We highlight the relation between the projective geometries of $n$-dimensional Euclidean, spherical and hyperbolic spaces through the projective models of these spaces in the $n+1$-dimensional Minkowski space, using a cross ratio notion…

The Minkowski functionals are a mathematical tool to quantify morphological features of patterns. Some applications to the matter distribution in galaxy catalogues and N-body simulations are reviewed, with an emphasis on the effects of…

In this work, the dual flatness, which is connected with Statistics and Information geometry, of general $(\alpha,\beta)$-metrics (a new class of Finsler metrics) is studied. A nice characterization for such metrics to be dually flat under…

Given a quadratic two-parameter matrix polynomial in Newton basis $Q_{N} (\lambda ,\mu)$, we construct a vector space of linear two-parameter matrix polynomials and identify a set of linearizations which lie in the vector space. We also…

The basic theory on relativistic positioning systems in a two-dimensional space-time has been presented in two previous papers [Phys. Rev. D {\bf 73}, 084017 (2006); {\bf 74}, 104003 (2006)], where the possibility of making relativistic…

In this paper we generalize in Lorentz-Minkowski space $\l^3$ the two-dimensional analogue of the catenary of Euclidean space. We solve the Dirichlet problem for bounded mean convex domains and spacelike boundary data that have a spacelike…

The description of principal lines of the ellipsoid on the 3-dimensional Minkowski space is established. A global principal parametrization of a triple orthogonal system of quadrics is also achieved, and the focal set of the ellipsoid is…

An algebraic investigation on bicomplex numbers is carried out here. Particularly matrices and linear maps defined on them are discussed. A new kind of cartesian product, referred to as an idempotent product, is introduced and studied. The…

We study the local dimensions and local multifractal properties of measures on doubling metric spaces. Our aim is twofold. On one hand, we show that there are plenty of multifractal type measures in all metric spaces which satisfy only mild…

A list of all possible causal relations in the $2$-dimensional Minkowski space $M$ is exhausted, based on the duality between timelike and spacelike in this particular case, and thirty topologies are introduced, all of them encapsulating…

We present a new method for embedding a causal set into an interval of Minkowski spacetime. The method uses spacetime volumes for causally related elements to define causal set analogs of Minkowski inner products. These are used to…

It is shown that causal automorphisms on two-dimensional Minkowski spacetime can be characterized by the invariance of the wave equations.

It is easy to show that the lower and the upper box dimensions of a bounded set in Euclidean space are invariant with respect to the ambient space. In this article we show that the Minkowski content of a Minkowski measurable set is also…

Diakonov theory of quantum gravity, in which tetrads emerge as the bilinear combinations of the fermionis fields,\cite{Diakonov2011} suggests that in general relativity the metric may have dimension 2, i.e. $[g_{\mu\nu}]=1/[L]^2$. Several…

We introduce canonical coordinates on minimal time-like surfaces in the n-dimensional Minkowski space and prove the existence and the uniqueness of these parameters. With respect to these coordinates the coefficients of the first…

A class of elliptic-hyperbolic equations is placed in the context of a geometric variational theory, in which the change of type is viewed as a change in the character of an underlying metric. A fundamental example of a metric which changes…

We study the Light-Ray transform of integrating vector fields on the Minkowski time-space R^{1+n}, n bigger than equal 2, with the Minkowski metric. We prove a support theorem for vector fields vanishing on an open set of light-like…

We study the geometry of curves in the Minkowski space and in the de Sitter space, specially at points where the tangent direction is lightlike (i.e. has length zero) called lightlike points of the curve. We define the focal sets of these…

A well-known theorem of Assouad states that metric spaces satisfying the doubling property can be snowflaked and bi-Lipschitz embedded into Euclidean spaces. Due to the invariance of many geometric properties under bi-Lipschitz maps, this…

In this paper we examine two basic topological properties of partial metric spaces, namely compactness and completeness. Our main result claims that in these spaces compactness is equivalent to sequential compactness. We also show that…
