Two lattice points are visible to one another if there exist no other lattice points on the line segment connecting them. In this paper we study convex lattice polygons that contain a lattice point such that all other lattice points in the…
We focus our attention on well-covered graphs that are vertex decomposable. We show that for many known families of these vertex decomposable graphs, the set of shedding vertices forms a dominating set. We then construct three new infinite…
Consider a surface $\Sigma$ with punctures that serve as marked points and at least one marked point on each boundary component. We build a filling surface $\Sigma_n$ by singling out one of the boundary components and denoting by $n$ the…
We define a simple orthogonal polyhedron to be a three-dimensional polyhedron with the topology of a sphere in which three mutually-perpendicular edges meet at each vertex. By analogy to Steinitz's theorem characterizing the graphs of…
In this paper we introduce Yoke graphs, a family of flip graphs that generalizes several previously studied families of graphs: colored triangle free triangulations, arc permutations and caterpillars. Our main result is the computation of…
We show that for most pairs of surfaces, there exists a finite subgraph of the flip graph of the first surface so that any injective homomorphism of this finite subgraph into the flip graph of the second surface can be extended uniquely to…
The family of graphs of reduced words of a certain subcollection of permutations in the union $\cup_{n\geq 4}\frak{S}_{n}$ of symmetic groups is investigated. The subcollection is characterised by the hook cycle type $(n-2,1,1)$ with…
Polygons are described as almost-convex if their perimeter differs from the perimeter of their minimum bounding rectangle by twice their `concavity index', $m$. Such polygons are called \emph{$m$-convex} polygons and are characterised by…
We study the monodromies and the limit mixed Hodge structures of families of complete intersection varieties over a punctured disk in the complex plane. For this purpose, we express their motivic nearby fibers in terms of the geometric data…
Given a graph $ G $ with $ n $ vertices and a set $ S $ of $ n $ points in the plane, a point-set embedding of $ G $ on $ S $ is a planar drawing such that each vertex of $ G $ is mapped to a distinct point of $ S $. A straight-line…
The primary objective of this paper is to investigate the notions of geometric and sequential convexity within a graph-theoretic framework, with the aim of examining various structural properties and exploring the connection between these…
The disk graph of a handlebody H of genus g at least 2 with m marked points on the boundary is the graph whose vertices are isotopy classes of disks disjoint from the marked points and where two vertices are connected by an edge if they can…
Mirror graphs were introduced by Bre\v{s}ar et al. in 2004 as an intriguing class of graphs: vertex-transitive, isometrically embeddable into hypercubes, having a strong connection with regular maps and polytope structure. In this article…
In this work we consider triangulations of point sets in the Euclidean plane, i.e., maximal straight-line crossing-free graphs on a finite set of points. Given a triangulation of a point set, an edge flip is the operation of removing one…
We investigate a family of polytopes introduced by E.M.\ Feichtner, A.\ Postnikov and B.\ Sturmfels, which were named nestohedra. The vertices of these polytopes may intuitively be understood as constructions of hypergraphs. Limit cases in…
Given a surface $\Sigma$ equipped with a set $P$ of marked points, we consider the triangulations of $\Sigma$ with vertex set $P$. The flip-graph of $\Sigma$ whose vertices are these triangulations, and whose edges correspond to flipping…
A platypus graph is a non-hamiltonian graph for which every vertex-deleted subgraph is traceable. They are closely related to families of graphs satisfying interesting conditions regarding longest paths and longest cycles, for instance…
Symmetric edge polytopes are a recent and well-studied family of centrally symmetric polytopes arising from graphs. In this paper, we introduce a generalization of this family to arbitrary simplicial complexes. We show how topological…
Let $G$ be a finite group. The intersection graph of $G$ is a graph whose vertex set is the set of all proper non-trivial subgroups of $G$ and two distinct vertices $H$ and $K$ are adjacent if and only if $H\cap K \neq \{e\}$, where $e$ is…
We consider orbit partitions of groups of automorphisms for the symplectic graph and apply Godsil-McKay switching. As a result, we find four families of strongly regular graphs with the same parameters as the symplectic graphs, including…
