A curve in the plane is $x$-monotone if every vertical line intersects it at most once. A family of curves are called pseudo-segments if every pair of them have at most one point in common. We construct $2^{\Omega(n^{4/3})}$ families, each…

An arrangement of circles in which circles intersect only in angles of $\pi/2$ is called an \emph{arrangement of orthogonal circles}. We show that in the case that no two circles are nested, the intersection graph of such an arrangement is…

We study the set of all pseudoline arrangements with contact points which cover a given support. We define a natural notion of flip between these arrangements and study the graph of these flips. In particular, we provide an enumeration…

Fix an integer n>=1. Suppose that a simple polygon is the union of n triangles whose vertices along the common boundary are arranged cyclically. How many sides can such a union -- to be called regular -- have at most? This gives OEIS…

Motivated by the successful application of geometry to proving the Harary-Hill Conjecture for "pseudolinear" drawings of $K_n$, we introduce "pseudospherical" drawings of graphs. A spherical drawing of a graph $G$ is a drawing in the unit…

Arrangements of lines and pseudolines are fundamental objects in discrete and computational geometry. They also appear in other areas of computer science, such as the study of sorting networks. Let $B_n$ be the number of nonisomorphic…

A pseudo-triangle is a simple polygon with exactly three convex vertices, and all other vertices (if any) are distributed on three concave chains. A pseudo-triangulation~$\mathcal{T}$ of a point set~$P$ in~$\mathbb{R}^2$ is a partitioning…

A tripartite-circle drawing of a tripartite graph is a drawing in the plane, where each part of a vertex partition is placed on one of three disjoint circles, and the edges do not cross the circles. We present upper and lower bounds on the…

We introduce near triple arrays as binary row-column designs with at most two consecutive values for the replication numbers of symbols, for the intersection sizes of pairs of rows, pairs of columns and pairs of a row and a column. Near…

A tripartite-circle drawing of a tripartite graph is a drawing in the plane, where each part of a vertex partition is placed on one of three disjoint circles, and the edges do not cross the circles. The tripartite-circle crossing number of…

In this paper, we study arrangements of orthogonal circles, that is, arrangements of circles where every pair of circles must either be disjoint or intersect at a right angle. Using geometric arguments, we show that such arrangements have…

A drawing of a graph in the plane is {\it pseudolinear} if the edges of the drawing can be extended to doubly-infinite curves that form an arrangement of pseudolines, that is, any pair of edges crosses precisely once. A special case are…

We show that for large enough $n$, the number of non-isomorphic pseudoline arrangements of order $n$ is greater than $2^{c\cdot n^2}$ for some constant $c > 0.2604$, improving the previous best bound of $c>0.2083$ by Dumitrescu and Mandal…

Arrangements of pseudolines are classic objects in discrete and computational geometry. They have been studied with increasing intensity since their introduction almost 100 years ago. The study of the number $B_n$ of non-isomorphic simple…

We show that a set of $n$ algebraic plane curves of constant maximum degree can be cut into $O(n^{3/2}\operatorname{polylog} n)$ Jordan arcs, so that each pair of arcs intersect at most once, i.e., they form a collection of pseudo-segments.…

A pseudodiagram is a diagram of a knot with some crossing information missing. We review and expand the theory of pseudodiagrams introduced by R. Hanaki. We then extend this theory to the realm of virtual knots, a generalization of knots.…

Let $G$ denote a distance-regular graph with diameter $D\ge 3$, valency $k$, and intersection numbers $a_i$, $b_i$, $c_i$. By a {\it pseudo cosine sequence} of $G$ we mean a sequence of real numbers $s_0, s_1, ..., s_D$ such that $s_0=1$…

Let $A$ be a noetherian ring and $R_A$ be the graded ring $A[X,Y,Z,T]$. In this article we introduce the notion of a triad, which is a generalization to families of curves in ${\bf P}^3_A$ of the notion of Rao module. A triad is a complex…

An ordinary circle of a set $P$ of $n$ points in the plane is defined as a circle that contains exactly three points of $P$. We show that if $P$ is not contained in a line or a circle, then $P$ spans at least $\frac{1}{4}n^2 - O(n)$…

We study a non-trivial extreme case of the orchard problem for $12$ pseudolines and we provide a complete classification of pseudoline arrangements having $19$ triple points and $9$ double points. We have also classified those that can be…
