In this paper, we prove that if a finite number of rectangles, every of which has at least one integer side, perfectly tile a big rectangle then there exists a strategy which reduces the number of these tiles (rectangles) without violating…
We suggest a method of solving the problem of existence of a triangle with prescribed two bisectors and one third element which can be taken as one of the angles, the sides, the heights or the medians, or the third bisector.
A well-known conjecture of Yau states that the area of one of Clifford minimal hypersurfaces $S^k\big{(}\sqrt{\frac{k}{n}}\, \big{)}\times S^{n-k}\big{(}\sqrt{\frac{n-k}{n}}\, \big{)}$ gives the lowest value of area among all non-totally…
We present a proof of the generalized Nitsche's conjecture proposed by W.H.Meeks III and H. Rosenberg: For $t\ge 0$, let $P_t$ denote the horizontal plane of height $t$ over the $x_1,x_2$ plane. Suppose that $M \subset R^3$ is a minimal…
We prove that for any partition of the plane into a closed set $C$ and an open set $O$ and for any configuration $T$ of three points, there is a translated and rotated copy of $T$ contained in $C$ or in $O$. Apart from that, we consider…
Given $\Delta ABC$ and angles $\alpha,\beta,\gamma\in(0,\pi)$ with $\alpha+\beta+\gamma=\pi$, we study the properties of the triangle $DEF$ which satisfies: (i) $D\in BC$, $E\in AC$, $F\in AB$, (ii) $\aangle D=\alpha$, $\aangle E=\beta$,…
Considering regular graphs with every edge in a triangle we prove lower bounds for the number of triangles in such graphs. For r-regular graphs with r <= 5 we exhibit families of graphs with exactly that number of triangles and then…
It is well known that the area $U$ of the triangle formed by three tangents to a parabola $X$ is half of the area $T$ of the triangle formed by joining their points of contact. In this article, we consider whether this property and similar…
Calculating and categorizing the similarity of curves is a fundamental problem which has generated much recent interest. However, to date there are no implementations of these algorithms for curves on surfaces with provable guarantees on…
A rotational subset, relative to a continuous transformation $T: \mathbb{T} \to \mathbb{T}$ on the unit circle, is a closed, invariant subset of $\mathbb{T}$ that is minimal and on which $T$ respects the standard orientation of the unit…
It has been 40 years since Lawson and Osserman introduced the three minimal cones associated with Dirichlet problems in their 1977 Acta paper [LO77]. The first cone was shown area-minimizing by Harvey and Lawson in the celebrated paper…
Associated with isoparametric foliations of unit spheres, there are two classes of minimal surfaces $-$ minimal isoparametric hypersurfaces and focal submanifolds. By virtue of their rich structures, we find new series of minimizing cones.…
Given any set of points $S$ in the unit square that contains the origin, does a set of axis aligned rectangles, one for each point in $S$, exist, such that each of them has a point in $S$ as its lower-left corner, they are pairwise interior…
We prove that, for sufficiently large $n$, every graph of order $n$ with minimum degree at least $0.852n$ has a fractional edge-decomposition into triangles. We do this by refining a method used by Dross to establish a bound of $0.9n$. By a…
This paper investigates the least-squares projection method for bounded linear operators, which provides a natural regularization scheme by projection for many ill-posed problems. Yet, without additional assumptions, the convergence of this…
We enumerate all dissections of an equilateral triangle into smaller equilateral triangles up to size 20, where each triangle has integer side lengths. A perfect dissection has no two triangles of the same side, counting up- and…
We study the minimum total weight of a disk triangulation using vertices out of $\{1,\ldots,n\}$, where the boundary is the triangle $(123)$ and the $\binom{n}3$ triangles have independent weights, e.g. $\mathrm{Exp}(1)$ or…
We present uniqueness results for enclosing ellipses of minimal area in the hyperbolic plane. Uniqueness can be guaranteed if the minimizers are sought among all ellipses with prescribed axes or center. In the general case, we present a…
A triangle with rational sides and rational area is called a rational triangle. In this paper we consider three problems of finding pairs of rational triangles which have a common circumradius as well as either a common perimeter or a…
We extend the minimal model theorem to the 3-dimensional schemes which are projective and have semistable reduction over the spectrum of a Dedekind ring.
