AbstractIn this paper, we find configurations of points in n-dimensional projective space (Pn) which simultaneously generalize both k-configurations and reduced 0-dimensional complete intersections. Recall that k-configurations in P2 are disjoint unions of distinct points on lines and in Pn are inductively disjoint unions of k-configurations on hyperplanes, subject to certain conditions. Furthermore, the Hilbert function of a k-configuration is determined from those of the smaller k-configurations. We call our generalized constructions kD-configurations, where D = {d1, … , dr} (a set of r posi

Abstract The Klein and Wiman configurations are highly symmetric configurations of lines in the projective plane arising from complex reflection groups. One noteworthy property of these configurations is that all the singularities of the configuration have multiplicity at least 3. In this paper we study the surface X obtained by blowing up $\mathbb{P}^{2}$ in the singular points of one of these line configurations. We study invariant curves on X in detail, with a particular emphasis on curves of negative self-intersection. We use the representation theory of the stabilizers of the singular poi

Abstract The equidistant set of a collection F of lines in 3-space is the set of those points whose distances to the lines in F are all equal. We present many examples and results related to the lines possibly contained in the equidistant set of F. In particular, we determine the possible numbers of lines in the equidistant set of a collection of n lines for every {n>0} . For example, if {n=3} , then the possible number of such lines is either 4 or 2 or 1 or 0. In a natural way, our results are connected with properties of special types of (ruled) surfaces.

Abstract:
In 1930, the mathematician Esther Klein observed that any five points in the plane in general position (i.e., no three points forming a line) contain four points forming a convex quadrilateral. This innocentsounding discovery led to major lines of research in discrete geometry. Klein's friends Paul Erdős and George Szekeres generalized this theorem, and also conjectured that 2k-2 + 1 points (again in general position) would be enough to force a convex k-gon to exist. The resolution of this conjecture became known as the "happy ending problem," because Klein and Szekeres ended up getting marrie

We investigate the local contribution of the braid monodromy factorization in the context of the links obtained by the closure of these braids. We consider plane curves which are arrangements of lines and conics as well as some algebraic surfaces, where some of the former occur as local configurations in degenerated and regenerated surfaces in the latter. In particular, we focus on degenerations which involve intersection points of multiplicity two and three. We demonstrate when the same links arise even when the local arrangements are different.

This chapter derives some basic properties of the plaid model. It is organized as follows. Section 2.2 deals with the symmetries of the plaid model. First, it deals with the unoriented model and then considers the oriented model. Section 2.3 proves the technical lemma that each unit integer segment contains exactly two intersection points. The work in this section reveals the nice geometric way that the slanting lines intersect each unit integer square. Section 2.4 establishes the following result: Within each block, there are exactly two lines of capacity k for each even k ɛ [0, ω‎]. Moreover, within the block, each line of capacity k has exactly k light points on it (when double points are appropriately counted). Section 2.5 establishes a subtle additional symmetry of the plaid model.

Abstract:
This chapter serves as an introduction to 3D representations of scenes or Structure From Motion (SfM) from straight line segments. Lines are frequently found in captures of man-made environments, and in nature are mixed with more organic shapes. The inclusion of straight lines in 3D representations provide structural information about the captured shapes and their limits, such as the intersection of planar structures. Line based SfM methods are not frequent in the literature due to the difficulty of detecting them reliably, their morphological changes under changes of perspective and the challenges inherent to finding correspondences of segments in images between the different views. Additionally, compared to points, lines add the dimensionalities carried by the line directions and lengths, which prevents the epipolar constraint to be valid along a straight line segment between two different views. This chapter introduces the geometrical relations which have to be exploited for SfM sketch or abstraction based on line segments, the optimization methods for its optimization, and how to compare the experimental results with Ground-Truth measurements.

Abstract:
The expansion of the Internet and the sudden popularity of Web 2.0 applications, such as blogs, YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook, raise important questions about the extent and consequences of homophilous sorting in online political discussions. In particular, there is growing concern that Internet users' ability to filter out alternative points of view will lead political discourse to become more polarized and fragmented along ideological lines. The decline of deliberative democracy and the breakdown of America's system of representative government, the story goes, will be the inevitable causalities of political discussions moving from in-person to online. Unfortunately, the empirical research in fields such as mass communication, political science, and sociology provides no hard and fast conclusions about the amount of online homophily in political discussions. This article details this conflicted body of research and points to some areas where future research may provide more insight into the intersection of online politics and homophilous sorting.

