It is shown that all the vertices of such nets (we call them incircular or IC-nets) lie on confocal conics. Our main new results are on checkerboard IC-nets in the plane. These are congruences of straight lines in the plane with the combinatorics of the square grid, combinatorially colored as a checkerboard, such that all black coordinate quadrilaterals possess inscribed circles. We show how this larger class of IC-nets appears quite naturally in Laguerre geometry of oriented planes and spheres and leads to new remarkable incidence theorems. Most of our results are valid in hyperbolic and spherical geometries as well. We present also generalizations in spaces of higher dimension, called checkerboard IS-nets. The construction of these nets is based on a new 9 inspheres incidence theorem."}],"publication":"Transactions of the American Mathematical Society","publication_status":"published","doi":"10.1090/tran/7292","author":[{"orcid":"0000-0002-2548-617X","full_name":"Akopyan, Arseniy","first_name":"Arseniy","id":"430D2C90-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","last_name":"Akopyan"},{"last_name":"Bobenko","full_name":"Bobenko, Alexander","first_name":"Alexander"}],"_id":"458","date_created":"2018-12-11T11:46:35Z","month":"04","citation":{"ieee":"A.
