      Tzitzéica's theorem, proved in 1908, states that if three concurrent circles have the same radii, then their other three intersection points determine a fourth circle of the same size. The first part of this paper is an excellent survey of the literature devoted to this theorem and its generalizations in Euclidean as well as in Minkowski geometry. The author then introduces Clifford's (1870) chain of theorems, which yields, in case the starting circles have equal radius, another generalization of Tzitzéica's theorem, which is further generalized by the author to \(d\)-dimensional Euclidean space (with \(d\geq 2\)), with equilateral zonotopes entering the picture. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0867.00024].
