We study topological properties of random closed curves on an orientable surface $S$ of negative Euler characteristic. Letting $\gamma_{n}$ denote the conjugacy class of the $n^{th}$ step of a simple random walk on the Cayley graph driven…
A generic method for combinatorial constructions of intrinsic geometrical spaces is presented. It is based on the well known inverse sequences of finite graphs that determine (in the limit) topological spaces. If a pattern of the…
The classical approach to visualizing a flow, in terms of its streamlines, motivates a topological/soft-analytic argument for constrained variational equations. In its full generality, that argument provides an explicit formula for…
Based on recent work on simplicial diffeomorphisms in colored group field theories, we develop a representation of the colored Boulatov model, in which the GFT fields depend on variables associated to vertices of the associated simplicial…
Suppose that we have a finite colouring of the reals. What sumset-type structures can we hope to find in some colour class? One of our aims is to show that there is such a colouring for which no uncountable set has all of its pairwise sums…
We derive tight expressions for the maximum number of $k$-faces, $0\le{}k\le{}d-1$, of the Minkowski sum, $P_1\oplus{}P_2$, of two $d$-dimensional convex polytopes $P_1$ and $P_2$, as a function of the number of vertices of the polytopes.…
Motivated by applications in the medical sciences, we study finite chromatic sets in Euclidean space from a topological perspective. Based on the persistent homology for images, kernels and cokernels, we design provably stable homological…
A graph embedded in a surface with all faces of size 4 is known as a quadrangulation. We extend the definition of quadrangulation to higher dimensions, and prove that any graph G which embeds as a quadrangulation in the real projective…
Discrete d-manifolds are classes of finite simple graphs which can triangulate classical manifolds but which are defined entirely within graph theory. We show that the chromatic number X(G) of a discrete d-manifold G is sandwiched between…
Gy\'arf\'as famously showed that in every $r$-coloring of the edges of the complete graph $K_n$, there is a monochromatic connected component with at least $\frac{n}{r-1}$ vertices. A recent line of study by Conlon, Tyomkyn, and the second…
We compute some numerical invariants of the lines on hyperplane sections of a smooth cubic threefold over complex numbers. We also prove that for any smooth hypersurface $X\subset \mathbb P^{n+1}$ of degree $d$ over an algebraically closed…
The aim of this paper is to generalize the notion of the coloring complex of a graph to hypergraphs. We present three different interpretations of those complexes -- a purely combinatorial one and two geometric ones. It is shown, that most…
A major research area in discrete geometry is to consider the best way to partition the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$ under various quality criteria. In this paper we introduce a new type of space partitioning that is…
We study the topology of the space $\d\K^n$ of complete convex hypersurfaces of $\R^n$ which are homeomorphic to $\R^{n-1}$. In particular, using Minkowski sums, we construct a deformation retraction of $\d\K^n$ onto the Grassmannian space…
For a given integer $d\ge 1$, we consider $\binom{n+d-1}{d}$-color compositions of a positive integer $\nu$ for which each part of size $n$ admits $\binom{n+d-1}{d}$ colors. We give explicit formulas for the enumeration of such…
General rotational surfaces as a source of examples of surfaces in the four-dimensional Euclidean space have been introduced by C. Moore. In this paper we consider the analogue of these surfaces in the Minkowski 4-space. On the base of our…
We give a short, explicit proof of Hindman's Theorem that in every finite coloring of the integers, there is an infinite set all of whose finite sums have the same color. We give several exampls of colorings of the integers which do not…
In this paper we study the kaleidoscopic pseudo-randomness of finite Euclidean graphs using probabilistic methods. Roughly speaking, we show that sufficiently large subsets of d-dimensional vector spaces over finite fields contain every…
Kneser's 1955 conjecture -- proven by Lov\'asz in 1978 -- asserts that in any partition of the $k$-subsets of $\{1, 2, \dots, n\}$ into $n-2k-3$ parts, one part contains two disjoint sets. Schrijver showed that one can restrict to…
In 1970 Hajnal and Szemer\'edi proved a conjecture of Erd\"os that for a graph with maximum degree $\Delta$, there exists an equitable $\Delta+1$ coloring; that is a coloring where color class sizes differ by at most $1$. In 2007 Kierstand…
