Closed meanders are planar configurations of one or several disjoint closed Jordan curves intersecting a given line or curve transversely. They arise as shooting curves of parabolic PDEs in one space dimension, as trajectories of Cartesian…

Any set of $\sigma$-Hermitian matrices of size $n \times n$ over a field with involution $\sigma$ gives rise to a projective line in the sense of ring geometry and a projective space in the sense of matrix geometry. It is shown that the two…

In this paper, we contribute toward a classification of two-variable polynomials by classifying (up to an automorphism of $C^2$) polynomials whose Newton polygon is either a triangle or a line segment. Our classification has several…

The paper is devoted to the description of family of scalene triangles for which the triangle formed by the intersection points of bisectors with opposite sides is isosceles. We call them Sharygin triangles. It turns out that they are…

We show that if $\gamma$ is a Jordan curve in $\mathbb{R}^2$ which is close to a $C^2$ Jordan curve $\beta$ in $\mathbb{R}^2$, then $\gamma$ contains an inscribed square. In particular, if $\kappa > 0$ is the maximum unsigned curvature of…

We prove an integral formula for continuous paths of rectangles inscribed in a piecewise smooth loop. We then use this integral formula to show that (with a very mild genericity hypothesis) the number of rectangle coincidences, informally…

The geometric calculus based on Clifford algebra is a very useful tool for geometry and physics. It describes a geometric structure which is much richer than the ordinary geometry of spacetime. A Clifford manifold (C-space) consists not…

This paper proves a conjecture by Solomon about Steiner shallow-light trees (SLT) in Euclidean $d$-space: It is shown that for any finite point set $\mathbb{R}^d$, any root, and any $\epsilon>0$, there is a Euclidean Steiner…

We give a generalization of Thurston's Bounded Image Theorem for skinning maps, which applies to pared 3-manifolds with incompressible boundary that are not necessarily acylindrical. Along the way we study properties of divergent sequences…

In the present paper we prove that every 2-local inner derivation on the Jordan ring of self-adjoint matrices over a commutative involutive ring is a derivation. We also apply our technique to various Jordan algebras of infinite dimensional…

Two vertex-labelled polygons are \emph{compatible} if they have the same clockwise cyclic ordering of vertices. The definition extends to polygonal regions (polygons with holes) and to triangulations---for every face, the clockwise cyclic…

We geometrically prove that in a d-dimensional cube with edges of length n, the number of particular d-dimensional tetrahedrons are given by Eulerian numbers. These tetrahedrons tassellate the cube, In this way the sum of the cubes are the…

We describe the structure of all continuous Jordan triple endomorphisms of the set $\mathbb{P}_2$ of all positive definite $2\times 2$ matrices thus completing a recent result of ours. We also mention an application concerning sorts of…

The dualistic structure of statistical manifolds in information geometry yields eight types of geodesic triangles passing through three given points, the triangle vertices. The interior angles of geodesic triangles can sum up to $\pi$ like…

Let $S$ be a set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^3$, no three collinear and not all coplanar. If at most $n-k$ are coplanar and $n$ is sufficiently large, the total number of planes determined is at least $1 + k…

We prove that an analogue of Jordan's theorem on finite subgroups of general linear groups holds for the groups of biregular automorphisms of elliptic ruled surfaces. This gives a positive answer to a question of Vladimir L. Popov.

For the family of quadratic rational functions having a $2$-cycle of bounded type Siegel disks, we prove that each of the boundaries of these Siegel disks contains at most one critical point. In the parameter plane, we prove that the locus…

The main purpose of this paper is to show that every Jordan centralizer and every Jordan two-sided centralizer is a centralizer on triangular rings without assuming unity. As an application, we prove that every Jordan generalized derivation…

Delaunay triangulations of a point set in the Euclidean plane are ubiquitous in a number of computational sciences, including computational geometry. Delaunay triangulations are not well defined as soon as 4 or more points are concyclic but…

By the theorem of Mantel $[5]$ it is known that a graph with $n$ vertices and $\lfloor \frac{n^{2}}{4} \rfloor+1$ edges must contain a triangle. A theorem of Erd\H{o}s gives a strengthening: there are not only one, but at least…
