On area and side lengths of triangles in normed planes

Gennadiy Averkov, Horst Martini (2009)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Let d be a d-dimensional normed space with norm ||·|| and let B be the unit ball in d . Let us fix a Lebesgue measure V B in d with V B ( B ) = 1 . This measure will play the role of the volume in d . We consider an arbitrary simplex T in d with prescribed edge lengths. For the case d = 2, sharp upper and lower bounds of V B ( T ) are determined. For d ≥ 3 it is noticed that the tight lower bound of V B ( T ) is zero.

On deformations of spherical isometric foldings

Ana M. Breda, Altino F. Santos (2010)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

The behavior of special classes of isometric foldings of the Riemannian sphere S 2 under the action of angular conformal deformations is considered. It is shown that within these classes any isometric folding is continuously deformable into the standard spherical isometric folding f s defined by f s ( x , y , z ) = ( x , y , | z | ) .

On hyperbolic virtual polytopes and hyperbolic fans

Gaiane Panina (2006)

Open Mathematics

Hyperbolic virtual polytopes arose originally as polytopal versions of counterexamples to the following A.D.Alexandrov’s uniqueness conjecture: Let K ⊂ ℝ3 be a smooth convex body. If for a constant C, at every point of ∂K, we have R 1 ≤ C ≤ R 2 then K is a ball. (R 1 and R 2 stand for the principal curvature radii of ∂K.) This paper gives a new (in comparison with the previous construction by Y.Martinez-Maure and by G.Panina) series of counterexamples to the conjecture. In particular, a hyperbolic...

On light subgraphs in plane graphs of minimum degree five

Stanislav Jendrol', Tomáš Madaras (1996)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

A subgraph of a plane graph is light if the sum of the degrees of the vertices of the subgraph in the graph is small. It is well known that a plane graph of minimum degree five contains light edges and light triangles. In this paper we show that every plane graph of minimum degree five contains also light stars K 1 , 3 and K 1 , 4 and a light 4-path P₄. The results obtained for K 1 , 3 and P₄ are best possible.
