On a $2m$-dimensional closed manifold we investigate the existence of prescribed $Q$-curvature metrics with conical singularities. We present here a general existence and multiplicity result in the supercritical regime. To this end, we…
In this note, we use the intersection number to determine explicitly the balanced cone of the small resolution of the quintic conifold.
An efficient way to get implicit equations of conics on five points and quadrics on nine, using pencils of conics and quadrics, is revealed. Parallel axis right cones intersect on a conic. An example, to show how to place five coplanar…
Symmetric edge polytopes are lattice polytopes associated with finite simple graphs that are of interest in both theory and applications. We investigate the facet structure of symmetric edge polytopes for various models of random graphs.…
Small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) was used to quantitatively study the morphology of aligned, mono-disperse conical etched ion tracks in thin films of amorphous silicon dioxide with aspect ratios of around 6:1, and in polycarbonate foils…
We study efficient combinatorial algorithms to produce the Hasse diagram of the poset of bounded faces of an unbounded polyhedron, given vertex-facet incidences. We also discuss the special case of simple polyhedra and present computational…
We study three families of polyhedral cones whose sections are regular simplices, cubes, and crosspolytopes. We compute solid angles and conic intrinsic volumes of these cones. We show that several quantities appearing in stochastic…
Starting with a similarity function between objects, it is possible to define a distance metric on pairs of objects, and more generally on probability distributions over them. These distance metrics have a deep basis in functional analysis,…
In this paper the concept of a partial cone metric space is investigated, some continuity type theorems, and fixed point theorems of contractive mappings in this generalized setting are proved as well as some theorems related to topological…
It is well known that there exist twenty two symmetry type graphs associated to 4-orbit maps. For this ones we give the feasible values taken by the degree of the vertices and the number appropriate of edges in the boundary of each face of…
We study points of density 1/2 of sets of finite perimeter in infinite-dimensional Gaussian spaces and prove that, as in the finite-dimensional theory, the surface measure is concentrated on this class of points. Here density 1/2 is…
We investigate the iterative behaviour of continuous order preserving subhomogeneous maps that map a polyhedral cone into itself. For these maps we show that every bounded orbit converges to a periodic orbit and, moreover, that there exists…
The maximal contact symmetry dimensions for scalar ODEs of order $\ge 4$ and vector ODEs of order $\ge 3$ are well known. Using a Cartan-geometric approach, we determine for these ODEs the next largest realizable (submaximal) symmetry…
This paper introduces a new metric and mean on the set of positive semidefinite matrices of fixed-rank. The proposed metric is derived from a well-chosen Riemannian quotient geometry that generalizes the reductive geometry of the positive…
The number of essentially different square polyominoes of order n and minimum perimeter p(n) is enumerated.
We consider an appoximation of a catenoid constructed from "odd" truncated cones that maintains minimality in a certain sense. Thorough this procedure, we obtain a discrete curve approximating a catenary by exploiting the fact that it is…
An $\epsilon$-approximate incidence between a point and some geometric object (line, circle, plane, sphere) occurs when the point and the object lie at distance at most $\epsilon$ from each other. Given a set of points and a set of objects,…
In a recent Letter we proposed a means to realize a quasicrystal with eight-fold symmetry by trapping particles in an optical potential created by four lasers. The quasicrystals obtained in this way, which are closely related to the…
In this article we establish the relation between the spines of 3-manifolds and the polyhedra with identified faces. We do this by showing that the spines of the closed, connected, orientable 3-manifolds can be presented through polyhedra…
Problems in optimization and geometric probability are discussed, all connected with angles subtended at an observer's eye by an object at a distance. Several of these remain unsolved.
