Vector beams are often regarded as non-separable superpositions of spatial and polarization degrees of freedom that satisfy the wave equation. This interpretation ties their polarization structure to their spatial shape. Here, we introduce…
We introduce the concept of paravectors to describe the geometry of points in a three dimensional space. After defining a suitable product of paravectors, we introduce the concepts of biparavectors and triparavectors to describe line…
We present a generalization of multiview varieties as closures of images obtained by projecting subspaces of a given dimension onto several views, from the photographic and geometric points of view. Motivated by applications in Computer…
Planes are familiar mathematical objects which lie at the subtle boundary between continuous geometry and discrete combinatorics. A plane is geometrical, certainly, but the ways that two planes can interact break cleanly into discrete sets:…
Time-of-flight cameras provide depth information, which is complementary to the photometric appearance of the scene in ordinary images. It is desirable to merge the depth and colour information, in order to obtain a coherent scene…
This writeup describes ongoing work on designing and testing a certain family of correspondences between compact metric spaces that we call \emph{embedding-projection correspondences} (EPCs). Of particular interest are EPCs between spheres…
This paper investigates several distinct attempts to generalize in higher dimension the standard 2-dimensional phyllotaxy set construction. We first recall known contructions for these sets on $2D$ manifolds of constant curvature (the…
We offer an axiomatic presentation of three-dimensional projective space that adopts the line as its fundamental element and renders automatic the principle of duality.
It is proved that for a 3-dimensional compact metrizable space X the infinite real projective space is an absolute extensor of X if and only if the real projective plane is an absolute extensor of X.
We show that if the fundamental groups of the complements of two line arrangements in the complex projective plane are isomorphic to the same direct sum of free groups, then the complements of the arrangements are homotopy equivalent. For…
Projective structures on curves appear naturally in many areas of mathematics, from extrinsic conformal geometry to analysis, where the main problem is to find qualitative information about the solutions of Hill equations. In this paper, we…
Symmetry is ubiquitous throughout nature and can often give great insights into the formation, structure and stability of objects studied by mathematicians, physicists, chemists and biologists. However, perfect symmetry occurs rarely so…
Results on $8$-dimensional topological planes are scattered in the literature. It is the aim of the present paper to give a survey of these geometries, in particular of information obtained after the appearance of the treatise Compact…
We compare the essential properties of projections in the L2 and L1 normed spaces by two methods: Projection operators and by minimization of the distance. In Euclidean geometry the orthogonality (L2- conjugacy) plays central role; while in…
This paper is the second part of a two-part paper investigating the structure and properties of dyadic polygons. A dyadic polygon is the intersection of the dyadic subplane $D^2$ of the real plane $R^2$ and a real convex polygon with…
We study the generalized analogues of conics for normed planes by using the following natural approach: It is well known that there are different metrical definitions of conics in the Euclidean plane. We investigate how these definitions…
In previous papers it was shown that the left and right O-module structure of the jet bundles on the projective line differed. In this paper we show that similar statements hold for jet bundles on projective space in any dimension. We also…
Low pole order frames of slanted vector fields are constructed on the space of vertical k-jets of the universal family of complete intersections in $\mathbb{P}^n$ and, adapting the arguments, low pole order frames of slanted vector fields…
The space-like hypersurface of the Universe at the present cosmological time is a three-dimensional manifold. A non-trivial global topology of this space-like hypersurface would imply that the apparently observable universe (the sphere of…
We prove that the focal set generated by the reflection of a point source off a translation invariant surface consists of two sets: a curve and a surface. The focal curve lies in the plane orthogonal to the symmetry direction containing the…
