We improve Larman's bound on the diameter of a polytope by showing that if $\Delta$ is a normal simplicial complex, all of whose missing faces have size at most $r$, then the diameter of the facet-ridge graph of $\Delta$ is not larger than…

We investigate families of two-dimensional simplicial complexes defined in terms of vertex decompositions. They include nonevasive complexes, strongly collapsible complexes of Barmak and Miniam and analogues of 2-trees of Harary and Palmer.…

We prove upper bounds on the face numbers of simplicial complexes in terms on their girths, in analogy with the Moore bound from graph theory. Our definition of girth generalizes the usual definition for graphs.

We study polynomial identities of finite dimensional simple color Lie superalgebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero graded by the product of two cyclic groups of order $2$. We prove that the codimensions of…

We study the Dirichlet problem for minimal surface systems in arbitrary dimension and codimension via mean curvature flow, and obtain the existence of minimal graphs over arbitrary mean convex bounded $C^2$ domains for a large class of…

A cograph is a simple graph that contains no induced path on four vertices. In this paper, we consider $\mathcal{C}$-graphs, which are a specific class of cographs, defined as $$\overline{\overline{\overline{K_{\alpha_{1}}}\cup…

Let M be a hyperbolic n-manifold whose cusps have torus cross-sections. In arXiv:0901.0056, the authors constructed a variety of nonpositively and negatively curved spaces as "2\pi-fillings" of M by replacing the cusps of M with compact…

Facets of the convex hull of $n$ independent random vectors chosen uniformly at random from the unit sphere in $\mathbb{R}^d$ are studied. A particular focus is given on the height of the facets as well as the expected number of facets as…

We consider the space of degree $n\ge 2$ rational maps of the Riemann sphere with $k$ distinct marked periodic orbits of given periods. First, we show that this space is irreducible. For $k=2n-2$ and with some mild restrictions on the…

We prove that, provided $d > k$, every sufficiently large subset of $\mathbf{F}_q^d$ contains an isometric copy of every $k$-simplex that avoids spanning a nontrivial self-orthogonal subspace. We obtain comparable results for simplices…

In this note, we initiate a study of the finite-dimensional representation theory of a class of algebras that correspond to noncommutative deformations of compact surfaces of arbitrary genus. Low dimensional representations are investigated…

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 show that a realization of a closed connected PL-manifold of dimension n-1 in Euclidean n-space (n>2) is the boundary of a convex polyhedron if and only if the interior of each (n-3)-face has a point, which has a neighborhood lying on…

In 2019 P. Patak and M. Tancer obtained the following higher-dimensional generalization of the Heawood inequality on embeddings of graphs into surfaces. We present a short well-structured proof accessible to non-specialists in the field.…

This paper is a continuation of our previous work in which we defined the notion of a polytope complex and its $K$-theory. In this paper we produce formulas for the delooping of a simplicial polytope complex and the cofiber of a morphism of…

We give a complete characterisation of the cubic graphs with no eigenvalues in the interval $(-2,0)$. There is one thin infinite family consisting of a single graph on $6n$ vertices for each $n \geqslant 2$, and five ``sporadic'' graphs,…

The (k,d)-hypersimplex is a (d-1)-dimensional polytope whose vertices are the (0,1)-vectors that sum to k. When k=1, we get a simplex whose graph is the complete graph with d vertices. Here we show how many of the well known graph…

We prove that the boundaries of the Milnor fibers of smoothings of non-isolated reduced complex surface singularities are graph manifolds. Moreover, we give a method, inspired by previous work of N\'emethi and Szilard, to compute associated…

In his paper "On the Schlafli differential equality", J. Milnor conjectured that the volume of n-dimensional hyperbolic and spherical simplices, as a function of the dihedral angles, extends continuously to the closure of the space of…

It is shown that the notion of W_\infty-algebra originally carried out over a (compact) Riemann surface can be extended to n complex dimensional (compact) manifolds within a symplectic geometrical setup. The relationships with the…
