We give an algorithmic proof of Pick's theorem which calculates the area of a lattice-polygon in terms of the lattice-points.

Let A be a subspace arrangement with a geometric lattice such that codim(x) > 1 for every x in A. Using rational homotopy theory, we prove that the complement M(A) is rationally elliptic if and only if the sum of the orthogonal subspaces is…

We prove that there are infinitely many integral right triangle and $\theta$-integral rhombus pairs with a common area and a common perimeter by the theory of elliptic curves.

We prove that for some potentials (including the Newtonian one, and the potential of Helmholtz vortices in the plane) relative equilibria consisting of two homothetic regular polygons of arbitrary size can only occur if the masses at each…

A positive definite Hermitian lattice is said to be 2-universal if it represents all positive definite binary Hermitian lattices. We find all 2-universal ternary and quaternary Hermitian lattices over imaginary quadratic number fields.

Given a pair of number fields with isomorphic rings of adeles, we construct bijections between objects associated to the pair. For instance we construct an isomorphism of Brauer groups that commutes with restriction. We additionally…

We show that for an integer $\ell$, there exists an acute integer lattice triangle of lattice perimeter $\ell$ such that its orthocenter is an integer lattice point, if and only if $\ell=6 $ or $\ell\ge 8$. Analogous results are obtained…

A polycube is an orthogonal polyhedron composed of unit cubes glued together along entire faces, and homeomorphic to a sphere. A layer of a polycube refers to the portion lying between two horizontal cross-sections spaced one unit apart. We…

We define a notion of {\it positive part} of a lattice $\Lambda$ and we endow the set of such positive parts with a topology. We then study some properties of this topology, by comparing it with the one of $V^*/\RM_{> 0}$, where $V^*$ is…

We prove that if a proper metric space is quasi-isometric to a finitely generated group and to a space with a horoball over a finitely generated group, then that space is quasi-isometric to a rank-one symmetric space or the real line.

A point $p$ is said to be an area center of a polygon if all of the triangles composed of $p$ and its edges have one and the same area. We construct a moduli space $AC_n$ of such $n$-gons and study its geometry and arithmetic. For every…

We give a computer-based proof of the following fact: If a square is divided into seven or nine convex polygons, congruent among themselves, then the tiles are rectangles.

We give a new proof of a theorem of Loos stating that a Riemannian symmetric space X with rectangular unit lattice is a symmetric R-space. For this we construct explicitly an isometric extrinsically symmetric embedding of X in a Euclidean…

First, we calculate the Ehrhart polynomial associated to an arbitrary cube with integer coordinates for its vertices. Then, we use this result to derive relationships between the Ehrhart polynomials for regular lattice tetrahedrons and…

To every $n$-dimensional lens space $L$, we associate a congruence lattice $\mathcal L$ in $\mathbb Z^m$, with $n=2m-1$ and we prove a formula relating the multiplicities of Hodge-Laplace eigenvalues on $L$ with the number of lattice…

We examine in detail the relative equilibria in the four-vortex problem where two pairs of vortices have equal strength, that is, \Gamma_1 = \Gamma_2 = 1 and \Gamma_3 = \Gamma_4 = m where m is a nonzero real parameter. One main result is…

We give a positive answer to the Chavel's conjecture [J. Diff. Geom. 4 (1970), 13-20]: a simply connected rank one normal homogeneous space is symmetric if any pair of conjugate points are isotropic. It implies that all simply connected…

We discuss generalizations of some results on lattice polygons to certain piecewise linear loops which may have a self-intersection but have vertices in the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^2$. We first prove a formula on the rotation number of a…

A simple surface amalgam is the union of a finite collection of surfaces with precisely one boundary component each and which have their boundary curves identified. We prove if two fundamental groups of simple surface amalgams act properly…

Let M be a compact, connected and simply-connected Riemannian manifold, and suppose that G is a compact, connected Lie group acting on M by isometries. The dimension of the space of orbits is called the cohomogeneity of the action. If the…
