We give a constructive and flexible proof of a result of P. Gorkin and R. Mortini concerning a special finite interpolation problem on the unit circle with interpolating Blaschke products. Our proof also shows that the result can be…
The aim of this paper is to study lattice-like coverings with congruent translation balls and the packings and coverings with a type of translation cylinders in Sol space related to the fundamental lattices. We introduce the notions of the…
The most efficient way to pack equally sized spheres isotropically in 3D is known as the random close packed state, which provides a starting point for many approximations in physics and engineering. However, the particle size distribution…
We introduce decorated piecewise hyperbolic and spherical surfaces and discuss their discrete conformal equivalence. A decoration is a choice of circle about each vertex of the surface. Our decorated surfaces are closely related to…
We demonstrate that in N-body simulations of isolated disc galaxies there is numerical vertical heating which slowly increases the vertical velocity dispersion and the disc thickness. Even for models with over a million particles in a disc,…
We discuss several ways of packing a hyperbolic surface with circles (of either varying radii or all being congruent) or horocycles, and note down some observations related to their symmetries (or the absence thereof).
We provide a new type of proof for the Koebe-Andreev-Thurston (KAT) planar circle packing theorem based on combinatorial edge-flips. In particular, we show that starting from a disk packing with a maximal planar contact graph $G$, one can…
An accurate description of a columnar liquid crystal of hard disks at high packing fractions is presented using an improved free-volume theory. It is shown that the orientational entropy of the disks in the one-dimensional fluid direction…
In this paper we will deal with problems in approximation theory of bounded analytic functions on the unit disc and their boundary behavior on the unit circle. We will attempt to unify two known such theorems to create a stronger theorem.…
We suggest a geometrical framework to discuss periodic layered structures in the unit disk. The band gaps appear when the point representing the system approaches the unit circle. We show that the trace of the matrix describing the basic…
We show that there exist flat surface bundles with closed leaves having non-trivial normal bundles. This leads us to compute the Abelianisation of surface diffeomorphism groups with marked points. We also extend a formula of Tsuboi that…
In this work, a unimodular random planar triangulation is constructed that has no invariant circle packing. This disputes a problem asked in [arXiv:1910.01614]. A natural weaker problem is the existence of point-stationary circle packings…
We consider the space of embeddings of finitely many circles that bound disks in non-positively curved surfaces. We index the connected components of this space with finite rooted trees and show that the connected components are classifying…
In this paper we study "discrete polynomial blending," a term used to define a certain discretized version of curve blending whereby one approximates from the "sum of tensor product polynomial spaces" over certain grids. Our strategy is to…
We investigate the stellar disk properties of a sample of 19 nearby spiral galaxies with low inclination and late Hubble type (Scd or later). We combine our high-resolution HST I-band observations with existing ground-based optical images…
Given a finite set S in $[0,1]^2$ including the origin, an anchored rectangle packing is a set of non-overlapping rectangles in the unit square where each rectangle has a point of S as its left-bottom corner and contains no point of S in…
Results of Sierpinski and others have shown that certain finite-dimensional product sets can be written as unions of subsets, each of which is "narrow" in a corresponding direction; that is, each line in that direction intersects the subset…
A well-known theorem of Rodin \& Sullivan, previously conjectured by Thurston, states that the circle packing of the intersection of a lattice with a simply connected planar domain $\Omega$ into the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ converges to a…
The so-called weighted solid Cauchy transform, from inside the unit disc into the complement of its closure, is considered and their basic properties such as boundedness is studied for appropriate probability measures. The action the disc…
The Blaschke rolling disk theorem is a classical inclusion principle in differential geometry. This states that a planar convex domain whose boundary is a curve of class $C^2$ with (signed) curvature not exceeding a positive constant…
