A coloring of vertices of a given graph is called perfect if the color structure of each ball of radius $1$ in the graph depends only on the color of the ball center. Let $n$ be a positive integer. We consider a lexicographic product of the…

We study the complexity of symmetric assembly puzzles: given a collection of simple polygons, can we translate, rotate, and possibly flip them so that their interior-disjoint union is line symmetric? On the negative side, we show that the…

The aim of this paper is to extend and generalise some work of Katona on the existence of perfect matchings or Hamilton cycles in graphs subject to certain constraints. The most general form of these constraints is that we are given a…

Over an infinite field $K$, we investigate the minimal free resolution of some configurations of lines. We explicitly describe the minimal free resolution of "complete grids of lines" and obtain an analogous result about the so-called…

We discuss various compatibility criteria for overdetermined systems of PDEs generalizing the approach to formal integrability via brackets of differential operators. Then we give sufficient conditions that guarantee that a PDE possessing a…

Symmetries for wave equation with additional conditions are found. Some conditions yield infinite-dimensional symmetry algebra for the nonlinear equation. Ansatzes and solutions corresponding to the new symmetries were constructed.

We show that large subsets of vector spaces over finite fields determine certain point configurations with prescribed distance structure. More specifically, we consider the complete graph with vertices as the points of $A \subseteq…

A vertex $u$ in a graph $G$ totally dominates a vertex $v$ if $u$ is adjacent to $v$ in $G$. A total dominating set of $G$ is a set $S$ of vertices of $G$ such that every vertex of $G$ is totally dominated by a vertex in $S$. The indicated…

We consider a relaxation of the concept of well-covered graphs, which are graphs with all maximal independent sets of the same size. The extent to which a graph fails to be well-covered can be measured by its independence gap, defined as…

This paper presents a general closed graph property for (randomized strategy) Nash equilibrium correspondence in large games. In particular, we show that for any large game with a convergent sequence of fiinite-player games, the limit of…

Suppose an orientation preserving action of a finite group $G$ on the closed surface $\Sigma_g$ of genus $g>1$ extends over the 3-torus $T^3$ for some embedding $\Sigma_g\subset T^3$. Then $|G|\le 12(g-1)$, and this upper bound $12(g-1)$…

We study the correlated equilibrium polytope $P_G$ of a game $G$ from a combinatorial point of view. We introduce the region of full-dimensionality for this class of polytopes and prove that it is a semialgebraic set for any game. Using a…

Noncommutative geometry has seen remarkable applications for high energy physics, viz. the geometrical interpretation of the Standard Model. The question whether it also allows for supersymmetric theories has so far not been answered in a…

Here we introduce a new game on graphs, called cup stacking, following a line of what can be considered as $0$-, $1$-, or $2$-person games such as chip firing, percolation, graph burning, zero forcing, cops and robbers, graph pebbling, and…

In the perfect tiling problem, we aim to cover the vertices of a hypergraph~$G$ with pairwise vertex-disjoint copies of a hypergraph $F$. There are three essentially necessary conditions for such a perfect tiling, which correspond to…

Asymptotic symmetries of the five dimensional noncompact symmetric space SL(3)/SO(3) are found to form an infinite dimensional Lie algebra, analogously to the asymptotic symmetries of anti-de Sitter spaces in two and three dimensions.…

A graph admitting a perfect matching has the Perfect-Matching-Hamiltonian property (for short the PMH-property) if each of its perfect matchings can be extended to a Hamiltonian cycle. In this paper we establish some sufficient conditions…

We conjecture that every oriented graph $G$ on $n$ vertices with $\delta ^+ (G) , \delta ^- (G) \geq 5n/12$ contains the square of a Hamilton cycle. We also give a conjectural bound on the minimum semidegree which ensures a perfect packing…

A coloring of vertices of a graph is called perfect if, for every vertex, the collection of colors of its neighbors depends only on its own color. The correspondent color partition of vertices is called equitable. We note that a number of…

A finite graph $\Gamma$ is called $G$-symmetric if $G$ is a group of automorphisms of $\Gamma$ which is transitive on the set of ordered pairs of adjacent vertices of $\Gamma$. We study a family of symmetric graphs, called the unitary…
