves on the Minkowski plane, which is governed by the defocusing mKdV equation. Two classes of exact solutions to the defocusing mKdV equation are also presented in terms of the $\tau$…
The real projective plane has three well know isomorphic constructions: the extended euclidean plane, unit (hemi)sphere, and three dimensional vector space over the reals. In this paper we find the isomorphisms that map between these three…
Given $mp$ different $p$-planes in general position in $(m+p)$-dimensional space, a classical problem is to ask how many $p$-planes intersect all of them. For example when $m = p = 2$, this is precisely the question of "lines meeting four…
In this paper we review the known facts on isometries of Minkowski geometries and prove some new results on them. We give the normal forms of two special classes of operators and also characterize the isometry group of Minkowski $3$-spaces…
It is well known that a rigid motion of the Euclidean plane can be written as the composition of at most three reflections. It is perhaps not so widely known that a similar result holds for Euclidean space in any number of dimensions. The…
It is shown that the twisted sector spectrum, as well as the associated Chern-Simons interactions, can be determined on M-theory orbifold fixed planes that do not admit gravitational anomalies. This is demonstrated for the seven-planes…
Erd\H{o}s-Beck theorem states that $n$ points in the plane with at most $n-x$ points collinear define at least $c xn$ lines for some positive constant $c$. In this paper, we will present two ways to extend this result to higher dimensions.…
Two averaging algorithms are considered which are intended for choosing an optimal plane and an optimal circle approximating a group of points in three-dimensional Euclidean space.
Let $x$ and $y$ be two unit vectors in a normed plane $\mathbb{R}^2$. We say that $x$ is Birkhoff orthogonal to $y$ if the line through $x$ in the direction $y$ supports the unit disc. A B-measure (Fankh\"anel 2011) is an angular measure…
In this paper, we first establish an equivalence theorem of Minkowski spaces by using results in centro-affine differential geometry. As an application in Finsler geometry, we gives some new characterizations of Berwald spaces.
A well-known object in classical Euclidean geometry is the circumcenter of a triangle, i.e., the point that is equidistant from all vertices. The purpose of this paper is to provide a systematic study of the circumcenter of sets containing…
We review part of the classical theory of curves and surfaces in $3$-dimensional Lorentz-Minkowski space. We focus in spacelike surfaces with constant mean curvature pointing the differences and similarities with the Euclidean space.
It was proved in the first part of this work \cite{0} that Stolarsky's invariance principle, known previously for point distributions on the Euclidean spheres \cite{33}, can be extended to the real, complex, and quaternionic projective…
In this paper, extending the work of Gal'perin (Comm. Math. Phys. 154: 63-84, 1993), we investigate generalizations of the concepts of centroids and static equilibrium points of a convex body in spherical, hyperbolic and normed spaces. In…
In this survey we review useful tools that naturally arise in the study of pointwise convergence problems in analysis, ergodic theory and probability. We will pay special attention to quantitative aspects of pointwise convergence phenomena…
A mechanical linkage is a mechanism made of rigid rods linked together by flexible joints, in which some vertices are fixed and others may move. The partial configuration space of a linkage is the set of all the possible positions of a…
In this paper we show that every homeomorphism of the plane with the topological shadowing property has a fixed point. Also, we show that a linear isomorphism of an Euclidean space has the topological shadowing property if and only if the…
