This paper considers an extremal version of the Erd\H{o}s distinct distances problem. For a point set $P \subset \mathbb R^d$, let $\Delta(P)$ denote the set of all Euclidean distances determined by $P$. Our main result is the following: if…
Let a $R$-body be a closed set, complement of union of open balls of radius $R$ in the Euclidean space. Properties generalizing similar ones for convex sets are proved for the family of $R$-bodies; properties for the family of sets…
Sets in R^n in which every pair of elements x, y can be connected by a path in the set of length bounded by a constant multiple of the distance between x and y are considered.
In this paper we study the geometry of the set of real square roots of $\pm I_2$. After some introductory remarks, we begin our study by deriving by quite elementary methods the forms of the real square roots of $\pm I_2$. We then discuss…
We study convexity properties of distance functions in Finsler unitary groups, where the Finsler structure is defined by translation of the $p$-Schatten norm on the Lie algebra. As a result we prove the existence of circumcenters for sets…
For a field $\mathbb{F}$ and integers $d$ and $k$, a set of vectors of $\mathbb{F}^d$ is called $k$-nearly orthogonal if its members are non-self-orthogonal and every $k+1$ of them include an orthogonal pair. We prove that for every prime…
We will present a relation between real equiangular frames and certain special sets in groups which we call signature sets and show that many equiangular frames arise in this manner. Then we will define quasi-signature sets and will examine…
A polyhedron in Euclidean 3-space is called a regular polyhedron of index 2 if it is combinatorially regular but "fails geometric regularity by a factor of 2"; its combinatorial automorphism group is flag-transitive but its geometric…
Let $(X,d,\mu)$ be a space of homogeneous type. In this note we study the relationship between two types of $s$-sets: relative to a distance and relative to a measure. We find a condition on a closed subset $F$ of $X$ under which we have…
Let X be a real normed vector space and dim X \ge 2. Let d>0 be a fixed real number. We prove that if x,y \in X and ||x-y||/d is a rational number then there exists a finite set {x,y} \subseteq S(x,y) \subseteq X with the following…
We propose a fast, distance-preserving, binary embedding algorithm to transform a high-dimensional dataset $\mathcal{T}\subseteq\mathbb{R}^n$ into binary sequences in the cube $\{\pm 1\}^m$. When $\mathcal{T}$ consists of well-spread (i.e.,…
The set of distances of a monoid or of a domain is the set of all $d \in \mathbb N$ with the following property: there are irreducible elements $u_1, \ldots, u_k, v_1, \ldots, v_{k+d}$ such that $u_1 \cdot \ldots \cdot u_k = v_1 \cdot…
We review the author's results on Mather's $\beta$ function : non-strict convexity of $\beta$ when the configuration space has dimension two, link between the size of the Aubry set and the differentiability of $\beta$, correlation between…
We discuss the global regularity of 2 dimensional minimal sets that are near a union of two planes, and prove that every global minimal set in R^4 that looks like a union of two almost orthogonal planes at infinity is a cone. The main point…
Suppose that there exists a discrete subset $X$ of a complete, connected, $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $M$ such that the Riemannian distances between points of $X$ correspond to the Euclidean distances of a net in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$.…
A homogeneous set of $n$ points in the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space determines at least $\Omega(n^{2d/(d^2+1)} / \log^{c(d)} n)$ distinct distances for a constant $c(d)>0$. In three-space, we slightly improve our general bound and show…
This paper is devoted to the study the $m$-point homogeneity property and the point homogeneity degree for finite metric spaces. Since the vertex sets of regular polytopes, as well as of some their generalizations, are homogeneous, we pay…
Geometric algebra is a mathematical structure that is inherent in any metric vector space, and defined by the requirement that the metric tensor is given by the scalar part of the product of vectors. It provides a natural framework in which…
k-frames were recently introduced by Gavruta in Hilbert spaces to study atomic systems with respect to a bounded linear operator. A continuous frame is a family of vectors in Hilbert space which allows reproductions of arbitrary elements by…
We investigate a connection between two important classes of Euclidean lattices: well-rounded and ideal lattices. A lattice of full rank in a Euclidean space is called well-rounded if its set of minimal vectors spans the whole space. We…
