Let $S\subseteq V(G)$ and $\kappa_{G}(S)$ denote the maximum number $r$ of edge-disjoint trees $T_1, T_2, \cdots, T_r$ in $G$ such that $V(T_i)\bigcap V(T_{j})=S$ for any $i, j \in \{1, 2, \cdots, r\}$ and $i\neq j$. For an integer $k$ with…
We give explicit formulas for torus-equivariant fundamental classes of closed $K$-orbits on the flag variety $G/B$ when $G$ is one of the classical groups $SL(n,\C)$, $SO(n,\C)$, or $Sp(2n,\C)$, and $K$ is a symmetric subgroup of $G$. We…
In a seminal paper, Erdos and Renyi identified the threshold for connectivity of the random graph G(n,p). In particular, they showed that if p >> log(n)/n then G(n,p) is almost always connected, and if p << log(n)/n then G(n,p) is almost…
For a given group $G$ the orientably regular maps with orientation-preserving automorphism group $G$ are used as the vertices of a graph $\O(G)$, with undirected and directed edges showing the effect of duality and hole operations on these…
A bicirculant is a regular, $d$-valent graph that admits a semiregular automorphism of order $m$ having two vertex-orbits of size $m$. The vertices of each orbit induce a circulant graph of order $m$ and the remaining edges span a regular…
We focus on the algorithm underlying the main result of [A. Mestre, R. Oeckl, Generating loop graphs via Hopf algebra in quantum field theory. J. Math. Phys., 47, 122302, 2006]. This is an algebraic formula to generate all connected graphs…
We study a family of Lie algebras {hO} which are defined for cyclic operads O. Using his graph homology theory, Kontsevich identified the homology of two of these Lie algebras (corresponding to the Lie and associative operads) with the…
We study cyclically presented groups of type $\mathfrak{F}$ to determine when they are perfect. It turns out that to do so, it is enough to consider the Prishchepov groups, so modulo a certain conjecture, we classify the perfect Prishchepov…
In this paper, a survey of the recent results about the classification of the connected holonomy groups of the Lorentzian manifolds is given. A simplification of the construction of the Lorentzian metrics with all possible connected…
We develop a general diagrammatic theory of welded graphs, and provide an extension of Satoh's Tube map from welded graphs to ribbon surface-links. As a topological application, we obtain a complete link-homotopy classification of so-called…
We study a class of two-generator two-relator groups, denoted $J_n(m,k)$, that arise in the study of relative asphericity as groups satisfying a transitional curvature condition. Particular instances of these groups occur in the literature…
Generalized Baumslag-Solitar groups (GBS groups) are groups that act on trees with infinite cyclic edge and vertex stabilizers. Such an action is described by a labeled graph (essentially, the quotient graph of groups). This paper addresses…
Given a knot $K$ we may construct a group $G_n(K)$ from the fundamental group of $K$ by adjoining an $n$th root of the meridian that commutes with the corresponding longitude. For $n\geq2$ these "generalised knot groups" determine $K$ up to…
Finite connected cubic symmetric graphs of girth 6 have been classified by K. Kutnar and D. Maru\v{s}i\v{c}, in particular, each of these graphs has an abelian automorphism group with two orbits on the vertex set. In this paper all cubic…
Among the classical models for interconnection networks are hypercubes and Fibonacci cubes. Fibonacci cubes are induced subgraphs of hypercubes obtained by restricting the vertex set to those binary strings which do not contain consecutive…
For every finite dimensional Lie group one can consider the group of all smooth loops on it, called its loop group. Such loop groups have long been studied for, among other reasons, their relations to conformal field theories and…
We propose a new method of computing cohomology groups of spaces of knots in $\R^n$, $n \ge 3$, based on the topology of configuration spaces and two-connected graphs, and calculate all such classes of order $\le 3.$ As a byproduct we…
In this paper we give a formula for the homotopy groups of $(n-1)$-connected $2n$-manifolds as a direct sum of homotopy groups of spheres in the case the $n^{th}$ Betti number is larger than $1$. We demonstrate that when the $n^{th}$ Betti…
An embedding of a graph on an orientable surface is orientably-regular (or rotary, in an equivalent terminology) if the group of orientation-preserving automorphisms of the embedding is transitive (and hence regular) on incident vertex-edge…
For a finite group $G$, we define the inclusion graph of subgroups of $G$, denoted by $\mathcal I(G)$, is a graph having all the proper subgroups of $G$ as its vertices and two distinct vertices $H$ and $K$ in $\mathcal I(G)$ are adjacent…
