Fix two points $p$ and $q$ in the plane and a positive number $k \neq 1$. A result credited to Apollonius of Perga states that the set of points $x$ that satisfy $d(x, p)/d(x, q) = k$ forms a circle. In this paper we study the analogous set…
In this paper we represent $n-$dimensional discrete Taxicab geometry by base--($4n+1$) numeral system. The algebraic structure of this base--($4n+1$) system is similar to unary system, we call it quasi-unary (QU) representation. QU…
The existence of excircles and an Apollonius circle for a triangle in taxicab geometry are connected to the concept of inscribed triangles.
In this paper, we explicitly show the various isometries of the plane under the taxicab metric. We then use these isometries to prove that Euclid's proposition I.5 for isoscelese triangles is true under certain circumstances in taxicab…
In this paper we present geometry of some curves in Taxicab metric. All curves of second order and trifocal ellipse in this metric are presented. Area and perimeter of some curves are also defined.
Following the spirit of a recent work of one of the authors (J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 44 (2011) 045301), the essential structure of the generalized Pauli group of a qubit-qu$d$it, where $d = 2^{k}$ and an integer $k \geq 2$, is recast in…
The Cassinian metric and its inner metric have been studied for subdomains of the $n$-dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$ ($n\ge 2$) by the first named author. In this paper we obtain various inequalities between the Cassinian metric…
In this work we reproduce the characterization of $\Gg^s$-sets from the euclidean setting [J. London Math. Soc. 49:267-280,1994] to more general metric spaces. These sets have Hausdorff dimension at least $s$ and are closed by countable…
An equidistant polytope is a special equidistant set in the space $\mathbb{R}^n$ all of whose boundary points have equal distances from two finite systems of points. Since one of the finite systems of the given points is required to be in…
Let X $\subseteq$ {0, 1} n. Then the daisy cube Q n (X) is introduced as the sub-graph of Q n induced by the intersection of the intervals I(x, 0 n) over all x $\in$ X. Daisy cubes are partial cubes that include Fibonacci cubes, Lucas…
The paper is concerned with families of plane algebraic curves that contain a given and quite special finite set X of points in the projective plane. We focus on the case in which the set X is formed by transversally intersecting pairs of…
While the concept of straight-line length is well understood in taxicab geometry, little research has been done into the length of curves or the nature of area and volume in this geometry. This paper sets forth a comprehensive view of the…
Inscribed angles are investigated in taxicab geometry with application to the existence and uniqueness of inscribed and circumscribed taxicab circles of triangles.
A Delone set in $\mathbb{R}^n$ is a set such that (a) the distance between any two of its points is uniformly bounded below by a strictly positive constant and such that (b) the distance from any point to the remaining points in the set is…
In this paper, we characterise ovoidal cones by their intersection numbers. We first show that a set of points of $\mathrm{PG}(4,q)$ which intersects planes in $1$, $q+1$ or $2q+1$ points is either an ovoidal cone or a parabolic quadric,…
We report new examples of Sidon sets in abelian groups arising from generalized jacobians of curves, and discuss some of their properties with respect to size and structure.
Let K be a simplicial complex with vertex set V = {v_1,..., v_n}. The complex K is d-representable if there is a collection {C_1,...,C_n} of convex sets in R^d such that a subcollection {C_{i_1},...,C_{i_j}} has a nonempty intersection if…
In this article, we prove the existence of common fixed points for a pair of maps on a $q$-spherically complete $T_0$-ultra-quasi-metric space. The present article is a generalization, in the assymmetric setting of the paper of Rao et…
A family of sets has the $(p,q)$ property if among any $p$ members of the family some $q$ have a nonempty intersection. It is shown that for every $p\ge q\ge d+1$ there is a $c=c(p,q,d)<\infty$ such that for every family $\scr F$ of…
We define a contact metric structure on the manifold corresponding to a second order ordinary differential equation $d^2y/dx^2=f(x,y,y')$ and show that the contact metric structure is Sasakian if and only if the 1-form $\frac{1}{2}(dp-fdx)$…
