A soft presentation of hyperbolic spaces, free of differential apparatus, is offered. Fifth Euclid's postulate in such spaces is overthrown and, among other things, it is proved that spheres (equipped with great-circle distances) and…
The family of Euclidean triangles having some fixed perimeter and area can be identified with a subset of points on a nonsingular cubic plane curve, i.e., an elliptic curve; furthermore, if the perimeter and the square of the area are…
Given a family of varieties, the Euler discriminant locus distinguishes points where Euler characteristic differs from its generic value. We introduce a hypergeometric system associated with a flat family of very affine locally complete…
We prove that a regular elliptic isometry $f$ of complex hyperbolic space $\mathbf{H}_{\mathbb{C}}^2$ preserves a Lagrangian plane through its fixed point as a non-involution if and only if $f$ is real elliptic. In this case, the isometry…
The geometry of closed surfaces equipped with a Euclidean metric with finitely many conical points of arbitrary angle is studied. The main result is that the set of closed geodesics is dense in the space of geodesics.
We prove that over a Poncelet triangle family interscribed between two nested ellipses $\mathcal{E},\mathcal{E}_c$, (i) the locus of the orthocenter is not only a conic, but it is axis-aligned and homothetic to a $90^o$-rotated copy of…
This is a survey of metric properties of non-Euclidean conics, mainly based on works of Chasles and Story. A spherical conic is the intersection of the sphere with a quadratic cone; similarly, a hyperbolic conic is the intersection of the…
The geometry of closed surfaces equipped with a Euclidean metric with finitely many conical points of arbitrary angle is studied. The main result is that the image of a non-closed geodesic has 0 distance from the set of conical points.…
We investigate several topics of triangle geometry in the elliptic and in the extended hyperbolic plane, such as: centers based on orthogonality, centers related to circumcircles and incircles, radical centers and centers of similitude,…
We prove that over a generic Poncelet triangle family, the locus of the circumcenter of an inversive triangle is a conic. Additionally, we prove an earlier conjecture: over generic Poncelet triangles, two unique points exist which maintain…
We develop a circle of ideas involving pairs of lines in the plane, intersections of hyperbolically rotated elliptical cones and the locus of the centers of rectangles inscribed in lines in the plane.
Certain topics on polygons are extended from Euclidean to hyperbolic geometry. This first part deals with uniqueness and existence of cocyclic polygons with prescribed sidelengths. The non-Euclidean versions are more difficult due to the…
For a finite set $U$ of directions in the Euclidean plane, a convex non-degenerate polygon $P$ is called a $U$-polygon if every line parallel to a direction of $U$ that meets a vertex of $P$ also meets another vertex of $P$. We characterize…
This is a paper about triangle cubics and conics in classical geometry with elements of projective geometry. In recent years, N.J. Wildberger has actively dealt with this topic using an algebraic perspective. Triangle conics were also…
We prove some uniqueness results for conics of minimal area that enclose a compact, full-dimensional subset of the elliptic plane. The minimal enclosing conic is unique if its center or axes are prescribed. Moreover, we provide sufficient…
In classical Euclidean geometry, there are several equivalent definitions of conic sections. We show that in the hyperbolic plane, the analogues of these same definitions still make sense, but are no longer equivalent, and we discuss the…
We study monogenity of pure cubic number fields by means of Selmer groups of certain elliptic curves. A cubic number field with discriminant $D$ determines a unique nontrivial $\mathbb{F}_3$-orbit in the first cohomology group of the…
An exceptional point in the moduli space of compact Riemann surfaces is a unique surface class whose full automorphism group acts with a triangular signature. A surface admitting a conformal involution with quotient an elliptic curve is…
It is well known since Jacobi that the geodesic flow of the ellipsoid is "completely integrable", which means that the geodesic orbits are described in a certain explicit way. However, it does not directly indicate that any global behavior…
For a smooth surface in $\mathbb{R}^3$ this article contains local study of certain affine equidistants, that is loci of points at a fixed ratio between points of contact of parallel tangent planes (but excluding ratios 0 and 1 where the…
