In this note, we examine the arrangements of lines and configurations of points that emerge from Fermat (von Dyck) and Komiya-Kuribayashi quartics. These quartics are characterized by having the maximum number of lines of maximal tangency,…
In 1888, Heinrich Schroeter provided a ruler construction for points on cubic curves based on line involutions. Using Chasles' Theorem and the terminology of elliptic curves, we give a simple proof of Schroeter's construction. In addition,…
Planar point sets with many triple lines (which contain at least three distinct points of the set) have been studied for 180 years, started with Jackson and followed by Sylvester. Green and Tao has shown recently that the maximum possible…
Since J. L. Lagrange initiated in 1760 the study of minimal surfaces of Euclidean 3-space, minimal surfaces in real space forms have been studied extensively by many mathematicians during the last two and half centuries. In contrast, so far…
Quaternions, split quaternions, and hybrid numbers are very well-known number systems. These number systems are used to make geometry in Euclidean and Lorentz spaces. These number systems can be obtained with the help of a quadratic form.…
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.…
We are interested in studying doubling metric spaces with the property that at some of the points the metric tangent is unique. In such a setting, Finsler-Carnot-Caratheodory geometries and Carnot groups appear as models for the tangents.…
The classical van der Waals equation, applied to one or two mixing fluids, and the Helmholtz (free) energy function $A$ yield, for fixed temperature $T$, a curve in the plane $\mathbb{R}^2$ (one fluid) or a surface in 3-space $\mathbb{R}^3$…
In 1998 A. Connes proposed an algebraic proof of Morley's trisector theorem. He observed that the points of intersection of the trisectors are the fixed points of pairwise products of rotations around vertices of the triangle with angles…
We study relations in the Grothendieck ring of varieties which connect the Hilbert scheme of points on a cubic hypersurface $Y$ with a certain moduli space of twisted cubic curves on $Y$. These relations are generalizations of the…
Ternary real-valued quartics in $\mathbb{R}^3$ being invariant under octahedral symmetry are considered. The geometric classification of these surfaces is given. A new type of surfaces emerge from this classification.
Pointwise tangential dimensions are introduced for metric spaces. Under regularity conditions, the upper, resp. lower, tangential dimensions of X at x can be defined as the supremum, resp. infimum, of box dimensions of the tangent sets, a…
Boris Shapiro and Michael Shapiro have a conjecture concerning the Schubert calculus and real enumerative geometry and which would give infinitely many families of zero-dimensional systems of real polynomials (including families of…
We provide a method to compute the dimension of the tangent space to the global infinitesimal deformation functor of a curve together with a subgroup of the group of automorphisms. The computational techniques we developed are applied to…
In this paper we show that space of spatial polygons in semi riemann space gives a Kahler manifold. We describe the tangent space and almost complex structure which has many computational advantages.
In this study, we try to semi-real quaternionic curves in the semi-Euclidean space E_2^4. Firstly, we introduce algebraic properties of semi-real quaternions. And then, we give some characterizations of semi-real quaternionic…
We study side-lengths of triangles in path metric spaces. We prove that unless such a space X is bounded, or quasi-isometric to line or half-line, every triple of real numbers satisfying the strict triangle inequalities, is realized by the…
Considering the tangent plane at a point to a surface in the four-dimensional Euclidean space, we find an invariant of a pair of two tangents in this plane. If this invariant is zero, the two tangents are said to be conjugate. When the two…
We develop a combinatorial rule to compute the real geometry of type B Schubert curves $S(\lambda_\bullet)$ in the orthogonal Grassmannian $\mathrm{OG}_n$, which are one-dimensional Schubert problems defined with respect to orthogonal flags…
In this paper we survey Eckardt points on a smooth complex cubic threefold with an approach aimed at computing all Eckardt points of a cubic threefold. In addition, we construct cubic threefolds with no Eckardt points but containing triple…
