It is shown that for each finite number of Dirac measures supported at points $s_n$ in three-dimensional Euclidean space, with given amplitudes $a_n$, there exists a unique real-valued Lipschitz function $u$, vanishing at infinity, which…
In the articles [1] and [2] of D. Finch, M. Haltmeier, S. Patch and D. Rakesh inversion formulas were found in any dimension $n\geq2$ for recovering a smooth function with compact support in the unit ball from spherical means centered on…
On some specified convex supporting sets of spheres, we find a generalized longitude function whose level sets are totally geodesic. Given an arbitrary (weakly) harmonic map into spheres, the composition of the generalized longitude…
The {\em focal curve} of an immersed smooth curve $\gamma:s\mapsto \gamma(s)$, in Euclidean space $\R^{m+1}$, consists of the centres of its osculating hyperspheres. The focal curve may be parametrised in terms of the Frenet frame of…
We consider the cosmology of modified gravity models in which Newton's constant is distorted by a function of the inverse d'Alembertian acting on the Ricci scalar. We derive a technique for choosing the distortion function so as to fit an…
When considered as submanifolds of Euclidean space, the Riemannian geometry of the round sphere and the Clifford torus may be formulated in terms of Poisson algebraic expressions involving the embedding coordinates, and a central object is…
We consider a class of overdetermined problems in rotationally symmetric spaces, which reduce to the classical Serrin's overdetermined problem in the case of the Euclidean space. We prove some general integral identities for rotationally…
A variational principle is applied to 4D Euclidean space provided with a tensor refractive index, defining what can be seen as 4-dimensional optics (4DO). The geometry of such space is analysed, making no physical assumptions of any kind.…
The direct and inverse theorems are established for the best approximation in the weighted $L^p$ space on the unit sphere of $\RR^{d+1}$, in which the weight functions are invariant under finite reflection groups. The theorems are stated…
Thurston's circle packing approximation of the Riemann Mapping (proven to give the Riemann Mapping in the limit by Rodin-Sullivan) is largely based on the theorem that any topological disk with a circle packing metric can be deformed into a…
It is presented the simplest known disproof of the Borsuk conjecture stating that if a bounded subset of n-dimensional Euclidean space contains more than n points, then the subset can be partitioned into n+1 nonempty parts of smaller…
We consider an inverse problem arising in thermo-/photo- acoustic tomography that amounts to reconstructing a function $f$ from its circular or spherical means with the centers lying on a given measurement surface. (Equivalently, these…
We prove rigidity for hypersurfaces with boundary in the unit $(n+1)$-sphere with scalar curvature bounded below by $n(n-1)$. Under appropriate boundary conditions, the hypersurfaces are shown to be part of the equatorial spheres. The lower…
We study special functions on euclidean spaces from the viewpoint of riemannian symmetric spaces. Here the euclidean space $E^n = G/K$ where $G$ is the semidirect product $R^n \cdot K$ of the translation group with a closed subgroup $K$ of…
For an $r$-tuple $(\gamma_1,\ldots,\gamma_r)$ of special orthogonal $d\times d$ matrices, we say that the Euclidean $(d-1)$-dimensional sphere $S^{d-1}$ is $(\gamma_1,\ldots,\gamma_r)$-divisible if there is a subset $A\subseteq S^{d-1}$…
The stationary points of the total scalar curvature functional on the space of unit volume metrics on a given closed manifold are known to be precisely the Einstein metrics. One may consider the modified problem of finding stationary points…
Over the past decades, many authors advertised models on complexified spacetime algebras for use in describing gravity. This work aims at providing phenomenological support to such claims, by introducing a one-parameter real phase $\alpha$…
This paper shows that in dimensions n \geq 2 for any partition of the set of points in the standard n-sphere \sum_{i=0}^n x_i^2 =1 in R^{n+1} into (n+3) or more nonempty sets, there exists a hyperplane in R^{n+1} that intersects at least…
Euler's inequality is a well known inequality relating the inradius and circumradius of a triangle. In Euclidean geometry, this inequality takes the form $R \geq 2r$ where $R$ is the circumradius and $r$ is the inradius. In spherical…
We show two sphere theorems for the Riemannian manifolds with scalar curvature bounded below and the non-collapsed $\mathrm{RCD}(n-1,n)$ spaces with mean distance close to $\frac{\pi}{2}$.
