We study rationality questions for Fano schemes of linear spaces on smooth complete intersections of two quadrics, especially over non-closed fields. Our approach is to study hyperbolic reductions of the pencil of quadrics associated to…
We consider the rational linear relations between real numbers whose squared trigonometric functions have rational values, angles we call ``geodetic''. We construct a convenient basis for the vector space over Q generated by these angles.…
Let $k$ be a field with char $k\neq 2$ and $k$ be not algebraically closed. Let $a\in k\setminus k^2$ and $L=k(\sqrt{a})(x,y)$ be a field extension of $k$ where $x,y$ are algebraically independent over $k$. Assume that $\sigma$ is a…
We consider various problems related to finding points in $\Q^{2}$ and in $\Q^{3}$ which lie at rational distance from the vertices of some specified geometric object, for example, a square or rectangle in $\Q^{2}$, and a cube or…
Starting from any given rational-sided, right triangle, for example the $(3,4,5)$-triangle with area $6$, we use Euclidean geometry to show that there are infinitely many other rational-sided, right triangles of the same area. We show…
The aim of this paper is to present inversion methods for the classical Radon transform which is defined on a family of $k$ dimensional planes in $\Bbb R^{n}$ where $1\leq k\leq n - 2$. For these values of $k$ the dimension of the set…
A rational triangle is a triangle with rational sides and rational area. A Heron triangle is a triangle with integral sides and integral area. In this article we will show that there exist infinitely many rational parametrizations, in terms…
We give a closed formula for the dimension of all linear systems in $\mathbb{P}^n$ with assigned multiplicity at arbitrary collections of points lying on a rational normal curve of degree $n$. In particular we give a purely geometric…
Using lattice theory, Hulek and Sch\"utt proved that for every $m\in\mathbb{Z}_+$ there exists a nine-dimensional family $\mathcal{F}_m$ of K3 surfaces covering Enriques surfaces having an elliptic pencil with a rational bisection of…
Here we examine some Erdos-Falconer-type problems in vector spaces over finite fields involving right angles. Our main goals are to show that a) a subset A of F_q^d of size >> q^[(d+2)/3] contains three points which generate a right angle,…
Here is a square problem: in a unit square, is there a point with four rational distances to the vertices? A probability argument suggests a negative answer. This paper proves several special cases of the square problem: if the point sits…
We define hyperbolic Heron triangles (hyperbolic triangles with "rational" side-lengths and area) and parametrize them in two ways as rational points of certain elliptic curves. We show that there are infinitely many hyperbolic Heron…
We present two algorithms for constructing orthonormal bases of rational function vectors with respect to a discrete inner product, and discuss how to use them for a rational approximation problem. Building on the pencil-based formulation…
Let $R = k[x]/I$ where $I$ is the defining ideal of a rational normal $k$-scroll. We compute the Betti numbers of the ground field $\mathbb{k}$ as a module over $R$. For $k = 2$, we give the minimal free resolution of $\mathbb{k}$ over $R$.
Fix $k,s,n\in \mathbb N$, and consider non-zero integers $c_1,\ldots ,c_s$, not all of the same sign. Provided that $s\ge k(k+1)$, we establish a Hasse principle for the existence of lines having integral coordinates lying on the affine…
In this paper, we establish improved effective irrationality measures for certain numbers of the form $\sqrt[3]{n}$, using approximations obtained from hypergeometric functions. These results are very close to the best possible using this…
Vertex bisection is a graph partitioning problem in which the aim is to find a partition into two equal parts that minimizes the number of vertices in one partition set that have a neighbor in the other set. We are interested in giving…
We consider the problem of partitioning a line segment into two subsets, so that $n$ finite measures all have the same ratio of values for the subsets. Letting $\alpha\in[0,1]$ denote the desired ratio, this generalises the PPA-complete…
Let $\mathcal{M}\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be a compact and sufficiently smooth manifold of dimension $d$. Suppose $\mathcal{M}$ is nowhere completely flat. Let $N_{\mathcal{M}}(\delta,Q)$ denote the number of rational vectors $\mathbf{a}/q$…
We generalize the Khinchin singularity phenomenon for the problem when, for a given irrational linear subspace, we are looking for rational subspaces that form the smallest angle with the given
