چکیده

If Q1 = Q(A2,A3), Q2 = Q(A1,A3) and Q3 = Q(A1,A2) are the quadrances of a triangle A1A2A3, then Pythagoras’ theorem and its converse can together be stated as: A1A3 is perpendicular to A2A3 precisely when Q1 + Q2 = Q3. Figure 1 shows an example where Q1 = 5, Q2 = 20 and Q3 = 25. As indicated for the large square, these areas may also be calculated by subdivision and (translational) rearrangement, followed by counting cells. There is a sister theorem—the Triple quad formula—that Euclid did not know, but which is fundamental for rational trigonometry, introduced in [2]: A1A3 is parallel to A2A3 precisely when

Incenter Circles , Chromogeometry , and the Omega Triangle

Chromogeometry brings together planar Euclidean geometry, here called blue geometry, and two relativistic geometries, called red and green. We show that if a triangle has four blue Incenters and four red Incenters, then these eight points lie on a green circle, whose center is the green Orthocenter of the triangle, and similarly for the other colours. Tangents to the incenter circles yield inte...

Discrete Conics

In this paper, we introduce discrete conics, polygonal analogues of conics. We show that discrete conics satisfy a number of nice properties analogous to those of conics, and arise naturally from several constructions, including the discrete negative pedal construction and an action of a group acting on a focus-sharing pencil of conics.

Calculation of the relativistic bulk tensor and shear tensor of relativistic accretion flows in the Kerr metric.

In this paper, we calculate the relativistic bulk tensor and shear tensor of the relativistic accretion ows in the Kerr metric, overall and without any approximation. We obtain the relations of all components of the relativistic bulk and shear tensor in terms of components of four-velocity and its derivatives, Christoffel symbols and metric components in the BLF. Then, these components are deri...

Plane Conics in Algebraic Geometry

We first examine points and lines within projective spaces. Then we classify affine conics based on the classification of projective conics. Based on the parametrization of conics, we also prove two easy cases of Bézout’s Theorem. In the end we turn to the discussion of the space of conics and the notion of pencils of conics.

Variational Calculations for the Relativistic Interacting Fermion System at Finite Temperature: Application to Liquid 3He

In this paper, at first we have formulated the lowest order constrained variational method for the relativistic case of an interacting fermion system at finite temperature. Then we have used this formalism to calculate some thermodynamic properties of liquid in the relativistic regime. The results show that the difference between total energies of relativistic and non-relativistic cases of liqu...
