We study the Gibbs statistics of high-density hard-core configurations on a unit square lattice $\mathbb{Z}^2$, for a general Euclidean exclusion distance $D$. As a by-product, we solve the disk-packing problem on $\mathbb{Z}^2$ for disks…
We perform a rigorous study of the Gibbs statistics of high-density hard-core random configurations on a unit triangular lattice $\mathbb{A}_2$ and a unit honeycomb graph $\mathbb{H}_2$, for any value of the (Euclidean) repulsion diameter…
We consider the hard-core model in $\mathbb{R}^2$, in which a random set of non-intersecting unit disks is sampled with an intensity parameter $\lambda$. Given $\varepsilon>0$ we consider the graph in which two disks are adjacent if they…
In a previous paper (arXiv:2510.19746), we have studied the maximal hard-code model on the square lattice ${\mathbb Z}^2$ from the perspective of recoverable systems. Here we extend this study to the case of the triangular lattice ${\mathbb…
We study dense packings of disks and related Gibbs distributions representing high-density phases in the hard-core model on unit triangular, honeycomb and square lattices. The model is characterized by a Euclidean exclusion distance $D>0$…
We consider the problem of finding an inductive construction, based on vertex splitting, of triangulated spheres with a fixed number of additional edges (braces). We show that for any positive integer $b$ there is such an inductive…
We classify perimeter dominant triangles whose side lengths are in $\sqrt3\mathbb N$ and whose area is in $\frac{\sqrt3}4\mathbb N$. There is one exceptional example, which is equilateral, and three infinite families determined by certain…
Clemm and Trebat-Leder (2014) proved that the number of quadratic number fields with absolute discriminant bounded by $x$ over which there exist elliptic curves with good reduction everywhere and rational $j$-invariant is $\gg…
We study the hard-core model of statistical mechanics on a unit cubic lattice $\mathbb{Z}^3$, which is intrinsically related to the sphere-packing problem for spheres with centers in $\mathbb{Z}^3$. The model is defined by the sphere…
The study of extremal problems on triangle areas was initiated in a series of papers by Erd\H{o}s and Purdy in the early 1970s. In this paper we present new results on such problems, concerning the number of triangles of the same area that…
Yet another example where "physical" (i.e. only checking finitely many special cases) gives a fully rigorous proof, notwithstanding what your "Intro To Proofs" prof told you!
Given any positive integer n, we prove the existence of infinitely many right triangles with area n and side lengths in certain number fields. This generalizes the famous congruent number problem. The proof allows the explicit construction…
Edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by congruent quadrilaterals are completely classified in a series of three papers. This second one applies the powerful tool of trigonometric Diophantine equations to classify the case of…
The extreme limit of a class of D-dimensional black holes is revisited. In the static limit, it is shown that well defined extremal limiting procedure exists and it leads to new solutions of the type AdS2 times constant curvature symmetric…
Extremal length is a conformal invariant that transfers naturally to the discrete setting, giving square tilings as a natural combinatorial analog of conformal mappings. Recent work by S. Hersonsky has explored generalizing these ideas to…
We improve a result of H. L. Montgomery and J. P. Weinberger by establishing the existence of infinitely many fundamental discriminants $d>0$ for which the class number of the real quadratic field $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d})$ exeeds…
In terms of the number of triangles, it is known that there are more than exponentially many triangulations of surfaces, but only exponentially many triangulations of surfaces with bounded genus. In this paper we provide a first geometric…
Let $g : X \to Y$ be the contraction of an extremal ray of a smooth projective 4-fold $X$ such that $\dim Y=3$. Then $g$ may have a finite number of 2-dimensional fibers. We shall classify those fibers. Especially we shall prove that any…
The main result of this paper, is the complete parametric description of the family of triangles which have integer sidelengths and with one angle being sixty degrees.
We prove that any $n$-vertex graph whose complement is triangle-free contains $n^2/12-o(n^2)$ edge-disjoint triangles. This is tight for the disjoint union of two cliques of order $n/2$. We also prove a corresponding stability theorem, that…
