If $c, \overline c\colon [a,b]\to \mathbb R^2$ are two convex planar curve parameterized by affine arc length and $A\colon [a,b]\to [0,\infty)$ is the area bounded by the restriction $c\big|_{[a,s]}$ and the segment between $c(a)$ and…
The lattice $A_n^*$ is an important lattice because of its covering properties in low dimensions. Clarkson \cite{Clarkson1999:Anstar} described an algorithm to compute the nearest lattice point in $A_n^*$ that requires $O(n\log{n})$…
We describe an extremal property of the hexagonal lattice $\Lambda \subset \mathbb{R}^2$. Let $p$ denote the circumcenter of its fundamental triangle (a so-called deep hole) and let $A_r$ denote the set of lattice points that are at…
We address the problem of the continuum limit for a system of Hausdorff lattices (namely lattices of isolated points) approximating a topological space $M$. The correct framework is that of projective systems. The projective limit is a…
We give a sharp upper bound on the multiplicity of a fake weighted projective space with at worst canonical singularities. This is equivalent to giving a sharp upper bound on the index of the sublattice generated by the vertices of a…
An effective estimate for the lattice point discrepancy of ellipsoids of rotation. This paper provides an explicit bound, with numerical constants, for the lattice point discrepancy (= number of integer points minus volume) of an ellipsoid…
We prove functional limit theorems for lattice point counting for affine and congruence lattices using the method of moments. Our main tools are higher moment formulae for Siegel transforms on the corresponding homogeneous spaces, which we…
Gardner, Gronchi and Zong posed the problem to find a discrete analogue of M. Meyer's inequality bounding the volume of a convex body from below by the geometric mean of the volumes of its slices with the coordinate hyperplanes. Motivated…
We present a novel feasibility criteria for the finite intersection of convex sets given by inequalities. This criteria allows us to easily assert the feasibility by analyzing the unconstrained minimum of a speci?fic convex function, that…
We show that for those lattices of Voronoi's first kind with known obtuse superbasis, a closest lattice point can be computed in $O(n^4)$ operations where $n$ is the dimension of the lattice. To achieve this a series of relevant lattice…
We denote by Conc(L) the semilattice of all finitely generated congruences of a lattice L. For varieties (i.e., equational classes) V and W of lattices such that V is contained neither in W nor its dual, and such that every simple member of…
I present here another example of a lattice fibration, a discrete version of the highest dimensional Hopf fibration: $S^{7}\longrightarrow S^{15} \longrightarrow S^{8}$.
We give a bound on the probability that a randomly chosen affine unimodular lattice has large holes, and a similar bound on the probability of large holes in the spectrum of a random flat torus. We discuss various motivations and…
The problem of percolation along sites of square lattice is studied. The number of contours being external boundaries for finite clusters has been estimated using geometric considerations. This estimation makes it possible to determine more…
We show that the set of all measures on any measurable space is a complete lattice, i.e. every collection of measures has both a greatest lower bound and a least upper bound.
We consider the distance function from an arbitrary point $p$ on a flat surface, and determine the set $F_{p}$ of all \emph{farthest points} (i.e., points at maximal distance) from $p$.
In this note, we derive an asymptotically sharp upper bound on the number of lattice points in terms of the volume of centrally symmetric convex bodies. Our main tool is a generalization of a result of Davenport that bounds the number of…
A detailed combinatorial analysis of planar convex lattice polygonal lines is presented. This makes it possible to answer an open question of Vershik regarding the existence of a limit shape when the number of vertices is constrained.
Closely packed conformations of helices formed on the ideal rope are considered. The pitch versus radius relations which define a closely packed helix are determined. The relations stem from the turn-to-turn distance and curvature limiting…
We give upper bounds on the minimal degree of a model in $\mathbb{P}^2$ and the minimal bidegree of a model in $\mathbb{P}^1 \times \mathbb{P}^1$ of the curve defined by a given Laurent polynomial, in terms of the combinatorics of the…
