If a collection of identical particles is poured into a container, different shapes will fill to different densities. But what is the shape that fills a container as close as possible to a pre-specified, desired density? We demonstrate a…
We use a variational principle to prove an existence and uniqueness theorem for planar weighted Delaunay triangulations (with non-intersecting site-circles) with prescribed combinatorial type and circle intersection angles. Such weighted…
Rigid particles pack into structures, such as sand dunes on the beach, whose overall stability is determined by the average number of contacts between particles. However, when packing spatially extended objects with flexible shapes,…
Bezrukavnikov (later together with Arinkin) recovered the work of Deligne defining perverse $t$-structures for the derived category of coherent sheaves on a projective variety. In this text we prove that these $t$-structures can be obtained…
We consider packings of congruent circles on a square flat torus, i.e., periodic (w.r.t. a square lattice) planar circle packings, with the maximal circle radius. This problem is interesting due to a practical reason - the problem of "super…
The paper proves a result on the convergence of discrete conformal maps to the Riemann mappings for Jordan domains. It is a counterpart of Rodin-Sullivan's theorem on convergence of circle packing mappings to the Riemann mapping in the new…
The traditional Riemann Mapping Theorem can be proved with circle packing techniques. We prove the Combinatorial Riemann Mapping Theorem for tilings of bounded size using circle packings.
Humans can easily perceive illusory contours and complete missing forms in fragmented shapes. This work investigates whether such capability can arise in convolutional neural networks (CNNs) using deep structural priors computed directly…
We proved a rigidity result for Delaunay triangulations of the plane under Luo's discrete conformal change, extending previous results on hexagonal triangulations. Our result is a discrete analogue of the conformal rigidity of the plane. We…
We describe an algorithm that allows one to find dense packing configurations of a number of congruent disks in arbitrary domains in two or more dimensions. We have applied it to a large class of two dimensional domains such as rectangles,…
We show that the deformation theory of a perfect complex and that of its determinant are related by the trace map, in a general setting of sheaves on a site. The key technical step, in passing from the setting of modules over a ring where…
Classical Delaunay surfaces are highly symmetric constant mean curvature (CMC) submanifolds of space forms. We prove the existence of Delaunay-type hypersurfaces in a large class of compact manifolds, using the geometry of cohomogeneity one…
In this paper a new connection between the discrete conformal geometry problem of disk pattern construction and the continuous conformal geometry problem of metric uniformization is presented. In a nutshell, we discuss how to construct disk…
It is important that a spatial network's construction algorithm reproduces the structural properties of the original physical embedding. Here, we assess the Delaunay triangulation as a spatial network construction algorithm for seven…
Attempts to build a discrete theory for rational maps on the sphere via circle packing have foundered on discretization effects in locating branch points. The authors remove this impediment by introducing generalized branch points. A…
The Andreev-Thurston Circle Packing Theorem is generalized to packings of convex bodies in planar simply connected domains. This turns out to be a useful tool for constructing conformal and quasiconformal mappings with interesting geometric…
We establish a conjecture of Mumford characterizing rationally connected complex projective manifolds in several cases.
Strata of translation surfaces are covered by the closures of finitely many iso-Delaunay regions: open subspaces parametrizing surfaces whose Delaunay triangulations are combinatorially equivalent. We prove that the iso-Delaunay regions for…
This work studies path planning in two-dimensional space, in the presence of polygonal obstacles. We specifically address the problem of building a roadmap graph, that is, an abstract representation of all the paths that can potentially be…
Deep learning models have gained great success in many real-world applications. However, most existing networks are typically designed in heuristic manners, thus lack of rigorous mathematical principles and derivations. Several recent…
