One considers geometry with the intransitive equaivalence relation. Such a geometry is a physical geometry, i.e. it is described completely by the world function, which is a half of the squared distance function. The physical geometry…

Detecting polygons defined by a set of line segments in a plane is an important step in analyzing vector drawings. This paper presents an approach combining several algorithms to detect basic polygons from arbitrary line segments. The…

The famous Erd\H{o}s distinct distances problem asks the following: how many distinct distances must exist between a set of $n$ points in the plane? There are many generalisations of this question that ask one to consider different spaces…

Computing the Fr\'{e}chet distance for surfaces is a surprisingly hard problem and the only known algorithm is limited to computing it between flat surfaces. We adapt this algorithm to create one for computing the Fr\'{e}chet distance for a…

A recent paper showed how to find sets of finite affine or projective planes constructed on a common set of points, so that lines of one plane meet lines of a different plane in at most two points. In this paper, those results are…

We prove inequalities relating the absolute value of the determinant of n+1 linearly independent unit vectors in an n+1 dimensional complex vector space and the projective distances from the vertices to the hyperplanes containing the…

In case of a standard form vN-algebra, the Bures distance is the natural distance between the fibres of implementing vectors at normal positive linear forms. Thereby, it is well-known that to each two normal positive linear forms…

Our main theoretical result is that, if a simple polytope has a pair of complementary vertices (i.e., two vertices with no facets in common), then it has at least two such pairs, which can be chosen to be disjoint. Using this result, we…

Map vertices of a graph to (not necessarily distinct) points of the plane so that two adjacent vertices are mapped at least a unit distance apart. The plane-width of a graph is the minimum diameter of the image of the vertex set over all…

It is shown that given a set of $N$ points in the plane or on the sphere, there is a subset of size $\gtrsim N^{1/3}/\log N$ with all pairwise distances between points distinct.

We investigate the maximum number of intersections between two polygons with p and q vertices, respectively, in the plane. The cases where p or q is even or the polygons do not have to be simple are quite easy and already known, but when p…

We geometrically analyze the problem of estimating parameters related to the shape and size of a two-dimensional target object on the plane by using randomly distributed distance sensors whose locations are unknown. Based on the analysis…

A 2-dimensional point-line framework is a collection of points and lines in the plane which are linked by pairwise constraints that fix some angles between pairs of lines and also some point-line and point-point distances. It is rigid if…

For two points in the closure of a simple polygon $P$, we say that they see each other in $P$ if the line segment uniting them does not intersect the exterior of $P$. The visibility graph of $P$ is the graph whose vertex set is the vertex…
