Approximate symmetries of geodesic equations on 2-spheres are studied. These are the symmetries of the perturbed geodesic equations which represent approximate path of a particle rather than exact path. After giving the exact symmetries of…

In this paper, we introduce a new parameter, the affine twist parameter for the affine deformation of a sphere with holes. We show that the affine deformation space can be parametrized by Margulis invariants and affine twist parameters. The…

Many classical geometric inequalities on functionals of convex bodies depend on the dimension of the ambient space. We show that this dimension dependence may often be replaced (totally or partially) by different symmetry measures of the…

In a recent work Brevik \emph{et al.} have offered formal proofs of two results which figure prominently in calculations of the Casimir pressure on a sphere. It is shown by means of simple counterexamples that each of those proofs is…

Quadric hypersurfaces are well-known to satisfy the Hasse principle. However, this is no longer true in the case of the Hasse principle for integral points, where counter-examples are known to exist in dimension 1 and 2. This work explores…

An affine hypersurface is said to admit a pointwise symmetry, if there exists a subgroup of the automorphism group of the tangent space, which preserves (pointwise) the affine metric h, the difference tensor K and the affine shape operator…
