A graph or hypergraph is said to be vertex-transitive if its automorphism group acts transitively upon its vertices. A classic theorem of Mader asserts that every connected vertex-transitive graph is maximally edge-connected. We generalise…

We consider two possible extensions of a theorem of Thomassen characterizing the graphs admitting a 2-vertex-connected orientation. First, we show that the problem of deciding whether a mixed graph has a 2-vertex-connected orientation is…

We prove that if X, X' are closed subschemes of a torus T over a non-Archimedean field K, of complementary codimension and with finite intersection, then the stable tropical intersection along a (possibly positive-dimensional, possibly…

Every graph $\Gamma$ can be embedded in the plane with a minimal number of edge intersections, called its classical crossing number $\text{cross}\left(\Gamma\right)$. In this paper, we prove that if $\Gamma$ is a metric graph it can be…

Given a closed subvariety of an algebraic torus, the associated tropical variety is a polyhedral fan in the space of 1-parameter subgroups of the torus which describes the behaviour of the subvariety at infinity. We show that the link of…

We propose a generalization of tropical curves by dropping the rationality and integrality requirements while preserving the balancing condition. An interpretation of such curves as critical points of a certain quadratic functional allows…

A hypergraph is a generalization of a graph, in which a hyperedge can connect multiple vertices, modeling complex relationships involving multiple vertices simultaneously. Hypergraph pattern matching, which is to find all isomorphic…

The visibility graph of a simple polygon represents visibility relations between its vertices. Knowing the correct order of the vertices around the boundary of a polygon and its visibility graph, it is an open problem to locate the vertices…

There is a well known correspondence between the triangle inequality for a distance function on a finite set, and idempotency of an associated matrix over the tropical semiring. Recent research has shed new light on the structure…

A graph $G=(V,E)$ is a support of a hypergraph $H=(V,S)$ if every hyperedge induces a connected subgraph in $G$. Supports are used for certain types of hypergraph visualizations. In this paper we consider visualizing spatial hypergraphs,…
