48 results for four-vertex theorem

The study proves a discrete version of Segre's theorem for polygonal curves.

problem Proving a discrete analog of a four-vertex theorem for spherical curves.
method Using the concept of discrete tangent indicatrix of a polygon.
result A polygon with at least four vertices and a non-self-intersecting discrete tangent indicatrix has at least four flattenings.

The Four Vertex Theorem, one of the earliest results in global differential geometry, says that a simple closed curve in the plane, other than a circle, must have at least four "vertices", that is, at least four points where the curvature has a local maximum or local minimum. In 1909 Syamadas Mukhopadhyaya proved this …

By Hartman--Nirenberg's theorem, any complete flat hypersurface in Euclidean space must be a cylinder over a plane curve. However, if we admit some singularities, there are many non-trivial examples. Flat fronts are flat hypersurfaces with admissible singularities. Murata--Umehara gave a representation formula for comp…

We show that the torsion of any simple closed curve ΓΓ in Euclidean 3-space changes sign at least 44 times provided that it is star-shaped and locally convex with respect to a point oo in the interior of its convex hull. The latter condition means that through each point pp of ΓΓ there passes a plane HH, not cont…

A quadratic point on a surface in RP3RP^3 is a point at which the surface can be approximated by a quadric abnormally well (up to order 3). We conjecture that the least number of quadratic points on a generic compact non-degenerate hyperbolic surface is 8; the relation between this and the classic Carathéodory conjectur…

The classical Sturm-Hurwitz-Kellogg theorem asserts that a function, orthogonal to an n-dimensional Chebyshev system on a circle, has at least n+1 sign changes. We prove the converse: given an n-dimensional Chebyshev system on a circle and a function with at least n+1 sign changes, there exists an orientation preservin…

Cycloids, hipocycloids and epicycloids have an often forgotten common property: they are homothetic to their evolutes. But what if use convex symmetric polygons as unit balls, can we define evolutes and cycloids which are genuinely discrete? Indeed, we can! We define discrete cycloids as eigenvectors of a discrete doub…

The theory of classical types of curves in normed planes is not strongly developed. In particular, the knowledge on existing concepts of curvatures of planar curves is widespread and not systematized in the literature. Giving a comprehensive overview on geometric properties of and relations between all introduced curva…

For a real valued periodic smooth function u on R, n0n\ge 0, one defines the osculating polynomial φsφ_s (of order 2n+1) at a point sRs\in R to be the unique trigonometric polynomial of degree n, whose value and first 2n derivatives at s coincide with those of u at s. We will say that a point s is a clean maximal flex …

It is classically known that complete flat surfaces in Euclidean 3-space are cylinders over space curves. This implies that the study of global behaviour of flat surfaces requires the study of singular points as well. If a flat surface ff admits singularities but its Gauss map νν can be smoothly extended across the s…

We obtain an upper bound for the volume of the convex hull of a simple closed Frenet curve with exactly four vertices, i.e., four points of vanishing torsion, and lying on the boundary of its convex hull. Moreover, we show that the upper bound is attained when the curve intersects every plane in at most four points, a …

The complex of curves C(Sg)\mathcal{C}(S_g) of a closed orientable surface of genus g2g \geq 2 is the simplicial complex having its vertices, C0(Sg)\mathcal{C}^0(S_g), are isotopy classes of essential curves in SgS_g. Two vertices co-bound an edge of the 11-skeleton, C1(Sg)\mathcal{C}^1(S_g), if there are disjoint representative…

We consider the task of automated theorem proving, a key AI task. Deep learning has shown promise for training theorem provers, but there are limited human-written theorems and proofs available for supervised learning. To address this limitation, we propose to learn a neural generator that automatically synthesizes the…

method Extending the surface-graph approach to noncommutative settings, the paper analyzes the topological properties of graphs embedded on surfaces of different genera.
result Theorems associated with graphs on the sphere hold over any division ring, while those on surfaces of positive genus typically hold only if the ground ring is a field.
