A smaller cover for closed unit curves
Forty years ago Schaer and Wetzel showed that a $\frac{1}{\pi}\times\frac {1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\pi^{2}-4}$ rectangle, whose area is about $0.122\,74,$ is the smallest rectangle that is a cover for the family of all closed unit arcs. More recently F\"{u}redi and Wetzel showed that one corner of this rectangle can be clipped to form a pentagonal cover having area $0.11224$ for this family of curves. He...
متن کاملA Family of Number Fields with Unit Rank at Least 4 That Has Euclidean Ideals
We will prove that if the unit rank of a number field with cyclic class group is large enough and if the Galois group of its Hilbert class field over Q is abelian, then every generator of its class group is a Euclidean ideal class. We use this to prove the existence of a non-principal Euclidean ideal class that is not norm-Euclidean by showing that Q( √ 5, √ 21, √ 22) has such an ideal class.
متن کاملSource Unfoldings of Convex Polyhedra via Certain Closed Curves
We extend the notion of a source unfolding of a convex polyhedron P to be based on a closed polygonal curve Q in a particular class rather than based on a point. The class requires that Q “lives on a cone” to both sides; it includes simple, closed quasigeodesics. Cutting a particular subset of the cut locus of Q (in P) leads to a non-overlapping unfolding of the polyhedron. This gives a new gen...
متن کاملConvex drawings of intersecting families of simple closed curves
A FISC or family of intersecting simple closed curves is a collection of simple closed curves in the plane with the properties that there is some open region common to the interiors of all the curves, and that every two curves intersect in nitely many points. Let F be a FISC. Intersections of the curves represent the vertices of a plane graph, G(F), whose edges are the curve arcs between vertic...
متن کاملSome Geometric Properties of Closed Space Curves and Convex Bodies
The main results of the paper are as follows. 1. On each smooth closed oriented curve in Rn, there exist two points the oriented tangents at which form an angle greater than π/2 + sin−1 1 n−1 . 2. If n is odd, then an (n+1)-gon with equal sides and lying in a hyperplane can be inscribed in each smooth closed Jordan curve in Rn. In particular, a rhombus can be inscribed in each closed curve in R...
