We prove that a simple closed plane curve with curvature at most 1 and diameter at least 4, surrounds two disjoint open unit disks. We also pose an open question relating the diameter lower bound to the length of the curve.

We investigate vertices for plane curves with singular points. As plane curves with singular points, we consider Legendre curves (respectively, Legendre immersions) in the unit tangent bundle over the Euclidean plane and frontals…

A multivariate Gauss-Lucas theorem is proved, sharpening and generalizing previous results on this topic. The theorem is stated in terms of a seemingly new notion of convexity. Applications to multivariate stable polynomials are given.

We give a geometric approach to the proof of the $\lambda$-lemma. In particular, we point out the role pseudoconvexity plays in the proof.

The Moon often appears larger near the perceptual horizon and smaller high in the sky though the visual angle subtended is invariant. We show how this illusion results from the optimization of a projective geometrical frame for conscious…

In this paper, we show the new fixed point theorem in metric spaces. Furthermore, for this fixed point theorem, we apply to the Collatz conjecture.

In this note, we give an alternate proof of the multinomial theorem using a probabilistic approach. Although the multinomial theorem is basically a combinatorial result, our proof may be simpler for a student familiar with only basic…

Newton's quadrilateral theorem can be phrased as follows. If H is a circle that is tangent to the four extended sides of a non-parallelogram quadrilateral Q, the center of H lies on the Newton line of Q. We prove that the theorem remains…
