We prove that if the Cayley graph of a finitely generated group enjoys the property L_delta then the group is almost convex and has a sub-cubic isoperimetric function.
A recent result of one of the authors says that every connected subcubic bipartite graph that is not isomorphic to the Heawood graph has at least one, and in fact a positive proportion of its eigenvalues in the interval [-1,1]. We construct…
We describe the quasi-isometric classification of fundamental groups of irreducible non-geometric 3-manifolds which do not have "too many" arithmetic hyperbolic geometric components, thus completing the quasi-isometric classification of…
The purpose of this paper is to develop a homotopical algebra for graphs, relevant to zeta series and spectra of finite graphs. More precisely, we define a Quillen model structure in a category of graphs (directed and possibly infinite,…
In the framework of homological characterizations of relative hyperbolicity, Groves and Manning posed the question of whether a simply connected $2$-complex $X$ with a linear homological isoperimetric inequality, a bound on the length of…
It is well known that 3--regular graphs with arbitrarily large girth exist. Three constructions are given that use the former to produce non-Hamiltonian 3--regular graphs without reducing the girth, thereby proving that such graphs with…
This paper proves the reconstruction conjecture for graphs which are isomorphic to the cube of a tree. The proof uses the reconstructibility of trees from their peripheral vertex deleted subgraphs. The main result follows from (i)…
Homeomorphism types of compression bodies form the vertices of a graph where two vertices are joined by an edge if one compression body is obtained by gluing a $2$-handle onto the other. Motivated by earlier work of Lackenby and Purcell on…
The aim of this article is to provide space level maps between configuration spaces of graphs that are predicted by algebraic manipulations of cellular chains. More explicitly, we consider edge contraction and half-edge deletion, and…
We classify the groups quasi-isometric to a group generated by finite-order elements within the class of one-ended hyperbolic groups which are not Fuchsian and whose JSJ decomposition over two-ended subgroups does not contain rigid vertex…
We study harmonic morphisms of graphs as a natural discrete analogue of holomorphic maps between Riemann surfaces. We formulate a graph-theoretic analogue of the classical Riemann-Hurwitz formula, study the functorial maps on Jacobians and…
The homology of Kontsevich's commutative graph complex parameterizes finite type invariants of odd dimensional manifolds. This {\it graph homology} is also the twisted homology of Outer Space modulo its boundary, so gives a nice point of…
Semispaces of a convexity space $(X,C)$ are maximal convex sets missing a point. The separation axiom $S_3$ asserts that any point $x_0\in X$ and any convex set $A$ not containing $x_0$ can be separated by complementary halfspaces (convex…
We investigate the computationally hard problem whether a random graph of finite average vertex degree has an extensively large $q$-regular subgraph, i.e., a subgraph with all vertices having degree equal to $q$. We reformulate this problem…
In this paper we study group actions on quasi-median graphs, or 'CAT(0) prism complexes', generalising the notion of CAT(0) cube complexes. We consider hyperplanes in a quasi-median graph $X$ and define the contact graph $\mathcal{C}X$ for…
We investigate the metric structure of the intersection lattice L(B(n,k)) of the discriminantal arrange ment using circuit supports. We show that the cover graph associated with L(B(n,k)) is isometrically embedded into a hypercube, making…
Quasi-isometries are mappings on graphs, with distance-distortions parameterized by a multiplicative factor and an additive constant. The distance-distortions of quasi-isometries are in a general form that captures a wide range of…
We prove that the saddle connection graph associated to any half-translation surface is 4-hyperbolic and uniformly quasi-isometric to the regular countably infinite-valent tree. Consequently, the saddle connection graph is not…
We examine a graph $\Gamma$ encoding the intersection of hyperplane carriers in a CAT(0) cube complex $\widetilde X$. The main result is that $\Gamma$ is quasi-isometric to a tree. This implies that a group $G$ acting properly 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…
