In this paper we provide a computational approach to the shape of curves which are rational in polar coordinates, i.e. which are defined by means of a parametrization (r(t),\theta(t)) where both r(t),\theta(t) are rational functions. Our…
Curve pseudo-visibility graphs generalize polygon and pseudo-polygon visibility graphs and form a hereditary class of graphs. We prove that every curve pseudo-visibility graph with clique number $\omega$ has chromatic number at most $3\cdot…
We consider the problem of deciding, given a sequence of regions, if there is a choice of points, one for each region, such that the induced polyline is simple or weakly simple, meaning that it can touch but not cross itself. Specifically,…
We study the effect of nonuniform transverse couplings on a quasi-one dimensional superconductor. We show that inhomogeneous couplings quite generally increase the superconducting (pairing) gap relative to the uniform system, but that…
We show that the problem to decide whether two (convex) polytopes, given by their vertex-facet incidences, are combinatorially isomorphic is graph isomorphism complete, even for simple or simplicial polytopes. On the other hand, we give a…
Let L be a reductive subgroup of a reductive Lie group G. Let G/H be a homogeneous space of reductive type. We provide a necessary condition for the properness of the action of L on G/H. As an application we give examples of spaces that do…
We study sufficient conditions for the existence of Hamilton cycles in uniformly dense $3$-uniform hypergraphs. Problems of this type were first considered by Lenz, Mubayi, and Mycroft for loose Hamilton cycles and Aigner-Horev and Levy…
We study a popular algorithm for fitting polynomial curves to scattered data based on the least squares with gradient weights. We show that sometimes this algorithm admits a substantial reduction of complexity, and, furthermore, find…
We show that S.Vavasis' sufficient condition for global invertibility of a polynomial mapping can be easily generalized to the case of a general Lipschitz mapping. Keywords: Invertibility conditions, generalized Jacobian, nonsmooth…
It is unknown whether every polycube (polyhedron constructed by gluing cubes face-to-face) has an edge unfolding, that is, cuts along edges of the cubes that unfolds the polycube to a single nonoverlapping polygon in the plane. Here we…
We show that any nonconstant morphism of a threefold admits a relative Chow-Kuenneth decomposition. As a corollary we get sufficient conditions for threefolds to admit an absolute Chow-Kuenneth decomposition. In case the image of the…
We prove that any mixed-integer linear extended formulation for the matching polytope of the complete graph on $n$ vertices, with a polynomial number of constraints, requires $\Omega(\sqrt{\sfrac{n}{\log n}})$ many integer variables. By…
Non-Euclidean geometry combined with transformation optics has recently led to the proposal of an invisibility cloak that avoids optical singularities and therefore can work, in principle, in a broad band of the spectrum [U. Leonhardt and…
We show that for percolation on any transitive graph, the triangle condition implies the open triangle condition.
The article proves an assertion analogous to the Littlewood-Paley theorem for the orthoprojectors onto mutually orthogonal subspaces of piecewise polynomial functions on the cube $ I^d. $ This assertion provides an upper estimate for the…
In 1988, Kalai extended a construction of Billera and Lee to produce many triangulated (d-1)-spheres. In fact, in view of upper bounds on the number of simplicial d-polytopes by Goodman and Pollack, he derived that for every dimension d>=5,…
We prove a variant of the Chance-McDuff conjecture for pseudo-rotations: under certain additional conditions, a closed symplectic manifold which admits a Hamiltonian pseudo-rotation must have deformed quantum product and, in particular,…
For any positive integer $k \geq 3,$ the sunlet graph of order $2k$, denoted by $L_{2k},$ is the graph obtained by adding a pendant edge to each vertex of a cycle of length $k.$ In this paper, we prove that the necessary and sufficient…
In this paper, we study the deformations of curves in the projective 3-space $\mathbb P^3$ (space curves), one of the most classically studied objects in algebraic geometry. We prove a conjecture due to J. O. Kleppe (in fact, a version…
We point out the incorrect derivation of the gap equation in X.-J. Chen and H. Q. Lin [Phys. Rev. B 69 (2004) 104518; cond-mat/0306680] within the interlayer tunneling (ILT) model for multilayered cuprates. There, the local structure in…
