Cyclic Sums for Polygons
The author proves two new theorems on cyclic sums for polygons in the plane. Namely, let \(P\) be a given \(n\)-gon and \(j\), \(k\) be positive integers with \(j+ k< n\). Then there are constants \(\lambda_0,\lambda_1,\dots, \lambda_{n-1}\) and \(k_1\) such that \[ \sum^{n-1}_{i=0} \lambda_i\Biggl\|{W_iC\over W_1V_i}\Biggr\|= k_1,\qquad i= 0,1,\dots, n-1, \] where \(C\) is an arbitrary point and \(W_i\) is the intersection point of the line \(V_iC\) with the side or diagonal \(V_{i-j}V_{i+k}\) of \(P\). For an affine regular \(P\) and each \(i= 0,1,\dots, n-1\) one has \[ \sum^{n-1}_{i=0} \Biggl\|{W_iC\over W_iV_i}\Biggr\|= k_2, \] where \(k_2\) is constant, depending on \(n\), \(j\) and \(k\), but not depending on the choice of \(P\) and on the position of \(C\). Moreover, \[ k_2= {n\sin(j+ k)\varphi\over \sin(j+ k)\varphi- \sin j\varphi-\sin k\varphi},\qquad \varphi= {2\pi\over n}. \]
