Grid diagrams are special representations of knots in the three-sphere that are used to define a combinatorial version of knot Floer homology. Paolo Ghiggini and Yi Ni showed that knot Floer homology detects fibered knots. Their results…

This note gives necessary and sufficient conditions for a sequence of non-negative integers to be the degree sequence of a connected simple graph. This result is implicit in a paper of Hakimi. A new alternative characterisation of these…

Connections between structural graph theory and finite model theory recently gained a lot of attention. In this setting, many interesting questions remain on the properties of dependent (NIP) hereditary classes of graphs, in particular…

We prove the conjecture by M. Yip stating that counting genus one partitions by the number of their elements and parts yields, up to a shift of indices, the same array of numbers as counting genus one rooted hypermonopoles. Our proof…

We investigate properties which ensure that a given finite graph is the commuting graph of a group or semigroup. We show that all graphs on at least two vertices such that no vertex is adjacent to all other vertices is the commuting graph…

According to the O'Nan--Scott Theorem, a finite primitive permutation group either preserves a structure of one of three types (affine space, Cartesian lattice, or diagonal semilattice), or is almost simple. However, diagonal groups are a…

This article provides a method for constructing invariants and semi-invariants of a binary $N$-ic form over a field $k$ characteristics $0$ or $p > N$. A practical and broadly applicable sufficient condition for ensuring nontriviality of…

Graded rings provide a natural algebraic framework for encoding symmetry via decompositions into homogeneous components indexed by a group, together with multiplication rules reflecting the group operation. Among graded rings, strongly…

In 2007, Arkin et al. initiated a systematic study of the complexity of the Hamiltonian cycle problem on square, triangular, or hexagonal grid graphs, restricted to polygonal, thin, superthin, degree-bounded, or solid grid graphs. They…

Ordering theorems, characterizing when partial orders of a group extend to total orders, are used to generate hypersequent calculi for varieties of lattice-ordered groups (l-groups). These calculi are then used to provide new proofs of…

We automatically verify the crucial steps in the original proof of correctness of an algorithm which, given a geometric graph satisfying certain additional properties removes edges in a systematic way for producing a connected graph in…

For a finite-dimensional algebra {\Lambda}, we establish an explicit bijection between widely generated torsion(-free) classes and semibricks in mod {\Lambda}. Using the kappa order on the lattice of torsion classes with canonical join…

Here it is shown that standard set theory can be interpreted in a theory about order. The ordering here is about non-extensional flat classes, i.e. classes that are not elements of classes. So, stipulating a nearly well order over all those…

Let m>2 be an integer. We show that ZF + "For every integer n, Every countable family of non-empty sets of cardinality at most n has an infinite partial choice function" is not strong enough to prove that every countable set of m-element…

We study the connectivity of proper power graphs of some family of finite groups including nilpotent groups, groups with a non-trivial partition, and symmetric and alternating groups.

We present different ways of endowing a particular category of graphs with Quillen model structures. We show, among other things, that the core of a graph can be seen as its homotopy type in an appropriate Quillen model structure, and that…

We prove a noetherian criterion for a sequence of modules with linear maps between them. This generalizes a noetherian criterion of Gan and Li for infinite EI categories. We apply our criterion to the linear categories associated to certain…

Extending the work of Godsil and others, we investigate the notion of the inverse of a graph (specifically, of bipartite graphs with a unique perfect matching). We provide a concise necessary and sufficient condition for the invertibility…

We formulate a notion of "geometric reductivity" in an abstract categorical setting which we refer to as adequacy. The main theorem states that the adequacy condition implies that the ring of invariants is finitely generated. This result…

We introduce an elementary class of linearly ordered groups, called growth order groups, encompassing certain groups under composition of formal series (e.g. transseries) as well as certain groups $\mathcal{G}_{\mathcal{M}}$ of infinitely…
