Suppose a convex body wants to pass through a circular hole in a wall. Does its ability to do so depend on the thickness of the wall? In fact in most cases it does, and in this paper we present a sufficient criterion for a polytope to allow an affirmative answer to the question.

Abstract
Some theorems from inversive and Euclidean circle geometry are extended to all affine Cayley-Klein planes. In particular, we obtain an analogue to the first step of Clifford’s chain of theorems, a statement related to Napoleon’s theorem, extensions of Wood’s theorem on similar-perspective triangles and of the known fact that the three radical axes of three given circles are parallel or have a point in common. For proving these statements, we use generalized complex numbers.

Let R be a ring and define x ○ y = x + y - xy, which yields a monoid (R, ○), called the circle semigroup of R. This paper investigates the relationship between the ring and its circle semigroup. Of particular interest are the cases where the semigroup is simple, 0-simple, cancellative, 0-cancellative, regular, inverse, or the union of groups, or where the ring is simple, regular, or a domain. The idempotents in R coincide with the idempotents in (R, ○) and play an important role in the theory developed.
The problem of maximizing the radius of n equal circles that can be packed into a given square is a well-known geometrical problem.It is equivalent to the problem of scattering n points in a square so that the minimum distance between any two points is as large as possible.The optimal packings of at most 20 circles are known,and probably best packings found by computational methods are published for 21 5 5 We survey the results for 21 5 5 and present better packings for n =34.
and between the two world wars, when ethnic nationalism continued to shape the Czechoslovak Republic. Rooted in the late middle ages, literary societies had been widespread in almost every town and city of Europe ever since the first such circles
We prove that every nilpotent group of class 2 and exponent 4 is the circle group of a nilpotent ring of index 3 and characteristic 2.
