We present a constructive proof, that there exists a decomposition of the 2-skeleton of the k-dimensional cross polytope \beta^k into closed surfaces of genus \leq 1, each with a transitive automorphism group given by the vertex transitive…
A transitive decomposition of a graph is a partition of the edge set together with a group of automorphisms which transitively permutes the parts. In this paper we determine all transitive decompositions of the Johnson graphs such that the…
We introduce the notion of a symplectic hopfoid, which is a "groupoid-like" object in the category of symplectic manifolds where morphisms are given by canonical relations. Such groupoid-like objects arise when applying a version of the…
Let $S$ be a compact Riemann surface and let $H$ be a finite group. It is known that if $H$ acts on $S$ then there is a $H$-equivariant isogeny decomposition of the Jacobian variety $JS$ of $S,$ called the group algebra decomposition of…
The slice decomposition is a bijective method for enumerating planar maps (graphs embedded in the sphere) with control over face degrees. In this paper, we extend the slice decomposition to the richer setting of hypermaps, naturally…
We consider a tippe top modeled as an eccentric sphere, spinning on a horizontal table and subject to a sliding friction. Ignoring translational effects, we show that the system is reducible using a Routhian reduction technique. The reduced…
Thurston and Calegari-Dunfield showed that the fundamental group of some tautly foliated hyperbolic 3-manifold acts on the circle in a distinctive way that the action preserves some structure of S^1, so-called a circle lamination. Indeed, a…
A Hamilton decomposition of a graph is a partitioning of its edge set into disjoint spanning cycles. The existence of such decompositions is known for all hypercubes of even dimension $2n$. We give a decomposition for the case $n = 2^a3^b$…
An answer to the question investigated in this paper brings a new characterization of internal groupoids such that: (a) it holds even when finite limits are not assumed to exist; (b) it is a full subcategory of the category of…
We study simple wrinkled fibrations, a variation of the simplified purely wrinkled fibrations introduced by Williams, and their combinatorial description in terms of surface diagrams. We show that simple wrinkled fibrations induce handle…
This paper is dedicated to the memory of Moshe Flato, and will appear in Lett. Math. Phys. 48 (1) It became clear during last 5-6 years that the algebraic world of associative algebras (abelian categories, triangulated categories, etc) has…
For any unoriented loop on a compact connected oriented surface with one boundary component, the generalized Dehn twist along the loop is defined as an automorphism of the completed group ring of the fundamental group of the surface. If the…
This paper constructs a foundation to analyze semi-group actions, group actions, filtrations, and decompositions in a unified manner. In fact, though the studies of decomposition can be applied to foliated spaces and group actions, they can…
The purpose of this paper is to survey the structure of closed and transitive transformation groups acting on a closed surface. In particular, we prove a number of relations between groups acting on the sphere that contain the rotation…
Doubly periodic tangles, or DP tangles, are embeddings of curves in the thickened plane that are periodically repeated in two directions. They are defined as universal covers of their generating cells, the flat motifs, which represent knots…
The automorphisms of a two-generator free group acting on the space of orientation-preserving isometric actions of on hyperbolic 3-space defines a dynamical system. Those actions which preserve a hyperbolic plane but not an orientation on…
The group of automorphisms of the free group on two generators is known to act geometrically, in an essentially unique way, on a 2-dimensional CAT(0) space X. We prove that X contains precisely two Hamiltonian surfaces. By this we mean a…
A two-orbit variety is a normal complete complex algebraic variety on which a reductive complex algebraic group acts with exactly two orbits. The aim of this paper is to give the classification of all two-orbit varieties and to prove Luna's…
The ideal (tagged resp.) triangulation of bounded surface with marked points are associated with skew-symmetric (skew-symmetrizable) exchange matrices. An algo- rithm is established to decompose the graph associated to such matrix. There…
Abstract polytopes are a combinatorial generalization of convex and skeletal polytopes. Counting how many flag orbits a polytope has under its automorphism group is a way of measuring how symmetric it is. Polytopes with one flag orbit are…
