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…

While every plane triangulation is colourable with three or four colours, Heawood showed that a plane triangulation is 3-colourable if and only if every vertex has even degree. In $d \geq 3$ dimensions, however, every $k \geq d+1$ may occur…

We study colored coverage and clustering problems. Here, we are given a colored point set where the points are covered by (unknown) $k$ clusters, which are monochromatic (i.e., all the points covered by the same cluster, have the same…

A conflict-free $k$-coloring of a graph $G=(V,E)$ assigns one of $k$ different colors to some of the vertices such that, for every vertex $v$, there is a color that is assigned to exactly one vertex among $v$ and $v$'s neighbors. Such…

Consider an urn model where at each step one of $q$ colors is sampled according to some probability distribution and a ball of that color is placed in an urn. The distribution of assigning balls to urns may depend on the color of the ball.…

We investigate plane curves intersecting in at most two unibranched points to study the algebraic exceptional set appearing in standard conjectures of diophantine and hyperbolic geometry. Our first result compares the local geometry of two…

We provide a strengthening of Jordan separation, to the setting of maps from a compact topological space X into a sphere, where the source space X is not necessarily a codimension one sphere, and the map is not necessarily injective.

The Hadwiger--Nelson problem is about determining the chromatic number of the plane (CNP), defined as the minimum number of colours needed to colour the plane so that no two points of distance 1 have the same colour. In this paper we…

We put forward a definition for spectral triples and algebraic backgrounds based on Jordan coordinate algebras. We also propose natural and gauge-invariant bosonic configuration spaces of fluctuated Dirac operators and compute them for…

A hypergraph is 2-intersecting if any two edges intersect in at least two vertices. Blais, Weinstein and Yoshida asked (as a first step to a more general problem) whether every 2-intersecting hypergraph has a vertex coloring with a constant…

Using fiber bundle theory and conformal mappings, we continuously select a point from the interior of Jordan domains in Riemannian surfaces. This selection can be made equivariant under isometries, and take on prescribed values such as the…

In this paper, we investigate the problem of separating a set $X$ of points in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$ with an arrangement of $K$ lines such that each cell contains an asymptotically equal number of points (up to a constant ratio). We consider a…

Given a matroid together with a coloring of its ground set, a subset of its elements is called rainbow colored if no two of its elements have the same color. We show that if a binary matroid of rank $r$ is colored with exactly $r$ colors,…

We study dynamic conflict-free colorings in the plane, where the goal is to maintain a conflict-free coloring (CF-coloring for short) under insertions and deletions. - First we consider CF-colorings of a set $S$ of unit squares with respect…

Consider the collection of edge bicolorings of a graph that is cellularly embedded on an orientable surface. In this work, we count the number of equivalence classes of such colorings under two relations: reversing colors around a face and…

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a pocategory, $FI(\mathcal{C})$ the finitary incidence ring of $\mathcal{C}$ and $\varphi$ a Jordan isomorphism of $FI(\mathcal{C})$ onto an associative ring $A$. We study the problem of decomposition of $\varphi$ into…

Arrangements of pseudolines are a widely studied generalization of line arrangements. They are defined as a finite family of infinite curves in the Euclidean plane, any two of which intersect at exactly one point. One can state various…

We study the bounded regions in a generic slice of the hyperplane arrangement in $\mathbb{R}^n$ consisting of the hyperplanes defined by $x_i$ and $x_i+x_j$. The bounded regions are in bijection with several classes of combinatorial…

Let $\Gamma$ be an arrangement of Jordan curves in the plane, i.e., simple closed curves in the plane. For any curve $\gamma \in \Gamma$, we denote the bounded region enclosed by $\gamma$ as $\tilde{\gamma}$. We say that $\Gamma$ is…

We consider the problem of morphing between contact representations of a plane graph. In an $\mathcal F$-contact representation of a plane graph $G$, vertices are realized by internally disjoint elements from a family $\mathcal F$ of…
