We study a counting version of Cycle Double Cover Conjecture. We discuss why it is more interesting to count circuits (i.e., graphs isomorphic to $C_k$ for some $k$) instead of cycles (graphs with all degrees even). We give an…

We study groups acting on CAT(0) square complexes. In particular we show if Y is a nonpositively curved (in the sense of A. D. Alexandrov) finite square complex and the vertex links of Y contain no simple loop consisting of five edges, then…

We construct families of cell complexes that generalize expander graphs. These families are called non-$k$-hyperfinite, generalizing the idea of a non-hyperfinite (NH) family of graphs. Roughly speaking, such a complex has the property that…

We introduce two new tools for studying CAT(0) spaces: \emph{curtains}, versions of cubical hyperplanes; and the \emph{curtain model}, a counterpart of the curve graph. These tools shed new light on CAT(0) spaces, allowing us to prove a…

We show that the sublinearly Morse boundary of a CAT(0) cubical group with a factor system is well-defined up to homeomorphism with respect to the visual topology. The key tool used in the proof is a new topology on sublinearly Morse…

We analyze the nonlinear optics of quasi one-dimensional quantum graphs and manipulate their topology and geometry to generate for the first time nonlinearities in a simple system approaching the fundamental limits of the first and second…

Quantum graphs have recently emerged as models of nonlinear optical, quantum confined systems with exquisite topological sensitivity and the potential for predicting structures with an intrinsic, off-resonance response approaching the…

In this note, we discuss and motivate the use of the terminology ``median graphs'' in place of ``CAT(0) cube complexes'' in geometric group theory.

C*-algebras generalizing Cuntz-Krieger algebras can be associated to hyperbolic homeomorphisms of compact metric spaces. They satisfy a non-commutative form of Spanier-Whitehead duality with respect to K-theory. We prove this for the case…

We construct a continuum of non-homeomorphic compact subspaces of the real line R without singleton components. Thus from the purely topological point of view the real line contains not only more closed sets than open sets but also more…

A connected graph is called \emph{geodetic} if there is a unique geodesic between each pair of vertices. In this paper we prove that if a finitely generated group admits a Cayley graph which is geodetic, then the group must be virtually…

We study Finsler PL spaces, that is simplicial complexes glued out of simplices cut off from some normed spaces. We are interested in the class of Finsler PL spaces featuring local uniqueness of geodesics (for complexes made of Euclidean…

We examine a graph $\Gamma$ encoding the intersection of hyperplane carriers in a CAT(0) cube complex $\widetilde X$. The main result is that $\Gamma$ is quasi-isometric to a tree. This implies that a group $G$ acting properly and…

We prove the removable singularity theorem for nonlocal minimal graphs. Specifically, we show that any nonlocal minimal graph in $\Omega \setminus K$, where $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is an open set and $K \subset \Omega$ is a compact…

We construct a finitely generated 2-dimensional group that acts properly on a locally finite CAT(0) cube complex but does not act properly on a finite dimensional CAT(0) cube complex.

In this note, we prove that finite CAT(0) cube complexes can be reconstructed from their boundary distances (computed in their 1-skeleta). This result was conjectured by Haslegrave, Scott, Tamitegama, and Tan (2023). The reconstruction of a…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finitely generated group of matrices over $\mathbb{C}$. We construct an isometric action of $\Gamma$ on a complete CAT(0) space $X$ such that the restriction of this action to any subgroup of $\Gamma$ containing no…

We introduce fibrewise compactifications in both the setting of locally compact Hausdorff spaces and continuous maps, and the parallel setting of $C^*$-algebras and nondegenerate multiplier-valued $*$-homomorphisms. In both situations, we…

A graph is locally chordal if each of its small-radius balls is chordal. In an earlier work [AKK25], the authors and Kobler proved that locally chordal graphs can be characterized by having chordal local covers, by forbidding short cycles…

We initiate the study of the $p$-local commensurability graph of a group, where $p$ is a prime. This graph has vertices consisting of all finite-index subgroups of a group, where an edge is drawn between $A$ and $B$ if $[A : A\cap B]$ and…
