An orthogonal polygon is called an ortho-unit polygon if its vertices have integer coordinates, and all of its edges have length one. In this paper we prove that any ortho-unit polygon with $n \geq 12$ vertices can be guarded with at most…

We study the problem of rotating a simple polygon to contain the maximum number of elements from a given point set in the plane. We consider variations of this problem where the rotation center is a given point or lies on a line segment, a…
The central component of a polygon triangulation is defined as the triangle or diameter that contain its geometric center. More generally, every polygon dissection contains a central component. Using this notion, we derive new recurrences…
A theorem of H\"ubner states that non-round boundary points of the numerical range of a linear operator, i.e. points where the boundary has infinite curvature, are contained in the spectrum of the operator. In this note, answering a…
We completely characterize Birkhoff-James orthogonality with respect to numerical radius norm in the space of bounded linear operators on a complex Hilbert space. As applications of the results obtained, we estimate lower bounds of…
We consider orthogonal polynomials on the surface of a double cone or a hyperboloid of revolution, either finite or infinite in axis direction, and on the solid domain bounded by such a surface and, when the surface is finite, by…
Let T be a quasidiagonal operator on a separable Hilbert space. Then T is the norm limit of operators, each of which generate a finite dimensional C*-algebra, if and only if the C*-algebra generated by T is exact.
We show that the maximal numerical range of an operator has a non-empty intersection with the boundary of its numerical range if and only if the operator is normaloid. A description of this intersection is also given.
The tridiagonal representation approach is an algebraic method for solving second order differential wave equations. Using this approach in the solution of quantum mechanical problems, we encounter two new classes of orthogonal polynomials…
In this paper we prove that the simplest band representations of unitary operators on a Hilbert space are five-diagonal. Orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle play an essential role in the development of this result, and also provide a…
Proper splittings of operators are commonly used to study the convergence of iterative processes. In order to approximate solutions of operator equations, in this article we deal with proper splittings of closed range bounded linear…
