This note provides formula for determinant and inverse of r-circulant matrices with general sequences of third order. In other words, the study combines many papers in the literature.

The perimeter of an ellipse has no exact closed-form expression in terms of elementary functions, and numerous approximations have been proposed since the eighteenth century. Classical formulas by Fagnano, Euler, and Ramanujan, as well as…

Let $S$ be a set of $n$ points in the unit square $[0,1]^2$, one of which is the origin. We construct $n$ pairwise interior-disjoint axis-aligned empty rectangles such that the lower left corner of each rectangle is a point in $S$, and the…

I present here a measurement of pi as determined for the largest observable circles. Intriguingly, the value of 16/5 asserted by the House of Representatives of the State of Indiana in 1897 is still viable, although strongly disfavored…

We prove that in normal rings the tight closure of an ideal can be computed as the sum of the ideal and a piece of the tight closure, called the special tight closure.

A circle pattern is a configuration of circles in the plane whose combinatorics is given by a planar graph G such that to each vertex of G corresponds a circle. If two vertices are connected by an edge in G, the corresponding circles…

We present a model development framework and numerical solution approach to the general problem-class of packing convex objects into optimized convex containers. Specifically, here we discuss the problem of packing ovals (egg-shaped…

Let $X$ be a compact real algebraic set of dimension $n$. We prove that every Euclidean continuous map from $X$ into the unit $n$-sphere can be approximated by regulous map. This strengthens and generalizes previously known results.

The diameter of a graph is the maximum distance among all pairs of vertices. Thus a graph $G$ has diameter $d$ if any two vertices are at distance at most $d$ and there are two vertices at distance $d$. We are interested in studying the…

A 4-regular planar graph $G$ is said to be circle representable if there exists a collection of circles drawn on the plane such that the touching and crossing points correspond to the vertices of $G$, and the circular arcs between those…

An occurrence of a classical pattern p in a permutation \pi is a subsequence of \pi whose letters are in the same relative order (of size) as those in p. In an occurrence of a generalized pattern, some letters of that subsequence may be…

We give a complete characterization of all real-valued functions on the unit circle $S^1$ that can be represented by integrating the spherical distance on $S^1$ with respect to a signed measure or a probability measure.

Implicit locus equations in GeoGebra allow the user to do experiments with generalization of the concept of ellipses, namely with $n$-ellipses. By experimenting we obtain a geometric object that is very similar to a set of two circles.

If P is a point inside triangle ABC, then the cevians through P extended to the circumcircle of triangle ABC create a figure containing a number of curvilinear triangles. Each curvilinear triangle is bounded by an arc of the circumcircle…

This paper studies extended formulations for radial cones at vertices of polyhedra, where the radial cone of a polyhedron $ P $ at a vertex $ v \in P $ is the polyhedron defined by the constraints of $ P $ that are active at $ v $. Given an…

We consider circles on a translation surface $X$, consisting of points joined to a common center point by a geodesic of length $R$. We show that as $R \to \infty$ these circles distribute to a measure on $X$ which is equivalent to the area.…

In decision theoretic estimation of parameters in Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^p$, the action space is chosen to be the convex closure of the estimand space. In this paper, the concept has been extended to the estimation of circular…

We derive formulas for the number of polycubes of size $n$ and perimeter $t$ that are proper in $n-1$ and $n-2$ dimensions. These formulas complement computer based enumerations of perimeter polynomials in percolation problems. We…

We show that for certain triangulations of surfaces, circle packings realising the triangulation can be found by solving a system of polynomial equations. We also present a similar system of equations for unbranched circle packings. The…

The problem of twelve spheres is to understand, as a function of $r \in (0,r_{max}(12)]$, the configuration space of $12$ non-overlapping equal spheres of radius $r$ touching a central unit sphere. It considers to what extent, and in what…
