In a primitive integral Apollonian circle packing, the curvatures that appear must fall into one of six or eight residue classes modulo 24. The local-global conjecture states that every sufficiently large integer in one of these residue…
We prove that a set of density one satisfies the local-global conjecture for integral Apollonian gaskets. That is, for a fixed integral, primitive Apollonian gasket, almost every (in the sense of density) admissible (passing local…
In this paper we study the integral properties of Apollonian-3 circle packings, which are variants of the standard Apollonian circle packings. Specifically, we study the reduction theory, formulate a local-global conjecture, and prove a…
Four mutually tangent spheres form two gaps. In each of these, one can inscribe in a unique way four mutually tangent spheres such that each one of these spheres is tangent to exactly three of the original spheres. Repeating the process…
We generalize work of Bourgain-Kontorovich and Zhang, proving an almost local-to-global property for the curvatures of certain circle packings, to a large class of Kleinian groups. Specifically, we associate in a natural way an infinite…
We introduce an orthoplicial Apollonian sphere packing, which is a sphere packing obtained by successively inverting a configuration of 8 spheres with 4-orthplicial tangency graph. We will show that there are such packings in which the…
Apollonian circle packings arise by repeatedly filling the interstices between mutually tangent circles with further tangent circles. In Euclidean space it is possible for every circle in such a packing to have integer radius of curvature,…

Apollonian circle packings arise by repeatedly filling the interstices between four mutually tangent circles with further tangent circles. Such packings can be described in terms of the Descartes configurations they contain. It observed…
Apollonian circle packings arise by repeatedly filling the interstices between four mutually tangent circles with further tangent circles. We observe that there exist Apollonian packings which have strong integrality properties, in which…
In an earlier work, we proposed a generalization for the Apollonian packing in arbitrary dimensions and showed that the resulting object in four, five, and six dimensions have properties consistent with the Apollonian circle and sphere…
A bounded Apollonian circle packing (ACP) is an ancient Greek construction which is made by repeatedly inscribing circles into the triangular interstices in a Descartes configuration of four mutually tangent circles. Remarkably, if the…
Bounded Apollonian circle packings (ACP's) are constructed by repeatedly inscribing circles into the triangular interstices of a configuration of four mutually tangent circles, one of which is internally tangent to the other three. If the…
Polyhedral circle packings are generalizations of the Apollonian packing. We develop the theory of the Apollonian group, Descartes quadratic form, and related objects for all polyhedral packings. We use these tools to determine the domain…
We show that for certain triangulations of surfaces, circle packings realising the triangulation can be found by solving a system of polynomial equations. We also present a similar system of equations for unbranched circle packings. The…
We establish the local Langlands conjecture for small rank general spin groups $GSpin_4$ and $GSpin_6$ as well as their inner forms. We construct appropriate $L$-packets and prove that these $L$-packets satisfy the properties expected of…
The main purpose of this article is to demonstrate three techniques for proving algebraicity statements about circle packings. We give proofs of three related theorems: (1) that every finite simple planar graph is the contact graph of a…
We prove the filling area conjecture in the hyperelliptic case. In particular, we establish the conjecture for all genus 1 fillings of the circle, extending P. Pu's result in genus 0. We translate the problem into a question about closed…
The Schmidt arrangement of an imaginary quadratic number field $K$ is the orbit of the extended real line under $\text{PSL}(2, \mathcal{O}_K)$ as M\"obius transformations on the extended complex plane. If $K\neq\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-3})$, then…
We prove that the space of circle packings consistent with a given triangulation on a surface of genus at least two is projectively rigid, so that a packing on a complex projective surface is not deformable within that complex projective…
