Nous tentons dans cet article de proposer une th\`ese coh\'erente concernant la formation de la notion d'involution dans le Brouillon Project de Desargues. Pour cela, nous donnons une analyse d\'etaill\'ee des dix premi\`eres pages dudit…
We show in this article how Girard Desargues, in his well known text on conics, the \textit{Brouillon Project,} manages to use Menelaos' theorem with some awesome virtuosity. To this end, we propose a detailed analysis of his…
This work is, in part, a generalization of the article by A.A. Bruen ,T.C Bruen and J.M.McQuillan on Desargues Theorem in arXiv:2007.09175[mathCO]July 17,2020. We prove the extension of Desargues theorem in all dimensions, using 4 different…
In La G\'eom\'etrie, Descartes proposed a balance between geometric constructions and symbolic manipulation with the introduction of suitable ideal machines. In modern terms, that is a balance between analog and symbolic computation.…
The paper gives a review of very recent results related to the Poncelet Theorem, on the occasion of its bicentennial. We are telling the story of one of the most beautiful theorems of Geometry, recalling for the general mathematical…
A polarity of a projective plane is a map, often assumed to be involutive, mapping a generic point to a generic line and reciprocally. The most classical polarity is the polarity with respect to a conic, but other exist: the harmonic…
The statement of the Gauss-Bonnet theorem brings up an unexpected form of reflexivity (major concept of philosophy of mathematics), so that geometry contemplates itself in it. It is therefore the revolutionary and multifaceted concept of…
In 1640's, Blaise Pascal discovered a remarkable property of a hexagon inscribed in a conic - Pascal Theorem, which gave birth of the projective geometry. In this paper, a new geometric invariant of algebraic curves is discovered by a…
Orthogonal projections of the uniform measure on the Sierpinski triangle form a family of self similar measures with overlaps. The main result of this work is to make a connection between the dimension theory of these measures and the…
In the present paper we generalise transference theorems from the classical geometry of numbers to the geometry of numbers over the ring of adeles of a number field. To this end we introduce a notion of polarity for adelic convex bodies.
In this diploma thesis we discuss the deformation theory of Lie algebroids and Dirac structures. The first chapter gives a short introduction to Dirac structures on manifolds as introduced by Courant in 1990. We also give some physical…
Some translations into non-euclidean geometry of classical theorems of planar projective geometry are explored. The existence of some common triangle centers is dedeuced from theorems of Pascal and Chasles. Desargues' Theorem allows to…
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…
Given a triangulation of a closed surface, we consider a cross ratio system that assigns a complex number to every edge satisfying certain polynomial equations per vertex. Every cross ratio system induces a complex projective structure…
A classical theory of Desarguesian geometry, originating with D. Hilbert in his 1899 treatise, Grundlagen der Geometrie, leads from axioms to the construction of a division ring from which coordinates may be assigned to points, and…
We study Poncelet's Theorem in finite projective coordinate planes over the field $GF(p)$ and concentrate on a particular pencil of conics. For pairs of such conics we investigate whether we can find polygons with $n$ sides, which are…
The study of graph discrepancy problems, initiated by Erd\H{o}s in the 1960s, has received renewed attention in recent years. In general, given a $2$-edge-coloured graph $G$, one is interested in embedding a copy of a graph $H$ in $G$ with…
We present a criterion when six points chosen on the sides of a triangle belong to the same conic. Using this tool we show how the two geometrical gems - celebrated Poncelet's theorem of projective geometry and incredible Morley's theorem…
We study families of triangles that are inscribed in a fixed circle and circumscribed about a central conic, extending the classical Chapple--Euler relation within the framework of Poncelet geometry. We establish several geometric…
We give an interpretation of the construction of torsors from preceding work (Bertram, Kinyon: Associative Geometries. I, J. Lie Theory 20) in terms of classical projective geometry. For the Desarguesian case, this leads to a reformulation…
