In this talk, we will present some previously unknown information on the life and work of prominent Croatian mathematician Stjepan Bohniček (Vinkovci, 1872 – Zagreb, 1956), corresponding member of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts and the first Croatian expert in the field of number theory. Bohniček studied reciprocity laws, Diophantine equations and quadratic forms. His results on...
A translation curve in a Thurston space is a curve such that for given unit vector at the origin, translation of this vector is tangent to the curve in every point of the curve. In most Thurston spaces translation curves coincide with geodesic lines. However, this does not hold for Thurston spaces equipped with twisted product. In these spaces translation curves seem more intuitive and simpler...
In 2001 Sir M. F. Atiyah formulated a conjecture $C1$ and later with P.Sutcliffe two stronger conjectures $C2$ and $C3$. These conjectures, inspired by physics (spin-statistics theorem of quantum mechanics), are geometrically defined for any configuration of $n$ points in the Euclidean three space. The conjecture $C1$ is proved for $n = 3$ in [1] and for $n=4$ in [2], and $C1-C3$ in [3]....
