We study triangles $ABC$ and points $P$ for which the generalized orthocenter $H$ corresponding to $P$ coincides with a vertex $A,B$, or $C$. The set of all such points $P$ is a union of three ellipses minus $6$ points. In addition, if…

A bisection line divides a convex planar curve into two parts with equal areas. It is natural to study the envelope of these lines, which in general present singularities. The polygonal case is particularly inte\-resting, since there are…

Se enuncia los principales teoremas empleados en la resoluci'on de tri'angulos oblicu'angulos. Con ellos, se ilustra c'omo resolver los cinco casos de resoluci'on que se presentan, incluyendo algunos caso at'ipicos (cuando se conoce el…

Working over a field of characteristic other than $2$, we examine a relationship between quadrilaterals and the pencil of conics passing through their vertices. Asymptotically, such a pencil of conics is what we call a bisector field, a set…

Let E be a point in the plane of a convex quadrilateral ABCD. The lines from E to the vertices of the quadrilateral form four triangles. If we locate a triangle center in each of these triangles, the four triangle centers form another…

The existence of excircles and an Apollonius circle for a triangle in taxicab geometry are connected to the concept of inscribed triangles.

Polyominoes are a subset of polygons which can be constructed from integer-length squares fused at their edges. A system of polygons P is interlocked if no subset of the polygons in P can be removed arbitrarily far away from the rest. It is…

If $ABC$ is a given triangle in the plane, $P$ is any point not on the extended sides of $ABC$ or its anticomplementary triangle, $Q$ is the complement of the isotomic conjugate of $P$ with respect to $ABC$, $DEF$ is the cevian triangle of…

Let $p_1,p_2,p_3$ be three distinct points in the plane, and, for $i=1,2,3$, let $\mathcal C_i$ be a family of $n$ unit circles that pass through $p_i$. We address a conjecture made by Sz\'ekely, and show that the number of points incident…

The four Hagge circles of the triangles BCD, ACD, ABD, ABC of a cyclic quadrilateral ABCD with respect to an appropriate common axis of inverse similarity share many features which are analysed.

A point in the interior of a planar triangle determines a subdivision into six subtriangles. A triangle with angles commensurable with $\pi$ is called $\pi$-commensurable. For such a triangle a subdivision where each of the subtriangles are…

Given a polygon $P$ in the triangular grid, we obtain a permutation $\pi_P$ via a natural billiards system in which beams of light bounce around inside of $P$. The different cycles in $\pi_P$ correspond to the different trajectories of…

An N -tiling of triangle ABC by triangle T is a way of writing ABC as a union of N triangles congruent to T, overlapping only at their boundaries. The triangle T is the "tile". The tile may or may not be similar to ABC . We wish to…

We show that for certain triangulations of surfaces, circle packings realising the triangulation can be found by solving a system of polynomial equations. We also present a similar system of equations for unbranched circle packings. The…

Because the problem of Apollonius is generally considered over the reals, it suffers from variance of number: there are at most eight circles simultaneously tangent to a given trio of circles, but some configurations have fewer than eight…

We classify the topological types of surfaces in the 3-dimensional unit sphere that contain both a great and a small circle through each point. In particular, these surfaces are homeomorphic to one of five normal forms and are either the…

Let $ABC$ be an equilateral triangle. For certain triangles $T$ (the "tile") and certain $N$, it is possible to cut $ABC$ into $N$ copies of $T$. It is known that only certain shapes of $T$ are possible, but until now very little was known…

We prove that a surface in real 3-space containing a line and a circle through each point is a quadric. We also give some particular results on the classification of surfaces containing several circles through each point.

We present a number of relations involving the number of cliques in a graph and its spectral radius.

The Three Gap Theorem states that for any $\alpha \in \mathbb{R}$ and $N \in \mathbb{N}$, the fractional parts of $\{ 0\alpha, 1\alpha, \dots, (N - 1)\alpha \}$ partition the unit circle into gaps of at most three distinct lengths. We prove…
