Given a pair of planar curves, one can define its generalized area distance, a concept that generalizes the area distance of a single curve. In this paper, we show that the generalized area distance of a pair of planar curves is an improper…

We present a concise proof for the supporting hyperplane theorem. We then observe that the proof not only establishes the supporting hyperplane theorem but also extends it to a hyperplane separation theorem for certain non-convex sets. The…

A set in $\mathbb R^d$ is called almost-equidistant if for any three distinct points in the set, some two are at unit distance apart. First, we give a short proof of the result of Bezdek and L\'angi claiming that an almost-equidistant set…

Let $K$ be a convex body in Euclidean space ${\mathbb R}^d$, and let a translation invariant, locally finite Borel measure on the space of hyperplanes in ${\mathbb R}^d$ be given. For $\delta\ge 0$, we consider the set of all points $x$ for…

We prove that a nonempty closed and geodesically convex subset of the $l_{\infty}$ plane $\mathbb{R}^2_{\infty}$ is hyperconvex and we characterize the tight spans of arbitrary subsets of $\mathbb{R}^2_{\infty}$ via this property: Given any…

We study a specific class of deformations of curve singularities: the case when the singular point splits to several ones, such that the total $\delta$ invariant is preserved. These are also known as equi-normalizable or equi-generic…

Equifacetal simplices, all of whose codimension one faces are congruent to one another, are studied. It is shown that the isometry group of such a simplex acts transitively on its set of vertices, and, as an application, equifacetal…

In a previous work we proved that each $n$-dimensional convex polyhedron ${\mathcal K}subset{\mathbb R}^n$ and its relative interior are regular images of ${\mathbb R}^n$. As the image of a non-constant polynomial map is an unbounded…

For two closed curves on a plane (discrete version) and local criteria for similarity of points on the curves one gets a potential, which describes the similarity between curve points. This is the base for a global similarity measure of…

We show that if X is a piecewise Euclidean 2-complex with a cocompact isometry group, then every 2-quasiflat in X is at finite Hausdorff distance from a subset which is locally flat outside a compact set, and asymptotically conical.

We say that a metric graph is uniformly bounded if the degrees of all vertices are uniformly bounded and the lengths of edges are pinched between two positive constants; a metric space is approximable by a uniform graph if there is one…

For a smooth plane cubic $B$, we count curves $C$ of degree $d$ such that the normalizations of $C\backslash B$ are isomorphic to $\Bbb A^1$, for $d\leq7$ (for $d=7$ under some assumption). We also count plane rational quartic curves…

A point set $S \subseteq \mathbb{R}^2$ is universal for a class $\cal G$ if every graph of ${\cal G}$ has a planar straight-line embedding on $S$. It is well-known that the integer grid is a quadratic-size universal point set for planar…
