We develop a circle of ideas involving pairs of lines in the plane, intersections of hyperbolically rotated elliptical cones and the locus of the centers of rectangles inscribed in lines in the plane.

It is known that cyclic configurations of a planar polygonal linkage are critical points of the signed area function. In the paper, we announce an explicit formula of the Morse index for the signed area of a cyclic configuration. It depends…

Let $S$ be a complete flat surface, such as the Euclidean plane. We obtain direct characterizations of the connected components of the space of all curves on $S$ which start and end at given points in given directions, and whose curvatures…

We show how our recent results on compositions of d.c. functions (and mappings) imply positive results on extensions of d.c. functions (and mappings). Examples answering two natural relevant questions are presented. Two further theorems,…

The Jacobian conjecture over a field of characteristic zero is considered directly in view of the nonlinear partial differential equations it is associated with. Exploring the integrals of such partial differential equations, this work…

We establish the second part of Milnor's conjecture on the volume of simplexes in hyperbolic and spherical spaces. A characterization of the closure of the space of the angle Gram matrices of simplexes is also obtained.

This is a study of the construction of particular regular sub-n-gons T in regular n-gons P using a special system of chords of P. In particular, some of these sub-n-gons have areas which are integer divisors of the area of the given n-gon…

This paper studies the configuration spaces of linkages whose underlying graph is a single cycle. Assume that the edge lengths are such that there are no configurations in which all the edges lie along a line. The main results are that,…

Basic facts and definitions of conformal moduli of rings and quadrilaterals are recalled. Some computational methods are reviewed. For the case of quadrilaterals with polygonal sides, some recent results are given. Some numerical…

Consider the Poincare disc model for hyperbolic geometry. In this paper, a convenient computational formula is developed along with an aesthetic geometric interpretation. Two proofs, one geometric and one analytical, of each result are…

In this paper, we show some applications to algebraic cycles by using higher Abel-Jacobi maps which were defined in [the author: Motives and algebraic de Rham cohomology]. In particular, we prove that the Beilinson conjecture on algebraic…

We give a historical perspective on the role of the cyclic category in the development of cyclic theory. This involves a continuous interplay between the extension in characteristic one and in S-algebras, of the traditional development of…

This paper investigates the rigidity of bordered polyhedral surfaces. Using the variational principle, we show that bordered polyhedral surfaces are determined by boundary value and discrete curvatures on the interior edges. As a corollary,…

We show that cyclic products of projections onto convex subsets of Hadamard spaces can behave in a more complicated way than in Hilbert spaces, resolving a problem formulated by Miroslav Ba\v{c}\'ak. Namely, we construct an example of…

Motivated by Elementary Problem B-1172 in the Fibonacci Quarterly (vol. 53, no. 3, pg. 273), formulas for the areas of triangles and other polygons having vertices with coordinates taken from various sequences of integers are obtained. The…

The size function for a number field is an analogue of the dimension of the Riemann-Roch spaces of divisors on an algebraic curve. It was conjectured to attain its maximum at the trivial class of Arakelov divisors. This conjecture was…

We develop the theory of Abelian functions associated with cyclic trigonal curves by considering two new cases. We investigate curves of genus six and seven and consider whether it is the trigonal nature or the genus which dictates certain…

We confirm two conjectures of Lassak on the area of reduced spherical polygons. The area of every reduced spherical non-regular $n$-gon is less than that of the regular spherical $n$-gon of the same thickness. Moreover, the area of every…

Rudin conjectured that there are never more than c N^(1/2) squares in an arithmetic progression of length N. Motivated by this surprisingly difficult problem we formulate more than twenty conjectures in harmonic analysis, analytic number…

Using the circle method, we count integer points on complete intersections in biprojective space in boxes of different side length, provided the number of variables is large enough depending on the degree of the defining equations and…
