Let $n$ and $r$ be integers with $n-2\ge r\ge 3$. We prove that any $r$-uniform hypergraph $\mathcal{H}$ on $n$ vertices with spectral radius $\lambda(\mathcal{H}) > \binom{n-2}{r-1}$ must contain a Hamiltonian Berge cycle unless…

Let $F$ be a field. Following the resolution of Milnor's conjecture relating the graded Witt ring of $F$ to its mod-2 Milnor $K$-theory, a major problem in the theory of symmetric bilinear forms is to understand, for any positive integer…

Let $G$ be a discrete group generated by reflections in hyperbolic or Euclidean space, and $H\subset G$ be a finite index subgroup generated by reflections. Suppose that the fundamental chamber of $G$ is a finite volume polytope with $k$…

A linear matrix inequality (LMI) is a condition stating that a symmetric matrix whose entries are affine linear combinations of variables is positive semidefinite. Motivated by the fact that diagonal LMIs define polyhedra, the solution set…

We investigate the permutation modules associated to the set of $k$-dimensional faces of the hyperoctahedron in dimension $n$, denoted $H^{n}.$ For any $k\leq n$ such a module can be defined over an arbitrary field $F$, it is called a face…

Partial permutohedra are lattice polytopes which were recently introduced and studied by Heuer and Striker. For positive integers $m$ and $n$, the partial permutohedron $\mathcal{P}(m,n)$ is the convex hull of all vectors in…

Let $$ F(x, y) = \prod\limits_{k = 0}^{n - 1}(\delta_kx - \gamma_ky) $$ be a binary form of degree $n \geq 1$, with complex coefficients, written as a product of $n$ linear forms in $\mathbb C[x, y]$. Let $$ h_F = \prod\limits_{k = 0}^{n -…

Let $A,B \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d $ both span $\mathbb{R}^d$ such that $\langle a, b \rangle \in \{0,1\}$ holds for all $a \in A$, $b \in B$. We show that $ |A| \cdot |B| \le (d+1) 2^d $. This allows us to settle a conjecture by Bohn, Faenza,…

The Hilbert basis is fundamental in describing the structure of the integer points of a polyhedral cone. The face-centered cubic grid is one of the densest packing of the 3-dimensional space. The cycles of a grid satisfy the constraint set…

We study the existence of hamiltonian cycles in plane cubic graphs G having a facial 2-factor Q. Thus hamiltonicity in G is transformed into the existence of a (quasi) spanning tree of faces in the contraction G/Q. In particular, we study…

The classical permutohedron Perm is the convex hull of the points (w(1),...,w(n)) in R^n where w ranges over all permutations in the symmetric group. This polytope has many beautiful properties -- for example it provides a way to visualize…

We initiate a systematic study of non-planar on-shell diagrams in N=4 SYM and develop powerful technology for doing so. We introduce canonical variables generalizing face variables, which make the dlog form of the on-shell form explicit. We…

We study hyperbolic polyhedral surfaces with faces isometric to regular hyperbolic polygons satisfying that the total angles at vertices are at least $2\pi.$ The combinatorial information of these surfaces is shown to be identified with…

Properties of Hermitian forms are used to investigate several natural questions from CR Geometry. To each Hermitian symmetric polynomial we assign a Hermitian form. We study how the signature pairs of two Hermitian forms behave under the…

It is known that the $k$-faces of the permutohedron $\Pi_n$ are labeled by (all possible) linearly ordered partitions of the set $[n]=\{1,...,n\}$ into $(n-k)$ non-empty parts. The incidence relation corresponds to the refinement: a face…

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…

Let $K$ be a number field, ${\mathcal O}_K$ its ring of integers, and $f(x, y) \in {\mathcal O}_K[x, y]$ a binary form with integer coefficents. For any given prime $p \in {\mathcal O}_K$ we determine explicitly a binary form $g$ (resp.…

Faces play a central role in the combinatorial and computational aspects of polyhedra. In this paper, we present the first formalization of faces of polyhedra in the proof assistant Coq. This builds on the formalization of a library…

Skeletal polyhedra are discrete structures made up of finite, flat or skew, or infinite, helical or zigzag, polygons as faces, with two faces on each edge and a circular vertex-figure at each vertex. When a variant of Wythoff's construction…

The face numbers of simplicial complexes without missing faces of dimension larger than $i$ are studied. It is shown that among all such $(d-1)$-dimensional complexes with non-vanishing top homology, a certain polytopal sphere has the…
