The Cramer-Castillon problem (CCP) consists in finding one or more polygons inscribed in a circle such that their sides pass cyclically through a list of $N$ points. We study this problem where the points are the vertices of a triangle and…
In 1640's, Blaise Pascal discovered a remarkable property of a hexagon inscribed in a conic - Pascal Theorem, which gave birth of the projective geometry. In this paper, a new geometric invariant of algebraic curves is discovered by a…
We construct a simple topological invariant of certain 3-manifolds, including quotients of the 3-sphere by finite groups, based on the fact that the tangent bundle of an orientable 3-manifold is trivialisable. This invariant is strong…
We explore offsets of Cayley ovals, by networking with different kinds of software. Using their specific abilities, algebraic, geometric, dynamic, we conjecture interesting properties of the offsets. For a given progenitor (the given plane…
Regions in the Euclidean plane surrounded by circles are fundamental geometric and combinatorial objects. Related studies have been done and we cannot explain them precisely, or roughly, well. We study such regions whose Poincar\'e-Reeb…
We show that the the image of the regular projection of a vertex of a cone over a triangle that minimizes the ratio of the cube of the area of the boundary of the cone and the square of the volume of the cone coincides with the incenter.
Topological invariants such as winding numbers and linking numbers appear as charges of topological solitons in diverse nonlinear physical systems described by a unit vector field defined on two and three dimensional manifolds. While the…
We generalize the classical Ceva's and Menelaus's theorems to curvilinear triangles bounded by circular arcs. We introduce trilinear coordinates associated with such triangles and develop several geometric constructions. In particular, for…
The Brocard porism is a known 1d family of triangles inscribed in a circle and circumscribed about an ellipse. Remarkably, the Brocard angle is invariant and the Brocard points are stationary at the foci of the ellipse. In this paper we…
There has been considerable recent literature connecting Poncelet's theorem to ellipses, Blaschke products and numerical ranges, summarized, for example, in the recent book [11]. We show how those results can be understood using ideas from…
The local Euler obstructions and the Euler characteristics of linear sections with all hyperplanes on a stratified projective variety are key geometric invariants in the study of singularity theory. Despite their importance, in general it…
In this note we characterize isoperimetric regions inside almost-convex cones. More precisely, as in the case of convex cones, we show that isoperimetric sets are given by intersecting the cone with a ball centered at the origin.
The space ${\Bbb{L}}$ of oriented lines, or rays, in ${\Bbb{R}}^3$ is a 4-dimensional space with an abundance of natural geometric structure. In particular, it boasts a neutral K\"ahler metric which is closely related to the Euclidean…
Near a singular point of a surface or a curve, geometric invariants diverge in general, and the orders of diverge, in particular the boundedness about these invariants represent geometry of the surface and the curve. In this paper, we study…
Among a triangle's exparabolas (parabolas escribed to the triangle), three are distinguished by having locally maximal parameter. They are determined by a simple cubic equation and characterized by having axes that contain the triangle's…
We investigate the geometry of holomorphic curves and complex surfaces from the perspective of singularity theory. We show that, with a suitable choice of a complex bilinear symmetric form, the families of functions and mappings that…
Let P be a point inside a convex quadrilateral ABCD. The lines from P to the vertices of the quadrilateral divide the quadrilateral into four triangles. If we locate a triangle center in each of these triangles, the four triangle centers…
