A central objective of topological data analysis is to identify topologically significant features in data represented as a finite point cloud. We consider the setting where the ambient space of the point sample is a compact Riemannian…

A principal bundle over the connected sum of two manifolds need not be diffeomorphic or even homotopy equivalent to a non-trivial connected sum of manifolds. We show however that the homology of the total space of a bundle formed a pullback…

We examine connections between the gonality, treewidth, and orientable genus of a graph. Especially, we find that hyperelliptic graphs in the sense of Baker and Norine are planar. We give a notion of a bielliptic graph and show that each of…

The matching complex of a graph is the simplicial complex whose vertex set is the set of edges of the graph with a face for each independent set of edges. In this paper we completely characterize the pairs (graph, matching complex) for…

The reliability polynomial of a graph gives the probability that a graph remains operational when all its edges could fail independently with a certain fixed probability. In general, the problem of finding uniformly most reliable graphs…

We consider voltage digraphs, here referred to as graphs, whose edges are labeled with elements from a given group, and explore their derived graphs. Given two voltage graphs, with voltages in abelian groups, we establish a necessary and…

In this paper, we prove that two normal complex surface germs that are inner bilipschitz--but not necessarily orientation-preserving--homeomorphic, have in fact the same oriented topological type and the same minimal plumbing graph. Along…

The aim of this paper is to present a few versions of the Riemann-Hurwitz formula for a regular branched covering of graphs. By a graph, we mean a finite connected multigraph. The genus of a graph is defined as the rank of the first…

We say that a graph $G$ on $n$ vertices is $\{H,F\}$-$o$-heavy if every induced subgraph of $G$ isomorphic to $H$ or $F$ contains two nonadjacent vertices with degree sum at least $n$. Generalizing earlier sufficient forbidden subgraph…

A graph $G$ is $k$-edge-Hamiltonian if any collection of vertex-disjoint paths with at most $k$ edges altogether belong to a Hamiltonian cycle in $G$. A graph $G$ is $k$-Hamiltonian if for all $S\subseteq V(G)$ with $|S|\le k$, the subgraph…

The Berge-Fulkerson conjecture states that every bridgeless cubic graph can be covered with six perfect matchings such that each edge is covered exactly twice. An equivalent reformulation is that it's possible to find a 6-cycle 4-cover. In…

We will consider P-graph complexes, where P is a cyclic operad. P-graph complexes are natural generalizations of Kontsevich's graph complexes -- for P = the operad for associative algebras it is the complex of ribbon graphs, for P = the…

The notion of an upward plane graph in graph theory and that of a progressive plane graph (or plane string diagram) in category theory are essentially the same thing. In this paper, we combine the ideas in graph theory and category theory…

We adapt algorithms for resolving the singularities of complex algebraic varieties to prove that the natural map of homology theories from complex bordism to the bordism theory of complex derived orbifolds splits. In equivariant stable…

A graph is said to be orthogonalisable if the set of real symmetric matrices whose off-diagonal pattern is prescribed by its edges contains an orthogonal matrix. We determine some necessary and some sufficient conditions on the sizes of the…

Which $2$-regular subgraph $R$ of a cubic graph $G$ can be extended to a cycle double cover of $G$? We provide a condition which ensures that every $R$ satisfying this condition is part of a cycle double cover of $G$. As one consequence, we…
