The Negative Pedal Curve (NPC) of the Ellipse with respect to a boundary point M is a 3-cusp closed-curve which is the affine image of the Steiner Deltoid. Over all M the family has invariant area and displays an array of interesting…
In this paper, we study several topics on pedal polygons. First, we prove the existence for pedal centers of triangles in a new way. From its proof, we find that the sum of area of outer and inner polygons is invariant under rotation.…
The pedal of a curve in the Euclidean plane is a classical subject which has a singular point at the inflection point of the original curve or the pedal point. The primitive of a curve is a curve given by the inverse construction for making…
One of the general problems in algebraic geometry is to determine algorithmically whether or not a given geometric object, defined by explicit polynomial equations (e.g. a curve or a surface), satisfies a given property (e.g. has…
Invariant curves are generally closed curves in the Poincare's surface of section. Here we study an interesting dynamical phenomenon, first discovered by Binney et al. (1985) in a rotating Kepler potential, where an invariant curve of the…
This paper explores equi-centro-affine extremal hypersurfaces in an ellipsoid. By analyzing the evolution of invariant submanifold flows under centro-affine unimodular transformations, we derive the first and second variational formulas for…
First, we fill in key gaps in Steiner's nice characterization of the most nearly circular ellipse which passes through the vertices of a convex quadrilateral, D. Steiner proved that there is only one pair of conjugate directions, M1 and M2,…
We consider smooth plane curves which are convex with respect to the origin. We describe centro-affine invariants (that is, GL_+(2,R)-invariants), such as centro-affine curvature and arc length, in terms of the canonical Lorentz structure…
In this paper we are concerned with the existence of invariant curves of planar twist mappings which are almost periodic in a spatial variable. As an application of this result to differential equations we will discuss the existence of…
We study the eleven points in the plane of a given triangle, whose pedal triangles are similar to the given one. We prove that the six points whose pedal triangles are positively oriented, lie on a single circle, while the five points,…
There is a modular curve X'(6) of level 6 defined over Q whose Q-rational points correspond to j-invariants of elliptic curves E over Q for which Q(E[2]) is a subfield of Q(E[3]). In this note we characterize the j-invariants of elliptic…
We are concerned with the invariants of Steiner chains consisting of four circles. In particular, we compute the invariant moments of curvatures in Steiner 4-chains and give two applications of the obtained formulas. Specifically, we…
In 1640's, Blaise Pascal discovered a remarkable property of a hexagon inscribed in a conic - Pascal Theorem, which gave birth of the projective geometry. In this paper, a new geometric invariant of algebraic curves is discovered by a…
A study of rational maps of the real or complex projective plane of degree two or more, concentrating on those which map an elliptic curve onto itself, necessarily by an expanding map. We describe relatively simple examples with a rich…
A four-parameter kinematic model for the position of a fluid parcel in a time-varying ellipse is introduced. For any ellipse advected by an arbitrary linear two-dimensional flow, the rates of change of the ellipse parameters are uniquely…
In this paper, we are concerned with the existence of invariant curves of the planar twist mappings where the perturbations are almost periodic. As an application, the existence of almost periodic solutions and the boundedness of all…
We describe invariants of centers of ellipse-inscribed triangle families with two vertices fixed to the ellipse boundary and a third one which sweeps it. We prove that: (i) if a triangle center is a fixed affine combination of barycenter…
Planar curves with periodically varying curvature arise in the natural sciences as the result of a wide variety of periodic processes. The total curvature of a periodic arc in such curves constrains their symmetry. It is shown how the total…
We consider a map $F$ of class $C^r$ with a fixed point of parabolic type whose differential is not diagonalizable and we study the existence and regularity of the invariant manifolds associated with the fixed point using the…
An elliptic curve defined over a number field possesses only a finite number of torsion points defined over the cyclotomic closure of its field of definition. In analogy to the relative version of the Manin-Mumford conjecture stated by…
