Triangulations are used in simplicial algorithms to nd the xed points of continuous functions or upper semi-continuous mappings; applications arise from economics and optimization. The performance of simplicial algorithms is very sensitive to the triangulation used. Using a facetal description, we modify Dang's D 1 triangulation to obtain a more eecient triangulation of the unit hypercube in R ...

This short manuscript summarizes the framework developed by Tozzi and Peters in the years 2015-2017. We claim that the Borsuk-Ulam Theorem (BUT), is not simply a metaphor, rather a real computational tool standing for a universal principle for physical and biological systems. Indeed, the BUT perspective allows a feature (e.g., a shape, a trajectory or an energy) located in the environment to be...

A truly international gathering EuroTEX conferences are quite different from the TEX Users Group conferences, in that many more participants from Russia and Central Europe participate, and this year was no exception. In all 103 TEX users from 18 different countries (4 from Belgium, 1 from Canada, 7 from the Czech Republic, 2 from France, 17 from Germany, 1 from Hungary, 2 from Lithuania, 18 fro...
