We study the vertices of the polytopes of all affine maps (a.k.a. hom-polytopes) between higher dimensional simplices, cubes, and crosspolytopes. Systematic study of general hom-polytopes was initiated in [3]. The study of such vertices is…

In this article we study the following question: What can be the measure of the minimal solid angle of a simplex in $\mathbb{R}^d$? We show that in dimensions three it is not greater than the solid angle of the regular simplex. And in…

Let G be a connected reductive complex algebraic group acting on a smooth complete complex algebraic variety X. We assume that X under the action of G is a regular embedding, a condition satisfied in particular by smooth toric varieties and…

We find all polyhedral graphs such that their complements are still polyhedral. These turn out to be all self-complementary.

We consider simplest piecewise flat manifold consisting of two identical 4-tetrahedra (call it bisimplex). General relativity action for arbitrary piecewise flat manifold can be expressed in terms of sum of the (half of) bisimplex actions.…

The associahedron is a convex polytope whose face poset is based on nonintersecting diagonals of a convex polygon. In this paper, given an arbitrary simple polygon P, we construct a polytopal complex analogous to the associahedron based on…

We prove that the vertex set of any twin-free multigraph G has an embedding into some point set P of some Euclidean space Rk, such that the automorphism group of G is isomorphic to the isometry group of Rk globally preserving P.

We prove that there are thirteen Archimedean/semiregular polyhedra by using Euler's polyhedral formula.

Eberhard-type theorems are statements about the realizability of a polytope (or more general polyhedral maps) given the valency of its vertices and sizes of its polygonal faces up to a linear linear degree of freedom. We present new…

We study pseudo-geometric strongly regular graphs whose second subconstituent with respect to a vertex is a cover of a strongly regular graph or a complete graph. By studying the structure of such graphs, we characterize all graphs…

We show that the group of type-preserving automorphisms of any irreducible semi-regular thick right-angled building is abstractly simple. When the building is locally finite, this gives a large family of compactly generated (abstractly)…

We address the unsolved problem of unfolding prismatoids in a new context, viewing a "topless prismatoid" as a convex patch---a polyhedral subset of the surface of a convex polyhedron homeomorphic to a disk. We show that several natural…

We say that a pure $d$-dimensional simplicial complex $\Delta$ on $n$ vertices is \emph{shelling completable} if $\Delta$ can be realized as the initial sequence of some shelling of $\Delta_{n-1}^{(d)}$, the $d$-skeleton of the…

We study oriented connected closed polyhedral surfaces with non-degenerate triangular faces in three-dimensional Euclidean space, calling them polyhedra for short. A polyhedron is called flexible if its spatial shape can be changed…

We consider a finite, connected and simple graph $\Gamma$ that admits a vertex-transitive group of automorphisms $G$. Under the assumption that, for all $x \in V(\Gamma)$, the local action $G_x^{\Gamma(x)}$ is the action of…

For $n\in \mathbb{N}$, a group is called $n$-coherent if every subgroup of type $\mathsf{F}_n$ is of type $\mathsf{F}_{n+1}$. For $n\ge 1$, we observe that graphs of groups with $n$-coherent vertex groups and virtually poly-cyclic edge…

In this paper we introduce squarefree vertex cover algebras. We study the question when these algebras coincide with the ordinary vertex cover algebras and when these algebras are standard graded. In this context we exhibit a duality…

We study $C^1$-regular surfaces in $R^3$ that admit tilings by a finite number of rigid motion congruence classes of tiles. We construct examples with various topologies and present a framework for a systematic study, mainly concentrating…

This paper presents a technique for constructing new chiral or regular polyhedra (or maps) from self-dual abstract chiral polytopes of rank 4. From improperly self-dual chiral polytopes we derive "Petrie-Coxeter-type" polyhedra (abstract…

Given a set of radii measured from a fixed point, the existence of a convex configuration with respect to the set of distinct radii in the two-dimensional case is proved when radii are distinct or repeated at most four points. However, we…
