We investigate plane curves intersecting in at most two unibranched points to study the algebraic exceptional set appearing in standard conjectures of diophantine and hyperbolic geometry. Our first result compares the local geometry of two…

Let $S$ be a set of $n$ points in the plane in general position. Two line segments connecting pairs of points of $S$ cross if they have an interior point in common. Two vertex disjoint geometric graphs with vertices in $S$ cross if there…

Let $p_1,p_2,p_3$ be three distinct points in the plane, and, for $i=1,2,3$, let $\mathcal C_i$ be a family of $n$ unit circles that pass through $p_i$. We address a conjecture made by Sz\'ekely, and show that the number of points incident…

Let $\D$ be a set of $n$ pairwise disjoint unit balls in $\R^d$ and $P$ the set of their center points. A hyperplane $\Hy$ is an \emph{$m$-separator} for $\D$ if each closed halfspace bounded by $\Hy$ contains at least $m$ points from $P$.…

An oval $O$ of a plane real algebraic quartic curve $S$ is called a snake coiling around a real curve $C_k$ of degree $k$ if $O\cup\mathbb{R}C_k$ is isotopic to $O'\cup\mathbb{R}C_k$, where $O'$ is the boundary of a thickening of the…

In the finite dimensional case, mean-type mappings, their invariant means, relations between the uniqueness of invariant means and convergence of orbits of the mapping, are considered. In particular it is shown, that the uniqueness of an…

A $t$-spanner of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a subgraph $H=(V,E')$ that contains a $uv$-path of length at most $t$ for every $uv\in E$. It is known that every $n$-vertex graph admits a $(2k-1)$-spanner with $O(n^{1+1/k})$ edges for $k\geq 1$. This…

Intersection bodies represent a remarkable class of geometric objects associated with sections of star bodies and invoking Radon transforms, generalized cosine transforms, and the relevant Fourier analysis. The main focus of this article is…

Let I = (F_1,...,F_r) be a homogeneous ideal of R = k[x_0,...,x_n] generated by a regular sequence of type (d_1,...,d_r). We give an elementary proof for an explicit description of the graded Betti numbers of I^s for any s \geq 1. These…

We show that the detection of geometric intersection in an arbitrary representation of the mapping class group of surface implies the injectivity of that representation up to center, and vice versa. As an application, we discuss the…

We study hyperplane covering problems for finite grid-like structures in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We call a set $\mathcal{C}$ of points in $\mathbb{R}^2$ a conical grid if the line $y = a_i$ intersects $\mathcal{C}$ in exactly $i$ points, for some…

We study the relation between the type of a double point of a plane curve and the curvilinear 0-dimensional subschemes of the curve at the point. An Algorithm related to a classical procedure for the study of double points via osculating…

We investigate the asymptotic behavior of Halpern-type iterations applied to quasi-nonexpansive operators arising in best approximation problems over the intersection of finitely many closed convex sets in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Assuming a local…

Let $G$ be an intersection graph of $n$ geometric objects in the plane. We show that a maximum matching in $G$ can be found in $O(\rho^{3\omega/2}n^{\omega/2})$ time with high probability, where $\rho$ is the density of the geometric…

Suppose $A \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times n}$ is invertible and we are looking for the solution of $Ax = b$. Given an initial guess $x_1 \in \mathbb{R}$, we show that by reflecting through hyperplanes generated by the rows of $A$, we can generate…

The combinatorics of certain osculating lattice paths is studied, and a relationship with oscillating tableaux is obtained. More specifically, the paths being considered have fixed start and end points on respectively the lower and right…

For a smooth plane cubic $B$, we count curves $C$ of degree $d$ such that the normalizations of $C\backslash B$ are isomorphic to $\Bbb A^1$, for $d\leq7$ (for $d=7$ under some assumption). We also count plane rational quartic curves…
