If $ABC$ is a given triangle in the plane, $P$ is any point not on the extended sides of $ABC$ or its anticomplementary triangle, $Q$ is the complement of the isotomic conjugate of $P$ with respect to $ABC$, $DEF$ is the cevian triangle of…
The Descartes circle theorem states that if four circles are mutually tangent with disjoint intersion, then their curvatures (or "bends) b_j = 1/r_j satisfy the relation (b_1 + b_2 + b_3 + b_4)^2 = 2(b_1^2 + b_2^2 + b_3^2 + b_4^2). We show…
We find explicit formulas for the radii and locations of the circles in all the optimally dense packings of two, three or four equal circles on any flat torus, defined to be the quotient of the Euclidean plane by the lattice generated by…
The Grassmannian admits an action by a finite cyclic group via the cyclic shift map. We give a simple description of the points fixed by each element of this cyclic group, extending Karp's description of the points fixed by the cyclic shift…
Lines and circles pose significant scalability challenges in synthetic geometry. A line with $n$ points implies ${n \choose 3}$ collinearity atoms, or alternatively, when lines are represented as functions, equality among ${n \choose 2}$…
We give a detailed calculation for the Hamiltonian of single galileon field theory, keeping track of all the surface terms. We calculate the energy of static, spherically symmetric configuration of the single galileon field at cubic order…
In an earlier work, we proposed a generalization for the Apollonian packing in arbitrary dimensions and showed that the resulting object in four, five, and six dimensions have properties consistent with the Apollonian circle and sphere…
The solid angle subtended by a right circular cylinder at a point source located at an arbitrary position generally consists of a sum of two terms: that defined by the cylindrical surface ($\Omega_{cyl}$) and the other by either of the end…
In this paper we give two different proofs of Bobenko and Springborn's theorem of circle pattern: there exists a hyperbolic (or Euclidean) circle pattern with proscribed intersection angles and cone angles on a cellular decomposed surface…
We investigate regions formed by cylinders of circles of fixed radii. We investigate graphs obtained by collapsing each level set of the functions represented by the natural projections of them to the $1$-dimensional line. Some specific…
In mathematical physics the Galois top, introduced by S. Adlaj, possesses a fixed point on one of two Galois axes through its center of mass. This heavy top has two algebraic motion invariants and an additional transcendental…
In this note a definition of umbilic point at infinity is proposed, at least for surfaces that are homogeneous polynomial graphs over a plane in Euclidean 3-space. This is a stronger definition than that of Toponogov in his study of…
A surface in Euclidean space $\r^3$ is said to be an $\alpha$-stationary surface if it is a critical point of the energy $\int_\Sigma|p|^\alpha$, where $\alpha\in\r$. We prove that all ruled $\alpha$-stationary surfaces are vector planes…
The Pythagorean Theorem has been proved in hundreds of ways, yet it inspires fresh insights through geometry and trigonometry. In this paper, we offer a new proof based on three circles that circumscribe the sides of a right triangle.…
We generalize the Galileon duality to any single scalar field Lagrangian coupled locally to any matter field. Under the duality, a generalized Galileon maps into another generalized Galileon via a one parameter group of transformations,…
Main Theorem. Two parabols have four common points. There exists a circle tangent to the sides of the obtained parabolic quadrilateral if and only if the diagonals of this quadrilateral are orthogonal. The proof of the Main Theorem is…
In this article I conduct a short review of the proofs of the area inside a circle. These include intuitive as well as rigorous analytic proofs. This discussion is important not just from mathematical view point but also because…
We prove that over a generic Poncelet triangle family, the locus of the circumcenter of an inversive triangle is a conic. Additionally, we prove an earlier conjecture: over generic Poncelet triangles, two unique points exist which maintain…
A classical result of A.D. Alexandrov states that a connected compact smooth $n-$dimensional manifold without boundary, embedded in $\Bbb R^{n+1}$, and such that its mean curvature is constant, is a sphere. Here we study the problem of…
Let J denote a simple closed curve in the plane. Let points a, b, c, d \in J occur in this order when traversing J in a counterclockwise direction. Define p(a,b,c,d) to be the ratio of ab*cd+ad*bc to ac*bd, where zw denotes distance between…
