This paper studies random lozenge tilings of general non-convex polygonal regions. We show that the pairwise interaction of the non-convexities leads asymptotically to new kernels and thus to new statistics for the tiling fluctuations. The…

Every polyhedron can be decomposed into a Minkowski sum (or vector sum) of a bounded polyhedron and a polyhedral cone. This paper establishes similar statements for some classes of discrete sets in discrete convex analysis, such as…

A Hamilton cycle in a directed graph $G$ is a cycle that passes through every vertex of $G$. A Hamiltonian decomposition of $G$ is a partition of its edge set into disjoint Hamilton cycles. In the late $60$s Kelly conjectured that every…

We show how to determine if a given simple rectilinear polygon can be tiled with rectangles, each having an integer side.

We address the following problem: Given a simple polygon $P$ with $n$ vertices and two points $s$ and $t$ inside it, find a minimum link path between them such that a given target point $q$ is visible from at least one point on the path.…

Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in the plane. In this paper we study a new variant of the circular separability problem in which a point set $P$ is preprocessed so that one can quickly answer queries of the following form: Given a geometric…

Let $\mathcal{D}$ be a set of $n$ pairwise disjoint unit disks in the plane. We describe how to build a data structure for $\mathcal{D}$ so that for any point set $P$ containing exactly one point from each disk, we can quickly find the…

We establish a hook length bias between self-conjugate partitions and partitions of distinct odd parts, demonstrating that there are more hooks of fixed length $t \geq 2$ among self-conjugate partitions of $n$ than among partitions of…

We introduce self-dual manifolds and show that they can be used to encode mirror symmetry for affine-K\"{a}hler manifolds and for elliptic curves. Their geometric properties, especially the link with special lagrangian fibrations and the…

The Brattelli diagram associated with a given bicolored Dynkin-Coxeter graph of type $A_n$ determines planar fractal sets obtained by infinite dissections of a given triangle. All triangles appearing in the dissection process have angles…

Given a convex polygon of $n$ sides, one can draw $n$ disks (called side disks) where each disk has a different side of the polygon as diameter and the midpoint of the side as its center. The intersection graph of such disks is the…

Assembling parts into an object is a combinatorial problem that arises in a variety of contexts in the real world and involves numerous applications in science and engineering. Previous related work tackles limited cases with identical unit…

We present an algorithmic framework for computing anti-chains of maximum size in geometric posets. Specifically, posets in which the entities are geometric objects, where comparability of two entities is implicitly defined but can be…

Let $\mathcal{T}$ be a rooted and weighted tree, where the weight of any node is equal to the sum of the weights of its children. The popular Treemap algorithm visualizes such a tree as a hierarchical partition of a square into rectangles,…

While the contents of Euclid's Elements are well-known these days, some characters of the original text have been overlooked due to interpretation by modern mathematical languages. The lens of modern mathematics once anachronistically…

We study the geometry of billiard orbits on rectangular billiards. A truncated billiard orbit induces a partition of the rectangle into polygons. We prove that thirteen is a sharp upper bound for the number of different areas of these…

We consider the problem of covering the boundary of a simple polygon on n vertices using the minimum number of geodesic unit disks. We present an O(n \log^2 n+k) time 2-approximation algorithm for finding the centers of the disks, with k…

Motivated by the hinge structure present in protein chains and other molecular conformations, we study the singularities of certain maps associated to body-and-hinge and panel-and-hinge chains. These are sequentially articulated systems…

A self-affine tiling of a compact set G of positive Lebesgue measure is its partition to parallel shifts of a compact set which is affinely similar to G. We find all polyhedral sets (unions of finitely many convex polyhedra) that admit…

A single merger scenario for making galaxies such as NGC 4550 possessing equal coplanar counter-rotating stellar disks is investigated by collisionless N-body technique. The scenario is successful in producing an axisymmetric disk made of…
