In this article we describe an algorithm that can be applied for the generation of various classes of maps on orientable surfaces. It uses existing generators for abstract graphs and combines them with an efficient embedding and isomorphism…
We produce a family of complexes called trimming complexes and explore applications. We study how trimming complexes can be used to deduce the Betti table for the minimal free resolution of the ideal generated by subsets of a generating set…
This work serves as an opening and basis of an ongoing program investigating topological and geometric aspects of the moduli space of smooth fiberings on a manifold. The present paper focuses on the algebraic and differential topology of…
We introduce a method for obtaining new classes of free divisors from representations $V$ of connected linear algebraic groups $G$ where $\dim(G)=\dim(V)$, with $V$ having an open orbit. We give sufficient conditions that the complement of…
In this paper we give an explicit formula for the number of subgroups of the modular group of a given index that are genus zero and torsion-free and a formula for their conjugacy classes. We do so by exhibiting a correspondence between…
In this paper we describe a physical problem, based on electromagnetic fields, whose topological constraints are higher dimensional versions of Kirchhoff's laws, involving $2-$ simplicial complexes embedded in $\mathbb{R} ^3$ rather than…
In this paper we address the problem of computing $\text{deg}(f^n)$, the degrees of iterates of a birational map $f:\mathbb{P}^N\rightarrow\mathbb{P}^N$. For this goal, we develop a method based on two main ingredients: the factorization of…
The main objects under consideration in this thesis are called maps, a certain class of graphs embedded on surfaces. Our problems have a powerful relatively recent tool in common, the so-called topological recursion (TR) introduced by…
We obtain simple generating sets for various mapping class groups of a nonorientable surface with punctures and/or boundary. We also compute the abelianizations of these mapping class groups.
The set-theoretic large cardinal axiom known as I3 posits the existence of a non-trivial rank-to-rank embedding from an initial segment of the universe of sets into itself. Laver showed that the algebra generated by a single such embedding…
In [arXiv:1912.02063], we constructed 3-dimensional Topological Quantum Field Theories (TQFTs) using not necessarily semisimple modular categories. Here, we study projective representations of mapping class groups of surfaces defined by…
In a seminal paper, Stallings introduced folding of morphisms of graphs. One consequence of folding is the representation of finitely-generated subgroups of a finite-rank free group as immersions of finite graphs. Stallings's methods allow…
We show that mod $2$ cohomological invariants of the moduli stack $\mathscr{M}_{3,n}$ of smooth pointed curves of genus three contain a free module with generators in degree $0$, $2$, $3$, $4$ and $6$, formed by the invariants of the…
A generating function of the number of homomorphisms from the fundamental group of a compact oriented or non-orientable surface without boundary into a finite group is obtained in terms of an integral over a real group algebra. We calculate…
A well-known problem in Algebraic Combinatorics, is the enumeration of circulant graphs. The failure of Adam's Conjecture for such graphs with order containing a repeated prime, led researchers to investigate the problem using two different…
The first two authors classified subfactor planar algebra generated by a non-trivial 2-box subject to the condition that the dimension of 3-boxes is at most 12 in Part I; 13 in Part II of this series. They are the group planar algebra for…
We construct and study the tropical moduli space \(\mathcal{M}_3^{\mathrm{trop}}\) of degree-$3$ tropical rational maps \(\mathbb{T}\PP^1 \to \mathbb{T}\PP^1\) up to post-composition. Using a combinatorial description in terms of slope…
In this paper, we study the dualization in distributive lattices, a generalization of the well-known hypergraph dualization problem. We in particular propose equivalent formulations of the problem in terms of graphs, hypergraphs, and…
The subalgebra of the tautological ring of the moduli of curves of compact type generated by the kappa classes is studied in all genera. Relations, constructed via the virtual geometry of the moduli of stable quotients, are used to obtain…
A common feature of Coxeter groups and right-angled Artin groups is their solution to the word problem. Matthew Dyer introduced a class of groups, which we call Dyer groups, sharing this feature. This class includes, but is not limited to,…
