We classify proper holomorphic mappings between generalized pseudoellipsoids of different dimensions. Those domains are parametrized by the exponents. The relations among them are also obtained. Main tool is the orthogonal decomposition of…
We report here a computation giving the complete list of facets for the cut polytopes over several very symmetric graphs with $15-30$ edges, including $K_8$, $K_{3,3,3}$, $K_{1,4,4}$, $K_{5,5}$, some other $K_{l,m}$, $K_{1,l,m}$, $Prism_7,…
The perfect matching polytope, i.e. the convex hull of (incidence vectors of) perfect matchings of a graph is used in many combinatorial algorithms. Kotzig, Lov\'asz and Plummer developed a decomposition theory for graphs with perfect…
The theta bodies of a polynomial ideal are a series of semidefinite programming relaxations of the convex hull of the real variety of the ideal. In this paper we construct the theta bodies of the vanishing ideal of cycles in a binary…
Graphs and hypergraphs combine expressive modeling power with algorithmic efficiency for a wide range of applications. Hedgegraphs generalize hypergraphs further by grouping hyperedges under a color/hedge. This allows hedgegraphs to model…
Fundamental to many applications in data analysis are the decompositions of a graph, i.e. partitions of the node set into component-inducing subsets. One way of encoding decompositions is by multicuts, the subsets of those edges that…
We study the set of all decompositions (clusterings) of a graph through its characterization as a set of lifted multicuts. This leads us to practically relevant insights related to the definition of a class of decompositions by must-join…
A level graph is the data of a pair $(G,\pi)$ consisting of a finite graph $G$ and an ordered partition $\pi$ on the set of vertices of $G$. To each level graph on $n$ vertices we associate a polytope in $\mathbb R^n$ called its residue…
In many applications involving binary variables, only pairwise dependence measures, such as correlations, are available. However, for multi-way tables involving more than two variables, these quantities do not uniquely determine the joint…
Li and Panigrahi, in recent work, obtained the first deterministic algorithm for the global minimum cut of a weighted undirected graph that runs in time $o(mn)$. They introduced an elegant and powerful technique to find isolating cuts for a…
Computing a graph prototype may constitute a core element for clustering or classification tasks. However, its computation is an NP-Hard problem, even for simple classes of graphs. In this paper, we propose an efficient approach based on…
Mirkovic and Vilonen discovered a canonical basis of algebraic cycles for the intersection homology of (the closures of the strata of) the loop Grassmannian. The moment map images of these varieties are a collection of polytopes, and they…
A simplicial polytope is a polytope with all its facets being combinatorially equivalent to simplices. We deal with the edge connectivity of the graphs of simplicial polytopes. We first establish that, for any $d\ge 3$, for any $d\ge 3$,…
This note wants to explain how to obtain meaningful pictures of (possibly high-dimensional) convex polytopes, triangulated manifolds, and other objects from the realm of geometric combinatorics such as tight spans of finite metric spaces…
Many statistical models are algebraic in that they are defined by polynomial constraints or by parameterizations that are polynomial or rational maps. This opens the door for tools from computational algebraic geometry. These tools can be…
Polytope complexes are the generalisation of polygon meshes in geo-information systems (GIS) to arbitrary dimension, and a natural concept for accessing spatio-temporal information. Complexes of each dimension have a straight-forward…
Polytopes are the basic finite data structures for convex sets: they appear as feasible regions in linear optimization, as geometric summaries in algorithms, and as random objects in stochastic geometry. A natural geometric question is…
Tree-width is an invaluable tool for computational problems on graphs. But often one would like to compute on other kinds of objects (e.g. decorated graphs or even algebraic structures) where there is no known tree-width analogue. Here we…
Expander decompositions of graphs have significantly advanced the understanding of many classical graph problems and led to numerous fundamental theoretical results. However, their adoption in practice has been hindered due to their…
