We consider the problem of mirror invisibility for plane sets. Given a circle and a finite number of unit vectors (defining the directions of invisibility) such that the angles between them are commensurable with $\pi$, for any $\varepsilon…
It is well known that two finite sequences of vectors in inner product spaces are unitarily equivalent if and only if their respective inner products (Gram matrices) are equal. Here we present a corresponding result for the projective…
We present a family of finite unit-distance graphs in the plane that are not 4-colourable, thereby improving the lower bound of the Hadwiger-Nelson problem. The smallest such graph that we have so far discovered has 1581 vertices.
We study the generalized analogues of conics for normed planes by using the following natural approach: It is well known that there are different metrical definitions of conics in the Euclidean plane. We investigate how these definitions…
A survey of tilings in the plane for a general audience.
For each integer $k \in [0,9]$, we count the number of plane cubic curves defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ that do not share a common component and intersect in exactly $k\ \mathbb{F}_q$-rational points. We set this up as a…
A biunimodular vector of a unitary matrix $A \in U(n)$ is a vector $v \in \mathbb{T}^n\subset\bc^n$ such that $Av \in \mathbb{T}^n$ as well. Over the last 30 years, the sets of biunimodular vectors for Fourier matrices have been the object…
We provide a human-verifiable proof that, in a certain sense, the chromatic number of the plane is exactly 7.
We give a simple proof of a nice formula for the means and covariances of the diagonal sums of a uniformly random boxed plane parition.
A 2-uniform tiling is an edge-to-edge tiling by regular polygons having $2$ distinct transitivity classes of vertices. There are 20 distinct 2-uniform tilings (these are of $14$ different types) on the plane, and since the plane is the…
A $1$-plane graph is a graph embedded in the plane such that each edge is crossed at most once. A NIC-plane graph is a $1$-plane graph such that any two pairs of crossing edges share at most one end-vertex. An edge partition of a $1$-plane…
The objects of study are triangulations of the dilated standard triangle in the plane. Motivated by work on T-curves (Geiselmann et al., 2026), the focus lies on unimodular triangulations with a fixed symmetry axis. Lower and upper bounds…
We improve on the lower bound of the maximum number of planes in $\operatorname{PG}(8,q)\cong\F_q^{9}$ pairwise intersecting in at most a point. In terms of constant dimension codes this leads to $A_q(9,4;3)\ge q^{12}+…
We classify the parabolic unitals in regular nearfield planes of odd order $q^2$ whose linear collineation group has the maximal size of $q^3-q$. We also establish a number of more general results concerning parabolic unitals in regular…
We discuss the concept of Cremona contractible plane curves, with an historical account on the development of this subject. We then classify Cremona contractible unions of d > 11 lines in the plane.
We discuss various forms of the Luxemburg norm in spaces of random vectors with coordinates belonging to the classical Orlicz spaces of exponential type. We prove equivalent relations between some kinds of these forms. We also show when the…
In this article we completely determine the possible dimensions of integral points and holomorphic curves on the complement of a union of hyperplanes in projective space. Our main theorems generalize a result of Evertse and Gyory, who…
In this paper, we consider the rectilinear one-center problem on uncertain points in the plane. In this problem, we are given a set $P$ of $n$ (weighted) uncertain points in the plane and each uncertain point has $m$ possible locations each…
One way to define Witt vectors starts with a truncation poset $S \subset \mathbb{N}$. We generalize Witt vectors to truncation posets, and show how three types of maps of truncation posets can be used to encode the following six structure…
We generalize the classical K\"onig's and B\"ottcher's Theorems in complex dynamics to certain quasiregular mappings in the plane. Our approach to these results is unified in the sense that it does not depend on the local injectivity, or…
