In 1900, as a part of his 18th problem, Hilbert proposed the question to determine the densest congruent (or translative) packings of a given solid, such as the unit ball or the regular tetrahedron of unit edges. Up to now, our knowledge…
A compact hyperbolic "cobweb" manifold (hyperbolic space form) of symbol $Cw(6,6,6)$ will be constructed in Fig.1,4,5 as a representant of a presumably infinite series $Cw(2p,2p,2p)$ $(3 \le p \in \bN$ natural numbers). This is a by-product…
We analyze the general problem of determining optimally dense packings, in a Euclidean or hyperbolic space, of congruent copies of some fixed finite set of bodies. We are strongly guided by examples of aperiodic tilings in Euclidean space…
Previous work of the authors with Bus Jaco determined a lower bound on the complexity of cusped hyperbolic 3-manifolds and showed that it is attained by the monodromy ideal triangulations of once-punctured torus bundles. This paper exhibits…
In this article we obtain linear programming bounds for the maximal sphere packing density of commutative spaces. A special case of our results solves a conjecture by Cohn and Zhao on linear programming bounds for sphere packings in…
Determining the minimum density of a covering of $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ by Euclidean unit balls as $n\to\infty$ is a major open problem, with the best known results being the lower bound of $\left(\mathrm{e}^{-3/2}+o(1)\right)n$ by Coxeter, Few…
We prove that given a fixed radius $r$, the set of isometry-invariant probability measures supported on ``periodic'' radius $r$-circle packings of the hyperbolic plane is dense in the space of all isometry-invariant probability measures on…
In previous work a probabilistic approach to controlling difficulties of density in hyperbolic space led to a workable notion of optimal density for packings of bodies. In this paper we extend an ergodic theorem of Nevo to provide an…
Dense hard-particle packings are intimately related to the structure of low-temperature phases of matter and are useful models of heterogeneous materials and granular media. Most studies of the densest packings in three dimensions have…
A connection between real poles of the growth functions for Coxeter groups acting on hyperbolic space of dimensions three and greater and algebraic integers is investigated. In particular, a geometric convergence of fundamental domains for…
We obtain an asymptotic formula for the number of circles of curvature at most T in any given bounded Apollonian circle packing. For an integral packing, we obtain the upper bounds for the number of circles with prime curvature as well as…
We establish a new characterization of the homogeneous Besov spaces $\dot{\mathcal B}^{s}_{p,q}(Z)$ with smoothness $s \in (0,1)$ in the setting of doubling metric measure spaces $(Z,d,\mu)$. The characterization is given in terms of a…
We classify Coxeter decompositions of hyperbolic tetrahedra, i.e. simplices in the hyperbolic space H^3. The paper completes the classification of Coxeter decompositions of hyperbolic simplices.
This paper describes the local density inequality approach to getting upper bounds for sphere packing densities in R^n. This approach was first suggested by L. Fejes-Toth in 1956 to prove the Kepler conjecture that the densest sphere…
The note shows an easy way to improve E.H. Smith's packing density bound in $\mathbb{R}^3$ from $0.53835...$ to $0.54755...$ .
In [6], Kellerhals and Perren conjectured that the growth rates of the reflection groups given by hyperbolic Coxeter polyhedra are always Perron numbers. We prove that this conjecture is always true for the case of ideal Coxeter polyhedra…
We formulate the problem of generating dense packings of nonoverlapping, non-tiling polyhedra within an adaptive fundamental cell subject to periodic boundary conditions as an optimization problem, which we call the Adaptive Shrinking Cell…
In the early 1990s, A. Bezdek and W. Kuperberg used a relatively simple argument to show a surprising result: The maximum packing density of circular cylinders of infinite length in $\mathbb{R}^3$ is exactly $\pi/\sqrt{12}$, the planar…
We present the densest known packing of regular tetrahedra with density phi = 4000/4671 = 0.856347... Like the recently discovered packings of Kallus et al. [arXiv:0910.5226] and Torquato-Jiao [arXiv:0912.4210], our packing is crystalline…
We study the elliptic curves given by $y^2 = x^3 + b x + t^{3^n+1}$ over global function fields of characteristic $3$; in particular we perform an explicit computation of the $L$-function by relating it to the zeta function of a certain…
