We derive the plasticity equations for convex quadrilaterals on a complete convex surface with bounded specific curvature and prove a plasticity principle which states that: Given four shortest arcs which meet at the weighted…

We obtain an important generalization of the inverse weighted Fermat-Torricelli problem for tetrahedra in R^3 by assigning at the corresponding weighted Fermat-Torricelli point a remaining positive number (residual weight). As a…

The weighted Fermat-Torricelli problem for four non-collinear points in R^2 states that: Given four non-collinear points A_1, A_2, A_3,A_4 and a positive real number (weight) B_i which correspond to each point A_i, for i = 1, 2, 3, 4, find…

We obtain an analytical solution for the weighted Fermat-Torricelli problem for an equilateral geodesic triangle A_1A_2A_3 which is composed by three equal geodesic arcs (sides) of length Pi/2 for given three positive unequal weights that…

We obtain two analytic solutions for the weighted Fermat-Torricelli problem in the Euclidean Plane which states that: Given three points in the Euclidean plane and a positive real number (weight) which correspond to each point, find the…

The weighted Fermat-Torricelli problem for four non-collinear and non-coplanar points in the three dimensional Euclidean Space states that: Given four non-collinear and non-coplanar points A1, A2, A3, A4 and a positive real number (weight)…

We consider the problem of packing congruent circles with the maximum radius in a unit square as a mathematical optimization problem. Due to the presence of non-overlapping constraints, this problem is a notoriously difficult nonconvex…

We present a generalized formulation for reweighted least squares approximations. The goal of this article is twofold: firstly, to prove that the solution of such problem can be expressed as a convex combination of certain interpolants when…

We determine a positive real number (weight) which corresponds to the intersection point (vertex) of two non-overlapping geodesic arcs, which depends on the two weights which correspond to two points of these geodesicarcs, respectively, and…

We study a generalized Fermat-Torricelli (S.FT) problem for infinitesimal geodesic triangles on a C^2 complete surface M with variable Gaussian curvature a < K < b, for a, b in R, such that the intersection point (generalized…

The article studies a generalization of the classical Fermat-Torricelli problem to normed spaces of arbitrary finite dimension. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the uniqueness of the solution of the Fermat-Torricelli problem for any…

We describe a percolation problem on lattices (graphs, networks), with edge weights drawn from disorder distributions that allow for weights (or distances) of either sign, i.e. including negative weights. We are interested whether there are…

One of the oldest and richest problems from continuous location science is the famous Fermat-Torricelli problem, asking for the unique point in Euclidean space that has minimal distance sum to n given (non-collinear) points. Many natural…

Convex geometries are closure systems satisfying the anti-exchange axiom. Every finite convex geometry can be embedded into a convex geometry of finitely many points in an n-dimensional space equipped with a convex hull operator, by the…

We present a geometrical analysis on the completely positive programming reformulation of quadratic optimization problems and its extension to polynomial optimization problems with a class of geometrically defined nonconvex conic programs…

We consider a directed variant of the negative-weight percolation model in a two-dimensional, periodic, square lattice. The problem exhibits edge weights which are taken from a distribution that allows for both positive and negative values.…

Almost all available results in elasticity on curved topographies are obtained within either a small curvature expansion or an empirical covariant generalization that accounts for screening between Gaussian curvature and disclinations. In…

We investigate the Fermat-Torricelli problem in d-dimensional real normed spaces or Minkowski spaces, mainly for d=2. Our approach is to study the Fermat-Torricelli locus in a geometric way. We present many new results, as well as give an…

We present new exact solutions for two-dimensional geometries generated by continuous distributions of topological defects within a conformal metric framework. By reformulating Einstein's equations in two dimensions as a Poisson equation…

This article belongs to the area of geometric tomography, which is the study of geometric properties of solids based on data about their sections and projections. We describe a new direction in geometric tomography where different…
