A cap of spherical radius $\alpha$ on a unit $d$-sphere $S$ is the set of points within spherical distance $\alpha$ from a given point on the sphere. Let $\mathcal F$ be a finite set of caps lying on $S$. We prove that if no hyperplane…

We present a new algorithmic approach that can be used to determine whether a given quadruple $(f_0,f_1,f_2,f_3)$ is the f-vector of any convex 4-dimensional polytope. By implementing this approach, we classify the f-vectors of 4-polytopes…

Let $K$ be a field, $a, b\in K$ and $ab\neq 0$. Let us consider the polynomials $g_{1}(x)=x^n+ax+b, g_{2}(x)=x^n+ax^2+bx$, where $n$ is a fixed positive integer. In this paper we show that for each $k\geq 2$ the hypersurface given by the…

Using Fourier analysis, Covert, Hart, Iosevich and Uriarte-Tuero (2008) showed that if the cardinality of a subset of the 2-dimensional vector space over a finite field with q elements is >= rq^2, with q^{-1/2} << r <= 1 then it contains an…

Tverberg's theorem is one of the cornerstones of discrete geometry. It states that, given a set $X$ of at least $(d+1)(r-1)+1$ points in $\mathbb R^d$, one can find a partition $X=X_1\cup \ldots \cup X_r$ of $X$, such that the convex hulls…

Nonlinear deformations of the enveloping algebra of su(2), involving two arbitrary functions of J_0 and generalizing the Witten algebra, were introduced some time ago by Delbecq and Quesne. In the present paper, the problem of endowing some…

Suppose S is a planar set. Two points a,b in S 'see each other' via S if [a,b] is included in S . F. Valentine proved in 1957 that if S is closed, and if for every three points of S, at least two see each other via S, then S is a union of…

Let S be a set of distinct points in general position in the Euclidean plane. A plane Hamiltonian path on S is a crossing-free geometric path such that every point of S is a vertex of the path. It is known that, if S is sufficiently large,…

An irreducible smooth projective curve over $\mathbb{F}\_q$ is called \textit{pointless} if it has no $\mathbb{F}\_q$-rational points. In this paper we study the lower existence bound on the genus of such a curve over a fixed finite field…

When considering geometry, one might think of working with lines and circles on a flat plane as in Euclidean geometry. However, doing geometry in other spaces is possible, as the existence of spherical and hyperbolic geometry demonstrates.…

This paper considers the problem of many-to-many disjoint paths in the hypercube $Q_n$ with $f$ faulty vertices and obtains the following result. For any integer $k$ with $1\leq k\leq n-2$, any two sets $S$ and $T$ of $k$ fault-free…

In this paper we show that every complex hypersurface $A$ in a Stein manifold $X$ with $H^2(X;\mathbb Z)=0$ is the divisor of a holomorphic function $f$ on $X$ whose critical points are precisely the singular points of $A$. A similar result…

We prove that a surface in real 3-space containing a line and a circle through each point is a quadric. We also give some particular results on the classification of surfaces containing several circles through each point.

Let $\mathcal{F}_g$ be the family of monic odd-degree hyperelliptic curves of genus $g$ over $\mathbb{Q}$. Poonen and Stoll have shown that for every $g \geq 3$, a positive proportion of curves in $\mathcal{F}_g$ have no rational points…

The numbers of $\mathbb{F}_q$-points of nonsingular hypersurfaces of a fixed degree in an odd-dimensional projective space are investigated, and an upper bound for them is given. Also we give the complete list of nonsingular hypersurfaces…

Let $X, Y$ be smooth algebraic varieties of the same dimension. Let $f, g : X \to Y$ be finite polynomial mappings. We say that $f, g$ are equivalent if there exists a regular automorphism $\Phi \in Aut(X)$ such that $f = g\circ \Phi$. Of…

In this paper we characterize real bivariate polynomials which have a small range over large Cartesian products. We show that for every constant-degree bivariate real polynomial $f$, either $|f(A,B)|=\Omega(n^{4/3})$, for every pair of…

We prove the following result which was conjectured by Stichtenoth and Xing: let $g$ be the genus of a projective, irreducible non-singular curve over the finite field $\Bbb F_{q^2}$ and whose number of $\Bbb F_{q^2}$-rational points…

An old theorem, due to Graustein, asserts that the average curvature of a plane oval is attained at least at four points. We present a proof by way of wave propagation and extend this result to the spherical and hyperbolic geometries - in…

We establish the non-singular Hasse Principle for pairs of diagonal quartic equations in 22 or more variables. Our methods involve the estimation of a certain entangled two-dimensional 21st moment of quartic smooth Weyl sums via a novel…
