Extending previous results on a characterization of all equilateral triangle in space having vertices with integer coordinates ("in $\mathbb Z^3$"), we look at the problem of characterizing all regular polyhedra (Platonic Solids) with the…
Skeletal polyhedra and polygonal complexes in ordinary Euclidean 3-space are finite or infinite 3-periodic structures with interesting geometric, combinatorial, and algebraic properties. They can be viewed as finite or infinite 3-periodic…
Let $\mathcal{E}_d^{(s)}$ denote the set of coefficient vectors $(a_1,\dots,a_d)\in \mathbb{R}^d$ of contractive polynomials $x^d+a_1x^{d-1}+\dots+a_d\in \mathbb{R}[x]$ that have exactly $s$ pairs of complex conjugate roots and let…
The set \[ \overline{\mathbb{E}}= \{ x \in {\mathbb{C}}^3: \quad 1-x_1 z - x_2 w + x_3 zw \neq 0 \mbox{ whenever } |z| < 1, |w| < 1 \} \] is called the tetrablock and has intriguing complex-geometric properties. It is polynomially convex,…
We classify rational triangles which unfold to Veech surfaces when the largest angle is at least $\frac{3\pi}{4}$. When the largest angle is greater than $\frac{2\pi}{3}$, we show that the unfolding is not Veech except possibly if it…
We generalize the work of Dem'janenko and Silverman for the Fermat quartics, effectively determining the rational points on the curves $x^{2m}+ax^m+ay^m+y^{2m}=b$ whenever the ranks of some companion hyperelliptic Jacobians are at most one.…
In the analysis of three-dimensional biological microstructures such as organoids, microscopy frequently yields two-dimensional optical sections without access to their orientation. Motivated by the question of whether such random planar…
The tetrahedron algebra $\boxtimes$ is an infinite-dimensional Lie algebra defined by generators $\{x_{ij} \mid i, j \in \{0, 1, 2, 3\}, i \neq j\}$ and some relations, including the Dolan-Grady relations. These twelve generators are called…
A computation shows that there are 77 (up to scalar shifts) possible pairs of integer coefficient polynomials of degree five, having roots of unity as their roots, and satisfying the conditions of Beukers and Heckman [1], so that the…
It is known that we can always 3-triangulate (i.e. divide into tetrahedra) convex polyhedra but not always non-convex ones. Polyhedra topologically equivalent to sphere with $p$ handles, shortly $p$-toroids, could not be convex. So, it is…
This paper continues the study initiated in "The aithmetic of Triangles." We begin by examining a set of similar tetrahedra with parallel sides, together with a set of points in three-dimensional space. It turns out that the set…
In this article we determine a generating set of rational invariants of minimal cardinality for the action of the orthogonal group $\mathrm{O}_3$ on the space $\mathbb{R}[x,y,z]_{2d}$ of ternary forms of even degree $2d$. The construction…
We classify spherical quadrilaterals up to isometry in the case when one inner angle is a multiple of pi while the other three are not. This is equivalent to classification of Heun's equations with real parameters and one apparent…
We prove that every simple polygon contains a degree 3 tree encompassing a prescribed set of vertices. We give tight bounds on the minimal number of degree 3 vertices. We apply this result to reprove a result from Bose et al. that every set…
It is known that a connected simple graph $G$ associates a simple polytope $P_G$ called a graph associahedron in Euclidean space. In this paper we show that the set of facet vectors of $P_G$ forms a root system if and only if $G$ is a cycle…
Let $\Theta=(\theta_{j,k})_{3\times 3}$ be a non-degenerate real skew-symmetric $3\times 3$ matrix, where $\theta_{j,k}\in [0,1).$ For any $\varepsilon>0$, we prove that there exists $\delta>0$ satisfying the following: if $v_1,v_2,v_3$ are…
We define a ring whose elements are rational functions, whose addition is polynomial multiplication, and whose multiplication is a convolution operation. It is then show that this ring's endomorphisms exhibit a strong classification.…
We formulate effective necessary and sufficient conditions to identify the symmetry class of an elasticity tensor, a fourth-order tensor which is the cornerstone of the theory of elasticity and a toy model for linear constitutive laws in…
We review 28 uniform partitions of 3-space in order to find out which of them have graphs (skeletons) embeddable isometrically (or with scale 2) into some cubic lattice ${\bf Z}_n$. We also consider some relatives of those 28 partitions,…
We give a proof of a Conjecture of Walker which states that one can recover the lengths of the bars of a circular linkage from the cohomology ring of the configuration space. For a large class of length vectors, this has been shown by…
