We tour several Euclidean properties of Poncelet triangles inscribed in an ellipse and circumscribing the incircle, including loci of triangle centers and envelopes of key objects. We also show that a number of degenerate behaviors are…
We study families of triangles that are inscribed in a fixed circle and circumscribed about a central conic, extending the classical Chapple--Euler relation within the framework of Poncelet geometry. We establish several geometric…
We compare loci types and invariants across Poncelet families interscribed in three distinct concentric Ellipse pairs: (i) ellipse-incircle, (ii) circumcircle-inellipse, and (iii) homothetic. Their metric properties are mostly identical to…
We describe some three-dozen curious phenomena manifested by parabolas inscribed or circumscribed about certain Poncelet triangle families. Despite their pirouetting motion, parabolas' focus, vertex, directrix, etc., will often sweep or…
We show that the focus of the Kiepert in-parabola remains stationary over a family of circle-inscribed Poncelet triangles which contain an equilateral triangle.
We prove that over a Poncelet triangle family interscribed between two nested ellipses $\mathcal{E},\mathcal{E}_c$, (i) the locus of the orthocenter is not only a conic, but it is axis-aligned and homothetic to a $90^o$-rotated copy of…
We study loci and properties of a Parabola-inscribed family of Poncelet polygons whose caustic is a focus-centered circle. This family is the polar image of a special case of the bicentric family with respect to its circumcircle. We…
We present a theory which predicts if the locus of a triangle center over certain Poncelet triangle families is a conic or not. We consider families interscribed in (i) the confocal pair and (ii) an outer ellipse and an inner concentric…
Given a triangle, a trio of circumellipses can be defined, each centered on an excenter. Over the family of Poncelet 3-periodics (triangles) in a concentric ellipse pair (axis-aligned or not), the trio resembles a rotating propeller, where…
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…
Poncelet polygons inscribed in a circle and circumscribed about conics from a confocal family naturally arise in the analysis of the numerical range and Blaschke products. We examine the behaviour of such polygons when the inscribed conic…
We analyze loci of triangle centers over variants of two-well known triangle porisms: the bicentric and confocal families. Specifically, we evoke the general version of Poncelet's closure theorem whereby individual sides can be made tangent…
We prove that over a generic Poncelet triangle family, the locus of the circumcenter of an inversive triangle is a conic. Additionally, we prove an earlier conjecture: over generic Poncelet triangles, two unique points exist which maintain…
The 1d family of Poncelet polygons interscribed between two circles is known as the Bicentric family. Using elliptic functions and Liouville's theorem, we show (i) that this family has invariant sum of internal angle cosines and (ii) that…
Can any secrets still be shed by that much studied, uniquely integrable, Elliptic Billiard? Starting by examining the family of 3-periodic trajectories and the loci of their Triangular Centers, one obtains a beautiful and variegated gallery…
We study center power with respect to circles derived from Poncelet 3-periodics (triangles) in a generic pair of ellipses as well as loci of their triangle centers. We show that (i) for any concentric pair, the power of the center with…
We study the loci of the Brocard points over two selected families of triangles: (i) 2 vertices fixed on a circumference and a third one which sweeps it, (ii) Poncelet 3-periodics in the homothetic ellipse pair. Loci obtained include…
We introduce several-dozen experimentally-found invariants of Poncelet N-periodics in the confocal ellipse pair (Elliptic Billiard). Recall this family is fully defined by two integrals of motion (linear and angular momentum), so any "new"…
We explore properties and loci of a Poncelet family of polygons -- called here Steiner-Soddy -- whose vertices are centers of circles in the Steiner porism, including conserved quantities, loci, and its relationship to other Poncelet…
Previously we showed the family of 3-periodics in the elliptic billiard (confocal pair) is the image under a variable similarity transform of poristic triangles (those with non-concentric, fixed incircle and circumcircle). Both families…
