In this paper we provide a review of the concept of center of a $n$-gon, generalizing the original idea given by C. Kimberling for triangles. We also generalize the concept of central line for $n$-gons for $n\geq 3$ and establish its basic…
In this work, we review the concept of center of a geometric object as an equivariant map, unifying and generalizing different approaches followed by authors such as C. Kimberling or A. Edmonds. We provide examples to illustrate that this…
The central component of a polygon triangulation is defined as the triangle or diameter that contain its geometric center. More generally, every polygon dissection contains a central component. Using this notion, we derive new recurrences…
Non-Euclidean triangle centers can be described using homogeneous coordinates that are proportional to the generalized sines of the directed distances of a given center from the edges of the reference triangle. Identical homogeneous…
In this paper we present a way to define a set of orthocenters for a triangle in the n-dimensional space R^{n} and we will see some analogies of these orthocenters with the classic orthocenter of a triangle in the Euclidean plane.
An elementary general result is proved that allows for simple characterizations of well-known location/consensus functions (median, mean and center) on the n-cube. In addition, alternate new characterizations are given for the median and…
We discuss some basic properties of the graded center of a triangulated category and compute examples arising in representation theory of finite dimensional algebras.
There are several remarkable points, defined for polygons and multisets of points in the plane, called centers (such as the centroid). To make possible their study, there exists a formal definition for the concept of center in both cases.…
Triangle centers are usually studied individually or through special geometric relationships, but little attention has been given to global structure among them. In this paper we introduce several natural ways to order triangle centers,…
This is a paper about triangle cubics and conics in classical geometry with elements of projective geometry. In recent years, N.J. Wildberger has actively dealt with this topic using an algebraic perspective. Triangle conics were also…
Yet more candidates are proposed for inclusion in the Encyclopedia of Triangle Centers. Our focus is entirely on simple calculations.
A simplex in n dimensions is defined by the usual (n+1) linear inequality constraints in n dimensions. Here we consider simplexes which are bounded sets. The harmonic center has been defined earlier for polytopes in general. A relationship…
We show that the the image of the regular projection of a vertex of a cone over a triangle that minimizes the ratio of the cube of the area of the boundary of the cone and the square of the volume of the cone coincides with the incenter.
If we label the vertices of a triangle with 1, 2 and 4, and the orthocentre with 7, then any of the four numbers 1, 2, 4, 7 is the nim-sum of the other three and is their orthocentre. Regard the triangle as an orthocentric quadrangle.…
The diagonals of a quadrilateral form four associated triangles, called half triangles. Each half triangle is bounded by two sides of the quadrilateral and one diagonal. If we locate a triangle center (such as the incenter, centroid,…
We describe the set of possible vector valued side lengths of n-gons in thick Euclidean buildings of rank 2. This set is determined by a finite set of homogeneous linear inequalities, which we call the generalized triangle inequalities.…
We revisit constructions based on triads of conics with foci at pairs of vertices of a reference triangle. We find that their 6 vertices lie on well-known conics, whose type we analyze. We give conditions for these to be circles and/or…
Given a combinatorial triangulation of an $n$-gon, we study (a) the space of all possible drawings in the plane such the edges are straight line segments and the boundary has a fixed shape, and (b) the algebraic variety of possibilities for…
The centerpoint theorem is a well-known and widely used result in discrete geometry. It states that for any point set $P$ of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, there is a point $c$, not necessarily from $P$, such that each halfspace containing…
In this paper, constructions of regular pentagon and decagon, and the calculation of the main trigonometric ratios of the corresponding central angles are approached. In this way, for didactic purposes, it is intended to show the reader…
