Symmetric edge polytopes of graphs are important object in Ehrhart theory,and have an application to Kuramoto models. In the present paper, we study the upper and lower bounds for the number of facets of symmetric edge polytopes of…
Given any finite graph, we offer a simple realization of the graph-associahedron polytope using integer coordinates.
We prove that a compact simply connected manifold $M$ with a variationally complete $G$-action satisfying certain mild conditions (e.g. trivial principal isotropy, or simply connected principal orbits) is rationally elliptic if and only if…
We determine for which $m$, the complete graph $K_m$ has an embedding in $S^3$ whose topological symmetry group is isomorphic to one of the polyhedral groups: $A_4$, $A_5$, or $S_4$.
A renowned theorem of Blind and Mani, with a constructive proof by Kalai and an efficiency proof by Friedman, shows that the whole face lattice of a simple polytope can be determined from its graph. This is part of a broader story of…
The matching complex $\mathsf{M}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is a simplicial complex whose simplices are matchings in $G$. These complexes appear in various places and found applications in many areas of mathematics including computational geometry,…
The Total Matching Polytope generalizes the Stable Set Polytope and the Matching Polytope. In this paper, we give the perfect formulation for Trees and we derive two new families of valid inequalities, the balanced biclique inequalities…
Let (M, {\pi} ) be a Poisson manifold. A Poisson submanifold $P \in M$ gives rise to an algebroid $AP \rightarrow P$, to which we associate certain chomology groups which control formal deformations of {\pi} around P . Assuming that these…
We show that the eigenpolytopes of graphs are universal in the sense that every polytope, up to affine equivalence, appears as the eigenpolytope of some positively weighted graph. We next extend the theory of graphical designs, which are…
We define treetopes, a generalization of the three-dimensional roofless polyhedra (Halin graphs) to arbitrary dimensions. Like roofless polyhedra, treetopes have a designated base facet such that every face of dimension greater than one…
The face numbers of simplicial complexes without missing faces of dimension larger than $i$ are studied. It is shown that among all such $(d-1)$-dimensional complexes with non-vanishing top homology, a certain polytopal sphere has the…
A $\textit{regular polygon surface}$ $M$ is a surface graph $(\Sigma, \Gamma)$ together with a continuous map $\psi$ from $\Sigma$ into Euclidean 3-space which maps faces to regular Euclidean polygons. When $\Sigma$ is homeomorphic to the…
We show that the independence complexes of generalised Mycielskian of complete graphs are homotopy equivalent to a wedge sum of spheres, and determine the number of copies and the dimensions of these spheres. We also prove that the…
The deck of a graph $X$, $D(X)$, is defined as the multiset of all vertex-deleted subgraphs of $X$. Two graphs are said to be hypomorphic, if they have the same deck. Kelly-Ulam conjecture states that any two hypomorphic graphs on at least…
Let $F_G(P)$ be a functional defined on the set of all the probability distributions on the vertex set of a graph $G$. We say that $G$ is \emph{symmetric with respect to $F_G(P)$} if the uniform distribution on $V(G)$ maximizes $F_G(P)$.…
In this article, we define a family of regular bipartite graphs and show that the homotopy type of the independence complexes of this family is the wedge sum of spheres of certain dimensions.
It has been shown that the edge structure of the characteristic imset polytope is closely connected to the question of causal discovery. The diameter of a polytope is an indicator of how connected the polytope is and moreover gives us a…
Starting from any finite simple graph, one can build a reflexive polytope known as a symmetric edge polytope. The first goal of this paper is to show that symmetric edge polytopes are intrinsically matroidal objects: more precisely, we…
A flag positroid of ranks $\boldsymbol{r}:=(r_1<\dots <r_k)$ on $[n]$ is a flag matroid that can be realized by a real $r_k \times n$ matrix $A$ such that the $r_i \times r_i$ minors of $A$ involving rows $1,2,\dots,r_i$ are nonnegative for…
We consider a set of cliques in any multipartite graph with two vertices in each part. Moreover, we construct a class of peculiar polytopes. Key words: multipartite graph, clique, polytope.
