The Minkowski sausage or Minkowski curve is a fractal first proposed by and named for Hermann Minkowski as well as its casual resemblance to a sausage or sausage links. The initiator is a line segment and the generator is a broken line of eight parts one fourth the length. The Sausage has a Hausdorff dimension of . It is therefore often chosen when studying the physical properties of non-integer fractal objects. It is strictly self-similar. It never intersects itself. It is continuous everywhere, but differentiable nowhere. It is not rectifiable. It has a Lebesgue measure of 0. The type 1 curve has a dimension of ln 5/ln 3 ≈ 1.46. Multiple Minkowski Sausages may be arranged in a four sided polygon or square to create a quadratic Koch island or Minkowski island/[snow]flake: (Wikipedia).

We show that the spectrum of fundamental particles of matter and their symmetries can be encoded in a finite quantum geometry equipped with a supplementary structure connected with the quark-lepton symmetry. The occurrence of the exceptional quantum geometry for the description of the stan

A Strange But Elegant Approach to a Surprisingly Hard Problem (GJK Algorithm)
In 1988, three engineers came together and developed one of the most clever solutions to the problem of detecting when two complex objects collide. Their solution, the Gilbert Johnson Keerthi (GJK) algorithm, named after the authors, made an incredible impact in the fields of robotics, con

Franz Schuster: Blaschke–Santaló Inequalities for Minkowski and Asplund Endomorphisms
The Blaschke–Santaló inequality is one of the best known and most powerful affine isoperimetric inequalities in convex geometric analysis. In particular, it is significantly stronger than the classical Euclidean Urysohn inequality. In this talk, we present new isoperimetric inequalities fo
