We are interested in the naive problem whether we can move a solid object in a solid box or not. We restrict move to rotation. In the case we can, the centre and the ``direction'' of rotation may be restricted. Simplifying, we consider…

In previous work we showed that for a manifold $M$, whose universal cover has infinitely many boundary components, the set of essential ideal triangulations of $M$ is connected via 2-3, 3-2, 0-2, and 2-0 moves. Here we show that this set is…

Any two triangulations of a closed surface with the same number of vertices can be transformed into each other by a sequence of regular flips, provided the number of vertices exceeds a number N depending on the surface. Examples show that…

It is shown that with appropriate boundary conditions, a real function satisfying the differential equation $f'(x) = f(x+a)$ has all known properties of the sine function. A number of elementary derivations are presented including proofs…

We give an elementary proof of the development of Macdonald polynomials in terms of "modified complete" and elementary symmetric functions.

We prove that every real algebraic action on a smooth real algebraic variety has a prolongation with a "moving frame".

As is well known, the common elementary functions defined over the real numbers can be generalized to act not only over the complex number field but also over the skew (non-commuting) field of the quaternions. In this paper, we detail a…

It was recently shown that there exists an explicit bound for the number of Pachner moves needed to connect any two triangulation of any Haken 3-manifold which contains no fibred sub-manifolds as strongly simple pieces of its…

The aim of this work is to use Napoleon's Theorem in different regular polygons, and decide whether we can prove Napoleon's Theorem is only limited with triangles or it could be done in other regular polygons that can create regular…

Two important classes of three-dimensional elements in computational meshes are hexahedra and tetrahedra. While several efficient methods exist that convert a hexahedral element to a tetrahedral elements, the existing algorithm for…

We show that in any triangulated 3-manifold, every index n topologically minimal surface can be transformed to a surface which has local indices (as computed in each tetrahedron) that sum to at most n. This generalizes classical theorems of…

The acyclic system conjecture of Ardila and Ceballos can be interpreted as saying the following: "Every triangulation of the 3-skeleton of a product of two simplices can be extended to a triangulation of the whole product". We show a…

Here are versions of the proofs of two classic theorems of combinatorial topology. The first is the result that piecewise linearly homeomorphic simplicial complexes are related by stellar moves. This is used in the proof, modelled on that…

We present two algorithms for unfolding the surface of any polyhedron, all of whose faces are triangles, to a nonoverlapping, connected planar layout. The surface is cut only along polyhedron edges. The layout is connected, but it may have…

We study oriented connected closed polyhedral surfaces with non-degenerate triangular faces in three-dimensional Euclidean space, calling them polyhedra for short. A polyhedron is called flexible if its spatial shape can be changed…

In this paper we describe a procedure to simplify any given triangulation of the 3-sphere using Pachner moves. We obtain an explicit exponential-type bound on the number of Pachner moves needed for this process. This leads to a new…

This paper continues the study initiated in "The aithmetic of Triangles." We begin by examining a set of similar tetrahedra with parallel sides, together with a set of points in three-dimensional space. It turns out that the set…

We construct a converging geometric iterated function system on the moduli space of ordered triangles, for which the involved functions have geometric meanings and contain a non-contraction map under the natural metric.

As an extension of projective homology, stereohomology is proposed via an extension of Desargues theorem and the extended Desargues configuration. Geometric transformations such as reflection, translation, central symmetry, central…

In this paper we will do the following: (1) show how to geometrically define multiplication, using only basic plane geometry, independently of area and any notion of similar triangles; (2) prove all the properties of multiplication using…
