In this paper, a construction of an infinite dimensional associative algebra, which will be called a \emph{Surface Algebra}, is associated in a "canonical" way to a dessin d'enfant, or more generally, a cellularly embedded graph in a…

In this paper, we focus on properties of dessins d'enfants associated to trigonal curves. Degtyarev studied dessins d'enfants to compute braid monodromies and fundamental groups of trigonal curves using their combinatorial data. We first…

The notion of a Galvin orientation of a line graph is introduced, generalizing the idea used by Galvin in his landmark proof of the list-edge-colouring conjecture for bipartite graphs. If L(G) has a proper Galvin orientation with respect to…

We introduce the notion of z-topological orderings for digraphs. We prove that given a digraph G on n vertices admitting a z-topological order- ing, together with such an ordering, one may count the number of subgraphs of G that at the same…

The discrete tensorial charges carried by orientifold planes define n-gerbes in space-time. The simplest way to ensure a consistent string compactification is to require these gerbes to be flat. This results in expressions for the local…

Let $G$ be a group. The directed endomorphism graph, $\dend(G)$ of $G$ is a directed graph with vertex set $G$ and there is a directed edge from the vertex $a$ to the vertex $b$ if $a \neq b$ and there exists an endomorphism on $G$ mapping…

We introduce a family of models, which we name matrix models associated with children's drawings -- the so-called dessin d'enfant. Dessins d'enfant are graphs of a special kind drawn on a closed connected orientable surface (in the sky).…

We are concerned with orderable groups and particularly those with orderings invariant not only under multiplication, but also under a given automorphism or family of automorphisms. Several applications to topology are given: we prove that…

The traditional Pi-theorem tells us that for any dimensionally invariant relation there exists a full set of independent dimensionless "Pi groups" which can be used to nondimensionalise the relation. In this paper, we seek to understand…

A topology is defined on the mapping class group of a compact connected orientable surface. It is shown that a notion of "genericity" on subsets of the mapping class group arises from this definition. Many plausible results follow from this…

We develop a new framework for analysing finite connected, oriented graphs of valency 4, which admit a vertex-transitive and edge-transitive group of automorphisms preserving the edge orientation. We identify a sub-family of "basic" graphs…

We characterize all permutations which realize as the $z$-monodromies of faces in connected simple finite graphs embedded in surfaces whose duals are also simple.

In this short note we use results from the theory of crystallizations to prove that color in group field theories garantees orientability of the piecewise linear pseudo-manifolds associated to each graph generated perturbatively. The origin…

We analyze unoriented Wess-Zumino-Witten models from a geometrical point of view. We show that the geometric interpretation of simple current crosscap states is as centre orientifold planes localized on conjugacy classes of the group…

In this paper, we study oriented bipartite graphs. In particular, we introduce "bitransitive" graphs. Several characterizations of bitransitive bitournaments are obtained. We show that bitransitive bitounaments are equivalent to acyclic…

Families of oriented lines in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ are studied via their identification with submanifolds of $T\mathbb{S}^n$. In particular, families of oriented lines which are orthogonal to submanifolds in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ are shown to…

Zonotopal algebras (external, central, and internal) of an undirected graph G introduced by Postnikov-Shapiro and Holtz-Ron, are finite-dimensional commutative graded algebras whose Hilbert series contain a wealth of combinatorial…

We develop a theory of minors for alternating dimaps --- orientably embedded digraphs where, at each vertex, the incident edges (taken in the order given by the embedding) are directed alternately into, and out of, the vertex. We show that…

We reinterpret ideas in Klein's paper on transformations of degree $11$ from the modern point of view of dessins d'enfants, and extend his results by considering dessins of type $(3,2,p)$ and degree $p$ or $p+1$, where $p$ is prime. In many…

An alternating dimap is an orientably embedded Eulerian directed graph where the edges incident with each vertex are directed inwards and outwards alternately. Three reduction operations for alternating dimaps were investigated by Farr. A…
