Digital Intersections: minimal carrier, connectivity, and periodicity properties

Digital geometry is very different from Euclidean geometry in many ways and the intersection of two digital lines or planes is often used to illustrate those differences. Nevertheless, while digital lines and planes are widely studied in many areas, very few works deal with the intersection of such objects. In this paper, we investigate the geometrical and arithmetical properties of those objects. More precisely, we give some new results about the connectivity, periodicity, and minimal parameters of the intersection of two digital lines or planes.
