There is a growing interest in developing covariance functions for processes on the surface of a sphere due to wide availability of data on the globe. Utilizing the one-to-one mapping between the Euclidean distance and the great circle…
A celebrated result of Legendre and Gauss determines which integers can be represented as a sum of three squares, and for those it is typically the case that there are many ways of doing so. These different representations give collections…
Quadratic points of a surface in the projective 3-space are the points which can be exceptionally well approximated by a quadric. They are also singularities of a 3-web in the elliptic part and of a line field in the hyperbolic part of the…
To any $k$-dimensional subspace of $\mathbb Q^n$ one can naturally associate a point in the Grassmannian ${\rm Gr}_{n,k}(\mathbb R)$ and two shapes of lattices of rank $k$ and $n-k$ respectively. These lattices originate by intersecting the…
Following S\"odergren, we consider a collection of random variables on the space $X_n$ of unimodular lattices in dimension $n$: Normalizations of the angles between the $N = N(n)$ shortest vectors in a random unimodular lattice, and the…
Gradient vector fields are fundamental objects from both theoretical and practical perspectives, since various phenomena can be modeled within this framework. The ``moduli space'' of such vector fields provides the foundation for describing…
We prove an effective version of a result due to Einsiedler, Mozes, Shah and Shapira who established the equidistribution of primitive rational points on expanding horospheres in the space of unimodular lattices in at least $3$ dimensions.…
We show that Euclidean geometry in suitably high dimension can be expressed as a theory of orthogonality of subspaces with fixed dimensions and fixed dimension of their meet.
We provide a lower value for the volume of a unit vector field tangent to an antipodally Euclidean sphere $\mathbb{S}^2$ depending on the length of an ellipse determined by the indexes of its singularities. In addition, for minimizing…
Let $\Lambda$ be any integral lattice in Euclidean space. It has been shown that for every integer $n>0$, there is a hypersphere that passes through exactly $n$ points of $\Lambda$. Using this result, we introduce new lattice invariants and…
A set of points in d-dimensional Euclidean space is almost equidistant if among any three points of the set, some two are at distance 1. We show that an almost-equidistant set in $\mathbb{R}^d$ has cardinality $O(d^{4/3})$.
We establish upper bounds for the size of two-distance sets in Euclidean space and spherical two-distance sets. The main recipe for obtaining upper bounds is the spectral method. We construct Seidel matrices to encode the distance relations…
We show that large subsets of vector spaces over finite fields determine certain point configurations with prescribed distance structure. More specifically, we consider the complete graph with vertices as the points of $A \subseteq…
We prove that for solutions of the Euler equation on the sphere, the vorticity gradient can grow at most double-exponentially in time, and we show that this upper bound is sharp by constructing explicit solutions with odd symmetry that…
In this paper we study the geometric discrepancy of explicit constructions of uniformly distributed points on the two-dimensional unit sphere. We show that the spherical cap discrepancy of random point sets, of spherical digital nets and of…
Working in univalent foundations, we investigate the symmetries of spheres, i.e., the types of the form $\mathbb{S}^n = \mathbb{S}^n$. The case of the circle has a slick answer: the symmetries of the circle form two copies of the circle.…
We introduce the theory of div point sets, which aims to provide a framework to study the combinatoric nature of any set of points in general position on an Euclidean plane. We then show that proving the unsatisfiability of some first-order…
It was observed in \cite{Al2} that the expectation of a squared scalar product of two random independent unit vectors that are uniformly distributed on the unit sphere in $\mathbb{R}^n $ is equal to $1/n$. It is shown below that this is a…
This paper concentrates on the homogeneous (conformal) model of Euclidean space (Horosphere) with subspaces that intuitively correspond to Euclidean geometric objects in three dimensions. Mathematical details of the construction and…
