We study Poncelet's Theorem in finite projective coordinate planes over the field $GF(p)$ and concentrate on a particular pencil of conics. For pairs of such conics we investigate whether we can find polygons with $n$ sides, which are…
Poncelet's theorem states that if there exists an n-sided polygon which is inscribed in a given conic C and circumscribed about another conic D, then there are infinitely many such n-gons. Proofs of this theorem that we are aware of,…
In the projective plane over a finite field of characteristic not equal to 2, we compute the probability that a randomly selected pair of distinct conics $(\mathscr{A},\mathscr{B})$, with $\mathscr{A}$ smooth or singular and $\mathscr{B}$…
We describe all triangles that shares the same circumcircle and Euler circle. Although this two circles do not form a poristic pair of circles, we find a poristic circle "in-between" that enable to solve this problem using Poncelet porism.
Let ${\mathbf P}^2$ denote the projective plane over a finite field ${\mathbb F}_q$. A pair of nonsingular conics $({\mathcal A}, {\mathcal B})$ in the plane is said to satisfy the Poncelet triangle condition if, considered as conics in…
We analyze loci of triangle centers over variants of two-well known triangle porisms: the bicentric and confocal families. Specifically, we evoke the general version of Poncelet's closure theorem whereby individual sides can be made tangent…
We examine pairs of closed plane curves that have the same closing property as two conic sections in Poncelet's porism. We show how the vertex curve can be computed for a given envelope and vice versa. Our formulas are universal in the…
This paper investigates the differential-geometric and topological properties of the Cayley condition in Poncelet porism for triangles, defined as the locus of pairs of non-degenerate conics that admit a Poncelet triangle. While the…
Our aim is to prove a Poncelet type theorem for a line configuration on the complex projective. More precisely, we say that a polygon with 2n sides joining 2n vertices A1, A2,..., A2n is well inscribed in a configuration Ln of n lines if…
We study the geometric structure of Poncelet $n$-gons from a projective point of view. In particular we present explicit constructions of Poncelet $n$-gons for certain $n$ and derive algebraic characterisations in terms of bracket…
We study families of triangles that are inscribed in a fixed circle and circumscribed about a central conic, extending the classical Chapple--Euler relation within the framework of Poncelet geometry. We establish several geometric…
We give a projective proof of the butterfly porism for cyclic quadrilaterals and present a general reversion porism for polygons with an arbitrary number of vertices on a conic. We also investigate projective properties of the porisms.
We study relations between $(n_4)$ incidence configurations and the classical Poncelet Porism. Poncelet's result studies two conics and a sequence of points and lines that inscribes one conic and circumscribes the other. Poncelet's Porism…
We explore properties and loci of a Poncelet family of polygons -- called here Steiner-Soddy -- whose vertices are centers of circles in the Steiner porism, including conserved quantities, loci, and its relationship to other Poncelet…
We present a criterion when six points chosen on the sides of a triangle belong to the same conic. Using this tool we show how the two geometrical gems - celebrated Poncelet's theorem of projective geometry and incredible Morley's theorem…
An ordered pair of smooth conics satisfies the Poncelet triangle condition if there is a triangle inscribed in the first conic and circumscribed in the second conic. Over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ with characteristic greater than $3$,…
Congruences, or $2$-parameter families of lines in $3$-space are of interest in many situations, in particular in geometric optics. In this paper we consider elements of their geometry which are invariant under affine changes of…
If there exists a cyclic quadrilateral whose sides go through the given four collinear points, then there are infinitely many such quadrilaterals inscribed in the same circle. We give two proofs of this porism; one based on cross-ratios,…
In the paper we prove that the number of graphs inscribed into graph of a convex polyhedron and circumscribed around another graph does not exceed 4. For this we first studied Poncelet type problem about the number of convex $n$-gons…
The Marden theorem of geometry of polynomials and the great Poncelet theorem from projective geometry of conics by their classical beauty occupy very special places. Our main aim is to present a strong and unexpected relationship between…
