A method for the analytical evaluation of layer potentials arising in the collocation boundary element method for the Laplace and Helmholtz equation is developed for piecewise flat boundary elements with polynomial shape functions. The…

We give a complete enumeration of all 2-neighborly $d$-polytopes with $d+9$ and less facets. All of them are realized as 0/1-polytopes, except a 6-polytope $P_{6,10,15}$ with 10 vertices and 15 facets, and pyramids over $P_{6,10,15}$. In…

We introduce a new measure for planar point sets S that captures a combinatorial distance that S is from being a convex set: The reflexivity rho(S) of S is given by the smallest number of reflex vertices in a simple polygonalization of S.…

We consider light ray reflections in $n$-dimensional semi-infinite tube, for $n\geq 3$, made of Lambertian material. The source of light is placed far away from the exit, and the light ray is assumed to reflect so that the distribution of…

We study a general class of quadratic BSDEs with terminal value in Lp for p > 1. First of all, we give an Lp-type estimate and existence result. Under the additional assumption of monotonicity and convexity, we derive the comparison…

Let P be a lattice polytope in R^n, and let P \cap Z^n = {v_1,...,v_N}. If the N + \binom N2 points 2v_1,...,2v_N; v_1+v_2,...v_{N-1}+v_N are distinct, we say that P is a "distinct pair-sum" or "dps" polytope. We show that, if P is a dsp…

We derive tight expressions for the maximum number of $k$-faces, $0\le k\le d-1$, of the Minkowski sum, $P_1+P_2+P_3$, of three $d$-dimensional convex polytopes $P_1$, $P_2$ and $P_3$, as a function of the number of vertices of the…

This paper extends the recently obtained complete and continuous map of the Lattice Isometry Space (LISP) to the practical case of dimension 3. A periodic 3-dimensional lattice is an infinite set of all integer linear combinations of basis…

It is widely believed that point sets in the plane which determine few distinct distances must have some special structure. In particular, such sets are believed to be similar to a lattice. This note considers two different ways to quantify…

We determine lattice polytopes of smallest volume with a given number of interior lattice points. We show that the Ehrhart polynomials of those with one interior lattice point have largest roots with norm of order n^2, where n is the…

We investigate injective dimension of $F$-finite $F$-modules in characteristic $p$ and holonomic $D$-modules in characteristic 0. One of our main results is the following. If, either $R$ is a regular ring of finite type over an infinite…

We present here quantitative versions in 1 dimension of Faltings'theorem according to which the set of the K-rational points (where K is a given number field) of an abelian variety A definied over K, which are close (with respect to a…

We derive tight expressions for the maximum number of $k$-faces, $0\le{}k\le{}d-1$, of the Minkowski sum, $P_1\oplus{}P_2$, of two $d$-dimensional convex polytopes $P_1$ and $P_2$, as a function of the number of vertices of the polytopes.…

A polygon $P$ is called a reptile, if it can be decomposed into $k\ge 2$ nonoverlapping and congruent polygons similar to $P$. We prove that if a cyclic quadrilateral is a reptile, then it is a trapezoid. Comparing with results of U. Betke…

Let $K$ be a convex body in $\Bbb R^{d}$ and $K_{t}$ its floating bodies. There is a polytope with at most $n$ vertices that satisfies $$ K_{t} \subset P_{n} \subset K $$ where $$ n \leq e^{16d} \frac{vol_{d}(K \setminus K_{t})}{t\…

We establish sharp asymptotic estimates for the diameter of primitive zonotopes when their dimension is fixed. We also prove that, for infinitely many integers $k$, the largest possible diameter of a lattice zonotope contained in the…

If a convex body C has modular and irreducible face lattice (and is not strictly convex), there is a face-preserving homeomorphism from C to a section of a cone of hermitian matrices or C has dimension 8, 14 or 26.

The notion of a "root base" together with its geometry plays a crucial role in the theory of finite and affine Lie theory. However, it is known that such a notion does not exist for the recent generalizations of finite and affine root…

For a finite group $G$, the representation dimension is the smallest integer realizable as the degree of a complex faithful representation of $G$. In this article, we compute representation dimension for some $p$-groups, their direct…
