A graph is closed when its vertices have a labeling by [n] with a certain property first discovered in the study of binomial edge ideals. In this article, we explore various aspects of closed graphs, including the number of closed labelings…
Let $k$ be an arbitrary field, and C be a curve in A^n defined parametrically by x_1=f_1(t),...,x_n=f_n(t), where f_1,...,f_n\in k[t]. A necessary and sufficient condition for the two function fields k(t) and k(f_1,...,f_n) to be same is…
This paper focuses on intersection of closed curves on translation surfaces. Namely, we investigate the question of determining the intersection of two closed curves of a given length on such surfaces. This question has been investigated in…
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.
Calculating and categorizing the similarity of curves is a fundamental problem which has generated much recent interest. However, to date there are no implementations of these algorithms for curves on surfaces with provable guarantees on…
We investigate geometric properties of surfaces given by certain formulae. In particular, we calculate the singular curvature and the limiting normal curvature of such surfaces along the set of singular points consisting of singular points…
The order type of a point set in $R^d$ maps each $(d{+}1)$-tuple of points to its orientation (e.g., clockwise or counterclockwise in $R^2$). Two point sets $X$ and $Y$ have the same order type if there exists a mapping $f$ from $X$ to $Y$…
In this paper, we consider the automorphisms of fine curve graphs restricted to continuously $k$-differentiable curves. We show that for closed surfaces with genus at least 2, they are induced by homeomorphisms of the surface.
We give a linear-time algorithm that checks for isomorphism between two 0-1 matrices that obey the circular-ones property. This algorithm leads to linear-time isomorphism algorithms for related graph classes, including Helly circular-arc…
We formulate a simple algorithm for computing global exact symmetries of closed discrete curves in plane. The method is based on a suitable trigonometric interpolation of vertices of the given polyline and consequent computation of the…
A type system combining type application, constants as types, union types (associative, commutative and idempotent) and recursive types has recently been proposed for statically typing path polymorphism, the ability to define functions that…
We consider ruled surfaces with finite multiplicity. We study behaviors of the striction curves and the singularities of the ruled surfaces. We also give geometric meanings of invariants related to the ruled surfaces.
We classify closed curves on a once-punctured torus with a single self-intersection from a combinatorial perspective. We determine the number of closed curves with given word-length and with zero, one, and arbitrary self-intersections.
We study the problem of finding neck-like features on a surface. Applications for such cuts include robotics, mesh segmentation, and algorithmic applications. We provide a new definition for a surface bottleneck -- informally, it is the…
We examine pairs of closed plane curves that have the same closing property as two conic sections in Poncelet's porism. We show how the vertex curve can be computed for a given envelope and vice versa. Our formulas are universal in the…
We classify real families of minimal degree rational curves that cover an embedded rational surface. A corollary is that if the projective closure of a smooth surface is not biregular isomorphic to the projective closure of the unit-sphere,…
The discovery of knotting in proteins and other macromolecular chains has motivated researchers to more carefully consider how to identify and classify knots in open arcs. Most definitions classify knotting in open arcs by constructing an…
We classify smooth surfaces whose higher cohomologies of i-forms for all i vanish. We show that if such a surface is not affine, then it has essentially two possibilities.
A notion of dual curve for pseudoholomorphic curves in 4--manifolds turns out to be possible only if the notion of almost complex structure structure is slightly generalized. The resulting structure is as easy (perhaps easier) to work with,…
This final degree project is devoted to study the topological classification of complex plane curves. These are subsets of $\mathbb{C}^2$ that can be described by an equation $f(x,y)=0$. Loosely speaking, curves are said to be equivalent in…
