Abstrct: In this note, by considering fractionally linear functions over a finite field and consequently developing an abstract sequence, we study some of its properties.
Motivated by Elementary Problem B-1172 in the Fibonacci Quarterly (vol. 53, no. 3, pg. 273), formulas for the areas of triangles and other polygons having vertices with coordinates taken from various sequences of integers are obtained. The…
We show that 4-connected plane triangulations can be redrawn such that edges are represented by straight segments and the vertices are covered by a set of at most $\sqrt{2n}$ lines each of them horizontal or vertical. The same holds for all…
We discuss the cross-ratio map of planar quadrilateral linkages, also in the case when one of the links is telescopic. Most of our results are valid for a planar quadrilateral linkage with generic lengths of the sides. In particular, we…
Using combinatorial methods, we derive several formulas for the volume of convex bodies obtained by intersecting a unit hypercube with a halfspace, or with a hyperplane of codimension 1, or with a flat defined by two parallel hyperplanes.…
We analyze correlation functions in a toy model of a random geometry interacting with matter. We show that in general the connected correlator will contain a long-range scaling part which is in some sense a remnant of the disconnected part.…
We discuss solutions of several questions concerning the geometry of conformal planes.
A projective rectangle is like a projective plane that has different lengths in two directions. We develop the basic theory of projective rectangles including incidence properties, projective subplanes, configuration counts, a partial…
We study three covering problems in the plane. Our original motivation for these problems come from trajectory analysis. The first is to decide whether a given set of line segments can be covered by up to four unit-sized, axis-parallel…
We consider the problem of testing, for a given set of planar regions $\cal R$ and an integer $k$, whether there exists a convex shape whose boundary intersects at least $k$ regions of $\cal R$. We provide a polynomial time algorithm for…
We study the lattices of algebraic and transcendental cycles of cubic fourfolds.
We study the maximum number of straight-line segments connecting $n$ points in convex position in the plane, so that each segment intersects at most $k$ others. This question can also be framed as the maximum number of edges of an outer…
A $1.5$D terrain is a simple polygon bounded by a line segment $\ell$ and a polygonal chain monotone with respect to the line segment $\ell$. Usually, $\ell$ is chosen aligned to the $x$-axis, and is called the base of the terrain. In this…
We study parallel surfaces and dual surfaces of cuspidal edges. We give concrete forms of principal curvature and principal direction for cuspidal edges. Moreover, we define ridge points for cuspidal edges by using those. We clarify…
We interpret a normal surface in a (singular) three-manifold in terms of the homology of a chain complex. This allows us to study the relation between normal surfaces and their quadrilateral co-ordinates. Specifically, we give a proof of an…
We study rationality problems for smooth complete intersections of two quadrics. We focus on the three-dimensional case, with a view toward understanding the invariants governing the rationality of a geometrically rational threefold over a…
This paper explores and proves the one-seventh area triangle using a purely algebraic approach as opposed to a geometric one. A triangle set purely in the complex plane is used so that we can utilise features of the complex number system to…
A projective rectangle is like a projective plane that may have different lengths in two directions. We develop properties of the graph of lines, in which adjacency means having a common point, especially its strong regularity and clique…
We give a statement on extension with estimates of convex functions defined on a linear subspace, inspired by similar extension results concerning metrics on positive line bundles
The Links-Quivers Correspondence predicts that all the symmetric (or antisymmetric) colored HOMFLY-PT polynomials of a link can be recovered from a finite amount of data (a quiver) associated to the link. We give a new geometric proof of…
