The classical four-vertex theorem states that a simple closed convex C2 curve in the Euclidean plane has at least four vertices (points of extreme curvature). This theorem has many generalizations with regard to both the curve and the topological space and for a history of the subject, we refer to [4] and [1]. The particular generalization of concern, credited to H. Mohrmann, is the following n-vertex theorem.Let a simple closed C3 curve on a closed convex surface be intersected by a suitable plane in n points. Then the curve has at least n inflections (vertices).The closed convex surface in the preceding is defined as having at most two points in common with any straight line. Presently, we extend this result to curves on more general convex surfaces in a real projective three-space P3.

Einstein’S General Relativity

For two centuries Kant's first Critique has nourished various turns against transcendent metaphysics and realism. Kant was scandalized by reason's impotence in confronting infinity (or finitude) as seen in the divisibility of particles and in spatial extension and time. Therefore, he had to regard the latter as subjective and reality as imponderable. In what follows, I review various efforts to rationalize Kant's antinomies-efforts that could only flounder before the rise of Einstein's general relativity and Hawking's blackhole cosmology. Both have undercut the entire Kantian tradition by spawning highly probable theories for suppressing infinities and actually resolving these perplexities on a purely physical basis by positing curvatures of space and even of time that make them reëntrant to themselves. Heavily documented from primary sources in physics, this paper displays time’s curvature as its slowing down near very massive bodies and even freezing in a black hole from which it can reëmerge on the far side, where a new universe can open up. I argue that space curves into a double Möbius strip until it loses one dimension in exchange for another in the twin universe. It shows how 10-dimensional GUTs and the triple Universe, time/charge/parity conservation, and strange and bottom particle families and antiparticle universes, all fit together.

The Cost

Hardware double precision is often insufficient to solve large scientific problems accurately. Computing in higher precision defined by software causes significant computational overhead. The application of parallel algorithms compensates for this overhead. Newton's method to develop power series expansions of algebraic space curves is the use case for this application.
