We generalize the main result of arXiv:2505.17960 and show the consistency of the statement ``There are exactly $n$ $Q$-points up to isomorphism" for any finite $n$. Furthermore, we show that the above statement for $n=2$ can alternatively…

The overview of the Exact Pairing technique based on the quasispin symmetry is presented. Extensions of this method are discussed in relation to mean field, quadrupole collectivity, electromagnetic transitions, and many-body level density.…

Is perfect matching in NC? That is, is there a deterministic fast parallel algorithm for it? This has been an outstanding open question in theoretical computer science for over three decades, ever since the discovery of RNC matching…

We propose a generalization of the classical stable marriage problem. In our model, the preferences on one side of the partition are given in terms of arbitrary binary relations, which need not be transitive nor acyclic. This generalization…

The classical 1991 result by Brightwell and Winkler states that the number of linear extensions of a poset is #P-complete. We extend this result to posets with certain restrictions. First, we prove that the number of linear extension for…

In the point set embeddability problem, we are given a plane graph $G$ with $n$ vertices and a point set $S$ with $n$ points. Now the goal is to answer the question whether there exists a straight-line drawing of $G$ such that each vertex…

Sumsets are central objects in additive combinatorics. In 2007, Granville asked whether one can efficiently recognize whether a given set $S$ is a sumset, i.e. whether there is a set $A$ such that $A+A=S$. Granville suggested an algorithm…

By a theorem of Drisko, any $2n-1$ matchings of size $n$ in a bipartite graph have a partial rainbow matching of size $n$. Inspired by discussion of Bar\'at, Gy\'arf\'as and S\'ark\"ozy, we conjecture that if $n$ is odd then the same is…

Point cloud completion aims to reconstruct complete 3D shapes from partial observations, which is a challenging problem due to severe occlusions and missing geometry. Despite recent advances in multimodal techniques that leverage…

Geometric embedding of graphs in a point set in the plane is a well known problem. In this paper, the complexity of a variant of this problem, where the point set is bounded by a simple polygon, is considered. Given a point set in the plane…

We show that if a multigraph $G$ with maximum edge-multiplicity of at most $\frac{\sqrt{n}}{\log^2 n}$, is edge-coloured by $n$ colours such that each colour class is a disjoint union of cliques with at least $2n + o(n)$ vertices, then it…

This paper examines number theoretic and topological properties of fully augmented pretzel link complements. In particular, we determine exactly when these link complements are arithmetic and exactly which are commensurable with one…

We study the stable matching problem in non-bipartite graphs with incomplete but strict preference lists, where the edges have weights and the goal is to compute a stable matching of minimum or maximum weight. This problem is known to be…

In this paper, we propose a novel method to precisely match two aerial images that were obtained in different environments via a two-stream deep network. By internally augmenting the target image, the network considers the two-stream with…

The aim of this note is to provide a reduction of the Exact Matching problem to the Top-$k$ Perfect Matching Problem. Together with earlier work by El Maalouly, this shows that the two problems are polynomial-time equivalent. The Exact…
