To investigate the topological structure of Morse flows on the 2-disk we use the planar graphs as destinguished graph of the flow. We assume, that the flow is transversal to the boundary of the 2-disk. We give a list of all planar graph…

We consider the incompressible two-dimensional Euler equation in the plane in the case when its initial vorticity is the characteristic function of a bounded open set. We show that the travel distance grows linearly for most of fluid…

A graph $G=(V,E)$ is a $k$-critical graph if $G$ is not $(k -1)$-colorable but $G-e$ is $(k-1)$-colorable for every $e\in E(G)$. In this paper, we construct a family of 4-critical planar graphs with $n$ vertices and $\frac{7n-13}{3}$ edges.…

Given a triangulation of a point set in the plane, a \emph{flip} deletes an edge $e$ whose removal leaves a convex quadrilateral, and replaces $e$ by the opposite diagonal of the quadrilateral. It is well known that any triangulation of a…

Given graphs $F$ and $G$, a perfect $F$-tiling in $G$ is a collection of vertex-disjoint copies of $F$ in $G$ that together cover all the vertices in $G$. The study of the minimum degree threshold forcing a perfect $F$-tiling in a graph $G$…

We provide a method to straighten each billiard trajectory in a flat disk. As an application, we show that for each point on the disk and for almost all directions, the closure of the corresponding billiard trajectory contains a vertex. We…

If an appropriate region of Kerr-Newman space-time is removed and suitable identifications are made, the resulting space-time can be interpreted as an infinitely thin disk producing the original electromagnetic and gravitational fields. We…

We develop a new numerical method for thin plates falling in inviscid fluid that allows for leading-edge vortex shedding. The inclusion of leading-edge shedding restores physical dynamics to vortex-sheet models of falling bodies, and for…

We adapt the Ozsv\'ath-Szab\'o full path algorithm to every star-shaped graph and establish a correspondence between negative-twisting tight contact structures on any Seifert fibred space over $S^2$, and its Heegaard Floer homology groups…

Directions of graphs were originally introduced in the study of a cops-and-robbers kind of game, while the study of end spaces has been used to generalize classical graph-theoretical results to infinite graphs, such as Halin's…

The interaction of charged particles, moving in a uniform magnetic field, with a plane-polarized gravitational wave is considered using the Fokker-Planck- Kolmogorov (FPK) approach. By using a stochasticity criterion, we determine the exact…

Hyperbolic inversive distance circle packings on the $2$-sphere correspond to Koebe polyhedra in the Beltrami-Klein model $\mathbb{B}^{3}$ of hyperbolic $3$-space. Koebe polyhedra are triangulated convex hyperbolic polyhedra with hyperideal…

A graph is $k$-gap-planar if it has a drawing in the plane such that every crossing can be charged to one of the two edges involved so that at most $k$ crossings are charged to each edge. We show this class of graphs has linear expansion.…

A classic theorem of Erd\H{o}s and P\'osa (1965) states that every graph has either $k$ vertex-disjoint cycles or a set of $O(k \log k)$ vertices meeting all its cycles. While the standard proof revolves around finding a large `frame' in…

A leaf matching operation on a graph consists of removing a vertex of degree~$1$ together with its neighbour from the graph. For $k\geq 0$, let $G$ be a $d$-regular cyclically $(d-1+2k)$-edge-connected graph of even order. We prove that for…
