Existence of a honeycomb composed by nearly-hyperspherical $d$-dimensional cells having the same shape and size

Let $\mathcal{H}$ the class of all honeycombs composed by $d$-dimensional cells $C$ having all the same shape and size in a $d$-dimensional space $\mathcal{S}$. Let $s(C)$ and $\ell(C)$ be ...

Distance properties of the permutations of a set of points in a Euclidean space

We are given a set of $n$ distinct points $S=\{\mathbf{x}_1, \mathbf{x}_2, \ldots, \mathbf{x}_n\}$ in a Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$, where the distance between two points $\mathbf{x}_i,\mathbf{x}_j\...

Maximum number of regions in a disk partitioned by pairs of parallel chords

We are given a disk $D$ in $\mathbb{R}^2$. Let $C$ be its boundary (i.e., the circle bounding $D$ on its plane). Let $P(n,d)$ be a set of $n$ pairs of chords of $C$ such that for each $\{c,c'\}\in P(n,...

Conjecture on the increasing efficiency of the shortest minimum-link polygonal chains covering any grids of the form $\{0,1,2\}^k$ as $k$ grows

From the well-known Nine dots problem, we know that we need a polygonal chain with at least $4$ edges to connect the $9$ points of the planar grid $G_{3,2}:=\{\{0, 1, 2\} \times \{0, 1, 2\}\} \subset \...
