Rigid frameworks in some Euclidian space are embedded graphs having a unique local realization (up to Euclidian motions) for the given edge lengths, although globally they may have several. We study the number of distinct planar embeddings…

Thurston's circle packing approximation of the Riemann Mapping (proven to give the Riemann Mapping in the limit by Rodin-Sullivan) is largely based on the theorem that any topological disk with a circle packing metric can be deformed into a…

We prove that there is an absolute constant $ C$ such that for every $ n \geq 2 $ and $ N\geq 10^n, $ there exists a polytope $ P_{n,N} \subset \mathbb{R}^n $ with at most $ N $ facets that satisfies…

This paper considers affine analogues of the isoperimetric inequality in the sense of piecewise linear topology. Given a closed polygon P embedded in R^d having n edges, we give upper and lower bounds for the minimal number of triangles…

In this note we present the solution of some isoperimetric problems in open convex cones of $\R^n$ in which perimeter and volume are measured with respect to certain nonradial weights. Surprisingly, Euclidean balls centered at the origin…

We consider a variation of the classical Erd\H{o}s-Szekeres problems on the existence and number of convex $k$-gons and $k$-holes (empty $k$-gons) in a set of $n$ points in the plane. Allowing the $k$-gons to be non-convex, we show bounds…

Erd\H{o}s conjectured in 1946 that every n-point set P in convex position in the plane contains a point that determines at least floor(n/2) distinct distances to the other points of P. The best known lower bound due to Dumitrescu (2006) is…

A disk graph is an intersection graph of disks in the Euclidean plane, where the disks correspond to the vertices of the graph and a pair of vertices are adjacent if and only if their corresponding disks intersect. The problem of…

For any finite set $\A$ of $n$ points in $\R^2$, we define a $(3n-3)$-dimensional simple polyhedron whose face poset is isomorphic to the poset of ``non-crossing marked graphs'' with vertex set $\A$, where a marked graph is defined as a…

In this paper we prove that any convex body of the d-dimensional Euclidean space (d>1) possesses at least one shortest generalized billiard trajectory moreover, any of its shortest generalized billiard trajectories is of period at most d+1.…

We consider a hyperbolic polygon in the unit disk $\{z:\, |z|<1\}$ with all its vertices on the unit circle $\{z:\, |z|=1\}$ and a growth process of such polygons when each $n$-gon generates an $n(n-1)$-gon by inverting itself across all of…

A tiling is a decomposition of a polygon into finitely many non-overlapping triangles. We prove that if a regular n-gon, $n \geq 5$, $n \neq 28$, can be tiled with similar right triangles, then one of the angles of these triangles is in…

The detour between two points u and v (on edges or vertices) of an embedded planar graph whose edges are curves is the ratio between the shortest path in in the graph between u and v and their Euclidean distance. The maximum detour over all…

As was pointed out by Nikulin [8] and Vinberg [10], a right-angled polyhedron of finite volume in hyperbolic n-space $\mathbb{H}^n$ has at least one cusp for $n\geq 5$. We obtain non-trivial lower bounds on the number of cusps of such…

We show that every heptagon is a section of a $3$-polytope with $6$ vertices. This implies that every $n$-gon with $n\geq 7$ can be obtained as a section of a $(2+\lfloor\frac{n}{7}\rfloor)$-dimensional polytope with at most…

Polytopes are the basic finite data structures for convex sets: they appear as feasible regions in linear optimization, as geometric summaries in algorithms, and as random objects in stochastic geometry. A natural geometric question is…

We study the problem of partitioning a polygon into the minimum number of subpolygons using cuts in predetermined directions such that each resulting subpolygon satisfies a given width constraint. A polygon satisfies the unit-width…

The diameter of the graph of a $d$-dimensional polyhedron with $n$ facets is at most $n^{\log d+2}$

We show that a realization of a closed connected PL-manifold of dimension n-1 in n-dimensional Euclidean space (n>2) is the boundary of a convex polyhedron (finite or infinite) if and only if the interior of each (n-3)-face has a point,…

A covering problem posed by Henri Lebesgue in 1914 seeks to find the convex shape of smallest area that contains a subset congruent to any point set of unit diameter in the Euclidean plane. Methods used previously to construct such a…
