An IC-plane graph is a topological graph where every edge is crossed at most once and no two crossed edges share a vertex. We show that every IC-plane graph has a visibility drawing where every vertex is an L-shape, and every edge is either…
We prove existence and uniqueness for solutions to equilibrium problems for free-standing, traction-free, non homogeneous crystals in the presence of plastic slips. Moreover we prove that this class of problems is closed under G-convergence…
We extend the geometric side of Arthur's non-invariant trace formula for a reductive group $G$ defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ continuously to a natural space $\mathcal{C}(G(\mathbb{A}^1))$ of test functions which are not necessarily compactly…
A degree-regular triangulation is one in which each vertex has identical degree. Our main result is that any such triangulation of a (possibly non-compact) surface $S$ is geometric, that is, it is combinatorially equivalent to a geodesic…
Two-, three- and four-dimensional representations of Penrose tilings of the plane are described. The vertices that occur in these representations lie on lattices. Symmetries and methods of visualizing these representations are discussed.…
We study rectangles inscribed in lines in the plane by parametrizing these rectangles in two ways, one involving slope and the other aspect ratio. This produces two paths, one that finds rectangles with specified slope and the other…
Two cycles are {\em adjacent} if they have an edge in common. Suppose that $G$ is a planar graph, for any two adjacent cycles $C_{1}$ and $C_{2}$, we have $|C_{1}| + |C_{2}| \geq 11$, in particular, when $|C_{1}| = 5$, $|C_{2}| \geq 7$. We…
We investigate finite 3-nets embedded in a projective plane over a (finite or infinite) field of any characteristic p. Such an embedding is regular when each of the three classes of the 3-net comprises concurrent lines, and irregular…
$t$-spanners are used to approximate the pairwise distances between a set of points in a metric space. They have only a few edges compared to the total number of pairs and they provide a $t$-approximation on the distance of any two…
A bar-joint framework $(G,p)$ in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{E}^d$ is globally rigid if it is the unique realisation, up to rigid congruences, of $G$ in $\mathbb{E}^d$ with the edge lengths of $(G,p)$. Building on key results of…
A graph drawing is $\textit{greedy}$ if, for every ordered pair of vertices $(x,y)$, there is a path from $x$ to $y$ such that the Euclidean distance to $y$ decreases monotonically at every vertex of the path. Greedy drawings support a…
An efficient way to get implicit equations of conics on five points and quadrics on nine, using pencils of conics and quadrics, is revealed. Parallel axis right cones intersect on a conic. An example, to show how to place five coplanar…
Suppose C is a singular curve in CP^2 and it is topologically an embedded surface of genus g; such curves are called cuspidal. The singularities of C are cones on knots K_i. We apply Heegaard Floer theory to find new constraints on the sets…
We characterize when two conic curved creases are compatible with each other, when the rule lines must converge to conic foci and reflect at the crease. Namely, two conics are compatible (can be connected by rule segments in a foldable…
We consider the structure of the point-line incidence matrix of the projective space $\mathrm{PG}(3,q)$ connected with orbits of points and lines under the stabilizer group of the twisted cubic. Structures of submatrices with incidences…
In this paper, we discuss matching extendability of optimal $1$-projective plane graphs (abbreviated as O1PPG), which are drawn on the projective plane $P^2$ so that every edge crosses another edge at most once, and has $n$ vertices and…
A linkage is a finite graph with lengths assigned to each edge. A planar realization is a map to the plane which preserves edge lengths. It can be thought of as a mechanical device formed from stiff rods and rotating joints. We look at the…
We show that the second homology of the configuration spaces of a planar graph is generated under the operations of embedding, disjoint union, and edge stabilization by three atomic graphs: the cycle graph with one edge, the star graph with…
A cylindrical stretch line is a stretch line, in the sense of Thurston, whose horocyclic lamination is a weighted multicurve. In this paper, we show that two correctly parameterized cylindrical lines are parallel if and only if these lines…
In this article we obtain the classification of the congruences of lines with one-dimensional focal locus. It turns out that one can restrict to study the case of $\mathbb{P}^3$.
