In this paper we show a a proof by explicit bijections of the famous Kirkman-Cayley formula for the number of dissections of a convex polygon. Our starting point is the bijective correspondence between the set of nested sets made by \(k\)…

A convex polygon $Q$ is inscribed in a convex polygon $P$ if every side of $P$ contains at least one vertex of $Q$. We present algorithms for finding a minimum area and a minimum perimeter convex polygon inscribed in any given convex…

Every normal periodic tiling is a strongly balanced tiling. The properties of periodic tilings by convex polygons are rearranged from the knowledge of strongly balanced tilings. From the results, we show the properties of representative…

We study self-similar attractors in the space $\mathbb{R}^d$, i.e., self-similar compact sets defined by several affine operators with the same linear part. The special case of attractors when the matrix $M$ of the linear part of affine…

In this paper, we consider a conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and Rosenfeld when the number is a perfect square. In particular, we show that every perfect square $n$ can have at most five divisors between $\sqrt{n} - c \sqrt[4]{n}$ and $\sqrt{n} + c…

In this paper we confirm a conjecture of Sun which states that each positive integer is a sum of a square, an odd square and a triangular number. Given any positive integer m, we show that p=2m+1 is a prime congruent to 3 modulo 4 if and…

The aim of this work is to prove that the connected parts of Farey complex structure in plane are triangles or quadrangles. To do this work we go back to plane convex polygones with oriented edge for wich we prove that if two consecutive…

In this paper, we construct infinitely many quadruples of real quadratic fields whose class numbers are all divisible by $3$. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first result towards the divisibility of the class numbers of certain…

A simple graph is called triangular if every edge of it belongs to a triangle. We conjecture that any graphical degree sequence all terms of which are greater than or equal to 4 has a triangular realisation, and establish this conjecture…

By a simple method we prove the following conjecture on Sharygin triangles: there is only one Sharygin triangle (up to an isometry) whose vertices are chosen from the set of vertices of a regular polygon inscribed in a circle of radius 1.

Answering a question posed by Joseph Malkevitch, we prove that there exists a polyhedral graph, with triangular faces, such that every realization of it as the graph of a convex polyhedron includes at least one face that is a scalene…

We introduce a notion of $k$-convexity and explore polygons in the plane that have this property. Polygons which are \mbox{$k$-convex} can be triangulated with fast yet simple algorithms. However, recognizing them in general is a 3SUM-hard…

We show that the following problem is undecidable: given two polygonal prototiles, determine whether the plane can be tiled with rotated and translated copies of them. This improves a result of Demaine and Langerman [SoCG 2025], who showed…

We give a short proof for a formula for the number of divisions of a convex (sn+2)-gon along non-crossing diagonals into (sj+2)-gons, where 1<=j<=n-1. In other words, we consider dissections of an (sn+2)-gon into pieces which can be further…
