In this paper we continue our investigation of the global categorical symmetries that arise when gauging finite higher groups and their higher subgroups with discrete torsion. The motivation is to provide a common perspective on the…

Menger's theorem is an important building block of numerous results in the study of graph structure. We consider a variant in terms of coarse geometry. We say that a set of graphs has the weak coarse Menger property if there exist functions…

We show that a non-piercing family of connected planar sets with bounded independence number can be stabbed with a constant number of points. As a consequence, we answer a question of Axenovich, Kie{\ss}le and Sagdeev about the largest…

For uniformly expanding maps on the interval, analogous versions of the Berry-Ess\'een theorem are known but only with an unexplicit upper bound in $O(1/\sqrt{n})$ without any constants being specified. In this paper, we use the recent…

The connective constant $\mu(G)$ of an infinite transitive graph $G$ is the exponential growth rate of the number of self-avoiding walks from a given origin. In earlier work of Grimmett and Li, a locality theorem was proved for connective…

We prove that the general fibre of the $i$-th Gauss map has dimension $m$ if and only if at the general point the $(i+1)$-th fundamental form consists of cones with vertex a fixed $\mathbb P^{m-1}$, extending a known theorem for the usual…

We introduce and analyze the concept of an assembly map from the original homotopy theoretic point of view. We give also interpretations in terms of surgery theory, controlled topology and index theory. The motivation is that prominent…

We show that a map with H\"older exponent bigger than $1/2$ from a quasi-convex metric space with vanishing first Lipschitz homology into the Sub-Riemannian Heisenberg group factors through a tree. In particular, if the domain contains a…

We prove properties of extremal graphs of girth 5 and order 20 <=v <= 32. In each case we identify the possible minimum and maximum degrees, and in some cases prove the existence of (non-trivial) embedded stars. These proofs allow for…

The aim of this paper is to develop a method for proving almost sure convergence in Gromov-Hausodorff-Prokhorov topology for a class of models of growing random graphs that generalises R\'emy's algorithm for binary trees. We describe the…

This paper is devoted to Wiener index of directed graphs, more precisely of directed grids. The grid $G_{m,n}$ is the Cartesian product $P_m\Box P_n$ of paths on $m$ and $n$ vertices, and in a particular case when $m=2$, it is a called the…

Consider two independent Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi $G(N,1/2)$ graphs. We show that with probability tending to $1$ as $N\to\infty$, the largest induced isomorphic subgraph has size either $\lfloor x_N-\varepsilon_N\rfloor$ or $\lfloor…

Assume that $G$ is a finite group and let $a$ and $b$ be non-negative integers. We define an undirected graph $\Gamma_{a,b}(G)$ whose vertices correspond to the elements of $G^a\cup G^b$ and in which two tuples $(x_1,\dots,x_a)$ and…

Answering a question of Diestel, we develop a topological notion of gammoids in infinite graphs which, unlike traditional infinite gammoids, always define a matroid. As our main tool, we prove for any infinite graph $G$ with vertex sets $A$…
