There exist tilings of the plane with pairwise noncongruent triangles of equal area and bounded perimeter. Analogously, there exist tilings with triangles of equal perimeter, the areas of which are bounded from below by a positive constant.…
For decades, metrologists have debated heatedly whether a plane angle is a dimensional or dimensionless quantity; whether it is a base quantity in the International System of Units (SI) or a derived quantity. Two main points of view have…
A convex quadrilateral, $Q$, is called a midpoint diagonal quadrilateral if the intersection point of the diagonals of $Q$ coincides with the midpoint of at least one of the diagonals of $Q$. A parallelogram, P, is a special case of a…
In this paper the problem of finding a normal form of triangles and plane quadrilaterals up to similarity is considered. Several normal forms for triangles and a normal form for quadrilaterals of special case are described. Normal forms of…
This paper establishes the basis of the quaternionic differential geometry ($\mathbbm H$DG) initiated in a previous article. The usual concepts of curves and surfaces are generalized to quaternionic constraints, as well as the curvature and…
In this paper we study polycubes: orthogonal polyhedra with axis-aligned quadrilateral faces. We present a complete characterization of polycubes of any genus based on their dual structure: a collection of oriented loops which run in each…
It is well known that a plane graph is Eulerian if and only if its geometric dual is bipartite. We extend this result to partial duals of plane graphs. We then characterize all bipartite partial duals of a plane graph in terms of oriented…
Non-relativistic particles that are effectively confined to two dimensions can in general move on curved surfaces, allowing dynamical phenomena beyond what can be described with scalar potentials or even vector gauge fields. Here we…
Let $\{P_1, P_2, P_3, P_4\}$ be a quadruplet of points in $S^3$ . We define a ``dual'' quadruplet of it in a conformal geometric way. We show that the dual of a dual quadruplet coincides with the original one. We also show that the cross…
For one-dimensional systems of conservation laws admitting two additional conservation laws we assign a ruled surface of codimension two in projective space. We call two such systems dual if the corresponding ruled surfaces are dual. We…
We introduce and discuss the dual of a chain geometry. Each chain geometry is canonically isomorphic to its dual. This allows us to show that there are isomorphisms of chain geometries that arise from antiisomorphisms of the underlying…
Working over a field ${\mathbb{k}}$ of characteristic $\ne 2$, we study what we call bisector fields, which are arrangements of paired lines in the plane that have the property that each line in the arrangement crosses the paired lines in…
We give the classification of T-duals of the flat background in four dimensions with respect to one-, two-, and three-dimensional subgroups of the Poincar\'e group using non-Abelian T-duality with spectators. As duals we find backgrounds…
We consider a series of questions that grew out of determining when two quantum planes are isomorphic. In particular, we consider a similar question for quantum matrix algebras and certain ambiskew polynomial rings. Additionally, we modify…
Planes are familiar mathematical objects which lie at the subtle boundary between continuous geometry and discrete combinatorics. A plane is geometrical, certainly, but the ways that two planes can interact break cleanly into discrete sets:…
A notion of dual curve for pseudoholomorphic curves in 4--manifolds turns out to be possible only if the notion of almost complex structure structure is slightly generalized. The resulting structure is as easy (perhaps easier) to work with,…
We prove a certain duality relation for orthogonal polynomials defined on a finite set. The result is used in a direct proof of the equivalence of two different ways of computing the correlation functions of a discrete orthogonal polynomial…
This paper is the second part of a two-part paper investigating the structure and properties of dyadic polygons. A dyadic polygon is the intersection of the dyadic subplane $D^2$ of the real plane $R^2$ and a real convex polygon with…
If we fix the angles at the vertices of a convex planar $n$-gon, the lengths of its edges must satisfy two linear constraints in order for it to close up. If we also require unit perimeter, our vectors of $n$ edge lengths form a convex…
R. Nandakumar asked whether there is a tiling of the plane by pairwise incongruent triangles of equal area and equal perimeter. Recently a negative answer was given by Kupavskii, Pach and Tardos. Still one may ask for weaker versions of the…
