We generalize the Moishezon Teicher algorithm that was suggested for the computation of the braid monodromy of an almost real curve. The new algorithm suits a larger family of curves, and enables the computation of braid monodromy not only…
We consider graph complexes with a flow and compute their cohomology. More specifically, we prove that for a PROP generated by a Koszul dioperad, the corresponding graph complex gives a minimal model of the PROP. We also give another proof…
In this paper we continue the perturbative analysis of the quartic Kontsevich model. We investigate meromorphic functions $\Omega^{(0)}_m$ with $m=1,2$, that obey blobbed topological recursion. We calculate their expansions and check their…
We give a quantum field theory interpretation of Kontsevich's deformation quantization formula for Poisson manifolds. We show that it is given by the perturbative expansion of the path integral of a simple topological bosonic open string…
We introduce a new combinatorial method to encode knots and links with applications to knot invariants. Clasp diagrams defined in this paper are combinatorial blueprints for building knot diagrams out of full twists on two strings rather…
Extending the methods from our previous work on quantum knots and quantum graphs, we describe a general procedure for quantizing a large class of mathematical structures which includes, for example, knots, graphs, groups, algebraic…
We use the Chebyshev knot diagram model of Koseleff and Pecker in order to introduce a random knot diagram model by assigning the crossings to be positive or negative uniformly at random. We give a formula for the probability of choosing a…
Graph transformations definable in logic can be described using the notion of transductions. By understanding transductions as a basic embedding mechanism, which captures the possibility of encoding one graph in another graph by means of…
Fibonacci cubes are induced subgraphs of hypercube graphs obtained by restricting the vertex set to those binary strings which do not contain consecutive 1s. This class of graphs has been studied extensively and generalized in many…
For the Kirillov-Poisson structure on the vector space $\g^*$, where $\g$ is a finite-dimensional Lie algebra, it is known at least two canonical deformations quantization of this structure: they are the M. Kontsevich universal formula [K],…
A special class of braids, called woven, is introduced and it is shown that every conjugation class of the braid group contains woven braids. In consequence, links can be presented as plats or closures of woven braids. Restricting on knots,…
The first part of the paper explains how to encode a one-cocycle and a two-cocycle on a group $G$ with values in its representation by networks of planar trivalent graphs with edges labelled by elements of $G$, elements of the…
Given a holomorphic regularisation procedure (e.g. Riesz or dimensional regularisation) on classical symbols, we define renormalised multiple integrals of radial classical symbols with linear constraints. To do so, we first prove the…
We enumerate factorisations of the complete graph into spanning regular graphs in several cases, including when the degrees of all the factors except for one or two are small. The resulting asymptotic behaviour is seen to generalise the…
We discuss Gubser-Klebanov-Polyakov proposal for the gauge/string theory correspondence for gauge theories in curved space. Specifically, we consider Klebanov-Tseytlin cascading gauge theory compactified on S^3. We explain regime when this…
We give a detailed explicit computation of weights of Kontsevich graphs which arise from connection and curvature terms within the globalization picture for the special case of symplectic manifolds. We will show how the weights for the…
In a recent work, Keusch proved the so-called 1-2-3 Conjecture, raised by Karo\'nski, {\L}uczak, and Thomason in 2004: for every connected graph different from $K_2$, we can assign labels~$1,2,3$ to the edges so that no two adjacent…
We introduce a matrix representation of a chord on a tangle which leads us to representing tangle chord diagrams as stacks of matrices that we call books. We show that band sum moves, Reidemeister moves as well as orientation changes are…
We compare quasi-graphs and generalized $\sin(1/x)$-type continua, which are two classes of continua that generalize topological graphs and contain the Warsaw circle as a nontrivial common element. We show that neither class is a subset of…
In this paper we use a contour integral method to derive a generating function in the form of a double series involving the product of two Chebyshev polynomials over generalized independent indices expressed in terms of the incomplete gamma…
