We introduce polyhedral cones associated with $m$-hemimetrics on $n$ points, and, in particular, with $m$-hemimetrics coming from partitions of an $n$-set into $m+1$ blocks. We compute generators and facets of the cones for small values of…

The cut polytope of a graph arises in many fields. Although much is known about facets of the cut polytope of the complete graph, very little is known for general graphs. The study of Bell inequalities in quantum information science…

There are many fundamental algorithmic problems on triangulated 3-manifolds whose complexities are unknown. Here we study the problem of finding a taut angle structure on a 3-manifold triangulation, whose existence has implications for both…

A triangle decomposition of a graph is a partition of its edges into triangles. A fractional triangle decomposition of a graph is an assignment of a non-negative weight to each of its triangles such that the sum of the weights of the…

We consider the problem of partitioning the edge set of a graph $G$ into the minimum number $\tau(G)$ of edge-disjoint complete bipartite subgraphs. We show that for a random graph $G$ in $G(n,p)$, for $p$ is a constant no greater than…

We prove that every $n$-vertex complete simple topological graph generates at least $\Omega(n)$ pairwise disjoint $4$-faces. This improves upon a recent result by Hubard and Suk. As an immediate corollary, every $n$-vertex complete simple…

This study investigates the properties of the 3-token graph derived from path graphs, with a particular focus on its structural characteristics and key attributes. We analyze how the 3-token graph is constructed from path graphs and explore…

We give a generating function for the number of graphs with given numerical properties and prescribed weighted number of connected components. As an application, we give a generating function for the number of bipartite graphs of given…

Given a complete simple topological graph $G$, a $k$-face generated by $G$ is the open bounded region enclosed by the edges of a non-self-intersecting $k$-cycle in $G$. Interestingly, there are complete simple topological graphs with the…

We show that a veering triangulation $\tau$ specifies a face $\sigma$ of the Thurston norm ball of a closed three-manifold, and computes the Thurston norm in the cone over $\sigma$. Further, we show that $\tau$ collates exactly the taut…

We consider random topologies of surfaces generated by cubic interactions. Such surfaces arise in various contexts in 2-dimensional quantum gravity and as world-sheets in string theory. Our results are most conveniently expressed in terms…

Let $G$ be a complete graph with $n+1$ vertices. In a recent paper of the authors, it is shown that the path trees of the graph play a special role in the structure of the truncated powers and partition functions that are associated with…

We study triangle decompositions of graphs. We consider constructions of classes of graphs where every edge lies on a triangle and the addition of the minimum number of multiple edges between already adjacent vertices results in a strongly…

Tuza conjectured that for every graph $G$, the maximum size $\nu$ of a set of edge-disjoint triangles and minimum size $\tau$ of a set of edges meeting all triangles satisfy $\tau \leq 2\nu$. We consider an edge-weighted version of this…

We prove that for every complete multipartite graph $F$ there exist very dense graphs $G_n$ on $n$ vertices, namely with as many as ${n\choose 2}-cn$ edges for all $n$, for some constant $c=c(F)$, such that $G_n$ can be decomposed into…

We show, through local estimates and simulation, that if one constrains simple graphs by their densities $\varepsilon$ of edges and $\tau$ of triangles, then asymptotically (in the number of vertices) for over $95\%$ of the possible range…

We introduce a polynomial invariant $V_\tau \in \mathbb{Z}[H_1(M)/\text{torsion}]$ associated to a veering triangulation $\tau$ of a $3$-manifold $M$. In the special case where the triangulation is layered, i.e. comes from a fibration,…

In this paper, we consider the problem of representing graphs by triangles whose sides touch. As a simple necessary condition, we show that pairs of vertices must have a small common neighborhood. On the positive side, we present linear…

We consider the classical minimum and maximum cut problems: find a partition of vertices of a graph into two disjoint subsets that minimize or maximize the sum of the weights of edges with endpoints in different subsets. It is known that if…

Let $n\geq 3$ and $r_n$ be a $3$-polytopal graph such that for every $3\leq i\leq n$, $r_n$ has at least one vertex of degree $i$. We find the minimal vertex count for $r_n$. We then describe an algorithm to construct the graphs $r_n$. A…
