Interpolating points with minimum curvature constraint
I have $n$ points $p_i$ strictly interior to a rectangle $R$,
and I would like to connect them with a curve $C$ whose curvature is as low as possible.
Let $\kappa_\max(C)$ be the sharpest (largest ...

Inside-out polygonal dissections
A dissection of a polygon $P$
is a partition of $P$ into a finite number of pieces, which can then be rearranged
(via planar translations and rotations) and joined (without overlap) to form a new ...

Does this plane geometry theorem have a name (well-known)?
Consider three circles $(O_1)$, $(O_2)$, $(O_3)$. Denote the homothetic center of $\{$$(O_1)$, $(O_2)$$\}$ by $A$, the homothetic center of $\{$$(O_2)$, $(O_3)$$\}$ by $B$. Let $C$, $D$ be two points ...

Is this a new result about hexagon?
Let a hexagon $AB'CA'BC'$ let $AB' \cap A'B=C''$, $BC' \cap B'C = A''$, $CA' \cap C'A = B''$ then three conditions as follows equivalent:
Three lines $AA', BB', CC'$ are concurrent (let the point of ...

Two triangles have the same centroid theorem
Let $\triangle ABC$ and $\triangle A'B'C'$ be two triangles. The line through $A$ and perpendicular to $AA'$ meets the line through $B'$ and perpendicular to $BB'$ at $A_b$; The line through $A$ and ...

A generalization of the Archimedean circle
I proposed a generalization of the Archimedean circle : In this figure $M$ is the midpoint of $AB$, $DE$; $(G)$, $(H)$, $(M)$ are the semicircles. Then two yellow circles are congruent.
Question: Is ...
