We describe for any Riemannian manifold a certain infinitesimal neighbourhood of the diagonal. Semi-conformal maps are analyzed as those that preserve such neighbourhoods; harmonic maps are analyzed as those that preserve mirror image…
The relation between the spectra of operator pencils with unbounded coefficients and of associated linear relations is investigated. It turns out that various types of spectrum coincide and the same is true for the Weyr characteristics.…
We study parallelisms on Veronese spaces associated with affine spaces, determine hyperplanes in Veronese spaces associated with projective spaces, and analyse the geometry of parallelisms determined by these hyperplanes.
We study pencils of plane cubics with only one base point and general member smooth, giving a complete classification. Under the additional hypothesis that all members are irreducible, we prove that there exists a unique non-isotrivial…
A projective rectangle is like a projective plane that has different lengths in two directions. We develop the basic theory of projective rectangles including incidence properties, projective subplanes, configuration counts, a partial…
In this paper we give a systematized treatment to some coincidence situations for multiple summing multilinear mappings which extend, generalize and simplify the methods and results obtained thus far. The application of our general results…
In this paper, we provide new discrete uniformization theorems for bounded, $m$-connected planar domains. To this end, we consider a planar, bounded, $m$-connected domain $\Omega$ and let $\bord\Omega$ be its boundary. Let $\mathcal{T}$…
We present an explicit family of hypergraphs with arbitrarily large uniformity and chromatic number that admit realizations in both geometric and number-theoretic settings. As an application, we give a new proof of a theorem of Chen, Pach,…
The purpose of this note is to study configurations of lines in projective planes over arbitrary fields having the maximal number of intersection points where three lines meet. We give precise conditions on ground fields F over which such…
In this work we study the connection between the existence of finite dihedral covers of the projective plane ramified along an algebraic curve C, infinite dihedral covers, and pencils of curves containing C.
In the present note we study some arrangements of inflectional lines, hyperosculating conics, and a nodal plane cubic that are free. Moreover, we study weak combinatorics of arrangements consisting of lines, conics, and elliptic curves…
A line g is a transversal to a family F of convex polytopes in 3-dimensional space if it intersects every member of F. If, in addition, g is an isolated point of the space of line transversals to F, we say that F is a pinning of g. We show…
A graph $G = (V,E)$ is word-representable if there is a word $w$ over the alphabet $V$ such that $x$ and $y$ alternate in $w$ if and only if the edge $(x, y)$ is in $G$. It is known [6] that all $3$-colourable graphs are word-representable,…
R. Nandakumar asked whether there is a tiling of the plane by pairwise incongruent triangles of equal area and equal perimeter. Recently a negative answer was given by Kupavskii, Pach and Tardos. Still one may ask for weaker versions of the…
Coherent control of reactive atomic and molecular collision processes remains elusive experimentally due to quantum interference-based requirements. Here, with insights from symmetry conditions, a viable method for controlling Penning and…
If we label the vertices of a triangle with 1, 2 and 4, and the orthocentre with 7, then any of the four numbers 1, 2, 4, 7 is the nim-sum of the other three and is their orthocentre. Regard the triangle as an orthocentric quadrangle.…
In this paper, we revisit the classical problem of determining osculating conics and sextactic points for a given algebraic curve. Our focus is on a particular family of plane cubic curves known as the Hesse pencil. By employing classical…
We study equilibrium configurations of infinitely many identical particles on the real line or finitely many particles on the circle, such that the (repelling) force they exert on each other depends only on their distance. The main question…
We study the integer sequence v_n of numbers of lines in hypersurfaces of degree 2n-3 of P^n, n>1. We prove a number of congruence properties of these numbers of several different types. Furthermore, the asymptotics of the v_n are described…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective surface such that linear and numerical equivalence of divisors on $X$ coincide and let $\sigma\subseteq |D|$ be a linear pencil on $X$ with integral general fibers. A fiber of $\sigma$ will be called special…
