Motivated by generalizations of de Bruijn cycles to various combinatorial structures (Chung, Diaconis, and Graham), we study various Euler tours in set systems. Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a hypergraph whose corank and rank are $c\geq 3$ and $k$,…
We study the existence of stationary classical solutions of the incompressible Euler equation in the plane that approximate singular stationnary solutions of this equation. The construction is performed by studying the asymptotics of…
This paper generalizes the result of Elmachtoub et al to any weighted barycenter, where a transformation is considered which takes an arbitrary point of division $\xi \in (0,1)$ of the segments of a polygon with $n$ vertices. We then…
The principle that celestial bodies must move on circular orbits or on paths resulting from the composition of circular orbits has been assumed as a constant guide in the astronomical thougth of the peoples facing the Mediterranean sea as…
An Euler tour in a hypergraph $H$ is a closed walk that traverses each edge of $H$ exactly once, and an Euler family is a family of closed walks that jointly traverse each edge of $H$ exactly once. An $\ell$-covering $k$-hypergraph, for $2…
Elliptic integrals, since Euler's finding of addition theorem 1751, has been studied extensively from various view points. Present paper gives a view point from primitive integrals of types $\mathrm{A_2}, \mathrm{B_2}$ and $\mathrm{G_2}$…
In this paper, we consider the elliptic collinear solutions of the classical $n$-body problem, where the $n$ bodies always stay on a straight line, and each of them moves on its own elliptic orbit with the same eccentricity. Such a motion…
We stratify families of projective and very affine hypersurfaces according to their topological Euler characteristic. Our new algorithms compute all strata using algebro-geometric techniques. For very affine hypersurfaces, we investigate…
It was discovered by Gordon in 1977 that Keplerian ellipses in the plane are minimizers of the Lagrangian action and spectrally stable as periodic points of the associated Hamiltonian flow. The aim of this paper is to give a homotopy…
We establish the local uniqueness of steady transonic shock solutions with spherical symmetry for the three-dimensional full Euler equations. These transonic shock-fronts are important for understanding transonic shock phenomena in…
Linear harmonic number sums had been studied by a variety of authors during the last centuries, but only few results are known about nonlinear Euler sums of quadratic or even higher degree. The first systematic study on nonlinear Euler sums…
If E is any ellipse inscribed in a convex quadrilateral, D, then we prove that Area(E)/Area(D) is less than or equal to pi/4, and equality holds if and only if D is a parallelogram and E is tangent to the sides of D at the midpoints. This…
The problem of drawing geographical maps is the one of mapping a subset of the sphere, representing a country or some other region on the surface of the Earth, into the Euclidean plane, minimising certain distortion properties that are…
A well-known object in classical Euclidean geometry is the circumcenter of a triangle, i.e., the point that is equidistant from all vertices. The purpose of this paper is to provide a systematic study of the circumcenter of sets containing…
In this paper we study for the incompressible Euler equations the global structure of the bifurcation diagram for the rotating doubly connected patches near the degenerate case. We show that the branches with the same symmetry merge forming…
Using an elementary argument, we prove new fixed point theorems for classical elliptic complexes. We obtain new results for conformal relations and coisotropic intersections. We obtain theorems for the average intersections of families of…

Erd\"os proved in 1946 that if a set $E\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ is closed and non-empty, then the set, called ambiguous locus or medial axis, of points in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with the property that the nearest point in $E$ is not unique, can be…
We study no-boundary de Sitter extremal surfaces and their pseudo-entropy areas for generic subregions at the future boundary, building on previous work. For large subregions, timelike+Euclidean extremal surfaces exist with transparent…
We study the Euler equation on the rotating sphere in the case where the absolute vorticity is initially sharply concentrated around several points. We follow the literature already concerning vorticity confinement for the planar Euler…
