One may associate several frames to a given polytope, such as its collection of vertices, edges, or facet normal vectors. In this note, we use these frames to generate geometric inequalities for the simplex in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and polytopes…

We explore connections between the generalized multiplicities of square-free monomial ideals and the combinatorial structure of the underlying hypergraphs using methods of commutative algebra and polyhedral geometry. For instance, we show…

A stacking operation adds a $d$-simplex on top of a facet of a simplicial $d$-polytope while maintaining the convexity of the polytope. A stacked $d$-polytope is a polytope that is obtained from a $d$-simplex and a series of stacking…

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…

This paper introduces an inductively defined tree notation for all the faces of polytopes arising from a simplex by truncations. This notation allows us to view inclusion of faces as the process of contracting tree edges. Our notation…

We show that a nontrivial graph isomorphism problem of two undirected graphs, and more generally, the permutation similarity of two given $n\times n$ matrices, is equivalent to equalities of volumes of the induced three convex bounded…

We propose a classification of polyhedra (planar, $3$-connected graphs) according to their type i.e., their set of quantities of common neighbours for each pair of distinct vertices. For every (finite) set of non-negative integers, we…

A survey is given on mathematical structures which emerge in multi-loop Feynman diagrams. These are multiply nested sums, and, associated to them by an inverse Mellin transform, specific iterated integrals. Both classes lead to sets of…

This article provides an overview of our joint work on binary polynomial optimization over the past decade. We define the multilinear polytope as the convex hull of the feasible region of a linearized binary polynomial optimization problem.…

We consider the moduli space of bordered Riemann surfaces with boundary and marked points. Such spaces appear in open-closed string theory, particularly with respect to holomorphic curves with Lagrangian submanifolds. We consider a…

We analyze polyhedra composed of hexagons and triangles with three faces around each vertex, and their 3-regular planar graphs of edges and vertices, which we call "trihexes". Trihexes are analogous to fullerenes, which are 3-regular planar…

Using a notation of corner between edges when graph has a fixed rotation, i.e. cyclical order of edges around vertices, we define combinatorial objects - combinatorial maps as pairs of permutations, one for vertices and one for faces.…

Fundamental to many applications in data analysis are the decompositions of a graph, i.e. partitions of the node set into component-inducing subsets. One way of encoding decompositions is by multicuts, the subsets of those edges that…

Multinets are certain configurations of lines and points with multiplicities in the complex projective plane P2. They are used in the studies of resonance and characteristic varieties of complex hyperplane arrangement complements and…

In this purely experimental work we try to represent the set of plane maps with 3 vertices and 3 faces as a bipartite ribbon graph. In particular, this construction allows one to estimate the genus of the initial set.

Let R be a commutative ring and M be an R-module. We define the large sum graph, denoted by \acute{G}(M), as a graph with the vertex set of non-large submodules of M and two distinct vertices are adjacent if and only if N + K is a non-large…

Symmetric edge polytopes, a.k.a. PV-type adjacency polytopes, associated with undirected graphs have been defined and studied in several seemingly independent areas including number theory, discrete geometry, and dynamical systems. In…

Let $K$ be a closed convex polyhedron defined by a finite number of linear inequalities. In this paper we refine the theory of abstract tubes (Naiman and Wynn, 1997) associated with $K$ when $K$ is perturbed. In particular, we focus on the…

To every poset P, Stanley (1986) associated two polytopes, the order polytope and the chain polytope, whose geometric properties reflect the combinatorial qualities of P. This construction allows for deep insights into combinatorics by way…

In this paper we consider aspects of geometric observability for hypergraphs, extending our earlier work from the uniform to the nonuniform case. Hypergraphs, a generalization of graphs, allow hyperedges to connect multiple nodes and…
