Via circle pattern techniques, random planar triangulations (with angle variables) are mapped onto Delaunay triangulations in the complex plane. The uniform measure on triangulations is mapped onto a conformally invariant spatial point…

This paper aims to show that there exists a triangulation of the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^n$ into singular simplexes with regularity properties on both the low-dimensional and high-dimensional layers. For low dimensions, we request our…

A tanglegram consists of two rooted binary trees and a perfect matching between their leaves, and a planar tanglegram is one that admits a layout with no crossings. We show that the problem of generating planar tanglegrams uniformly at…

The triangulations of a regular convex polygon are enumerated according to the number of diagonals parallel to a fixed edge. The enumeration uses the Shapiro convolution identity, as well as an interpretation of this identity in terms of…

We describe an infinite family of edge-decompositions of complete graphs into two graphs, each of which triangulate the same orientable surface. Previously, such decompositions had only been known for only a few complete graphs. These…

The objects of study are triangulations of the dilated standard triangle in the plane. Motivated by work on T-curves (Geiselmann et al., 2026), the focus lies on unimodular triangulations with a fixed symmetry axis. Lower and upper bounds…

The aim of this paper is to study alcoved polytopes, which are polytopes arising from affine Coxeter arrangements. This class of convex polytopes includes many classical polytopes, for example, the hypersimplices. We compare two…

The Planar Contraction problem is to test whether a given graph can be made planar by using at most k edge contractions. This problem is known to be NP-complete. We show that it is fixed-parameter tractable when parameterized by k.

Polytope numbers for a polytope are a sequence of nonnegative integers that are defined by the facial information of a polytope. Every polygon is triangulable and a higher dimensional analogue of this fact states that every polytope is…

A graph on $2k+1$ vertices consisting of $k$ triangles which intersect in exactly one common vertex is called a $k$-fan and denoted by $F_k$. This paper aims to determine the graphs of order $n$ that have the maximum (adjacency) spectral…

This paper summarizes results on some topics in the max-plus convex geometry, mainly concerning the role of multiorder, Kleene stars and cyclic projectors, and relates them to some topics in max algebra. The multiorder principle leads to…

We show that the star graph defined as the Cayley graph of ${\mathfrak S}_{n+1}$ generated by the star transpositions is an ${\mathfrak S}_n$-cover of the complete graph $K_{n+1}$, which is known to have fine spectral properties. In the…

String diagrams are a powerful tool for reasoning about composite structures in symmetric monoidal categories. By representing string diagrams as graphs, equational reasoning can be done automatically by double-pushout rewriting. !-graphs…

We provide a characterization of infinite frieze patterns of positive integers via triangulations of an infinite strip in the plane. In the periodic case, these triangulations may be considered as triangulations of annuli. We also give a…

We introduce the notion of an \emph{asymptotic triangulation} of the annulus. We show that asymptotic triangulations can be mutated as the usual triangulations and describe their exchange graph. Viewing asymptotic triangulations as limits…

We characterise $t$-perfect plane triangulations by forbidden induced subgraphs. As a consequence, we obtain that a plane triangulation is $h$-perfect if and only if it is perfect.
