A triangle center such as the incenter, barycenter, etc., is specified by a function thrice- and cyclically applied on sidelengths and/or angles. Consider the 1d family of 3-periodics in the elliptic billiard, and the loci of its triangle…
We present a universal crease pattern--known in geometry as the tetrakis tiling and in origami as box pleating--that can fold into any object made up of unit cubes joined face-to-face (polycubes). More precisely, there is one universal…
Three circles define each of the Brocard points of a triangle. If one adds the three circles through a pair of vertices and the orthocentre one has nine circles. It is described how each of the nine centres of these circles lies at the…
We revisit here a fundamental result on planar triangulations, namely that the flip distance between two triangulations is upper-bounded by the number of proper intersections between their straight-segment edges. We provide a complete and…
In Lorentzian geometry, limited definition of angles restricts the use of angle bisectors in study of triangles. This paper redefines angle bisectors so that they can be used to study attributes of triangles. Using the new definition, this…
Usual mathematical method for creating trochoids is based on a solid rule that requires a pure rolling motion of a circle along another one. In this vision a trochoid defined as a traced path by an attached point (a non-conceptive issue) to…
By a poly-line drawing of a graph G on n vertices we understand a drawing of G in the plane such that each edge is represented by a polygonal arc joining its two respective vertices. We call a turning point of a polygonal arc the bend. We…
Based on Nielsen fixed point theory and Gr\"{o}bner-Shirshov basis, we obtain a simple method to compute geometric intersection numbers and self-intersection geometric numbers of loops on surfaces.
Images are an important source of information for spacecraft navigation and for three-dimensional reconstruction of observed space objects. Both of these applications take the form of a triangulation problem when the camera has a known…
An "origami" (or flat structure) on a closed oriented surface, $S_g$, of genus $g \geq 2$ is obtained from a finite collection of unit Euclidean squares by gluing each right edge to a left one and each top edge to a bottom one. The main…
Intersection numbers of twisted cocycles arise in mathematics in the field of algebraic geometry. Quite recently, they appeared in physics: Intersection numbers of twisted cocycles define a scalar product on the vector space of Feynman…
We describe a method by which the number of intersections one ellipse makes inside the plane of another can be determined. The method is based on applying a transformation that reverts one ellipse to the unit circle, and examining the…
Given a family of sets on the plane, we say that the family is intersecting if for any two sets from the family their interiors intersect. In this paper, we study intersecting families of triangles with vertices in a given set of points. In…
We present a, hopefully, elementary mathematical treatment of the computational aspects of congruent numbers, such that an amateur could understand the problem and perform their own calculations.
The purpose of this short manuscript is to show that all point constructions that can be done via ruler and compass, can also be done with compass exclusively. If we are using compass and ruler the way we construct new points is by first…
Two tetrahedra are called orthologic if the lines through vertices of one and perpendicular to corresponding faces of the other are intersecting. This is equivalent to the orthogonality of non-corresponding edges. We prove that the…
Se enuncia los principales teoremas empleados en la resoluci'on de tri'angulos oblicu'angulos. Con ellos, se ilustra c'omo resolver los cinco casos de resoluci'on que se presentan, incluyendo algunos caso at'ipicos (cuando se conoce el…
We consider loci of points such that their sum of distances or sum of squared distances to each of the sides of a given triangle is constant. These loci are inspired by Viviani's theorem and its extension. The former locus is a line segment…
We consider arrangements of axis-aligned rectangles in the plane. A geometric arrangement specifies the coordinates of all rectangles, while a combinatorial arrangement specifies only the respective intersection type in which each pair of…
Given a handle decomposition of a 4-manifold with boundary, and an open book decomposition of the boundary, we show how to produce a trisection diagram of a trisection of the 4-manifold inducing the given open book. We do this by making the…
