We study the curvature-dimension inequality in regular graphs. We develop techniques for calculating the curvature of such graphs, and we give characterizations of classes of graphs with positive, zero, and negative curvature. Our main…

Given an Einstein structure with positive scalar curvature on a four-dimensional Riemannian manifolds, that is $Ric=\lambda g$ for some positive constant $\lambda$. For convenience, the Ricci curvature is always normalized to $Ric=1$. A…

We consider Diophantine quintuples $\{a, b, c, d, e\}$. These are sets of distinct positive integers, the product of any two elements of which is one less than a perfect square. It is conjectured that there are no Diophantine quintuples; we…

For every positive integer k, it is shown that there exists a positive definite diagonal quaternary integral quadratic form that represents all positive integers except for precisely those which lie in k arithmetic progressions. For k=1,…

In this article, we introduce a notion of curvature, denoted by $ k_X(T)$, for a metric triple $T$ inside a (possibly discrete) metric space $X$. Such a notion enables us to consider curvature information of any metric space, including…

We study high-dimensional numerical integration in the worst-case setting. The subject of tractability is concerned with the dependence of the worst-case integration error on the dimension. Roughly speaking, an integration problem is…

For an integer n, a set of m distinct nonzero integers {a_1,a_2,...,a_m} such that a_i a_j+n is a perfect square for all 0<i<j<m+1, is called a D(n)-m-tuple. In this paper, we show that there are infinitely many essentially different…

For a nonzero integer n, a set of m distinct nonzero integers {a_1,a_2,...,a_m} such that a_i a_j + n is a perfect square for all 1 <= i < j <= m, is called a D(n)-m-tuple. In this paper, by using properties of so-called regular Diophantine…

Let C be two times continuously differentiable curve in R^2 with at least one point at which the curvature is non-zero. For any i,j > 0 with i+j =1, let Bad(i,j) denote the set of points (x,y) in R^2 for which max {||qx ||^{1/i},…

For a weighted tree, the Lin--Lu--Yau Ricci curvature admits an explicit formula in terms of the edge weights. Consequently, the constant-curvature equation is equivalent to an eigenvalue problem for an edge-indexed Ricci matrix $R_T$.…

The square-peg problem asks if every Jordan curve in the plane has four points which are the vertices of a square. The problem is open for continuous Jordan curves, but it has been resolved for various regularity classes of curves between…

Translation from the Latin of "Annotationes in locum quendam Cartesii ad circuli quadraturam spectantem" (1763). The passage Euler is referring to is the "Excerpta" in part 6, p. 6 of Descartes' 1701 "Opuscula posthuma". Before reading this…

In this paper we use the theory of modular forms to find formulas for the number of representations of a positive integer by certain class of quadratic forms in eight variables, viz., forms of the form $a_1x_1^2 + a_2 x_2^2 + a_3 x_3^2 +…

An $N$-tiling of triangle $ABC$ by triangle $T$ (the `tile') is a way of writing $ABC$ as a union of $N$ copies of $T$ overlapping only at their boundaries. Let the tile $T$ have angles $(\alpha,\beta,\gamma)$, and sides $(a,b,c)$. This…

We construct a positive constant curvature space by identifying some points along a Killing vector in a de Sitter Space. This space is the counterpart of the three-dimensional Schwarzschild-de Sitter solution in higher dimensions. This…

We consider the problem of enumerating integer tetrahedra of fixed perimeter (sum of side-lengths) and/or diameter (maximum side-length), up to congruence. As we will see, this problem is considerably more difficult than the corresponding…

We investigate when the tangent bundle of a projective manifold has a non-trivial first order (or positive-dimensional) deformation. This leads to a new conjectural characterization of the complex projective space.

If P is a point inside triangle ABC, then the cevians through P extended to the circumcircle of triangle ABC create a figure containing a number of curvilinear triangles. Each curvilinear triangle is bounded by an arc of the circumcircle…

We consider a 4-dimensional Riemannian manifold M endowed with a right skew-circulant tensor structure S, which is an isometry with respect to the metric g and the fourth power of S is minus identity. We determine a class of manifolds (M,…
