A cubical polytope is a polytope with all its facets being combinatorially equivalent to cubes. We deal with the connectivity of the graphs of cubical polytopes. We first establish that, for any $d\ge 3$, the graph of a cubical $d$-polytope…
The flip graph is the graph whose nodes correspond to non-isomorphic combinatorial triangulations and whose edges connect pairs of triangulations that can be obtained one from the other by flipping a single edge. In this note we show that…
We unify and extend previous bijections on plane quadrangulations to bipartite and quasibipartite plane maps. Starting from a bipartite plane map with a distinguished edge and two distinguished corners (in the same face or in two different…
We prove that two virtual knots have equivalent intersection graphs if and only if they have the same writhe polynomial.
For each pair $(Q_i,Q_j)$ of reference points and each real number $r$ there is a unique hyperplane $h \perp Q_iQ_j$ such that $d(P,Q_i)^2 - d(P,Q_j)^2 = r$ for points $P$ in $h$. Take $n$ reference points in $d$-space and for each pair…
In this paper we establish a bridge between Topological Data Analysis and Geometric Deep Learning, adapting the topological theory of group equivariant non-expansive operators (GENEOs) to act on the space of all graphs weighted on vertices…
An $n$-Venn diagram is a certain collection of $n$ simple closed curves in the plane. They can be regarded as graphs where the points of intersection are vertices and the curve segments between points of intersection are edges. Every…
We introduce a higher-uniformity analogue of graphic zonotopes and permutohedra. Specifically, given a $(d+1)$-uniform hypergraph $H$, we define its hypergraphic zonotope $\mathcal{Z}_H$, and when $H$ is the complete $(d+1)$-uniform…
Let $P$ and $Q$ be finite point sets of the same cardinality in $\mathbb{R}^2$, each labelled from $1$ to $n$. Two noncrossing geometric graphs $G_P$ and $G_Q$ spanning $P$ and $Q$, respectively, are called compatible if for every face $f$…
Given any polar pair of convex bodies we study its conjugate face maps and we characterize conjugate faces of non-exposed faces in terms of normal cones. The analysis is carried out using the positive hull operator which defines lattice…
Topological drawings are natural representations of graphs in the plane, where vertices are represented by points, and edges by curves connecting the points. Topological drawings of complete graphs and of complete bipartite graphs have been…
We introduce fractional realizations of a graph degree sequence and a closely associated convex polytope. Simple graph realizations correspond to a subset of the vertices of this polytope. We describe properties of the polytope vertices and…
A non-zero component graph $G(\mathbb{V})$ associated to a finite vector space $\mathbb{V}$ is a graph whose vertices are non-zero vectors of $\mathbb{V}$ and two vertices are adjacent, if their corresponding vectors have at least one…
Let $\Phi$ be an irreducible crystallographic root system and $\mathcal P$ its root polytope, i.e., its convex hull. We provide a uniform construction, for all root types, of a triangulation of the facets of $\mathcal P$. We also prove…
The relation between discrete topological field theories on triangulations of two-dimensional manifolds and associative algebras was worked out recently. The starting point for this development was the graphical interpretation of the…
Mutual visibility in graphs provides a framework for analysing how vertices can observe one another along shortest paths free of internal obstructions. The visibility polynomial, which enumerates mutual-visibility sets of all orders, has…
The graph complex acts on the spaces of Poisson bi-vectors $P$ by infinitesimal symmetries. We prove that whenever a Poisson structure is homogeneous, i.e. $P = L_{\vec{V}}(P)$ w.r.t. the Lie derivative along some vector field $\vec{V}$,…
When the number of non-triangular faces adjacent to a vertex $v$ is less than or equal to three, the vertex $v$ will be called (\emph{combinatorially}) \emph{rigid}. We study the number of rigid vertices and suggest a conjecture on a…
This paper investigates the problem of listing faces of combinatorial polytopes, such as hypercubes, permutahedra, associahedra, and their generalizations. Firstly, we consider the face lattice, which is the inclusion order of all faces of…
An n-dimensional polytope P^n is called simple if exactly n codimension-one faces meet at each vertex. The lattice of faces of a simple polytope P^n with m codimension-one faces defines an arrangement of even-dimensional planes in R^{2m}.…
