For the n-dimensional spherical pedal curve $ped_{\gamma,P}$ with respect to an n-dimensional spherical unit speed curve $\gamma$ and a given point $P \in S^n$, we define the spherical orthotomic curve of $\gamma$ relative to the point $P$,…

A parametric curve $\gamma$ of class $C^n$ on the $n$-sphere is said to be nondegenerate (or locally convex) when $\det\left(\gamma(t),\gamma'(t),\cdots,\gamma^{(n)}(t)\right)>0$ for all values of the parameter $t$. We orthogonalize this…

This paper introduces pedal curves of spacelike frontals in the hyperbolic 2-space. We mainly investigate the singularities of these hyperbolic pedal curves of spacelike frontals for non-singular and singular dual curve germs. We then show…

A family of proper smooth curves of genus $\geq 2$, parametrised by an open dense subset $U$ of a normal variety $S$, extends to $S$ if the natural map $\pi_1(U) \to \pi_1(S)$ on fundamental groups is an isomorphism. The criterion of this…

A curve $\gamma: [0,1] \rightarrow S^n$ of class $C^k$ ($k \geqslant n$) is locally convex if the vectors $\gamma(t), \gamma'(t), \gamma"(t), \cdots, \gamma^{(n)}(t)$ are a positive orthonormal basis to $R^{n+1}$ for all $t \in [0,1]$.…

By considering a spatial curve in a Euclidean space, we use its components, together with attaining a cyclic matrix, to show that this matrix is homothetic too and is in correspondence with a homothetic motion. Furthermore, if the curve…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$. Let $X$ be an irreducible smooth projective curve of genus $g$ over $k$. Fix an integer $n \geq 2$, and let $S^n(X)$ be the $n$-fold symmetric product of $X$. In this…

Spherically symmetric random walks in arbitrary dimension $D$ can be described in terms of Gegenbauer (ultraspherical) polynomials. For example, Legendre polynomials can be used to represent the special case of two-dimensional spherically…

The matching complex $\mathsf{M}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is a simplicial complex whose simplices are matchings in $G$. These complexes appear in various places and found applications in many areas of mathematics including computational geometry,…
