In this paper, we prove that the Euclidean distance between two independent random vectors uniformly distributed on $l_p^n$-balls $(1 \leq p \leq \infty)$ or on its boundary satisfies a central limit theorem as $n$ tends to $\infty$. Also,…

We give a new and elementary proof that the number of elastic collisions of a finite number of balls in the Euclidean space is finite. We show that if there are $n$ balls of equal masses and radii 1, and at the time of a collision between…

By a simple method we prove the following conjecture on Sharygin triangles: there is only one Sharygin triangle (up to an isometry) whose vertices are chosen from the set of vertices of a regular polygon inscribed in a circle of radius 1.

Suppose that there exists a discrete subset $X$ of a complete, connected, $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $M$ such that the Riemannian distances between points of $X$ correspond to the Euclidean distances of a net in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$.…

We prove that if a convex set in Cn contains two inscribed complex ellipsoid of maximal volume then one is a translate of the other. On the other hand, the circumscribed complex elipsoid of minimal volume is unique. As application we prove…

In this paper, we prove two theorems concerning the sums of squared distances between points on a unit $n$-sphere that generalize two facts previously known about the case where the points are the vertices of a regular polygon. The first…

Let $X$ be a finite set in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$. If the squared distance between any two distinct points in $X$ is an odd integer, then the cardinality of $X$ is bounded above by $d+2$, as shown by Rosenfeld (1997) or Smith…

First, we fill in key gaps in Steiner's nice characterization of the most nearly circular ellipse which passes through the vertices of a convex quadrilateral, D. Steiner proved that there is only one pair of conjugate directions, M1 and M2,…

Haj\'os conjecture asserts that a simple Eulerian graph on n vertices can be decomposed into at most (n - 1)/2 cycles. The conjecture is only proved for graph classes in which every element contains vertices of degree 2 or 4. We develop new…

Dorpalen-Barry et al. proved Elser's conjecture about sign of Elser's number by interpreting them as certain sums of reduced Euler characteristics of an abstract simplicial complex known as $U$-nucleus complex. We prove a conjecture posed…

Symplectic and Finsler geometry are used to settle a conjecture of Sch\"affer stating that the girth of a normed space--the infimum of the lengths of all closed, rectifiable, centrally symmetric curves on its unit sphere--equals the girth…

We prove that if a complete connected $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $M$ has radial sectional curvature at a base point $p\in M$ bounded from below by the radial curvature function of a two-sphere of revolution $\widetilde M$ belonging…

For a compact set $A$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ the Hausdorff distance from $A$ to $\text{conv}(A)$ is defined by \begin{equation*} d(A):=\sup_{a\in\text{conv}(A)}\inf_{x\in A}|x-a|, \end{equation*} where for $x=(x_1,\dots,x_n)\in\mathbb{R}^n$ we…

A finite simple graph is called a 2-graph if all of its unit spheres S(x) are cyclic graphs of length 4 or larger. A 2-graph G is Eulerian if all vertex degrees of G are even. An edge refinement of a graph splits an edge (a,b) to two edges…

Let x and y be two (not necessarily distinct) points on a closed Riemannian manifold M of dimension n. According to a celebrated theorem by J.P. Serre there exist infinitely many geodesics between x and y. The length of the shortest of…

Let $G$ be a graph of radius $r$ and diameter $d$ with $d\leq 2r-2$. We show that $G$ contains a cycle of length at least $4r-2d$, i.e. for its circumference it holds $c(G)\geq 4r-2d$. Moreover, for all positive integers $r$ and $d$ with…

We discuss two dimensional N-extended supersymmetry in Euclidean signature and its R-symmetry. For N=2, the R-symmetry is SO(2)\times SO(1,1), so that only an A-twist is possible. To formulate a B-twist, or to construct Euclidean N=2 models…
