Cambrian fans

Nathan Reading, David E. Speyer (2009)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

For a finite Coxeter group W and a Coxeter element c of W ; the c -Cambrian fan is a coarsening of the fan defined by the reflecting hyperplanes of W . Its maximal cones are naturally indexed by the c -sortable elements of W . The main result of this paper is that the known bijection cl c between c -sortable elements and c -clusters induces a combinatorial isomorphism of fans. In particular, the c -Cambrian fan is combinatorially isomorphic to the normal fan of the generalized associahedron for W . The rays...

Cauchy problems for discrete affine minimal surfaces

Marcos Craizer, Thomas Lewiner, Ralph Teixeira (2012)

Archivum Mathematicum

In this paper we discuss planar quadrilateral (PQ) nets as discrete models for convex affine surfaces. As a main result, we prove a necessary and sufficient condition for a PQ net to admit a Lelieuvre co-normal vector field. Particular attention is given to the class of surfaces with discrete harmonic co-normals, which we call discrete affine minimal surfaces, and the subclass of surfaces with co-planar discrete harmonic co-normals, which we call discrete improper affine spheres. Within this classes,...

Cheeger inequalities for unbounded graph Laplacians

Frank Bauer, Matthias Keller, Radosław K. Wojciechowski (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We use the concept of intrinsic metrics to give a new definition for an isoperimetric constant of a graph. We use this novel isoperimetric constant to prove a Cheeger-type estimate for the bottom of the spectrum which is nontrivial even if the vertex degrees are unbounded.

Circumradius versus side lengths of triangles in linear normed spaces

Gennadiy Averkov (2007)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Given a planar convex body B centered at the origin, we denote by ℳ ²(B) the Minkowski plane (i.e., two-dimensional linear normed space) with the unit ball B. For a triangle T in ℳ ²(B) we denote by R B ( T ) the least possible radius of a Minkowskian ball enclosing T. We remark that in the terminology of location science R B ( T ) is the optimum of the minimax location problem with distance induced by B and vertices of T as existing facilities (see, for instance, [HM03] and the references therein). Using methods...
