The perfect cuboid problem is an old famous unsolved problem in mathematics concerning the existence or non-existence of a rectangular parallelepiped whose edges, face diagonals, and space diagonal are of integer lengths. Recently Walter…
The "Perpendicular Bisectors Construction" is a natural way to seek a replacement for the circumcenter of a noncyclic quadrilateral in the plane. In this paper, we generalize this iterative construction to a construction on polytopes with…
A quadrilateral of factors is an irreducible inclusion of factors $N \subset M$ with intermediate subfactors $P$ and $Q$ such that $P$ and $Q$ generate $M$ and the intersection of $P$ and $Q$ is $N$. We investigate the structure of a…
We consider the 3-body problem of celestial mechanics in Euclidean, elliptic, and hyperbolic spaces, and study how the Lagrangian (equilateral) relative equilibria bifurcate when the Gaussian curvature varies. We thus prove the existence of…
A theorem of Meyer and Reisner characterizes ellipsoids by the collinearity of centroids of parallel sections: if $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ is a convex body such that for every $n$-dimensional subspace $M\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ the…
In this paper we establish links between, and new results for, three problems that are not usually considered together. The first is a matrix decomposition problem that arises in areas such as statistical modeling and signal processing:…
The union of two quintic elliptic scrolls in P^4 intersecting transversally along an elliptic normal quintic curve is a singular surface Z which behaves numerically like a bielliptic surface. In the appendix to the paper [W. Decker et al.:…
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…
This paper details an algorithm for unfolding a class of convex polyhedra, where each polyhedron in the class consists of a convex cap over a rectangular base, with several restrictions: the cap's faces are quadrilaterals, with vertices…
We study arithmetic constraints arising from the three faces meeting along the space diagonal of a rectangular cuboid. Using a propagation mechanism along this diagonal, based on the appearance of a minimal odd prime in certain triangular…
The purpose of this paper is to study the reflections of a convex body. In particular, we are interested in orthogonal reflections of its sections that can be extended to reflections of the whole body. For this reason, we need to study the…
First, we give a formula for the foci of an ellipse, $E_0$, as a function of the coefficients of an equation of $E_0$(see Theorem <ref>T2</ref>). To prove Theorem <ref>T2</ref>, we use two interesting formulas proven in <cite>B</cite> and…
The bisection of trapezoids by transversal lines has many examples in Babylonian mathematics. In this article, we study a similar problem in Elamite mathematics, inscribed on a clay tablet held in the collection of the Louvre Museum and…
Let (P) denote the problem of existence of a point in the plane of a given triangle T, that is at rational distance from all the vertices of T. In this article, we provide a complete solution to (P) for all equilateral triangles.
Efficient methods to determine the relative position of two conics are of great interest for applications in robotics, computer animation, CAGD, computational physics, and other areas. We present a method to obtain the relative position of…
We consider the problem of maximizing the volume of hermitian ellipsoids inscribed in a given pseudoconvex domain in complex Euclidean space. We prove existence and uniqueness, and give a characterization of the maximizer.
A subset of a convex body $B$ containing the origin in a Euclidean space is {\it parkable in $B$} if it can be translated inside $B$ in such a manner that the translate the origin. We provide characterizations of ellipsoids and of centrally…
We study bifurcations of non-orientable area-preserving maps with quadratic homoclinic tangencies. We study the case when the maps are given on non-orientable two-dimensional surfaces. We consider one and two parameter general unfoldings…
Let $E_1,E_2\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be two homothetic solid ellipsoids, $n\geq 3$, with center at the origin $O$ of a system coordinates of $\mathbb{R}^n$, and $E_1\subset E_2$. Then there exists a $O$-symmetric ellipsoid $E_3$ such that…
In 1964 A. Bruckner observed that any bounded open set in the plane has an inscribed triangle, that is a triangle contained in the open set and with the vertices lying on the boundary. We prove that this triangle can be taken uniformly fat,…
