This paper explores and proves the one-seventh area triangle using a purely algebraic approach as opposed to a geometric one. A triangle set purely in the complex plane is used so that we can utilise features of the complex number system to…

We consider the curves whose all normal planes are at the same distance from a fixed point and obtain some characterizations of them in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space.

We prove that a space whose topological complexity equals 1 is homotopy equivalent to some odd-dimensional sphere. We prove a similar result, although not in complete generality, for spaces X whose higher topological complexity TC_n(X) is…

Several characterizations of complex ellipsoids among convex bodies in Cn, in terms of their sections and projections are proved. Characterizing complex symmetry in similar terms is an important tool.

We classify complex hyperplane arrangements $\mathcal A$ whose intersection posets $L(\mathcal A)$ satisfy $L(\mathcal A)=\pi_i^{-1}\circ\pi_i\bigl(L(\mathcal A)\bigr)$ for $i=1,\dots,n$. Here $\pi_i$ denotes the projection from $\mathbb…

We give some sufficient conditions of separation of two sets of integer points by a hyperplane. Our conditions are related to the notion of convexity of sets of integer points and are weaker than existing notions.

Given a continuous function $f:[a,b]\to\mathbb{R}$ such that $f(a)=f(b)$, we investigate the set of distances $|x-y|$ where $f(x)=f(y)$. In particular, we show that the only distances this set must contain are ones which evenly divide…

Let (P) denote the problem of existence of a point in the plane of a given triangle T, that is at rational distance from all the vertices of T. In this article, we provide a complete solution to (P) for all equilateral triangles.

We isolate conditions on the relative size of sets of natural numbers $A,B$ that guarantee a nonempty intersection $\Delta(A)\cap\Delta(B)\ne\emptyset$ of the corresponding sets of distances. Such conditions apply to a large class of zero…

Given a locally compact, complete metric space $({\rm X},{\sf D})$ and an open set $\Omega\subseteq{\rm X}$, we study the class of length distances $\sf d$ on $\Omega$ that are bounded from above and below by fixed multiples of the ambient…

Recently, $p$-presentation distances for $p\in [1,\infty]$ were introduced for merge trees and multiparameter persistence modules as more sensitive variations of the respective interleaving distances ($p=\infty)$. It is well-known that…

Let $B$ be a bilinear form on pairs of points in the complex plane, of the form $B(p,q) = p^TMq$, for an invertible $2\times2$ complex matrix $M$. We prove that any finite set $S$ contained in an irreducible algebraic curve $C$ of degree…
