A perfect triangle is a triangle with rational sides, medians, and area. In this article, we use a similar strategy due to Pocklington to show that if $\Delta$ is a perfect triangle, then it cannot be an isosceles triangle. It gives a…
We will first solve the following problem analytically: given a piece of wire of specified length, we will find where the wire should be cut and bent to form two regular polygons not necessarily having the same number of sides, so that the…
The optimal pair of two linear varieties is considered as a best approximation problem, namely the distance between a point and the difference set of two linear varieties. The Gram determinant allows to get the optimal pair in closed form.
The distance between the true and numerical solutions in some metric is considered as the discretization error magnitude. If error magnitude ranging is known, the triangle inequality enables the estimation of the vicinity of the approximate…
We consider several problems that involve lines in three dimensions, and present improved algorithms for solving them. The problems include (i) ray shooting amid triangles in $R^3$, (ii) reporting intersections between query lines…
In this paper, we propose new techniques for solving geometric optimization problems involving interpoint distances of a point set in the plane. Given a set $P$ of $n$ points in the plane and an integer $1 \leq k \leq \binom{n}{2}$, the…
The mathematical modeling of numerous real-world applications results in hierarchical optimization problems with two decision makers where at least one of them has to solve an optimal control problem of ordinary or partial differential…
Problems in optimization and geometric probability are discussed, all connected with angles subtended at an observer's eye by an object at a distance. Several of these remain unsolved.
Thomson problem is a classical problem in physics to study how $n$ number of charged particles distribute themselves on the surface of a sphere of $k$ dimensions. When $k=2$, i.e. a 2-sphere (a circle), the particles appear at equally…
We describe a randomized algorithm that, given a set $P$ of points in the plane, computes the best location to insert a new point $p$, such that the Delaunay triangulation of $P\cup\{p\}$ has the largest possible minimum angle. The expected…
Recently wide application in engineering-economic problems was received with problems of vector optimization. Development of methods of the decision of these problems it is executed in works A. Messac and others. Complexity of the offered…
An optimal control problem for the continuity equation is considered. The aim of a controller is to maximize the total mass within a target set at a given type moment. An iterative numerical algorithm for solving this problem is presented.
These notes represent an extended version of a talk I gave for the participants of the IMO 2009 and other interested people. We introduce diophantine equations and show evidence that it can be hard to solve them. Then we demonstrate how one…
We propose a general convex optimization problem for computing regularized geodesic distances. We show that under mild conditions on the regularizer the problem is well posed. We propose three different regularizers and provide analytical…
Necessary conditions for high-order optimality in smooth nonlinear constrained optimization are explored and their inherent intricacy discussed. A two-phase minimization algorithm is proposed which can achieve approximate first-, second-…
The optimal one-sided parametric polynomial approximants of a circular arc are considered. More precisely, the approximant must be entirely in or out of the underlying circle of an arc. The natural restriction to an arc's approximants…
Higher-dimensional orthogonal packing problems have a wide range of practical applications, including packing, cutting, and scheduling. Combining the use of our data structure for characterizing feasible packings with our new classes of…
The objective here is to find the maximum polygon, in area, which can be enclosed in a given triangle, for the polygons: parallelograms, rectangles and squares. It will initially be assumed that the choices are inscribed polygons, that is…
Spectral estimation can be preformed using the so called THREE-like approach. Such method leads to a convex optimization problem whose solution is characterized through its dual problem. In this paper, we show that the dual problem can be…
