Propp recently introduced regions in the hexagonal grid called benzels and stated several enumerative conjectures about the tilings of benzels using two types of prototiles called stones and bones. We resolve two of his conjectures and…
We introduce and study a new kind of congruent number problem on the right trapezoid.
The initial techniques developed in Euclid's Elements, well before the use of the parallel postulate, are reexamined in order to clarify even the most obscure details, particularly those related to equality, superposition and angle…
This survey consists of two parts. Part 1 is devoted to amoebas. These are images of algebraic subvarieties in the complex torus under the logarithmic moment map. The amoebas have essentially piecewise-linear shape if viewed at large.…
The Longest Edge Bisection of a triangle is performed by joining the midpoint of its longest edge to the opposite vertex. Applying this procedure iteratively produces an infinite family of triangles. Surprisingly, a classical result of…
We consider several appearances of the notion of convexity in Greek antiquity, more specifically in mathematics and optics, in the writings of Aristotle, and in art. The final version of this article will appear in the book `Geometry in…
This is a survey of our research on geometric structures of projective embeddings and includes some topics of our talks in several symposia during 1990-99. We clarify our main problem, which is to construct a kind of geometric composition…
In this paper, we introduce the new class of twisted $B$-splines and study some properties of these B-splines. We also investigate the system of twisted translates and the wavelets corresponding to these twisted $B$-splines.
This is a survey on bi-Lagrangian manifolds, which are symplectic manifolds endowed with two transversal Lagrangian foliations. We also study the non-integrable case (i.e., a symplectic manifold endowed with two transversal Lagrangian…
We study bifurcation from a branch of trivial solutions of semilinear elliptic Dirichlet boundary value problems on a geodesic ball, whose radius is used as the bifurcation parameter. In the proof of our main theorem we obtain in addition a…
In a graph $G=(V,E)$, a bisection $(X,Y)$ is a partition of $V$ into sets $X$ and $Y$ such that $|X|\le |Y|\le |X|+1$. The size of $(X,Y)$ is the number of edges between $X$ and $Y$. In the Max Bisection problem we are given a graph…
In this paper we study the intersection theory on surfaces with abelian quotient singularities and we derive properties of quotients of weighted projective planes. We also use this theory to study weighted blow-ups in order to construct…
The intersection graph of a collection of trapezoids with corner points lying on two parallel lines is called a trapezoid graph. These graphs and their generalizations were applied in various fields, including modeling channel routing…
In this paper, we confirm a conjecture of Laborde-Zubieta on the enumeration of corners in tree-like tableaux. Our proof is based on Aval, Boussicault and Nadeau's bijection between tree-like tableaux and permutation tableaux, and Corteel…
We provide a new characterisation of the decades old open problem of extending bilipschitz mappings given on a Euclidean separated net. In particular, this allows for the complete positive solution of the open problem in dimension two.…
Mathematical concepts and results have often been given a long history, stretching far back in time. Yet recent work in the history of mathematics has tended to focus on local topics, over a short term-scale, and on the study of ephemeral…
In this work we extend the Lu-Weinstein construction of double symplectic groupoids to any Lie bialgebroid such that its associated Courant algebroid is transitive and its Atiyah algebroid integrable. We illustrate this result by showing…
This paper is about the relation of the geometry of Lie groupoids over a fixed compact manifold and the geometry of their (infinite-dimensional) bisection Lie groups. In the first part of the paper we investigate the relation of the…
Let $T = (T^{\textstyle \ast}, T^{\scriptscriptstyle \triangle})$ be a spherical latin bitrade. With each $a=(a_1,a_2,a_3)\in T^{\textstyle \ast}$ associate a set of linear equations $\eq(T,a)$ of the form $b_1+b_2=b_3$, where $b =…
Here I present several theorems about trapezoids tilings. The first one is related to trapezoids with rational base relation, the other ones are related to those with base relation from quadratic number field.
