We study ideal lattices in $\mathbb{R}^2$ coming from real quadratic fields, and give an explicit method for computing all well-rounded twists of any such ideal lattice. We apply this to ideal lattices coming from Markoff numbers to…
We derive a series of results on random walks on a d-dimensional hypercubic lattice (lattice paths). We introduce the notions of terse and simple paths corresponding to the path having no backtracking parts (spikes). These paths label…
The Ehrhart polynomial of a lattice polygon P is completely determined by the pair (b(P),i(P)) where b(P) equals the number of lattice points on the boundary and i(P) equals the number of interior lattice points. All possible pairs…
Based on a fairly precise approximation to the lattice discrepancy of a Lame disc, an asymptotic formula is established for the number of lattice points in a related three-dimensional body, linearly dilated by a large real parameter x.…
A model is presented consisting of triangular trimers on the triangular lattice. In analogy to the dimer problem, these particles cover the lattice completely without overlap. The model has a honeycomb structure of hexagonal cells separated…
This paper treats triangles in the plane whose vertices lie on the integer lattice, i.e., the vertices have integer coordinates. It shows that apart from trivial examples, the circumcenter, centroid and orthocenter of such triangles never…
This paper is a continuation of an earlier one, and completes a classification of the configurations of points in a plane lattice that determine angles that are rational multiples of ${\pi}$. We give a complete and explicit description of…
In this short note, we give a lower bound on the number of congruence classes of triangles in a small set of points in $\mathbb{F}_p^2$. More precisely, for $\mathcal{A}\subset \mathbb{F}_p^2$ with $|\mathcal{A}|\le p^{2/3}$, we prove that…
We present a complete solution to the so-called tennis ball problem, which is equivalent to counting lattice paths in the plane that use North and East steps and lie between certain boundaries. The solution takes the form of explicit…
In this article we prove some theorems related to the triplets of triangles, homological two by two. These theorems will be used later to build triplets of triangles two by two tri-homological.
We consider a new type of mappings in metric spaces which can be characterized as mappings contracting perimeters of triangles. It is shown that such mappings are continuous. The fixed-point theorem for such mappings is proved and the…
Computational topology is a vibrant contemporary subfield and this article integrates knot theory and mathematical visualization. Previous work on computer graphics developed a sequence of smooth knots that were shown to converge point wise…
It is shown how exactly solved edge interaction models on the square lattice, may be extended onto more general planar graphs, with edges connecting a subset of next nearest neighbour vertices of $\mathbb{Z}^3$. This is done by using local…
The categories of almost modules and almost algebras are introduced as a convenient setting for the development of Faltings' method of almost etale extensions. After some preliminaries of general "almost homological algebra" we construct…
Almost $50$ years ago Erd\H{o}s and Purdy asked the following question: Given $n$ points in the plane, how many triangles can be approximate congruent to equilateral triangles? They pointed out that by dividing the points evenly into three…
Complemented lattices and uniquely complemented lattices are very important, not only in mathematics, but also in physics, biology, and even in social sciences. They have been investigated for a long time, especially by Huntington,…
In this paper we present a new version of the second author's factorization theorem for perfect matchings of symmetric graphs. We then use our result to solve four open problems of Propp on the enumeration of trimer tilings on the hexagonal…
A long-standing, unanswered question regarding Euclid's Elements concerns the absence of a theorem for the concurrence of the altitudes of a triangle, and the possible reasons for this omission. In the centuries following Euclid, a…
We confirm a conjecture of Monical, Tokcan and Yong on a characterization of the lattice points in the Newton polytopes of key polynomials.
We give an answer to the following question: for which metric in an abstract lattice the completion as a metric space coincides with the completion as a lattice. We obtain the answer for inductive limits of lattices which are complete in…
