We combine geometric methods with numerical box search algorithm to show that the minimal area of a convex set on the plane which can cover every closed plane curve of unit length is at least 0.0975. This improves the best previous lower…

Let $\delta_0(P,k)$ denote the degree $k$ dilation of a point set $P$ in the domain of plane geometric spanners. If $\Lambda$ is the infinite square lattice, it is shown that $1+\sqrt{2} \leq \delta_0(\Lambda,3) \leq (3+2\sqrt2) \, 5^{-1/2}…

We consider the problem of finding the closest lattice point to a vector in n-dimensional Euclidean space when each component of the vector is available at a distinct node in a network. Our objectives are (i) minimize the communication cost…

In this paper, we prove that the set of triangulations of a polygon can be equipped with an order to become a lattice. First, we define this order. In [HN99], authors defined the flip operator and then prove some properties of the graph of…

This} paper presents relations between least area and normal surfaces, embedded in either a Euclidean or hyperbolic $3$-manifold. A relaxed version of normal surfaces, termed quasi-normal, is introduced, and it is shown that under…

The dispersion of a point set in the unit square is defined to be the area of the largest empty axis-parallel box. In this paper we are interested in the dispersion of lattices in the plane, that is, the supremum of the area of the empty…

Let n points be placed on a closed convex domain on the plane, no three points on a straight line. A conjecture by H. A. Heilbronn (before 1950) stated that on the convex domain of unit area the smallest triangle defined by these points has…

A small polygon is a polygon of unit diameter. The maximal area of a small polygon with $n=2m$ vertices is not known when $m\ge 7$. Finding the largest small $n$-gon for a given number $n\ge 3$ can be formulated as a nonconvex quadratically…

It is a well known phenomenon that many classical minimal surfaces in Euclidean space also exist with higher dihedral symmetry. More precisely, these surfaces are solutions to free boundary problems in a wedge bounded by two vertical planes…

This paper is dedicated to a lattice analog to the classical ``sum of interior angles of a polygon theorem''. In 2008, the first formula expressing conditions on the geometric continued fractions for lattice angles of triangles was derived,…

A small polygon is a polygon of unit diameter. The maximal area of a small polygon with $n=2m$ vertices is not known when $m \ge 7$. In this paper, we construct, for each $n=2m$ and $m\ge 3$, a small $n$-gon whose area is the maximal value…

In this paper we consider min-max minimal surfaces in three-manifolds and prove some rigidity results. For instance, we prove that any metric on a 3-sphere which has scalar curvature greater than or equal to 6 and is not round must have an…

We study theoretical and computational aspects of the least squares fit (LSF) of circles and circular arcs. First we discuss the existence and uniqueness of LSF and various parametrization schemes. Then we evaluate several popular circle…

We show that any convex region which contains a unit segment, an equilateral triangle of sides 1/2, and a square of side 1/3 always has area at least 0.227498. Using grid-search algorithm, we attempt to find a configuration of these three…

This paper deals with lattices $(L,\Vert~\Vert)$ over polynomial rings, where $L$ is a finitely generated module over $k[t]$, the polynomial ring over the field $k$ in the indeterminate $t$, and $\Vert~\Vert$ is a discrete real-valued…

We develop an algorithm computing the transcendental lattice and the Mordell--Weil group of an extremal elliptic surface. As an example, we compute the lattices of four exponentially large series of surfaces

Finding, counting and/or listing triangles (three vertices with three edges) in large graphs are natural fundamental problems, which received recently much attention because of their importance in complex network analysis. We provide here a…

Assume we are given a set of parallel line segments in the plane, and we wish to place a point on each line segment such that the resulting point set maximizes or minimizes the area of the largest or smallest triangle in the set. We analyze…

This paper attacks the following problem. We are given a large number $N$ of rectangles in the plane, each with horizontal and vertical sides, and also a number $r<N$. The given list of $N$ rectangles may contain duplicates. The problem is…

In this paper we prove new upper bounds for the length of a shortest closed geodesic, denoted $l(M)$, on a complete, non-compact Riemannian surface $M$ of finite area $A$. We will show that $l(M) \leq 4\sqrt{2A}$ on a manifold with one end,…
