A graph is called (generically) rigid in $\mathbb{R}^d$ if, for any choice of sufficiently generic edge lengths, it can be embedded in $\mathbb{R}^d$ in a finite number of distinct ways, modulo rigid transformations. Here we deal with the…
Many discrete optimization problems amount to selecting a feasible set of edges of least weight. We consider in this paper the context of spatial graphs where the positions of the vertices are uncertain and belong to known uncertainty sets.…
We provide a combinatorial construction for linear codes attaining the maximum possible number of distinct weights. We then introduce the related problem of determining the existence of linear codes with an arbitrary number of distinct…
This paper addresses the problem of determining the maximum number of edges in a unit distance graph (UDG) of $n$ vertices using computer search. An unsolved problem of Paul Erd\H{o}s asks the maximum number of edges $u(n)$ a UDG of $n$…
We consider logics derived from Euclidean spaces $\mathbb{R}^n$. Each Euclidean space carries relations consisting of those pairs that are, respectively, distance more than 1 apart, distance less than 1 apart, and distance 1 apart. Each…
We establish upper bounds for the size of two-distance sets in Euclidean space and spherical two-distance sets. The main recipe for obtaining upper bounds is the spectral method. We construct Seidel matrices to encode the distance relations…
We consider the unlabeled motion-planning problem of $m$ unit-disc robots moving in a simple polygonal workspace of $n$ edges. The goal is to find a motion plan that moves the robots to a given set of $m$ target positions. For the unlabeled…
We analyze the asymptotic properties of a Euclidean optimization problem on the plane. Specifically, we consider a network with three bins and $n$ objects spatially uniformly distributed, each object being allocated to a bin at a cost…
Given a set P of n points in the plane, the unit-disk graph G_{r}(P) with respect to a parameter r is an undirected graph whose vertex set is P such that an edge connects two points p, q \in P if the Euclidean distance between p and q is at…
The Tammes problem delves into the optimal arrangement of $N$ points on the surface of the $n$-dimensional unit sphere (denoted as $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}$), aiming to maximize the minimum distance between any two points. In this paper, we…
We prove that if $P$ is a set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{C}^2$, then either the points in $P$ determine $\Omega(n^{1-\epsilon})$ complex distances, or $P$ is contained in a line with slope $\pm i$. If the latter occurs then each pair of…
We study a finite-field analogue of the Erd\H{o}s distinct distances problem under the Hamming metric. For a set \(S\subseteq \mathbb{F}_q^n\) let $\Delta(S)$ denote the set of Hamming distances determined by \(S\). We prove the lower bound…
Extending some properties from the Euclidean plane to any normed plane, we show the validity of the Monma-Paterson-Suri-Yao algorithm for finding the maximum-weighted spanning tree of a set of $n$ points, where the weight of an edge is the…
We construct $(2n)^2\times (2n)^2$ unitary braid matrices $\hat{R}$ for $n\geq 2$ generalizing the class known for $n=1$. A set of $(2n)\times (2n)$ matrices $(I,J,K,L)$ are defined. $\hat{R}$ is expressed in terms of their tensor products…
We consider the problem of choosing Euclidean points to maximize the sum of their weighted pairwise distances, when each point is constrained to a ball centered at the origin. We derive a dual minimization problem and show strong duality…
A special case of a combinatorial theorem of De Bruijn and Erdos asserts that every noncollinear set of n points in the plane determines at least n distinct lines. Chen and Chvatal suggested a possible generalization of this assertion in…
We show that for any large $n$, there exists a set of $n$ points in the plane with $O(n^2/\sqrt{\log n})$ distinct distances, such that any four points in the set determine at least five distinct distances. This answers (in the negative) a…
We give theorems that can be used to upper bound the densities of packings of different spherical caps in the unit sphere and of translates of different convex bodies in Euclidean space. These theorems extend the linear programming bounds…
In this paper using the concept of the extended Hamming code we give a construction for dense packing of points at distance at least one in such unit cubes which dimension are a power of two.
In this paper we present the results from a program developed by the author that finds the unitals of the known 193 projective planes of order 25.. There are several planes for which we have not found any unital. One or more than one…
