We present a new model of a non-Euclidean plane, in which angles in a triangle sum up to $\pi$. It is a subspace of the Cartesian plane over the field of hyperreal numbers $\mathbb{R}^*$. The model enables one to represent the negation of…

Nandakumar asked whether there is a tiling of the plane by pairwise non-congruent triangles of equal area and equal perimeter. Here a weaker result is obtained: there is a tiling of the plane by pairwise non-congruent triangles of equal…

Nested parentheses are forms in an algebra which define orders of evaluations. A class of well-formed sets of associated opening and closing parentheses is well studied in conjunction with Dyck paths and Catalan numbers. Nested parentheses…

We consider quadrangles of perimeter $2$ in the plane with marked directed edge. To such quadrangle $Q$ a two-dimensional plane $\Pi\in\mathbb{R}^4$ with orthonormal base is corresponded. Orthogonal plane $\Pi^\bot$ defines a plane…

In this investigation, we introduce the class of non-archimedean frames in spirit with the topological notion of non-archimedean spaces. We explore various properties of these frames - particularly their spaciality. We attach a base that…

Non-Euclidean triangle centers can be described using homogeneous coordinates that are proportional to the generalized sines of the directed distances of a given center from the edges of the reference triangle. Identical homogeneous…

An ordinary plane of a finite set of points in real 3-space with no three collinear is a plane intersecting the set in exactly three points. We prove a structure theorem for sets of points spanning few ordinary planes. Our proof relies on…

Let $S$ be a set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^3$, no three collinear and not all coplanar. If at most $n-k$ are coplanar and $n$ is sufficiently large, the total number of planes determined is at least $1 + k…

A set of n segments in the plane may form a Euclidean TSP tour, a tree, or a matching, among others. Optimal TSP tours as well as minimum spanning trees and perfect matchings have no crossing segments, but several heuristics and…

Let $P$ be a finite point set in the plane. A \emph{$c$-ordinary triangle} in $P$ is a subset of $P$ consisting of three non-collinear points such that each of the three lines determined by the three points contains at most $c$ points of…

Define a ``slice'' curve as the intersection of a plane with the surface of a polytope, i.e., a convex polyhedron in three dimensions. We prove that a slice curve develops on a plane without self-intersection. The key tool used is a…

Let $P$ be a finite set of points in the plane. A c-ordinary triangle is a set of three non-collinear points of $P$ such that each line spanned by the points contains at most $c$ points of $P$. We show that if $P$ is not contained in the…

A planar integral point set is a set of non-collinear points in plane such that for any pair of the points the Euclidean distance between the points is integral. We discuss the classification of planar integral point sets and provide…

We address the issue of angular measure, which is a contested issue for the International System of Units (SI). We provide a mathematically rigorous and axiomatic presentation of angular measure that leads to the traditional way of…

We obtain new upper and lower bounds on the number of unit perimeter triangles spanned by points in the plane. We also establish improved bounds in the special case where the point set is a section of the integer grid.

For the given regular plane polygon and an arbitrary point in the plane of the polygon, the distances from the point to the vertices of the polygon are defined. We proved that there is one more non-congruent regular polygon having the…

Motivated by a question of R.\ Nandakumar, we show that the Euclidean plane can be dissected into mutually incongruent convex quadrangles of the same area and the same perimeter. As a byproduct we obtain vertex-to-vertex dissections of the…

There exist tilings of the plane with pairwise noncongruent triangles of equal area and bounded perimeter. Analogously, there exist tilings with triangles of equal perimeter, the areas of which are bounded from below by a positive constant.…

We prove that if $N$ points lie in convex position in the plane then they determine $\Omega(N^{5/4})$ distinct angles, provided that the points do not lie on a common circle. This is derived from a more general claim that if $N$ points in…

We describe the supersymmetrization of two formulations of free noncommutative planar particles -- in coordinate space with higher order Lagrangian [1] and in the framework of Faddeev and Jackiw [2,3], with first order action. In…
