Minimal quasisections of circle bundles
Ivan Kiselev, Gaiane Panina, Timur Shamazov
Let be an oriented circle bundle over an oriented closed surface, and let denote its Euler number. A \textit{quasisection} is a smooth surface , p…
Counting normals to closed curves in
Gaiane Panina, Dirk Siersma
We prove the following results: (1) For every generic closed smooth curve in , {whose torsion has a constant sign}, there is a point with at least emanating norma…
On normals conjecture for convex polytopes in
Ivan Nasonov, Gaiane Panina
We prove that for each generic simple polytope in contains a point with at least emanating normals to the boundary. This result is a piecewise-linear co…
Lower bounds on the number of envy-free divisions
Duško Jojić, Gaiane Panina, Rade Živaljević
We analyze lower bounds for the number of envy-free divisions, in the classical Woodall-Stormquist setting and in a non-classical case, when envy-freeness is combined with the equi…
A new proof of Milnor-Wood inequality
Gaiane Panina, Timur Shamazov, Maksim Turevskii
The Milnor-Wood inequality states that if a (topological) oriented circle bundle over an orientable surface of genus has a smooth transverse foliation, then the Euler class of…
Each generic polytope in has a point with ten normals to the boundary
Ivan Nasonov, Gaiane Panina
It is conjectured since long that each smooth convex body has a point in its interior which belongs to at least normals from different points…
Quasisections of circle bundles and Euler class
Gaiane Panina, Timur Shamazov, Maksim Turevskii
Let be an oriented circle bundle over an oriented closed surface . A quasisection is a smooth surface (either closed or bordered) mapped by a…
Ky Fan theorem for sphere bundles
Gaiane Panina, Rade Živaljević
The classic Ky Fan theorem is a combinatorial equivalent of Borsuk-Ulam theorem. It is a generalization and extension of Tucker's lemma and, just like its predecessor, it pinpoints…
Minimal triangulations of circle bundles
Gaiane Panina, Maksim Turevskii
A triangulation of a circle bundle is a triangulation of the total space and the base such that the projection is a simplicial map. In the…
Colored Tverberg problem, extensions and new results
Duško Jojić, Gaiane Panina, Rade T. Živaljević
We prove a "multiple colored Tverberg theorem" and a "balanced colored Tverberg theorem", by applying different methods, tools and ideas. The proof of the first theorem uses multip…
