A periodic orbit on a frictionless billiard table is a piecewise linear path of a billiard ball that begins and ends at the same point with the same angle of incidence. The period of a primitive periodic orbit is the number of times the…

A vector balleans is a vector space over $\mathbb{R}$ endowed with a coarse structure in such a way that the vector operations are coarse mappings. We prove that, for every ballean $(X, \mathcal{E})$, there exists the unique free vector…

So far, no boron fullerenes were synthesized: more compact sp3-bonded clusters are energetically preferred. To circumvent this, metallic clusters have been suggested by Pochet et al. [Phys. Rev. B 83, 081403(R) (2011)] as "seeds" for a…

This article describes a natural piecewise Euclidean bi-simplicial cell structure for the space of $n$-element multisets in a fixed Euclidean rectangle. In particular, we highlight some connections with spaces of complex polynomials and…

A matrix algebra is constructed which consists of the necessary degrees of freedom for a finite approximation to the algebra of functions on the family of orthogonal Grassmannians of real dimension 2N, known as complex quadrics. These…

We determine the spectra of cubic plane graphs whose faces have sizes 3 and 6. Such graphs, "(3,6)-fullerenes", have been studied by chemists who are interested in their energy spectra. In particular we prove a conjecture of Fowler, which…

We geometrically prove that in a d-dimensional cube with edges of length n, the number of particular d-dimensional tetrahedrons are given by Eulerian numbers. These tetrahedrons tassellate the cube, In this way the sum of the cubes are the…

We define reflective modular forms on complex balls and use a method of Gritsenko and Hulek to show that some ball quotients of dimensions 3, 4 and 5 are uniruled. We give examples of Hermitian lattices over the rings of integers of…

We study the Thurston-Bennequin number of complete and complete bipartite Legendrian graphs. We define a new invariant called the total Thurston-Bennequin number of the graph. We show that this invariant is determined by the…

A piecewise flat manifold is a triangulated manifold given a geometry by specifying edge lengths (lengths of 1-simplices) and specifying that all simplices are Euclidean. We consider the variation of angles of piecewise flat manifolds as…

The concepts of symmetry and symmetry groups are at the heart of several developments in modern theoretical and mathematical physics. The present paper is devoted to a number of selected topics within this framework: Euclidean and rotation…

The hierarchical structure of the butterfly fractal -- the Hofstader butterfly, is found to be described by an octonary tree. In this framework of building the butterfly graph, every iteration generates sextuplets of butterflies, each with…

The purpose of this paper is to give explicit methods for bounding the number of vertices of finite $k$-regular graphs with given second eigenvalue. Let $X$ be a finite $k$-regular graph and $\mu_1(X)$ the second largest eigenvalue of its…

The bulk polarization is a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ topological invariant characterizing non-interacting systems in one dimension with chiral or particle-hole symmetries. We show that the bulk polarization can always be determined from the…

It is known that for each combinatorial type of convex 3-dimensional polyhedra, there is a representative with edges tangent to the unit sphere. This representative is unique up to projective transformations that fix the unit sphere. We…

After Curl, Kroto and Smalley were awarded 1996 the Nobel Prize in chemistry, fullerenes have been subject of much research. One part of that research is the prediction of a fullerene's stability using topological descriptors. It was mainly…

We consider the problem of characterizing the convex hull of the graph of a bilinear function $f$ on the $n$-dimensional unit cube $[0,1]^n$. Extended formulations for this convex hull are obtained by taking subsets of the facets of the…

We construct a sphere-homeomorphic flexible self-intersection free polyhedron in Euclidean 3-space such that all its dihedral angles change during some flex of this polyhedron. The constructed polyhedron has 26 vertices, 72 edges and 48…

Guided by physical needs, we deal with the rotationally isotropic Poincar\'e ball, when considering the complement of Borromean rings embedded in it. We consistently describe the geometry of the complement and realize the fundamental group…

Integer cuboids are rectangular Diophantine parallelepipeds It has been discovered that these cuboids come in 3 varieties: Euler or body type, edge type, and face type. In all three cases, one edge or diagonal is irrational, all six others…
