Abstract

After the paper of Molodtsov ( D. Molodtsov, Soft set theory first results. Computers and Mathematics with Applications, 37(4-5) (1999), 19-31), soft set theory grew at a breakneck pace. Several authors have introduced various operations, relations, results, as well as other aspects in soft set theory and hybrid structures incorrectly, despite their widespread use in mathematics and allied areas. In his paper (D. A. Molodtsov, Equivalence and correct operations for soft sets. International Robotics and Automation Journal, 4(1) (2018), 18-21), Molodtsov, the father of soft set theory, pointed out the wrong results and notions. Molodtsov (D. A. Molodtsov, Structure of soft sets. Nechetkie Sistemy i Myagkie, 12(1) (2017), 5-18) also stated that the concept of soft set had not been fully understood and used everywhere. As a result, it seemed reasonable to revisit the quirks of those conceptions and provide a formal account of the notion of soft set equivalency. Molodtsov already explored the correct operations on soft sets. We use some notions and results of Molodtsov (Molodtsov D.A. (2017) Structure of soft sets. Nechetkie Sistemy i Myagkie, 12(1) (2017), 5-18) to create matrix representations as well as certain associated operations of soft sets, and to quantify the similarity between two soft sets.

Average Chord Lengths in a Triangle

Let $P$ be a point inside a triangle $T$. We consider the average length of the chords of $T$ through $P$, where the direction of the chord is chosen uniformly. An elementary formula is obtained in terms of the distances from $P$ to the sides and vertices of the triangle. Several classical triangle centers give especially simple specializations. For example, if $I$ is the incenter, then \[ M_T(I)=\frac{2r}{\pi} \log\left(\cot\frac A4\cot\frac B4\cot\frac C4\right). \] Our main result is the sharp inequality \[ M_T(P)\le \frac{p}{\pi\sqrt3}\log(2+\sqrt3), \] valid simultaneously for every triangle of perimeter $p$ and every interior point $P$. Thus, among all such pairs $(T,P)$, the largest possible average chord length occurs only when $T$ is equilateral and $P$ is its center. The proof is an elementary symmetrization argument. We close with brief remarks relating the problem to the radial center of a convex body, the electrostatic potential center of a triangle, and dual quermassintegrals.

A Proof of Liu's Conjecture on the Fundamental Triangle Inequality

Let $a,b,c$ be the side lengths of a triangle, and let $R$ and $r$ denote its circumradius and inradius, respectively. We prove a conjecture of Liu stating that \[\sum_{\mathrm{cyc}} \left(\frac{a(b+c-a)}{bc}\right)^k \geq 2+\left(\frac{2r}{R}\right)^k,~~k>1, \] with the reverse inequality for $0<k<1$. The proof reduces the problem to three positive variables with fixed sum and product. We also determine the equality cases.
