In this paper we introduce a discrete integrable system generalizing the discrete (real) cross-ratio system in $S^4$ to complex values of a generalized cross-ratio by considering $S^4$ as a real section of the complex Pl\"ucker quadric,…
It is shown that each integrable mapping is connected with a hierarchical completely integrable sytem of equations of evolution type which are invariant with respect to the transformation described by this mapping.
We present a discrete theory for modeling developable surfaces as quadrilateral meshes satisfying simple angle constraints. The basis of our model is a lesser known characterization of developable surfaces as manifolds that can be…
Some geometry on non-singular cubic curves, mainly over finite fields, is surveyed. Such a curve has 9,3,1 or 0 points of inflexion, and cubic curves are classified accordingly. The group structure and the possible numbers of rational…
A `discrete differential manifold' we call a countable set together with an algebraic differential calculus on it. This structure has already been explored in previous work and provides us with a convenient framework for the formulation of…
A systematic study of the discrete second order projective system is presented, complemented by the integrability analysis of the associated multilinear mapping. Moreover, we show how we can obtain third order integrable equations as the…
A Clifford algebra model for M"obius geometry is presented. The notion of Ribaucour pairs of orthogonal systems in arbitrary dimensions is introduced, and the structure equations for adapted frames are derived. These equations are…
A new field of discrete differential geometry is presently emerging on the border between differential and discrete geometry. Whereas classical differential geometry investigates smooth geometric shapes (such as surfaces), and discrete…
Remarkable parallelism between the theory of integrable systems of first-order quasilinear PDE and some old results in projective and affine differential geometry of conjugate nets, Laplace equations, their Bianchi-Baecklund transformations…
Cluster integrable systems are a broad class of integrable systems modelled on bipartite dimer models on the torus. Many discrete integrable dynamics arise by applying sequences of local transformations, which form the cluster modular group…
We propose a natural discretisation scheme for classical projective minimal surfaces. We follow the classical geometric characterisation and classification of projective minimal surfaces and introduce at each step canonical discrete models…
Let A be a line arrangement in the complex projective plane CP2. We define and describe the inclusion map of the boundary manifold --the boundary of a close regular neighborhood of A-- in the exterior of the arrangement. We obtain two…
Piecewise-linear (PL) Morse theory and discrete Morse theory are used in shape analysis tasks to investigate the topological features of discretized spaces. In spite of their common origin in smooth Morse theory, various notions of critical…
An extension of the algebraic-geometric method for nonlinear integrable PDE's is shown to lead to new piecewise smooth weak solutions of a class of $N$-component systems of nonlinear evolution equations. This class includes, among others,…
The outlines of a "Galois theory" for bimeromorphic geometry is here developed, via the study of model-theoretic definable binding groups in the theory CCM of compact complex spaces. As an application, a structure theorem about principal…
We prove that the set of non-degenerate second order maximally superintegrable systems in the complex Euclidean plane carries a natural structure of a projective variety, equipped with a linear isometry group action. This is done by…
We detail the theory of Discrete Riemann Surfaces. It takes place on a cellular decomposition of a surface, together with its Poincar\'e dual, equipped with a discrete conformal structure. A lot of theorems of the continuous theory follow…
The combination of words ``discrete curvature'' is only an apparent contradiction. In this survey we describe curvature notions associated with polygons, polyhedral surfaces, and with abstract polyhedral manifolds. Several theorems about…
This paper is a summary of the theory of discrete embeddings introduced in [5]. A discrete embedding is an algebraic procedure associating a numerical scheme to a given ordinary differential equation. Lagrangian systems possess a…
We present a procedure which allows one to integrate explicitly the class of checkerboard IC-nets which has recently been introduced as a generalisation of incircular (IC) nets. The latter class of privileged congruences of lines in the…
