A perfect straight-line matching $M$ on a finite set $P$ of points in the plane is a set of segments such that each point in $P$ is an endpoint of exactly one segment. $M$ is non-crossing if no two segments in $M$ cross each other. Given a…

We consider the convergence rate of the alternating projection method for the nontransversal intersection of a semialgebraic set and a linear subspace. For such an intersection, the convergence rate is known as sublinear in the worst case.…

Random arrangements of points in the plane, interacting only through a simple hard core exclusion, are considered. An intensity parameter controls the average density of arrangements, in analogy with the Poisson point process. It is proved…

Let $P$ be a set of points in general position in the plane. Join all pairs of points in $P$ with straight line segments. The number of segment-crossings in such a drawing, denoted by $\crg(P)$, is the \emph{rectilinear crossing number} of…

Periodic Geometry studies isometry invariants of periodic point sets that are also continuous under perturbations. The motivations come from periodic crystals whose structures are determined in a rigid form but any minimal cells can…

Given a homogenous Poisson point process in the plane, we prove that it is possible to partition the plane into bounded connected cells of equal volume, in a translation-invariant way, with each point of the process contained in exactly one…

In this paper we have shown that a double sequence in a topological space satisfies certain conditions which in turn are capable to generate a topology on a non empty set. Also we have used the idea of I-convergence of double sequences to…

Let S(1) be the segment [-1,1], and define the segments S(n) recursively in the following manner: let S(n+1) be the intersection of S(n) and a(n+1) + S(1), where the point a(n+1) is chosen randomly on the segment S(n) with uniform…

Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in the plane, each point moving along a given trajectory. A {\em $k$-collinearity} is a pair $(L,t)$ of a line $L$ and a time $t$ such that $L$ contains at least $k$ points at time $t$, the points along $L$ do…

Two families $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ of sets are said to be cross-intersecting if each member of $\mathcal{A}$ intersects each member of $\mathcal{B}$. For any two integers $n$ and $k$ with $0 \leq k \leq n$, let ${[n] \choose \leq…

For every pattern $P$, consisting of a finite set of points in the plane, $S_{P}(n,m)$ is defined as the largest number of similar copies of $P$ among sets of $n$ points in the plane without $m$ points on a line. A general construction,…

We classify complex hyperplane arrangements $\mathcal A$ whose intersection posets $L(\mathcal A)$ satisfy $L(\mathcal A)=\pi_i^{-1}\circ\pi_i\bigl(L(\mathcal A)\bigr)$ for $i=1,\dots,n$. Here $\pi_i$ denotes the projection from $\mathbb…
