We review scale-discretized wavelets on the sphere, which are directional and allow one to probe oriented structure in data defined on the sphere. Furthermore, scale-discretized wavelets allow in practice the exact synthesis of a signal…

The concept of spherical $t$-design, which is a finite subset of the unit sphere, was introduced by Delsarte-Goethals-Seidel (1977). The concept of Euclidean $t$-design, which is a two step generalization of spherical design in the sense…

This paper is concerned with the use of the stereographic projection to map the points of a design on the sphere in three dimensions onto a two-dimensional stereogram. Details of the projection and its attendant stereogram are given and the…

This short paper is concerned with the use of spherical t-designs as optimal designs for the spherical harmonic regression model in three dimensions over a range of specified criteria. The nature of the designs is explored and their…

In this paper, we study spherical $T$-designs and their harmonic strength $\text{Hst}(X)$ on the unit circle $S^1$. For any finite set $T\subset\mathbb{N}$, we constructively demonstrate the existence of a finite design $X$ such that…

In this paper, we contribute toward a classification of two-variable polynomials by classifying (up to an automorphism of $C^2$) polynomials whose Newton polygon is either a triangle or a line segment. Our classification has several…

We show that the following geometric properties of the motion of discrete and continuous curves select integrable dynamics: i) the motion of the curve takes place in the N dimensional sphere of radius R, ii) the curve does not stretch…

We give some new explicit examples of putatively optimal projective spherical designs. i.e., ones for which there is numerical evidence that they are of minimal size. These form continuous families, and so have little apparent symmetry in…

We have identified some necessary conditions for the existence of rigid sphere designs. In particular, we have successfully resolved the conjecture proposed by [Ban87]; Given fixed positive integers t and d, we show that there exist only…

The consideration of the so-called rotation minimizing frames allows for a simple and elegant characterization of plane and spherical curves in Euclidean space via a linear equation relating the coefficients that dictate the frame motion.…

We consider $n$-folding triangular curves, or $n$-folding t-curves, obtained by folding $n$ times a strip of paper in $3$, each time possibly left then right or right then left, and unfolding it with $\pi /3$ angles. An example is the well…

The torus T of projective space also acts on the Hilbert scheme of subschemes of projective space. The T-graph of the Hilbert scheme has vertices the fixed points of this action, and edges connecting pairs of fixed points in the closure of…

We analyse the existence of closed timelike curves in spacetimes which possess an isometry. In particular we check which discrete quotients of such spaces lead to closed timelike curves. As a by-product of our analysis, we prove that the…

Given a smooth curve of genus 2 embedded in P^(d-2) with a complete linear system of degree d>=6, we list all types of rational normal scrolls arising from linear systems g^1_2 and g^1_3 on C. Furthermore, we give a description of the ideal…

This paper provides triangular spherical designs for the complex unit sphere $\Omega^d$ by exploiting the natural correspondence between the complex unit sphere in $d$ dimensions and the real unit sphere in $2d-1$. The existence of…

We establish several fundamental properties of analysis-suitable T-splines which are important for design and analysis. First, we characterize T-spline spaces and prove that the space of smooth bicubic polynomials, defined over the extended…

We consider here the $3$-sphere $\mathbf S^3$ seen as the boundary at infinity of the complex hyperbolic plane $\mathbf{H}^2_{\mathbf C}$. It comes equipped with a contact structure and two classes of special curves. First $\mathbf…

In this paper, we define some new associated curves as integral curves of a vector field generated by Frenet vectors of tangent indicatrix of a curve in Euclidean 3-space. We give some relationships between curvatures of these curves. By…
