We consider maps on orientable surfaces. A map is called \emph{unicellular} if it has a single face. A \emph{covered map} is a map (of genus $g$) with a marked unicellular spanning submap (which can have any genus in $\{0,1,...,g\}$). Our…

In this paper we discuss off-shell representations of N-extended supersymmetry in one dimension, ie, N-extended supersymmetric quantum mechanics, and following earlier work on the subject codify them in terms of certain graphs, called…

Define $QC(n)$ to be the number of quasiplatonic topological actions of the cyclic group $C_n$ on surfaces of genus at least two. We use formulas of Benim and Wootton to give an explicit formula for $QC(n)$. In addition, we relate the…

Fix a positive integer $n$ and consider the bipartite graph whose vertices are the $3$-element subsets and the $2$-element subsets of $[n]=\{1,2,\dots,n\}$, and there is an edge between $A$ and $B$ if $A\subset B$. We prove that the…

An s-cap n-flat is given by a set of s points, no three of which are on a common line, in an n-dimensional affine space over the field of three elements. The cap set problem in dimension n is: what is the maximum s such that there is an…

An asymmetric binary covering code of length n and radius R is a subset C of the n-cube Q_n such that every vector x in Q_n can be obtained from some vector c in C by changing at most R 1's of c to 0's, where R is as small as possible.…

Classes of polynomial differential equations of degree n are considered. An explicit upper bound on the size of the coefficients are given which implies that each equation in the class has exactly n complex periodic solutions. In most of…

A set of n non-collinear points in the Euclidean plane defines at least n different lines. Chen and Chv\'tal in 2008 conjectured that the same results is true in metric spaces for an adequate definition of line. More recently, it was…

For a hypergraph $H=(V,\mathcal E)$, a subfamily $\mathcal C\subseteq \mathcal E$ is called a cover of the hypergraph if $\bigcup\mathcal C=\bigcup\mathcal E$. A cover $\mathcal C$ is called minimal if each cover $\mathcal…

Kok et.al. [3] introduced Jaco Graphs \emph{(order 1)}. It is hoped that as a special case, a closed formula can be found for the number of edges of a finite Jaco Graph $J_n(1)$. However, the algorithms discussed in Ahlbach et.al. [1]…

A few years ago, G. Oberdieck conjectured a multiple cover fomula that determines the number of curves of fixed genus and degree passing through a configuration of points in an abelian surface. This formula was proved by the author using…

The \textit{boxicity} (\textit{cubicity}) of an undirected graph $\Gamma$ is the smallest non-negative integer $k$ such that $\Gamma$ can be represented as the intersection graph of axis-parallel rectangular boxes (unit cubes) in…

This note informally describes a way to build certain cubical n-categories by iterating a process of taking models of certain finite limits theories. We base this discussion on a construction of "double bicategories" as bicategories…

Consider a pseudogroup on (C,0) generated by two local diffeomorphisms having analytic conjugacy classes a priori fixed in Diff(C,0). We show that a generic pseudogroup as above is such that every point has (possibly trivial) cyclic…

It is proved that the degree of a morphism from a smooth projective n-fold with Picard number one to a smooth n-quadric is bounded (provided, of course, that n is at least three). Actually it has been proved some years ago, but I have never…

We introduce some compact orbifolds on which there is a certain finite group action having a simple convex polytope as the orbit space. We compute the orbifold fundamental group and homology groups of these orbifolds. We calculate the…

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a set of finite groups. A finite group $G$ is called an \emph{$\mathcal{F}$-cover} if every group in $\mathcal{F}$ is isomorphic to a subgroup of $G$. An $\mathcal{F}$-cover is called \emph{minimal} if no proper…

We present a method to obtain upper bounds on covering numbers. As applications of this method, we reprove and generalize results of Rogers on economically covering Euclidean $n$-space with translates of a convex body, or more generally,…

We show that the vertices and edges of a $d$-dimensional grid graph $G=(V,E)$ ($d\geqslant 2$) can be labeled with the integers from $\{1,\ldots,\lvert V\rvert\}$ and $\{1,\ldots,\lvert E\rvert\}$, respectively, in such a way that for every…

This paper considers the \textit{Zarankiewicz problem} in graphs with low-dimensional geometric representation (i.e., low Ferrers dimension). Our first result reveals a separation between bipartite graphs of Ferrers dimension three and…
