Given a subset $\mathbf{S}=\{A_1, \dots, A_m\}$ of $\mathbb{S}^n$, the set of $n \times n$ real symmetric matrices, we define its {\it spectrahull} as the set $SH(\mathbf{S}) = \{p(X) \equiv (Tr(A_1 X), \dots, Tr(A_m X))^T : X \in…

We show that the union of $n$ translates of a convex body in $\mathbb{R}^3$ can have $\Theta(n^3)$ holes in the worst case, where a hole in a set $X$ is a connected component of $\mathbb{R}^3 \setminus X$. This refutes a 20-year-old…

We show that for every convex polyhedral sphere $P$ in $S^3$, there exist two canonical, non-edge-to-edge tilings of $S^{2}$ whose tiles are given by all the faces of $P$ and the dual convex polyhedral sphere $P^*$ to $P$. Under the…

We propose a cut-based algorithm for finding all vertices and all facets of the convex hull of all integer points of a polyhedron defined by a system of linear inequalities. Our algorithm DDM Cuts is based on the Gomory cuts and the dynamic…

A matrix convex set is a set of the form $\mathcal{S} = \cup_{n\geq 1}\mathcal{S}_n$ (where each $\mathcal{S}_n$ is a set of $d$-tuples of $n \times n$ matrices) that is invariant under UCP maps from $M_n$ to $M_k$ and under formation of…

A graph is hypohamiltonian if it is not Hamiltonian, but the deletion of any single vertex gives a Hamiltonian graph. Until now, the smallest known planar hypohamiltonian graph had 42 vertices, a result due to Araya and Wiener. That result…

The monostatic property of polyhedra (i.e. the property of having just one stable or unstable static equilibrium point) has been in a focus of research ever since Conway and Guy \cite{Conway} published the proof of the existence of the…

Indirect hex-dominant meshing methods rely on the detection of adjacent tetrahedra an algorithm that performs this identification and builds the set of all possible combinations of tetrahedral elements of an input mesh T into hexahedra,…

A set $S \subset \mathbb{Z}^d$ is digital convex if $conv(S) \cap \mathbb{Z}^d = S$, where $conv(S)$ denotes the convex hull of $S$. In this paper, we consider the algorithmic problem of testing whether a given set $S$ of $n$ lattice points…

For a vertex set $S\subseteq V(G)$ in a graph $G$, the {\em distance multiset}, $D(S)$, is the multiset of pairwise distances between vertices of $S$ in $G$. Two vertex sets are called {\em homometric} if their distance multisets are…

Given any digraph $D$ on $n$ vertices, let $\mathcal{P}(D)$ be the family of all directed paths in $D$, and let $H$ be a digraph with the arc set $A(H)=\{a_1, \ldots, a_k\}$. The digraph $D$ is called arbitrary Hamiltonian $H$-linked if for…

A Hamiltonian path in a digraph $D$ in which the initial vertex dominates the terminal vertex is called a Hamiltonian bypass. Let $D$ be a 2-strong digraph of order $p\geq 3$ and let $z$ be some vertex of $D$. Suppose that every vertex of…

We study the upward point-set embeddability of digraphs on one-sided convex point sets with at most 1 bend per edge. We provide an algorithm to compute a 1-bend upward point-set embedding of outerplanar $st$-digraphs on arbitrary one-sided…

A walk $W$ between vertices $u$ and $v$ of a graph $G$ is called a {\em tolled walk between $u$ and $v$} if $u$, as well as $v$, has exactly one neighbour in $W$. A set $S \subseteq V(G)$ is {\em toll convex} if the vertices contained in…

A polyhedron $\textbf{P} \subset \mathbb{R}^3$ has Rupert's property if a hole can be cut into it, such that a copy of $\textbf{P}$ can pass through this hole. There are several works investigating this property for some specific polyhedra:…

By a polygonization of a finite point set $S$ in the plane we understand a simple polygon having $S$ as the set of its vertices. Let $B$ and $R$ be sets of blue and red points, respectively, in the plane such that $B\cup R$ is in general…

A spherical set is called convex if for every pair of its points there is at least one minimal geodesic segment that joins these points and lies in the set. We prove that for n >= 3 a complete locally-convex (topological) immersion of a…

A pseudo-edge graph of a convex polyhedron K is a 3-connected embedded graph in K whose vertices coincide with those of K, whose edges are distance minimizing geodesics, and whose faces are convex. We construct a convex polyhedron K in…

Let $S$ be an arbitrary Riemann surface whose Teichm\"uller space $T(S)$ has dimension at least two. A long standing problem is to determine whether the Carath\'eodory metric $d_C$ agrees with the Teichm\"uller metric $d_T$ on $T(S)$. It…

Given a finite set of points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, Tverberg's theorem guarantees the existence of partitions of this set into parts whose convex hulls intersect. We introduce a graph structured on the family of Tverberg partitions of a given…
