We define and construct mixed Hodge structures on real schematic homotopy types of complex projective varieties, giving mixed Hodge structures on their homotopy groups and pro-algebraic fundamental groups. We also show that these split on…
Flips of diagonals in colored triangle-free triangulations of a convex polygon are interpreted as moves between two adjacent chambers in a certain graphic hyperplane arrangement. Properties of geodesics in the associated flip graph are…
A convex polygon is defined as a sequence (V_0,...,V_{n-1}) of points on a plane such that the union of the edges [V_0,V_1],..., [V_{n-2},V_{n-1}], [V_{n-1},V_0] coincides with the boundary of the convex hull of the set of vertices…
Transversal structures (also known as regular edge labelings) are combinatorial structures defined over 4-connected plane triangulations with quadrangular outer-face. They have been intensively studied and used for many applications…
A matrix is given in ``shredded'' form if we are presented with the multiset of rows and the multiset of columns, but not told which row is which or which column is which. The matrix is reconstructible if it is uniquely determined by this…
We provide general formulae for the configurational exponents of an arbitrary polymer network connected to the surface of an arbitrary wedge of the two-dimensional plane, where the surface is allowed to assume a general mixture of boundary…
The structure and properties of a geometrically constrained magnetic wall in a constriction separating two wider regions are investigated theoretically. They are shown to differconsiderably from those of an unconstrained wall, so that the…
A skew Laurent polynomial ring R[x^{\pm 1};\alpha] is reversible if it has a reversing automorphism, that is, an automorphism of period two that transposes x and x^{-1} and restricts to an automorphism of R. We study invariants for…
A geometric approach to understanding recursion relations for scattering amplitudes is developed. We achieve this by studying intersection numbers of triangulated accordiohedra presented as hyperplane arrangements. The cancellation of…
We explore several families of flip-graphs, all related to polygons or punctured polygons. In particular, we consider the topological flip-graphs of once-punctured polygons which, in turn, contain all possible geometric flip-graphs of…
Given a set of disjoint simple polygons $\sigma_1, \ldots, \sigma_n$, of total complexity $N$, consider a convexification process that repeatedly replaces a polygon by its convex hull, and any two (by now convex) polygons that intersect by…
We study the existence of incompressible embeddings of surfaces into the genus two handlebody. We show that for every compact surface with boundary, orientable or not, there is an incompressible embedding of the surface into the genus two…
Recently, a new type of duality was reported in some deformable mechanical networks which exhibit Kramers-like degeneracy in phononic spectrum at the self-dual point. In this work, we clarify the origin of this duality and propose a design…
Polyominoes are a subset of polygons which can be constructed from integer-length squares fused at their edges. A system of polygons P is interlocked if no subset of the polygons in P can be removed arbitrarily far away from the rest. It is…
The structure of polymer networks, defined by chain lengths and connectivity patterns, fundamentally influences their bulk properties. While existing polymer network models connect chain properties to emergent network behavior, they are…
In this note a bijection is constructed between the set of partitions of n simultaneously s-regular and t-distinct, and those simultaneously t-regular and s-distinct. Some implications of the map are discussed. As a generalized version of…
Given a small polygon S, a big simple polygon B and a positive integer k, it is shown to be NP-hard to determine whether k copies of the small polygon (allowing translation and rotation) can be placed in the big polygon without overlap.…
We prove that, for any two polyhedral manifolds $\mathcal P,\mathcal Q$, there is a polyhedral manifold $\mathcal I$ such that $\mathcal P,\mathcal I$ share a common unfolding and $\mathcal I,\mathcal Q$ share a common unfolding. In other…
We consider here a generalization of a well known discrete dynamical system produced by the bisection of reflection angles that are constructed recursively between two lines in the Euclidean plane. It is shown that similar properties of…
We answer a number of open problems in frame theory concerning the decomposition of frames into linearly independent and/or spanning sets. We prove that in finite dimensional Hilbert spaces, Parseval frames with norms bounded away from 1…
