A partial affine plane of order $n$ is a point-line incidence structure with $n^2$ points and $n$ points on each line, such that every two lines meet in at most one point. In this paper, we show that a partial affine plane of order $n$, $n$…
A well-known theorem of de Bruijn and Erd\H{o}s states that any set of $n$ non-collinear points in the plane determines at least $n$ lines. Chen and Chv\'{a}tal asked whether an analogous statement holds within the framework of finite…
A plane poset is a finite set with two partial orders, satisfying a certain incompatibility condition. The set PP of isoclasses of plane posets owns two products, and an infinitesimal Hopf algebra structure is defined on the vector space…
We define noncrossing partitions of a marked surface without punctures (interior marked points). We show that the natural partial order on noncrossing partitions is a graded lattice and describe its rank function topologically. Lower…
Non-canonical equations of motion are derived from a variational principle written in symplectic form. The invariant measure of phase space and the covariant expression for the entropy are derived from non-canonical transformations of…
For a second-order elliptic equation of nondivergence form in the plane, we investigate conditions on the coefficients which imply that all strong solutions have first-order derivatives that are Lipschitz continuous or differentiable at a…
Certain operator-valued functions and new generating structures (instead of generating functionals) are proposed for the analysis of equations for n-point information (n-pi). Some remarks are made concerning the intertwining of linearity…
We consider elliptic surfaces $\mathcal{E}$ over a field $k$ equipped with zero section $O$ and another section $P$ of infinite order. If $k$ has characteristic zero, we show there are only finitely many points where $O$ is tangent to a…
It is well known that the number of distinct non-crossing matchings of $n$ half-circles in the half-plane with endpoints on the x-axis equals the $n^{th}$ Catalan number $C_n$. This paper generalizes that notion of linear non-crossing…
A new methodological approach for the study of topology for shapes made of arrangements of lines, planes or solids is presented. Topologies for shapes are traditionally built on the classical theory of point-sets. In this paper, topologies…
Some connections between classical and nonclassical symmetries of a partial differential equation (PDE) are given in terms of determining equations of the two symmetries. These connections provide additional information for determining…
One of the features inherent in nested Archimedean copulas, also called hierarchical Archimedean copulas, is their rooted tree structure. A nonparametric, rank-based method to estimate this structure is presented. The idea is to represent…
We study the order of tangency between two manifolds of same dimension and give that notion three quite different geometric interpretations. Related aspects of the order of tangency, e.g., regular separation exponents, are also discussed.
A new way to define the notion of $\C$-orthocenter will be displayed by studying some propierties of four points in the plane which allows to extend the notion of Euler's line, the Six Point Circles and the three-circles theorem, for normed…
We construct a monadic second-order sentence that characterizes the ternary relations that are the betweenness relations of finite or infinite partial orders. We prove that no first-order sentence can do that. We characterize the partial…
For a given triangle $\triangle ABC$, we define two sequences of points on line $BC$ and provide their generalizations to real functions such that centers of circumscribed circles around $A$ and adjacent points in subsequences generate a…
This article analyzes the geometric properties of an idempotent, non-associative algebraic structure that extends the Max-Times semiring. This algebraic structure is useful for studying systems of Max-Times and Max-Plus equations, employing…
Two subsets $A, B$ of the plane are betweenness isomorphic if there is a bijection $f\colon A\to B$ such that, for every $x,y,z\in A$, the point $f(z)$ lies on the line segment connecting $f(x)$ and $f(y)$ if and only if $z$ lies on the…
In a previous paper, we have given an algebraic model to the set of intervals. Here, we apply this model in a linear frame. We define a notion of diagonalization of square matrices whose coefficients are intervals. But in this case, with…
We consider tilings of a triangle $ABC$ by congruent copies of a triangle that has one angle equal to $120^\circ$, has non-commensurable angles (that is, not all angles are rational multiples of $\pi$), and is not similar to $ABC$. We prove…
