We study generalization of median triangles on the plane with two complex parameters. By specialization of the parameters, we produce periodical motion of a triangle whose vertices trace each other on a common closed orbit.

We introduce the class of bounded variation (BV) functions in a general framework of strictly local Dirichlet spaces with doubling measure. Under the 2-Poincar\'e inequality and a weak Bakry-\'Emery curvature type condition, this BV class…

A well known notion of $k$-rectifiable set can be formulated in any metric space using Lipschitz images of subsets of $\mathbb{R}^k$. We prove some characterizations of $k$-rectifiability, when the metric space is an arbitrary homogeneous…

We introduce new definitions of sectional, Ricci and scalar curvature for networks and their higher dimensional counterparts, derived from two classical notions of curvature for curves in general metric spaces, namely, the Menger curvature…

We extend the mathematical theory of rigidity of frameworks (graphs embedded in $d$-dimensional space) to consider nonlocal rigidity and flexibility properties. We provide conditions on a framework under which (I) as the framework flexes…

It is known that spheres have negative type, but only subsets with at most one pair of antipodal points have strict negative type. These are conditions on the (angular) distances within any finite subset of points. We show that subsets with…

The configuration space of tricycles (triples of disks in contact) is shown to coincide with the complex plane resulting as a projective space costructed from the tangency and Pauli spinors. Remarkably, the fractal of the depth functions…

A Helly-type theorem for diameter provides a bound on the diameter of the intersection of a finite family of convex sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$ given some information on the diameter of the intersection of all sufficiently small subfamilies. We…

In the study of aperiodic order and mathematical models of quasicrystals, questions regarding equivalence relations on Delone sets naturally arise. This work is dedicated to the bounded displacement (BD) equivalence relation, and especially…

Starting from a finite simple graph $G$, for each eigenvalue $\theta$ of its adjacency matrix one can construct a convex polytope $P_G(\theta)$, the so called $\theta$-eigenpolytop of $G$. For some polytopes this technique can be used to…

In this paper, we introduce first the mixed affine quermassintegrals. The Aleksandrov-Fenchel inequality for the mixed affine quermassintegrals is established. As an application, the Minkowski, Brunn-Minkowski inequalities for the mixed…

We show that every minimum area isosceles triangle containing a given triangle $T$ shares a side and an angle with $T$. This proves a conjecture of Nandakumar motivated by a computational problem. We use our result to deduce that for every…

Classical (Euclidean) Laguerre geometry studies oriented hyperplanes, oriented hyperspheres, and their oriented contact in Euclidean space. We describe how this can be generalized to arbitrary Cayley-Klein spaces, in particular hyperbolic…

In this paper geometry of Gromov-Hausdorff distance on the class of all metric spaces considered up to an isometry is investigated. For this class continuous curves and their lengths are defined, and it is shown that the Gromov-Hausdorff…

Consider a finite collection of affine hyperplanes in $\mathbb R^d$. The hyperplanes dissect $\mathbb R^d$ into finitely many polyhedral chambers. For a point $x\in \mathbb R^d$ and a chamber $P$ the metric projection of $x$ onto $P$ is the…

We introduce the notion of a smocked metric spaces and explore the balls and geodesics in a collection of different smocked spaces. We find their rescaled Gromov-Hausdorff limits and prove these tangent cones at infinity exist, are unique,…

Gromov (2001) and Sturm (2003) proved that any four points in a $\mathrm{CAT}(0)$ space satisfy a certain family of inequalities. We call those inequalities the $\boxtimes$-inequalities, following the notation used by Gromov. In this paper,…

We derive bounds for the ball $L_p$-discrepancies in the Hamming space for $0<p<\infty$ and $p=\infty$. Sharp estimates of discrepancies have been obtained for many spaces such as the Euclidean spheres and more general compact Riemannian…

We use some fundamental ideas from complex analysis to create symmetric images and animations. Using a domain coloring algorithm, we generate mappings to the entire complex plane or the hyperbolic upper half-plane. The resulting designs can…

We show that the Banach-Mazur distance between the parallelogram and the affine-regular hexagon is $\frac{3}{2}$ and we conclude that the diameter of the family of centrally-symmetric planar convex bodies is just $\frac{3}{2}$. A proof of…
