We discuss the cohomology of the bridgeless graph complex, that is, the subcomplex of the Kontsevich graph complex spanned by bridgeless graphs.

In this paper we study the one dimensional random geometric graph when the location of the nodes are independent and exponentially distributed. We derive exact results and the limit theorems for the connectivity and other properties…

We show that subcubic graphs of treewidth at least $2500$ do not have the edge-Erd\H{o}s-P\'{o}sa property.

D. A. Kahzdan first put forth property (T) in relation to the study of discrete subgroups of Lie groups of finite co-volume. Through a combinatorial approach, we define an analogue of property (T) for regular graphs. We then prove the basic…

Extending the well-known star-comb lemma for infinite graphs, we characterise the graphs that do not contain an infinite comb or an infinite star, respectively, attached to a given set of vertices. We offer several characterisations: in…

We prove a cohomological property for a class of finite $p$-groups introduced earlier by M. Y. Xu, which we call semi-abelian $p$-groups. This result implies that a semi-abelian $p$-group has non-inner automorphisms of order $p$, which…

We review (non-abelian) extensions of a given Lie algebra, identify a 3-dimensional cohomological obstruction to the existence of extensions. A striking analogy to the setting of covariant exterior derivatives, curvature, and the Bianchi…

In this short note we answer a query of Brodzki, Niblo, \v{S}pakula, Willett and Wright by showing that all bounded degree uniformly locally amenable graphs have Property A. For the second result of the note recall that Kaiser proved that…

In this paper, we study non-abelian extensions of strict Lie 2-algebras via the cohomology theory. A non-abelian extension of a strict Lie 2-algebra $\g$ by $\frkh$ gives rise to a strict homomorphism from $\g$ to $\SOut(\frkh)$.…

We consider the following properties of compact oriented irreducible graph-manifolds: to contain a $\pi_1$-injective surface (immersed, virtually embedded or embedded), be (virtually) fibered over $S^1$, and to carry a metric of nonpositive…

We study infinite analogues of expander graphs, namely graphs where subgraphs weighted by heat kernels form an expander family. Our main result is that there does not exist any infinite expander in this sense. This proves the analogue for…

In this paper, we will compute the non-abelian cohomology of the universal complete curve in positive characteristic. This extends Hain's result on the non-abelian cohomology of generic curves in characteristic zero to positive…

We describe a natural topological generalization of edge expansion for graphs to regular CW complexes and prove that this property holds with high probability for certain random complexes.

The cohomology and deformation theory of 3-Lie algebras are revisited. The theory of extending structures and unified product for 3-Lie algebras are developed.It is proved that the extending structures of 3-Lie algebras can be classified by…

We show that families of coverings of an algebraic curve where the associated Cayley-Schreier graphs form an expander family exhibit strong forms of geometric (genus and gonality) growth. Combining this general result with finiteness…

We construct exponential objects in categories of generalized uniform hypergraphs and use embeddings induced by nerve-realization adjunctions to show why conventional categories of graphs and hypergraphs do not have exponential objects.

The existence of nonconstant harmonic Dirichlet functions on a Cayley graph of a discrete group is equivalent to the nonvanishing of the first L2-cohomology of the given group. It was first proven by Cheeger and Gromov that such functions…
