It is shown that each continuous transformation $h$ from Euclidean $m$-space ($m>1$) into Euclidean $n$-space that preserves the equality of distances (that is, fulfils the implication $|x-y|=|z-w|\Rightarrow|h(x)-h(y)|=|h(z)-h(w)|$) is a…

Let Q denote the field of rational numbers. Let F \subseteq R is a euclidean field. We prove that: (1) if x,y \in F^n (n>1) and |x-y| is constructible by means of ruler and compass then there exists a finite set S(x,y) \subseteq F^n…

Let X be a real normed vector space and dim X \ge 2. Let d>0 be a fixed real number. We prove that if x,y \in X and ||x-y||/d is a rational number then there exists a finite set {x,y} \subseteq S(x,y) \subseteq X with the following…

For any positive definite rational quadratic form $q$ of $n$ variables let $G(\mathbb{Q}^n, q)$ denote the graph with vertices $\mathbb{Q}^n$ and $x, y \in \mathbb{Q}^n$ connected iff $q(x - y) = 1$. This notion generalises standard…

A function $f: \mathbb{Z} \to \mathbb{Q}^n$ is a $c$-quasihomomorphism if the Hamming distance between $f(x+y)$ and $f(x)+f(y)$ is at most $c$ for all $x,y \in \mathbb{Z}$. We show that any $c$-quasihomomorphism has distance at most some…

A theorem due to Cartan asserts that every origin-preserving automorphism of bounded circular domains with respect to the origin is linear. In the present paper, by employing the theory of Bergman's representative domain, we prove that…
