We investigate a recent semantics for intermediate (and modal) logics in terms of polyhedra. The main result is a finite axiomatisation of the intermediate logic of the class of all polytopes -- i.e., compact convex polyhedra -- denoted PL.…
A convex geometry is finite zero-closed closure system that satisfies the anti-exchange property. Complexity results are given for two open problems related to representations of convex geometries using implication bases. In particular, the…
Two planar sets are circularly separable if there exists a circle enclosing one of the sets and whose open interior disk does not intersect the other set. This paper studies two problems related to circular separability. A linear-time…
Laman graphs model planar frameworks which are rigid for a general choice of distances between the vertices. There are finitely many ways, up to isometries, to realize a Laman graph in the plane. In a recent paper we provide a recursion…
We study a construction, which produces surfaces $Y \subset P_3$ with cusps. For example we obtain surfaces of degree six with 18, 24 or 27 three-divisible cusps. For sextic surfaces in a particular family of up to 30 cusps the codes of…
We show that the maximal number of planes in a complex smooth cubic fourfold in ${\mathbb P}^5$ is $405$, realized by the Fermat cubic only; the maximal number of real planes in a real smooth cubic fourfold is $357$, realized by the…
We show that the problem to decide whether two (convex) polytopes, given by their vertex-facet incidences, are combinatorially isomorphic is graph isomorphism complete, even for simple or simplicial polytopes. On the other hand, we give a…
We determine the condition on a given lens space having a realization as a closure of homology cobordism over a planar surface with a given number of boundary components. As a corollary, we see that every lens space is represented as a…
Unfolding a convex polyhedron into a simple planar polygon is a well-studied problem. In this paper, we study the limits of unfoldability by studying nonconvex polyhedra with the same combinatorial structure as convex polyhedra. In…
Compact sets in constructive mathematics capture our intuition of what computable subsets of the plane (or any other complete metric space) ought to be. A good representation of compact sets provides an efficient means of creating and…
Motivated by a connection with the factorization of multivariate polynomials, we study integral convex polytopes and their integral decompositions in the sense of the Minkowski sum. We first show that deciding decomposability of integral…
We prove conditions for the existence of a continuous linear right inverse for a surjective convolution operator in spaces of germs of analytic functions on convex subsets of the complex plane. Considered convex sets have a countable…
We investigate when a computable automorphism of a computable field can be effectively extended to a computable automorphism of its (computable) algebraic closure. We then apply our results and techniques to study effective embeddings of…
Extension problems for polynomial valuations on different cones of convex functions are investigated. It is shown that for the classes of functions under consideration, the extension problem reduces to a simple geometric obstruction on the…
Representation of convex geometry as an appropriate join of compatible total orderings of the base set can be achieved, when closure operator of convex geometry is algebraic, or finitary. This bears to the finite case proved by P.H.~Edelman…
We investigate the regularity of the marginals onto hyperplanes for sets of finite perimeter. We prove, in particular, that if a set of finite perimeter has log-concave marginals onto a.e. hyperplane then the set is convex.
Ghomi proved that every convex polyhedron could be stretched via an affine transformation so that it has an edge-unfolding to a net [Gho14]. A net is a simple planar polygon; in particular, it does not self-overlap. One can view his result…
We investigate algorithmic control of a large swarm of mobile particles (such as robots, sensors, or building material) that move in a 2D workspace using a global input signal (such as gravity or a magnetic field). We show that a maze of…
We show that every $3$-dimensional convex body can be covered by $14$ smaller homothetic copies. The previous result was $16$ copies established by Papadoperakis in 1999, while a conjecture by Hadwiger is $8$. We modify Papadoperakis's…
We prove that for any convex polygon $S$ with at least four sides, or a concave one with no parallel sides, and any $m>0$, there is an $m$-fold covering of the plane with homothetic copies of $S$ that cannot be decomposed into two…
