We show that every 3-regular circle graph has at least two pairs of twin vertices; consequently no such graph is prime with respect to the split decomposition. We also deduce that up to isomorphism, K_4 and K_{3,3} are the only 3-connected,…

Can one build an arbitrary polytope from any polytope inside by iteratively stacking pyramids onto facets, without losing the convexity throughout the process? We prove that this is indeed possible for (i) 3-polytopes, (ii) 4-polytopes…

Given integers b, c, g, and n, we construct a manifold M containing a c-component link L so that there is a bridge surface Sigma for (M,L) of genus g that intersects L in 2b points and has distance at least n. More generally, given two…

In this paper, we consider constructibility of simplicial 3-balls. In many cases, examining 1-dimensional subcomplexes of a simplicial 3-ball is efficient to solve the decision problem whether the simplicial 3-ball is constructible or not.…

We show that every source connected Lie groupoid always has global bisections through any given point. This bisection can be chosen to be the multiplication of some exponentials as close as possible to a prescribed curve. The existence of…

A $2-(n,4,\lambda)$ design $(\Omega, \mathcal{B})$ is said to be supersimple if distinct lines intersect in at most two points. From such a design, one can construct a certain subset of Sym$(\Omega)$ called a "Conway groupoid". The…

I provide a systematic construction of points (defined over number fields) on Legendre elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$: for any odd integer $n\geq 3$ my method constructs $n$ points on the Legendre curve and I show that rank of the…

We study a construction, which produces surfaces $Y \subset P_3$ with cusps. For example we obtain surfaces of degree six with 18, 24 or 27 three-divisible cusps. For sextic surfaces in a particular family of up to 30 cusps the codes of…

We develop new tools for the construction of fixed point sets in digital topology. We define excludable points and show that these may be excluded from all freezing sets. We show that articulation points are excludable. We also present…

It is well known that several classical geometry problems (e.g., angle trisection) are unsolvable by compass and straightedge constructions. But what kind of object is proven to be non-existing by usual arguments? These arguments refer to…

We consider the question of when the $n$-dimensional hypercube can be decomposed into paths of length $k$. Mollard and Ramras \cite{MR2013} noted that for odd $n$ it is necessary that $k$ divides $n2^{n-1}$ and that $k\leq n$. Later, Anick…

Squaring the circle is impossible, but it can be squared approximately. Ramanujan gave a construction correct to eight decimal places. In his book Mathographics, Dixon gave constructions correct to three decimal places. In this article, we…

We determine the maximal hyperplane sections of the regular $n$-simplex, if the distance of the hyperplane to the centroid is fairly large, i.e. larger than the distance of the centroid to the midpoint of edges. Similar results for the…

In this paper we will develop an axiomatic foundation for the geometric study of straight edge, protractor, and compass constructions, which while being related to previous foundations, will be the first to have all axioms written and all…

We show that a very general (3,3) complete intersection in $\mathbb{P}^7$ over an algebraically closed uncountable field of characteristic different from 2 admits no decomposition of the diagonal, in particular it is not retract rational.…

In the first part of this paper, we discuss the notion of irreducibility of cycles in the moduli spaces of n-marked rational tropical curves. We prove that Psi-classes and vital divisors are irreducible, and that locally irreducible…

Brown constructed a series of threefold flips given by the GIT quotient of a hypersurface in $\mathbb{C}^5$. In this article, we classify threefold flips and flops which are the GIT quotients of complete intersections in $\mathbb{C}^6$. We…

Numerical integration formulas in $n$-dimensional Euclidean space of degree three are discussed. For the integrals with permutation symmetry we present a method to construct its third-degree integration formulas with $2n$ real points. We…

We show how for every integer n one can explicitly construct n distinct plane quartics and one hyperelliptic curve over the complex numbers all of whose Jacobians are isomorphic to one another as abelian varieties without polarization. When…

Let n be a positive integer and t a non-zero integer. We consider the elliptic curve over Q given by E : y 2 = x 3 + tx 2 -- n 2 (t + 3n 2)x + n 6. It is a special case of an elliptic surface studied recently by Bettin, David and Delaunay…
