The Fermat-Torricelli Problem in the Projective Plane

preprint2022arXivOpen access

Abstract

We pose and study the Fermat-Torricelli problem for a triangle in the projective plane under the sine distance. Our main finding is that if every side of the triangle has length greater than sin⁡60∘\sin 60^\circ, then the Fermat-Torricelli point is the vertex opposite the longest side. Our proof relies on a complete characterization of the equilateral case together with a deformation argument.
