We define a distance function on the bordered punctured disk $0<|z|\le 1/e$ in the complex plane, which is comparable with the hyperbolic distance of the punctured unit disk $0<|z|<1.$ As an application, we will construct a distance…
We develop tools to study the averaged Fourier uniformity conjecture and extend its known range of validity to intervals of length at least $\exp(C (\log X)^{1/2} (\log \log X)^{1/2})$.
The work develops further the theory of the following inversion problem, which plays the central role in the rapidly developing area of thermoacoustic tomography and has intimate connections with PDEs and integral geometry: {\it Reconstruct…
We establish an integral-geometric formula for minimal two-spheres inside homogeneous three-spheres, and use it to provide a characterisation of each homogeneous metric on the three-dimensional real projective space as the unique metric…
The intermediate dimensions are a family of dimensions introduced in 2019 by Falconer, Fraser, and Kempton [arXiv:1811.06493] to interpolate between the Hausdorff dimension and the box dimension. To date, there are limited examples of…
We prove that no ball admits a non-harmonic orthogonal basis of exponentials. We use a combinatorial result, originally studied by Erd\H os, which says that the number of distances determined by $n$ points in ${\Bbb R}^d$ is at least $C_d…
We provide a simple topological derivation of a formula for the Reidemeister and the analityc torsion of spheres.
Consider a set P of N random points on the unit sphere of dimension $d-1$, and the symmetrized set S = P union (-P). The halving polyhedron of S is defined as the convex hull of the set of centroids of N distinct points in S. We prove that…
We improve the best known upper bound on the number of edges in a unit-distance graph on $n$ vertices for each $n\in\{16,\ldots,30\}$. When $n\leq 21$, our bounds match the best known lower bounds, and we fully enumerate the densest…
We give an example of an eversion of the 2-sphere in the Euclidean 3-space, inspired by Morse theory, with a unique quadruple point. No homotopical tool is used.
An extension may be proposed to the intensity interferometer of Hanbury Brown and Twiss to provide the Fourier phase measurement by the use of third-order intensity correlations. It is well known that interferometric reconstruction of…
The measurement of distance between two objects is generalized to the case where the objects are no longer points but are one-dimensional. Additional concepts such as non-extensibility, curvature constraints, and non-crossing become central…
We present a numerical method for solving Weyl's embedding problem which consists of finding a global isometric embedding of a positively curved and positive-definite spherical 2-metric into the Euclidean three space. The method is based on…
The Fr\'echet distance is a computational mainstay for comparing polygonal curves. The Fr\'echet distance under translation, which is a translation invariant version, considers the similarity of two curves independent of their location in…
A unit spherical Euclidean distance matrix (EDM) D is a matrix whose entries can be realized as the interpoint (squared) Euclidean distances of n points on a unit sphere. In this paper, given such a D and 1 \leq k < l \leq n, we present a…
In this paper we compute the spherical Fourier expansions coefficients for the restriction of the generalised Wendland functions from $d-$dimensional Euclidean space to the (d-1)-dimensional unit sphere. The development required to derive…
In many robotics applications, it is necessary to compute not only the distance between the robot and the environment, but also its derivative - for example, when using control barrier functions. However, since the traditional Euclidean…
This paper investigates several distinct attempts to generalize in higher dimension the standard 2-dimensional phyllotaxy set construction. We first recall known contructions for these sets on $2D$ manifolds of constant curvature (the…
In this paper, we consider the problem of computing the integral of a function on the unit sphere, in any dimension, using Monte Carlo methods. Although the methods we present are general, our guiding thread is the sliced Wasserstein…
We show that the volume of any Riemannian metric on a three sphere is bounded below by the length of the shortest closed curve that links its antipodal image. In particular, the volume is bounded below by the minimum of the length of the…
