The index theorem of Euler-Poincar\'e characteristic of manifold with boundary is given by making use of the general decomposition theory of spin connection. We shows the sum of the total index of a vector field $\phi $ and half the total…

A variety of descent and major-index statistics have been defined for symmetric groups, hyperoctahedral groups, and their generalizations. Typically associated to pairs of such statistics is an Euler--Mahonian distribution, a bivariate…

We show how to define curvature as a measure using the Gauss-Bonnet Theorem on a family of singular surfaces obtained by gluing together smooth surfaces along boundary curves. We find an explicit formula for the curvature measure as a sum…

In this paper we introduce a class of polygonal complexes for which we can define a notion of sectional combinatorial curvature. These complexes can be viewed as generalizations of 2-dimensional Euclidean and hyperbolic buildings. We focus…

We relate certain universal curvature identities for Kaehler manifolds to the Euler-Lagrange equations of the scalar invariants which are defined by pairing characteristic forms with powers of the Kaehler form.

A ball-polyhedron is the intersection with non-empty interior of finitely many (closed) unit balls in Euclidean 3-space. One can represent the boundary of a ball-polyhedron as the union of vertices, edges, and faces defined in a rather…

We prove a version of Poincar\'e's polyhedron theorem whose requirements are as local as possible. New techniques such as the use of discrete groupoids of isometries are introduced. The theorem may have a wide range of applications and can…

The Newton line and the associated theorems by Newton and Gauss for tetragons and quadrilaterals are closely linked to some other theorems of Euclidean geometry: a theorem by Bocher on the existence of a nine-point conic of a quadrangle, a…

A classical theorem of P. McMullen describes all valuations on polytopes that are invariant under translations and weakly continuous, i.e., continuous with respect to parallel displacements of the facets of a polytope. While it is typically…

In this paper, we establish a Gauss-Bonnet-Chern theorem for general closed complex Finsler manifolds.

The convex hull generated by the restriction to the unit ball of a stationary Poisson point process in the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space is considered. By establishing sharp bounds on cumulants, exponential estimates for large deviation…

A multivariate Gauss-Lucas theorem is proved, sharpening and generalizing previous results on this topic. The theorem is stated in terms of a seemingly new notion of convexity. Applications to multivariate stable polynomials are given.

We give a stereological version of the Gauss-Bonnet formula in order to compute the Euler characteristic of a domain with boundary in a smooth orientable surface in R^3, by looking at contacts with a "sweeping" plane.

We define a frontal bundle by imposing a compatibility condition on two types of coherent tangent bundles over a surface with boundary. Since it is known that there are two Gauss-Bonnet type formulas for coherent tangent bundles, we obtain…

This paper is devoted to the study of the $m$-point homogeneity property for the vertex sets of polytopes in Euclidean spaces. In particular, we present the classifications of $2$-point and $3$-point homogeneous polyhedra in $\mathbb{R}^3$.

Generalized Noether's theory is a useful method for researching the modified gravity theories about the conserved quantities and symmetries. A generally Gauss-Bonnet gravity $f(R,\mathcal{G})$ theory was proposed as an alternative gravity…

An equidistant polytope is a special equidistant set in the space $\mathbb{R}^n$ all of whose boundary points have equal distances from two finite systems of points. Since one of the finite systems of the given points is required to be in…

Using the Chern-Gauss-Bonnet theorem, we establish a sharp inequality for the total Gauss-Kronecker curvature of convex hypersurfaces in Cartan-Hadamard manifolds $M^n$ with nullity index at least $n-3$. Consequently, the Euclidean…

The purpose of this paper is to generalize this relation of symmetry between the power sum polynomials and the generalized Euler polynomials to the relation between the power sum polynomials and the generalized higher-order Euler…
