We consider the problem of wrapping three-dimensional solid bodies with a given planar sheet of paper, where the paper may be folded or wrinkled but not stretched or torn. We propose a conjecture characterising the maximumvolume solid…
The formula for the area of a rhumb polygon, a polygon whose edges are rhumb lines on an ellipsoid of revolution, is derived and a method is given for computing the area accurately. This paper also points out that standard methods for…
Let $p$ be a real number greater than one and let $G$ be a finitely generated, infinite group. In this paper we introduce the $p$-harmonic boundary of $G$. We then characterize the vanishing of the first reduced $\ell^p$-cohomology of $G$…
Each triangle has three exterior or external circles tangential to the three straight lines containing the three sides of the triangle.Among the preliminaries in this paper, is deriving formulas for the radii of the three exterior circles…
Given an abelian length category A, the Gabriel-Roiter measure with respect to a length function l is characterized as a universal morphism ind(A)-->P of partially ordered sets. The map is defined on the isomorphism classes of…
Let $G$ be a finite 2-generated soluble group and suppose that $\langle a_1,b_1\rangle=\langle a_2,b_2\rangle=G$. If either $G^\prime$ is of odd order or $G^\prime$ is nilpotent, then there exists $b \in G$ with $\langle…
Lattice polytope representation of natural numbers is introduced based on the fundamental theorem of arithmetic. The combinatorial and geometric properties of the polytopes are studied using Polymake and Qhull software. The volume of the…
The geometric algebra is constructed from minimal raw materials.
We indicate that Heron's formula (which relates the square of the area of a triangle to a quartic function of its edge lengths) can be interpreted as a scissors congruence in 4-dimensional space. In the process of demonstrating this, we…
Cantor's diagonal method is traditionally used to prove the uncountability of the set of all infinite binary sequences. This paper analyzes the expressive limits of this method. It is shown that under any constructive application --…
Granular space-time posits that everything can be expressed as a function of space-time and matter. And this includes the quantum wave function {\Psi} . To give a geometric interpretation of {\Psi} , we first need to examine time. The fact…
We describe here how planetary ephemerides are built in the framework of General Relativity and how they can be used to test alternative theories. We focus on the definition of the reference frame (space and time) in which the planetary…
In this paper we provide a geometric condition satisfied by certain closed subsets of the Riemann sphere which implies that their hyperbolic convex hulls in $\mathbb{H}^3$ have infinite volume. As a corollary, we characterize continua in…
We use the Tolman metric to describe gravitational collapse of a sphere of a fluid without pressure in spacetime with the Hubble parameter $H$ related to the cosmological constant. We show that the largest radius of a galaxy formed from…
In the article we consider the composite conformal map which maps annulus to infinite region with symmetric hole and nearly circular hole. It is shown that such transformation is good if the distance between centers of holes are large or…
In this paper we pursue a new technique to search for evidence of a finite Universe, making use of a spherical mexican-hat wavelet decomposition of the microwave background fluctuations. Using the information provided by the wavelet…
Chapter 1 deals with the problem of the existence of an upper/lower envelope from a convex cone or, more generally, a convex set for functions on the projective limit of vector lattices with values in the completion of the Kantorovich space…
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 solution of Einstein's field equations in Cosmological General Relativity (CGR), where the Galaxy is at the center of a finite yet bounded spherically symmetrical isotropic gravitational field, is identical with the unbounded solution.…
We discuss counting problems linked to finite versions of Cantor's diagonal of infinite tableaux. We extend previous results of [2] by refining an equivalence relation that reduces significantly the exhaustive generation. New enumerative…
