We prove that, except in some low-complexity cases, every locally injective simplicial map between pants graphs is induced by a $\pi_1$-injective embedding between the corresponding surfaces.

Simplicial surfaces describe the incidence relations between vertices, edges and faces of triangulated 2-dimensional manifolds in a purely combinatorial way. By considering only the incidences of edges and faces, simplicial surfaces are…

In this paper, we investigate a family of graphs associated to collections of arcs on surfaces. These {\it multiarc graphs} naturally interpolate between arc graphs and flip graphs, both well studied objects in low dimensional geometry and…

In this paper, we analyze embeddings of grid graphs on orientable surfaces. We determine the genus of a large class of k-dimensional grid graphs and effective two-sided bounds for the genus of any 3-dimensional grid graph, both in terms of…

We prove that circle graphs (intersection graphs of circle chords) can be embedded as intersection graphs of rays in the plane with polynomial-size bit complexity. We use this embedding to show that the global curve simplification problem…

We provide the first non-trivial examples of quasi-isometric embeddings between curve complexes. These are induced either by puncturing a closed surface or via orbifold coverings. As a corollary, we give new quasi-isometric embeddings…

This paper examines the relationship between the knotting of an embedded surface in $\R^3$ and the knotting of its fold curves, formed by the singular set of projection to a plane. The first result shows that every surface, no matter how…

The random graph is an infinite graph with the universal property that any embedding of $G-v$ extends to an embedding of $G$, for any finite graph. In this paper we show that this graph embeds in the curve graph of a surface $\Sigma$ if and…

Given a surface, the fine $k$-curve graph of the surface is a graph whose vertices are simple closed essential curves and whose edges connect curves that intersect in at most $k$ points. We note that the fine $k$-curve graph is hyperbolic…

In all possible cases, we prove that local embeddings between two curve complexes whose complexities do not increase from domain to codomain are induced by surface homeomorphism. This is our first main result. From this we can deduce our…

We generalize the natural duality of graphs embedded into a surface to a duality with respect to a subset of edges. The dual graph might be embedded into a different surface. We prove a relation between the signed Bollobas-Riordan…

In this paper, we consider the automorphisms of fine curve graphs restricted to continuously $k$-differentiable curves. We show that for closed surfaces with genus at least 2, they are induced by homeomorphisms of the surface.

For a graph embedded into a surface, we relate many combinatorial parameters of the cycle matroid of the graph and the bond matroid of the dual graph with the topological parameters of the embedding. This will give an expression of the…

We consider the problem of deciding whether an input graph G admits a topological embedding into a two-dimensional simplicial complex C. This problem includes, among others, the embeddability problem of a graph on a surface and the…

Let $S_{g,n}$ be an orientable surface of genus $g$ with $n$ punctures. We identify a finite rigid subgraph $X_{g,n}$ of the pants graph $\mathcal P (S_{g,n})$, that is, a subgraph with the property that any simplicial embedding of…

Let $N$ be a compact, connected, nonorientable surface of genus $g$ with $n$ boundary components, and $\mathcal{C}(N)$ be the complex of curves of $N$. Suppose that $g + n \leq 3$ or $g + n \geq 5$. If $\lambda : \mathcal{C}(N) \rightarrow…

Graph embeddings deal with injective maps from a given simple, undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ into a metric space, such as $\mathbb{R}^n$ with the Euclidean metric. This concept is widely studied in computer science, see \cite{ge1}, but also…
