We investigate the size of vertex confidence sets for including part of (or the entirety of) the seed in seeded uniform attachment trees, given knowledge of some of the seed's properties, and with a prescribed probability of failure. We…
Trees with many leaves have applications on broadcasting, which is a method in networks for transferring a message to all recipients simultaneously. Internal nodes of a broadcasting tree require more expensive technology, because they have…
A vertex of degree one in a tree is called an end vertex and a vertex of degree at least three is called a branch vertex. For a graph $G$, let $\sigma_2$ be the minimum degree sum of two nonadjacent vertices in $G$. We consider tree…
The largest common embeddable subtree problem asks for the largest possible tree embeddable into two input trees and generalizes the classical maximum common subtree problem. Several variants of the problem in labeled and unlabeled rooted…
In a reconfiguration problem, given a problem and two feasible solutions of the problem, the task is to find a sequence of transformations to reach from one solution to the other such that every intermediate state is also a feasible…
Motivated by finding planar embeddings that lead to drawings with favorable aesthetics, we study the problems MINMAXFACE and UNIFORMFACES of embedding a given biconnected multi-graph such that the largest face is as small as possible and…
Graph embedding based on random-walks supports effective solutions for many graph-related downstream tasks. However, the abundance of embedding literature has made it increasingly difficult to compare existing methods and to identify…
In this paper, we study sequences of perfect t-embeddings of a uniformly weighted family of graphs we call generalized tower graphs. We show that the embeddings of these graphs satisfy certain technical assumptions, in particular, the…
We introduce and study the $\textit{OrthoSEFE}-k$ problem: Given $k$ planar graphs each with maximum degree 4 and the same vertex set, do they admit an OrthoSEFE, that is, is there an assignment of the vertices to grid points and of the…
In the Partially Embedded Planarity problem, we are given a graph $G$ together with a topological drawing of a subgraph $H$ of $G$. The task is to decide whether the drawing can be extended to a drawing of the whole graph such that no two…
We study two decomposition problems in combinatorial geometry. The first part deals with the decomposition of multiple coverings of the plane. We say that a planar set is cover-decomposable if there is a constant m such that any m-fold…
An embedding of a graph in a book, called book embedding, consists of a linear ordering of its vertices along the spine of the book and an assignment of its edges to the pages of the book, so that no two edges on the same page cross. The…
In this survey-research paper, we first introduce the theory of Smith classes of complexes with fixed-point free, periodic maps on them. These classes, when defined for the deleted product of a simplicial complex $K$, are the same as the…
Given a smooth complex variety $X$, an algebraically skew embedding of $X$ is an embedding of $X$ into a complex projective space $\mathbb{P}^N$ such that for any two points $x,y\in X$, their embedded tangent spaces in $\mathbb{P}^N$ do not…
We introduce the theory of div point sets, which aims to provide a framework to study the combinatoric nature of any set of points in general position on an Euclidean plane. We then show that proving the unsatisfiability of some first-order…
A tree is called k-ended tree if it has at most k leaves, where a leaf is a vertex of degree one. In this paper we prove that every 3-regular connected graph with n vertices such that n is greater than 8 has spanning sub tree with at most…
We investigate $k$-nets with $k\geq 4$ embedded in the projective plane $PG(2,\mathbb{K})$ defined over a field $\mathbb{K}$; they are line configurations in $PG(2,\mathbb{K})$ consisting of $k$ pairwise disjoint line-sets, called…
A class of neural networks that gained particular interest in the last years are neural ordinary differential equations (neural ODEs). We study input-output relations of neural ODEs using dynamical systems theory and prove several results…
The goal of this paper is to prove that several variants of deciding whether a poset can be (weakly) embedded into a small Boolean lattice, or to a few consecutive levels of a Boolean lattice, are NP-complete, answering a question of Griggs…
A treedepth decomposition of an undirected graph $G$ is a rooted forest $F$ on the vertex set of $G$ such that every edge $uv\in E(G)$ is in ancestor-descendant relationship in $F$. Given a weight function $w\colon V(G)\rightarrow…
