We show that there exist reduced polytopes in three-dimensional Euclidean space. This partially answers the question posed by Lassak on the existence of reduced polytopes in $d$-dimensional Euclidean space for $d\geq 3$. Moreover, we prove…
It is known that the surface of a cone over the unit disc with large height has smaller distortion than the standard embedding of the 2-sphere in $\mathbb R^3$. In this note we show that distortion minimisers exist among convex embedded…
This paper characterizes all the convex domains which can form six-fold lattice tilings of the Euclidean plane. They are parallelograms, centrally symmetric hexagons, one type of centrally symmetric octagons and two types of decagons.
Several quantitative notions of rectifiability in the Heisenberg groups have emerged in the recent literature. In this paper we study the relationship between two of them, the big pieces of intrinsic Lipschitz graphs (BPiLG) condition and…
We show that the maximum number of pairwise intersecting positive homothets of a $d$-dimensional centrally symmetric convex body, none of which contains the center of another in its interior, is at most $3^{d+1}$. Also, we improve upper…
We provide a method to straighten each billiard trajectory in a flat disk. As an application, we show that for each point on the disk and for almost all directions, the closure of the corresponding billiard trajectory contains a vertex. We…
We prove that if a quasi-isometry of warped cones is induced by a map between the base spaces of the cones, the actions must be conjugate by this map. The converse is false in general, conjugacy of actions is not sufficient for…
We prove that each complete flat cone metric on a surface, perhaps with boundary and punctures, can be triangulated with finitely many types of triangles. We derive Gauss-Bonnet formula for this kind of cone metrics. In addition, we prove…
A unit spherical Euclidean distance matrix (EDM) D is a matrix whose entries can be realized as the interpoint (squared) Euclidean distances of n points on a unit sphere. In this paper, given such a D and 1 \leq k < l \leq n, we present a…
We present an icosahedral quasicrystal as a modification of the icosagrid, a multigrid with 10 plane sets that are arranged with icosahedral symmetry. We use the Fibonacci chain to space the planes, thereby obtaining a quasicrystal with…
Generalizing the octahedral configuration of six congruent cylinders touching the unit sphere, we exhibit configurations of congruent cylinders associated to a pair of dual Platonic bodies.
We consider the piecewise linear approximation of saddle functions of the form $f(x,y)=ax^2-by^2$ under the L-infinity error norm. We show that interpolating approximations are not optimal. One can get slightly smaller errors by allowing…
This paper discusses a general method for spectral type theorems using metric spaces instead of vector spaces. Advantages of this approach are that it applies to genuinely non-linear situations and also to random versions. Metric analogs of…
Geodesic nets on Riemannian manifolds form a natural class of stationary objects generalizing geodesics. Yet almost nothing is known about their classification or general properties even when the ambient Riemannian manifold is the Euclidean…
To a metric space $X$ we associate a compact topological space $\nu' X$ called the corona of $X$. Then a coarse map $f:X\to Y$ between metric spaces is mapped to a continuous map $\nu' f:\nu' X\to \nu' Y$ between coronas. Sheaf cohomology…
Random code-trees with necks were introduced recently to generalise the notion of $V$-variable and random homogeneous sets. While it is known that the Hausdorff and packing dimensions coincide irrespective of overlaps, their exact Hausdorff…
We prove a characterization for BLD-mappings between locally complete locally compact path-metric spaces. As a corollary we obtain a sharp limit theorem for BLD-mappings.
We give a proof, based on Lipschitz quotient mappings, for the fact that limits of BLD-mappings between manifolds of bounded geometry are BLD. Furthermore we show that such mappings share some properties of covering maps and especially have…
In this paper, we prove the identity $\dim_{\textrm H}(F)=d\cdot \dim_{\textrm H}(\alpha^{-1}(F))$, where $\dim_{\textrm H}$ denotes Hausdorff dimension, $F\subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$, and $\alpha:[0,1]\to [0,1]^d$ is a function whose…
There is the classical Radon theorem. Given integer $d \geq 1$ and $d+2$ points in d-dimensional space $R^d$. Then these points can be divided into two disjoint subsets whose convex hulls have a non-empty intersection. The original proof of…
