In this paper we consider the problem of finding pairs of triangles whose sides are perfect squares of integers, and which have a common perimeter and common area. We find two such pairs of triangles, and prove that there exist infinitely…
Berge Conjecture states that every bridgeless cubic graph has 5 perfect matchings such that each edge is contained in at least one of them. In this paper, we show that Berge Conjecture holds for two classes of cubic graphs, cubic graphs…
The Fibonacci cube of dimension n, denoted as $\Gamma$ n , is the subgraph of the n-cube 5 Q n induced by vertices with no consecutive 1's. Ashrafi and his co-authors proved the non-existence of perfect codes in $\Gamma$ n for n $\ge$ 4. As…
We describe a method for bounding the set of exceptional integers not represented by a given additive form in terms of the exceptional set corresponding to a subform. Illustrating our ideas with examples stemming from Waring's problem for…
If $G$ is a bridgeless cubic graph, Fulkerson conjectured that we can find 6 perfect matchings $M_1,...,M_6$ of $G$ with the property that every edge of $G$ is contained in exactly two of them and Berge conjectured that its edge set can be…
The defect of a cubic threefold $X$ with isolated singularities is a global invariant that measures the failure of $\mathbb{Q}$-factoriality. We compute the defect for such cubics in terms of topological data about the curve of lines…
Let $n$ be a positive integer, not a power of two. A \textit{Reinhardt polygon} is a convex $n$-gon that is optimal in three different geometric optimization problems: it has maximal perimeter relative to its diameter, maximal width…
A sublattice of the three-dimensional integer lattice $\mathbb Z^3$ is called cubic sublattice if there exists a basis of the sublattice whose elements are pairwise orthogonal and of equal lengths. We show that for an integer vector…
We discover suprising connections between three seemingly different problems: finding right triangles with rational sides in a non-Euclidean geometry, finding three integers such that the difference of the squares of any two is a square,…
A semibrick is a set of modules satisfying Schur's Lemma, and it is said to be maximal if it is not properly contained in another semibrick. For any finite dimensional algebra $\varLambda$ over an algebracally closed field $K$, we prove…
Fix a non-square integer $k\neq 0$. We show that the number of curves $E_B:y^2=x^3+kB^2$ containing an integral point, where $B$ ranges over positive integers less than $N$, is bounded by $O_k(N(\log N)^{-\frac{1}{2}+\epsilon})$. In…
An example of a cocomplete abelian category that is not complete is constructed.
In [1], finite associative rings wih identity and such that the set of all zero-divisors form and ideal M, called the Jacobson Radical, of cube zero and square non-zero, were constructed for all the characteristics. These rings are…
In this article we present theoretical and computational results on the existence of polyhedral embeddings of graphs. The emphasis is on cubic graphs. We also describe an efficient algorithm to compute all polyhedral embeddings of a given…
A perfect number is a positive integer $N$ such that the sum of all the positive divisors of $N$ equals $2N$, denoted by $\sigma(N) = 2N$. The question of the existence of odd perfect numbers (OPNs) is one of the longest unsolved problems…
It is a $300$ year old counterintuitive observation of Prince Rupert of Rhine that in cube a straight tunnel can be cut, through which a second congruent cube can be passed. Hundred years later P. Nieuwland generalized Rupert's problem and…
A positive definite quadratic form is called perfect, if it is uniquely determined by its arithmetical minimum and the integral vectors attaining it. In this self-contained survey we explain how to enumerate perfect forms in $d$ variables…
A full intrinsic quadric is a normal complete variety with a finitely generated Cox ring defined by a single quadratic relation of full rank. We describe all surfaces of this type explicitly via local Gorenstein indices. As applications, we…
If $N={q^k}{n^2}$ is an odd perfect number given in Eulerian form, then Sorli's conjecture predicts that $k=\nu_{q}(N)=1$. In this article, we give some further results related to this conjecture and those contained in the papers…
In this work we prove that for a compact odd-dimensional orbifold its Euler characteristic is half of the Euler characteristic of its boundary.
