In this paper we prove an inequality inspired by a conjecture of Brezis, which asks for a bound for the topological degree of a map from the circle to itself in terms of a nonlocal integral.

We describe an effective method for computing the topological degree of continuous functions $R:S^2 \to S^2$, where $S^2$ is the Riemann sphere. Our approach generalizes the degree formula for rational functions of complex polynomials,…
The program of understanding Shape Theory layer by layer topologically and geometrically -- proposed in Part I -- is now addressed for 4 points in 1-$d$. Topological shape space graphs are far more complex here, whereas metric shape spaces…

Given topological spaces X and Y, a fundamental problem of algebraic topology is understanding the structure of all continuous maps X -> Y . We consider a computational version, where X, Y are given as finite simplicial complexes, and the…
In [3] Borzellino and Brunsden started to develop an elementary differential topology theory for orbifolds. In this paper we carry on their project by defining a mapping degree for proper maps between orbifolds, which counts preimages of…
We find the complete rational homology for the finite subset spaces of a $d$-dimensional sphere. We also determine the integral homology in top $d$ degrees and obtain a partial description of it in codimension $d$.
We analyse an extremal question on the degrees of the link graphs of a finite regular graph, that is, the subgraphs induced by non-trivial spheres. We show that if $G$ is $d$-regular and connected but not complete then some link graph of…
The study of proper rational mappings between balls in complex Euclidean spaces naturally leads to the relationship between the degree and imbedding dimension of such a mapping. The special case for monomial mappings is equivalent to the…

We sharpen the constants in two degree inequalities for circle-valued Sobolev maps in degenerate regimes, as $p \to 1^+$ or $\delta \to 0^+$. The two proofs use the same power trick together with elementary estimates. The results answer two…
We propose an algorithm to estimate the topology of an embedded metric graph from a well-sampled finite subset of the underlying graph.
We present a new, systematic approach for analyzing network topologies. We first introduce the dK-series of probability distributions specifying all degree correlations within d-sized subgraphs of a given graph G. Increasing values of d…
The number of topologically different plane real algebraic curves of a given degree $d$ has the form $\exp(C d^2 + o(d^2))$. We determine the best available upper bound for the constant $C$. This bound follows from Arnold inequalities on…
