In this note, we given a version of Pick's theorem for the simple lattice polygon in two-dimensional subspace of R^3.
The number of lattice points $\left| tP \cap \mathbb{Z}^d \right|$, as a function of the real variable $t>1$ is studied, where $P \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ belongs to a special class of algebraic cross-polytopes and simplices. It is shown that…
We review and possibly add some new variant to the existing derivations of the formula for the area of Jordan lattice polygons drawn on two-dimensional lattices. The formula is known as Pick's theorem and is related to the number theory…
A lattice point in $\mathbb{R}^2$ is a point $(x,y)$ with $x,y\in\mathbb{Z}$, and a lattice triangle is a triangle whose three vertices are all lattice points. We investigate the integers $k$ with the property that if $T$ is a lattice…
We give an algorithmic proof of Pick's theorem which calculates the area of a lattice-polygon in terms of the lattice-points.
We consider the lattice point problem corresponding to a family of elliptic paraboloids in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with $d\ge3$ and we prove the expected to be optimal exponent, improving previous results. This is especially noticeable for $d=3$…
We discuss generalizations of some results on lattice polygons to certain piecewise linear loops which may have a self-intersection but have vertices in the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^2$. We first prove a formula on the rotation number of a…
We study a combinatorial problem that recently arose in the context of shape optimization: among all triangles with vertices $(0,0)$, $(x,0)$, and $(0,y)$ and fixed area, which one encloses the most lattice points from $\mathbb{Z}_{>0}^2$?…
Pick's theorem is used to prove that if $P$ is a lattice polygon (that is, the convex hull of a finite set of lattice points in the plane), then every lattice point in the $h$-fold sumset $hP$ is the sum of $h$ lattice points in $P$.
In this paper, we consider a conjecture of Erdos and Rosenfeld and a conjecture of Ruzsa when the number is an almost square. By the same method, we consider lattice points of a circle close to the x-axis with special radii.
This is a survey article on the theory of lattice points in large planar domains and bodies of dimensions 3 and higher, with an emphasis on recent developments and new methods, including a lot of results established only during the last few…
We study the set of visible lattice points in multidimensional hypercubes. The problems we investigate mix together geometric, probabilistic and number theoretic tones. For example, we prove that almost all self-visible triangles with…
We use the idea of the broken stick problem (which goes back to Poincare) and calculate the corresponding probabilities for the cases in which the three broken part are: the medians in a triangle, the altitudes, radii of excircles, angle…
This paper is dedicated to a lattice analog to the classical ``sum of interior angles of a polygon theorem''. In 2008, the first formula expressing conditions on the geometric continued fractions for lattice angles of triangles was derived,…
In the first part of this paper, we obtain symmetric formulae for the probabilities that a plane convex body hits exactly 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 triangles of a lattice of congruent triangles in the plane. Furthermore, a very simple formula for…
This paper concerns the number of lattice points in a circle.
The problem of finding the number of lattice points in a triangle has a classical solution if the lattice is $\mathbf{Z}^2$ and the vertices of the triangle have integer valued coordinates. We consider what happens when we replace the…
We consider the problem of optimizing the product of the distances from a given point in a triangle to each vertex. There are two possible cases in general. For isosceles triangles, we explicitly show exactly when both cases occur.
In this paper we study properties of lattice trigonometric functions of lattice angles in lattice geometry. We introduce the definition of sums of lattice angles and establish a necessary and sufficient condition for three angles to be the…
In this paper we are concerned with three lattice problems: the lattice packing problem, the lattice covering problem and the lattice packing-covering problem. One way to find optimal lattices for these problems is to enumerate all finitely…
