In this paper we extend the notion of a Lorentz cone. We call a closed convex set isotone projection set with respect to a pointed closed convex cone if the projection onto the set is isotone (i.e., monotone) with respect to the order…

We define convex projective structures on 2D surfaces with holes and investigate their moduli space. We prove that this moduli space is canonically identified with the higher Teichmuller space for the group PSL_3 defined in our paper…

This paper considers an extension of origami geometry to the case of "folding" a three dimensional (3D) space along a plane. First, all possible incidence constraints between given points, lines and planes are analyzed by using the geometry…

We investigate harmonic maps in the context of isometric embeddings when the target space is Ricci-flat and has codimension one. With the help of the Campbell-Magaard theorem we show that any $n$-dimensional ($n\geqslant 3$) Lorentzian…

We give a short proof of the contractibility of the space of geodesic triangulations with fixed combinatorial type of a convex polygon in the Euclidean plane. Moreover, for any $n>0$, we show that there exists a space of geodesic…

We describe the inverse image of the Riemannian exponential map at a basepoint of a compact symmetric space as the disjoint union of so called focal orbits through a maximal torus. These are orbits of a subgroup of the isotropy group acting…

We define symmetric spaces in arbitrary dimension and over arbitrary non-discrete topological fields $\K$, and we construct manifolds and symmetric spaces associated to topological continuous quasi-inverse Jordan pairs and -triple systems.…

This article provides a geometric representation for the well-known isomorphism between the special orthogonal group of an isotropic quadratic space of dimension 3 and the group of projective transformations of a projective line. This…

We conjecture that the automorphism group of a topological parallelism on real projective 3-space is compact. We prove that at least the identity component of this group is, indeed, compact.

We construct a smooth symmetric compactification of the space of all labeled tetrahedra in P^3.

The full classification of Riemannian $3$-symmetric spaces is presented. Up to Riemannian products the main building blocks consist in (possibly symmetric) spaces with semisimple isometry group, nilpotent Lie groups of step at most $2$ and…

For real projective spaces, (a) the Euclidean immersion dimension, (b) the existence of axial maps, and (c) the topological complexity are known to be three facets of the same problem. But when it comes to embedding dimension, the classical…

A model invariant under a supersymmetric extension of the rotation group O(3) is mapped, using a stereographic projection, from the spherical surface S2 to two dimensional Euclidean space. The resulting model does not have a manifest local…

The isotropic 3-space I^3 which is one of the Cayley--Klein spaces is obtained from the Euclidean space by substituting the usual Euclidean distance with the isotropic distance. In the present paper, we give several classifications on the…

We show that a generic real projective $n$-dimensional hypersurface of odd degree $d$, such that $4(n-2)=\binom{d+3}3$, contains "many" real 3-planes, namely, in the logarithmic scale their number has the same rate of growth, $d^3\log d$,…

We generalize Atsuyama's result on the geometry of symmetric spaces of type EVI to the case of arbitrary field of characteristic zero. We relate the possible mutual positions of two points with the classification of balanced symplectic…

In this article we characterize all biharmonic curves of the Cartan-Vranceanu 3-dimensional spaces and we give their explicit parametrizations.

The convex hull on three points in two dimensional euclidean space of three flat edges (trihedron) was studied. The Bohr-Sommerfeld quantization of the area of space is performed. It is shown that it reproduces exactly the equidistant…

In this paper, we classify three-locally-symmetric spaces for a connected, compact and simple Lie group. Furthermore, we give the classification of invariant Einstein metrics on these spaces.

We consider embedding diagrams for the Reissner-Nordstr\"om spacetime. We embed the $(r-t)$ and $(r-\phi)$ planes into 3-Minkowski/Euclidean space and discuss the relation between the diagrams and the corresponding curvature scalar of the…