Abstract:
The Arab Spring left a deep imprint on Middle Eastern and North African societies, but also on social movement scholarship. In particular, three lines of inquiry provide vantage points for investigating protest in the region today: critical approaches that avoid the structuralist bias of early analyses of the Arab Spring and, instead, focus on the imaginative terrain of social protest; constructivist approaches that retrace how political subjectivation processes enabled innovative revolutionary alliances; and relational approaches that investigate the interactions between different players during the 2011 uprisings. This book is situated at the intersection of these strands of literature. It is an attempt to map contentious politics in post-revolutionary Egypt and show how different social arenas, street politics, and the politics of signification, interrelated, and informed the country’s transition.

Abstract:
Ethnographic fieldwork in the municipality of Jahazpur, a market town and sub-district headquarters in North India, reveals contrasting roles of religiosity and identity in environmental protection. Hilltop shrines, one Hindu and one Muslim, are surrounded by successfully sustained groves. Each shrine belongs to a distinct and demographically significant group with political clout. Vigilant devotees as much as fear of divine retribution effectively protect shrine environments from wood-hungry neighbors. The Nagdi River had offered both utility and beauty to the entire population, but its flow dwindled, choked on trash and sewage. Aware that an important part of shared environmental and cultural heritage was in dire peril, Jahazpur residents and local government made sporadic efforts to mobilize restoration, but it proved discouraging to sustain alignments across community and class. Recently, however, young shopkeepers collaborating across lines of difference have partially reversed the river's deterioration. Comparing discrepant ecological pasts and present of Jahazpur's hilltops and river shows diverse and shifting configurations at the emotional and volatile intersection of religion, politics and urban environments.

Full text
Abstract:
Spatial database systems and geographical information systems are currently only able to support geographical applications that deal with only crisp spatial objects, that is, objects whose extent, shape, and boundary are precisely determined. Examples are land parcels, school districts, and state territories. However, many new, emerging applications are interested in modeling and processing geographic data that are inherently characterized by spatial vagueness or spatial indeterminacy. Examples are air polluted areas, temperature zones, and lakes. These applications require novel concepts due to the lack of adequate approaches and systems. In this chapter, the authors show how soft computing techniques can provide a solution to this problem. They give an overview of two type systems or algebras that can be integrated into database systems and utilized for the modeling and handling of spatial vagueness. The first type system, called Vague Spatial Algebra (VASA), is based on well known, general, and exact models of crisp spatial data types and introduces vague points, vague lines, and vague regions. This enables an exact definition of the vague spatial data model since we can build it upon an already existing theory of spatial data types. The second type system, called Fuzzy Spatial Algebra (FUSA), leverages fuzzy set theory and fuzzy topology and introduces novel fuzzy spatial data types for fuzzy points, fuzzy lines, and fuzzy regions. This enables an even more fine-grained modeling of spatial objects that do not have sharp boundaries and interiors or whose boundaries and interiors cannot be precisely determined. This chapter provides a formal definition of the structure and semantics of both type systems. Further, the authors introduce spatial set operations for both algebras and obtain vague and fuzzy versions of geometric intersection, union, and difference. Finally, they describe how these data types can be embedded into extensible databases and show some example queries.

Full text
Abstract:
Diagrammatic reasoning is reasoning whose task is partially taken over by operations on diagrams. It consists of two kinds of activities: (i) physical operations, such as drawing and erasing lines, curves, figures, patterns, symbols, through which diagrams come to encode new information (or discard old information), and (ii) extractions of information diagrams, such as interpreting Venn diagrams, statistical graphs, and geographical maps. Given particular tasks of reasoning, different types of diagrams show different degrees of suitedness. For example, Euler diagrams are superior in handling certain problems concerning inclusion and membership among classes and individuals, but they cannot be generally applied to such problems without special provisos. Diagrams make many proofs in geometry shorter and more intuitive, while they take certain precautions of the reasoner’s to be used validly. Tables with particular configurations are better suited than other tables to reason about the train schedule of a station. Different types of geographical maps support different tasks of reasoning about a single mountain area. Mathematicians experience that coming up with the “right” sorts of diagrams is more than half-way to the solution of most complicated problems. Perhaps many of these phenomena are explained with reference to aspect (ii) of diagrammatic reasoning because some types of diagrams lets a reasoner retrieve a kind of information that others do not. or lets the reasoner retrieve it more “easily” than others. In fact, this is the approach that psychologists have traditionally taken. In this chapter, we take a different path and focus on aspect (i) of diagrammatic reasoning. Namely, we look closely at the process in which a reasoner applies operations to diagrams and in which diagrams come to encode new information through these operations. It seems that this process is different in some crucial points from one type of diagrams to another, and that these differences partially explain why some types of diagrams are better suited than others to particular tasks of reasoning.
