In this paper, orthogonal projection along a geodesic to the chosen k-plane is introduced using edge and Gram matrix of an n-simplex in hyperbolic or spherical n-space. The distance from a point to k-plane is obtained by the orthogonal…
We show that a simply connected stable plane with connected lines is isomorphic to an open subplane of a classical projective plane (i.e., a plane over the real or complex numbers, the quaternions or the octonions) if it has that property…
This paper is motivated by the real symplectic isotopy problem : does there exists a nonsingular real pseudoholomorphic curve not isotopic in the projective plane to any real algebraic curve of the same degree? Here, we focus our study on…
Dispersion, impedance matching and resolution characteristics of an isotropic three-dimensional flat lens ("superlens") are studied. The lens is based on cubic meshes of interconnected transmission lines and bulk loads. We study a practical…
We provide a description of W_3 transformations in terms of deformations of convex curves in two dimensional Euclidean space. This geometrical interpretation sheds some light on the nature of finite W_3-morphisms. We also comment on how…
Projective geometry provides the preferred framework for most implementations of Euclidean space in graphics applications. Translations and rotations are both linear transformations in projective geometry, which helps when it comes to…
Every body knows that identical regular triangles or squares can tile the whole plane. Many people know that identical regular hexagons can tile the plane properly as well. In fact, even the bees know and use this fact! Is there any other…
Conceptual studies and numerical simulations are performed for imaging devices that transform a near-field pattern into magnified far-zone images and are based on high-order spatial transformation in cylindrical domains. A lens translating…
We find explicit equations of the fake projective plane $(a=7,p=2,\emptyset,D_3 X_7)$, which lies in the same class as the fake projective plane $(a=7,p=2,\emptyset,D_3 2_7)$ with $21$ automorphisms whose equations were previously found by…
The "Perpendicular Bisectors Construction" is a natural way to seek a replacement for the circumcenter of a noncyclic quadrilateral in the plane. In this paper, we generalize this iterative construction to a construction on polytopes with…
A standard procedure in classical projective geometry, using pencils of lines to extend an incidence plane to a projective plane, is examined from a constructive viewpoint. Brouwerian counterexamples reveal the limitations of traditional…
The problem of classification of cubic homogeneous Finslerian 3D metrics with respect to their isometries is considered. It is shown, that there are 6 different general affine types of such metrics. Algebras of isometries are presented in…
We study arrangements of $m$ hyperplanes in the $n$-dimensional real projective space, with a special focus on $m=n+3$ and $n=3$ or $n=4$.
An isometry is a geometric transformation that preserves distances between pairs of points. We present methods to classify isometries in the Euclidean plane, and extend these methods to spherical, single elliptical, and hyperbolic geometry.…
The book is designed for a semester-long course in Foundations of Geometry and meant to be rigorous, conservative, elementary and minimalist. List of topics: Euclidean geometry: The Axioms / Half-planes / Congruent triangles / Perpendicular…
The classical theory of plane projective geometry is examined constructively, using both synthetic and analytic methods. The topics include Desargues's Theorem, harmonic conjugates, projectivities, involutions, conics, Pascal's Theorem,…
Given two irreducible curves of the plane which have isomorphic complements, it is natural to ask whether there exists an automorphism of the plane that sends one curve on the other. This question has a positive answer for a large family of…
The authors give a complete classification of projective threefolds admitting a holomorphic conformal structure. A Corollary is the complete list of projective threefolds, whose tangent bundle is a symmetric square.
A projective mirror polyhedron is a projective polyhedron endowed with reflections across its faces. We construct an explicit diffeomorphism between the moduli space of a mirror projective polyhedron with fixed dihedral angles in…
Differentiable rendering is a technique to connect 3D scenes with corresponding 2D images. Since it is differentiable, processes during image formation can be learned. Previous approaches to differentiable rendering focus on mesh-based…
