Geometry of Deformed Cellular Spaces

Abstract

We present an adaptive geometry in which the yardstick co-deforms with space itself, formulated on cellular spaces where length is a count: distances are shortest cell-crossing counts. No cell shape, angles, or embedding are assumed; the framework is deliberately micro-agnostic. Curvature and deformation are inferred operationally by comparing a measured radius to a radius reconstructed from boundary/area/volume counts; the linear dimension of a cell serves as the single universal unit of length, yielding unified small-ball/small-sphere estimators in 2D/3D/4D. We prove that the count metric on locally finite complexes is geodesic, show flatness on uniform lattices, and establish stability of distances and curvature estimators under small local perturbations. As a bridge to the smooth setting, a line-density field induces a conformal metric $g = e^{2u} g_0$ that reproduces the same operational quantities. We outline a Ricci-like construction from directional slices and give a spherically symmetric illustrative example consistent with Schwarzschild-type spatial behavior. Overall, the model provides an intrinsic, micro-agnostic calculus linking discrete measurements to continuum notions with guarantees, including Gromov--Hausdorff control under mild regularity assumptions.

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.
