Any stretching of Ringel's non-Pappus pseudoline arrangement when projected into the Euclidean plane, implicitly contains a particular arrangement of nine triangles. This arrangement has a complex constraint involving the sines of its…
We study some natural operators acting on configurations of points and lines in the plane and remark that many interesting configurations are fixed points for these operators. We review ancient and recent results on line or point…
In this paper, we investigate the configuration theorems of Desargues and Pappus in a synthetic geometric way. We provide a bridge between the two configurations with a third one that can be considered a specification for both. We do not…
We apply an old method for constructing points-and-lines configurations in the plane to study some recent questions in incidence geometry.
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…
In this paper we introduce point-ellipse configurations and point-conic configurations. We study some of their basic properties and describe two interesting families of balanced point-ellipse, respectively point-conic $6$-configurations.…
This paper begins by extending the notion of a combinatorial configuration of points and lines to a combinatorial configuration of points and planes that we refer to as configurations of order $2$. We then proceed to investigate a further…
We start by introducing the basics of configurations of points and lines, and then move into discussing symmetry groups of these configurations. Specifically, we explore how we might classify the symmetries of $(9_3)$ and $(10_3)$ geometric…
We investigate several topological and combinatorial properties of line arrangements. We associate to a line arrangement a link obtained by intersecting the arrangement with some sphere. Several topics are discussed: (a) some link…
There are several notions of duality between lines and points. In this note, it is shown that all these can be studied in a unified way. Most interesting properties are independent of specific choices. It is also shown that either dual…
In this paper we present a smallest possible counterexample to the Numerical Terao's Conjecture in the class of line arrangements in the complex projective plane. Our example consists of a pair of two arrangements with $13$ lines. Moreover,…
We study equilibrium configurations of infinitely many identical particles on the real line or finitely many particles on the circle, such that the (repelling) force they exert on each other depends only on their distance. The main question…
In this paper we present a set transformation of points in a line of the Desargues affine plane in a additive group. For this, the first stop on the meaning of the Desargues affine plane, formulating first axiom of his that show proposition…
We study the reciprocal position of nine points in the plane, according to their collinearities. In particular, we consider the case in which the nine points are contained in an irreducible cubic curve and we give their classification. If…
In this paper, we construct an infinite series of line arrangements in characteristic two, each featuring only triple intersection points. This finding challenges the existing conjecture that suggests the existence of only a finite number…
It is well known that not every combinatorial configuration admits a geometric realization with points and lines. Moreover, some of them do not even admit realizations with pseudoline arrangements, i.e., they are not topological. In this…
We show that various classical theorems of real/complex linear incidence geometry, such as the theorems of Pappus, Desargues, M\"obius, and so on, can be interpreted as special cases of a single "master theorem" that involves an arbitrary…
In this article, I focus on the resiliency of the P=?NP problem. The main point to deal with is the change of the underlying logic from first to second-order logic. In this manner, after developing the initial steps of this change, I can…
We study the change of the minimal degree of a logarithmic derivation of a hyperplane arrangement under the addition or the deletion of a hyperplane, and give a number of applications. First, we prove the existence of Tjurina maximal line…
In this article we combinatorially describe the triangles that are present in two types of line arrangements, those which have global cyclicity and those which are infinity type line arrangements. A combinatorial nomenclature has been…
