Two (real or complex) $m\times n$ matrices $A$ and $B$ are said to be parallel (resp. triangle equality attaining, or TEA in short) with respect to the spectral norm $\|\cdot\|$ if $\|A+ \mu B\| = \|A\| + \|B\|$ for some scalar $\mu$ with…
Tension-continuous (shortly TT) mappings are mappings between the edge sets of graphs. They generalize graph homomorphisms. From another perspective, tension-continuous mappings are dual to the notion of flow-continuous mappings and the…
The field of mathematical morphology offers well-studied techniques for image processing. In this work, we view morphological operations through the lens of persistent homology, a tool at the heart of the field of topological data analysis.…
In this paper we prove existence of matings between a large class of renormalizable cubic polynomials with one fixed critical point and another cubic polynomial having two fixed critical points. The resulting mating is a Newton map. Our…
This paper extends some results of Hatcher and Quinn beyond the metastable range. We give a bordism theoretic obstruction to deforming a map between manifolds simultaneously off of a collection of pairwise disjoint submanifolds under the…
The stable and unstable manifolds of an invariant set of a piecewise-smooth map are themselves piecewise-smooth. Consequently, as parameters of a piecewise-smooth map are varied, an invariant set can develop a homoclinic connection when its…
We show that every $n$-vertex planar graph admits a simultaneous embedding with no mapping and with fixed edges with any $(n/2)$-vertex planar graph. In order to achieve this result, we prove that every $n$-vertex plane graph has an induced…
Consider the self-map F of the space of real-valued test functions on the line which takes a test function f to the test function sending a real number x to f(f(x))-f(0). We show that F is discontinuous, although its restriction to the…
We prove the existence of lattice isomorphic line arrangements having $\pi_1$-equivalent or homotopy-equivalent complements and non homeomorphic embeddings in the complex projective plane. We also provide two explicit examples, one is…
A graph is said to be a segment graph if its vertices can be mapped to line segments in the plane such that two vertices have an edge between them if and only if their corresponding line segments intersect. Kratochv\'{i}l and Kub\v{e}na…
A planar point set is in convex position precisely when it has a convex polygonization, that is, a polygonization with maximum interior angle measure at most \pi. We can thus talk about the convexity of a set of points in terms of the…
In this paper, we address several interconnected problems in the theory of harmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds. First, we present necessary background and establish one of the main results of the paper: a criterion characterizing…
We investigate the problem of constructing planar drawings with few bends for two related problems, the partially embedded graph problem---to extend a straight-line planar drawing of a subgraph to a planar drawing of the whole graph---and…
Evenly convex sets in a topological vector space are defined as the intersection of a family of open half spaces. We introduce a generalization of this concept in the conditional framework and provide a generalized version of the bipolar…
Harmonic maps from $\BR^2$ or one-connected domain ${\O}\subset \BR^2$ into $GL(m, \BC)$ and $U(m)$ are treated. The GBDT version of the B\"acklund-Darboux transformation is applied to the case of the harmonic maps. A new general formula on…
We study criteria attesting that a given graph can not be embedded in the plane so that neighboring vertices are at unit distance apart and the straight line edges do not cross.
We study two decomposition problems in combinatorial geometry. The first part deals with the decomposition of multiple coverings of the plane. We say that a planar set is cover-decomposable if there is a constant m such that any m-fold…
A contractive condition is addressed for extended 2-cyclic self-mappings on the union of a finite number of subsets of a metric space which are allowed to have a finite number of successive images in the same subsets of its domain. It is…
We derive conditions for the existence of fixed points of cone mappings without assuming scalability of functions. Monotonicity and scalability are often inseparable in the literature in the context of searching for fixed points of…
In this paper, we present a constructive and proof-relevant development of graph theory, including the notion of maps, their faces, and maps of graphs embedded in the sphere, in homotopy type theory. This allows us to provide an elementary…
