We prove an affine analog of Scharlau's reduction theorem for spherical buildings. To be a bit more precise let $X$ be a euclidean building with spherical building $\partial X$ at infinity. Then there exists a euclidean building $\bar X$…
We attach the degenerate signature (n,0,1) to the projectivized dual Grassmann algebra over R(n+1). We explore the use of the resulting Clifford algebra as a model for euclidean geometry. We avoid problems with the degenerate metric by…
We are generalizing to higher dimensions the Bavard-Ghys construction of the hyperbolic metric on the space of polygons with fixed directions of edges. The space of convex d-dimensional polyhedra with fixed directions of facet normals has a…
Noncommutative Euclidean spaces -- otherwise known as Moyal spaces or quantum Euclidean spaces -- are a standard example of a non-compact noncommutative geometry. Recent progress in the harmonic analysis of these spaces gives us the…
Different aspects of application of non-Euclidian geometries in architectural compositions are considered. These aspects are illustrated by examples of Armenian (medieval and contemporary) architectural compositions.
This paper is devoted to some rotationally symmetric classes of graphs denoted in literature as convex polytope graphs. Exact value of equidistant dimension is found for $T_n$. Next, for even $n$ exact values are found for $R''_n$ and…
The van der Waerden's theorem reads that an equilateral pentagon in Euclidean 3-space $\Bbb E^3$ with all diagonals of the same length is necessarily planar and its vertex set coincides with the vertex set of some convex regular pentagon.…
Regular polygonal complexes in euclidean 3-space are discrete polyhedra-like structures with finite or infinite polygons as faces and with finite graphs as vertex-figures, such that their symmetry groups are transitive on the flags. The…
We discuss a system of third order PDEs for strictly convex smooth functions on domains of Euclidean space. We argue that it may be understood as a closure of sorts of the first order prolongation of a family of second order PDEs. We…
We develop a self-contained theory of log-Euclidean Lie groups: smooth manifolds diffeomorphic to finite-dimensional vector spaces, equipped with the pullback of a constant Euclidean metric. This framework encompasses symmetric…
In the present paper, as we did previously in [7], we investigate the relations between the geometric properties of tilings and the algebraic properties of associated relational structures. Our study is motivated by the existence of…
We study graded symmetric algebras, which are the symmetric monoids in the monoidal category of vector spaces graded by a group. We show that a finite dimensional graded semisimple algebra is graded symmetric. The center of a symmetric…
We introduce both the notions of tensor product of convex bodies that contain zero in the interior, and of tensor product of $0$-symmetric convex bodies in Euclidean spaces. We prove that there is a bijection between tensor products of…
We determine the set of side lengths of $d$-dimensional cubes with vertices in $\mathbb Z^n$ using Witt's cancellation theorem from the algebraic theory of quadratic forms.
In a locally finite tiling of n-dim Euclidean space by convex polytopes, each point of the space is either a vertex of at least two tiles, or no vertex at all.
An irregular vertex in a tiling by polygons is a vertex of one tile and belongs to the interior of an edge of another tile. In this paper we show that for any integer $k\geq 3$, there exists a normal tiling of the Euclidean plane by convex…
In this paper we consider a family of nested t-structures given by silting objects and construct a silting object corresponding to the intersection of aisles of these t-structures as a homotopy colimit. The dual construction for the…
We present a method of constructing discrete integrable systems with crystallographic reflection group (Weyl) symmetries, thus clarifying the relationship between different discrete integrable systems in terms of their symmetry groups.…
Multisymplectic geometry - which originates from the well known de Donder-Weyl theory - is a natural framework for the study of classical field theories. Recently, two algebraic structures have been put forward to encode a given theory…
For a finite partially ordered set we calculate the dimension of the variety of its subspace representations having fixed dimension vector. The dimension is given in terms of the Euler quadratic form associated with a partially ordered set,…
