We survey some results on real rational surfaces focused on their topology and their birational geometry.
When the Euclidean algorithm produces a symmetric sequence of quotients, we give explicit formulas for the remainders that allow the analysis of two families of quadratic forms in the remainders.
A rational perfect cuboid is a rectangular parallelepiped whose edges and face diagonals are given by rational numbers and whose space diagonal is equal to unity. It is described by a system of four quadratic equations with respect to six…
A finite number of rational functions are compatible if they satisfy the compatibility conditions of a first-order linear functional system involving differential, shift and q-shift operators. We present a theorem that describes the…
We study rationality problems for smooth complete intersections of two quadrics. We focus on the three-dimensional case, with a view toward understanding the invariants governing the rationality of a geometrically rational threefold over a…
We determine exactly which positive rational numbers occur as squared edge lengths of regular $d$-simplices with vertices in $\mathbb{Q}^n$. The answer exhibits a sharp stabilization phenomenon: once $n-d\geq 3$, every positive rational…
The spread between two lines in rational trigonometry replaces the concept of angle, allowing the complete specification of many geometrical and dynamical situations which have traditionally been viewed approximately. This paper…
For a PI-algebra R over a field of characteristic 0 let T(R) be the T-ideal of the polynomial identities of R and let c(R,t) be the codimension series of R (i.e., the generating function of the codimension sequence of R). Let A, B and R be…
A rational function is the ratio of two complex polynomials in one variable without common roots. Its degree is the maximum of the degrees of the numerator and the denominator. Rational functions belong to the same class if one turns into…
We study the sums of squares on cylinders of the form $X \times \mathbb{A}_K$ for a (weakly) factorial curve $C$. We prove the equality of the Pythagoras numbers of the ring of regular functions on the cylinder with that of the field of…
We introduce a linear algebraic object called a bidiagonal triple. A bidiagonal triple consists of three diagonalizable linear transformations on a finite-dimensional vector space, each of which acts in a bidiagonal fashion on the…
Hecke symmetries generalize the usual tensor symmetry of vector spaces $v\otimes w\arrow w\otimes v$ as well as the symmetry of vector superspaces. To a Hecke symmetry $R$ there associates a quadratic algebra which can be interpreted as the…
A $d$-dimensional simplex in Euclidean space is called orthocentric if all of its altitudes intersect at a single point, referred to as the orthocenter. We explicitly compute the internal and external angles at all faces of an orthocentric…
We solve a very classical problem motivated by considerations in quantum gravity: providing a description of the geometry of a Euclidean tetrahedron from the initial data of the areas of the faces and the areas of the medial parallelograms…
A product of cochains in a polyhedral complex is constructed. The multiplication algorithm depends on the choice of a parameter. The parameter is a linear functional on the ambient space. Cocycles form a subring of the ring of cochains,…
This will is an expository description of quadratic rational maps. Sections 2 through 6 are concerned with the geometry and topology of such maps. Sections 7--10 survey of some topics from the dynamics of quadratic rational maps. There are…
We investigate connections between pairs of (pseudo-)Riemannian metrics whose sum is a (tensor) product of a covector field with itself. A bijective mapping between the classes of Euclidean and Lorentzian metrics is constructed as a special…
Closed geodesic lines on an ellipsoid in d-dimensional Euclidean space are considered. Explicit algebro-geometric condition for closedness of such a geodesic is given. The obtained condition is discussed in light of theta-functions theory…
Elementary Algebraic Geometry can be described as study of zeros of polynomials with integer degrees, this idea can be naturally carried over to `polynomials' with rational degree. This paper explores affine varieties, tangent space and…
The geometry of closed surfaces equipped with a Euclidean metric with finitely many conical points of arbitrary angle is studied. The main result is that the set of closed geodesics is dense in the space of geodesics.
