The vertex isoperimetric number of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is the minimum of the ratio $|\partial_{V}U|/|U|$ where $U$ ranges over all nonempty subsets of $V$ with $|U|/|V|\le u$ and $\partial_{V}U$ is the set of all vertices adjacent to $U$ but…
This note is about the geometry of the pants graph P(S), a natural simplicial graph associated to a finite type topological surface S where vertices represents pants decompositions. The main result in this note ascserts that for a…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of infinity branches as well as approaching curves. We present some properties which allow us to obtain an algorithm that compares the behavior of two implicitly defined algebraic plane curves at the…
Defining distances over finite fields formally by $||x-y||:=(x_1-y_1)^2+\cdots + (x_d-y_d)^2$ for $x,y\in \mathbb{F}_q^d$, distance problems naturally arise in analogy to those studied by Erd\H{o}s and Falconer in Euclidean space. Given a…
In the framework of homological characterizations of relative hyperbolicity, Groves and Manning posed the question of whether a simply connected $2$-complex $X$ with a linear homological isoperimetric inequality, a bound on the length of…
We prove that a graph has an infinitesimally rigid placement in a non-Euclidean normed plane if and only if it contains a $(2,2)$-tight spanning subgraph. The method uses an inductive construction based on generalised Henneberg moves and…
It is proved that every series-parallel digraph whose maximum vertex-degree is $\Delta$ admits an upward planar drawing with at most one bend per edge such that each edge segment has one of $\Delta$ distinct slopes. This is shown to be…
Sharp Lp affine isoperimetric inequalities are established for the entire class of Lp projection bodies and the entire class of Lp centroid bodies. These new inequalities strengthen the Lp Petty projection and the Lp Busemann--Petty…
We study the problem of half-domination sets of vertices in vertex transitive infinite graphs generated by regular or semi-regular tessellations of the plane. In some cases, the results obtained are sharp and in the rest, we show upper…
Motivated by the theory of graph limits, we introduce and study the convergence and limits of linear representations of finite groups over finite fields. The limit objects are infinite dimensional representations of free groups in…
For two vertex disjoint graphs $H$ and $F$, we use $H\cup F$ to denote the graph with vertex set $V(H)\cup V(F)$ and edge set $E(H)\cup E(F)$, and use $H+F$ to denote the graph with vertex set $V(H)\cup V(F)$ and edge set $E(H)\cup…
We prove that for every countable string graph $S$, there is a planar graph $G$ with $V(G)=V(S)$ such that \[ \frac{1}{23660800}d_S(u,v) \le d_G(u,v) \le 162 d_S(u,v) \] for all $u,v\in V(S)$, where $d_S(u,v)$, $d_G(u,v)$ denotes the…
The proper conflict-free chromatic number, $\chi_{pcf}(G)$, of a graph $G$ is the least $k$ such that $G$ has a proper $k$-coloring in which for each non-isolated vertex there is a color appearing exactly once among its neighbors. The…
The visibility graph Vis(X) of a discrete point set X in the plane has vertex set X and an edge xy for every two points x,y\in X whenever there is no other point in X on the line segment between x and y. We show that for every graph G,…
Let $G$ be a graph and let $g, f$ be nonnegative integer-valued functions defined on $V(G)$ such that $g(v) \le f(v)$ and $g(v) \equiv f(v) \pmod{2}$ for all $v \in V(G)$. A $(g,f)$-parity factor of $G$ is a spanning subgraph $H$ such that…
Cliquewidth is a dense analogue of treewidth. It can be deduced from recent results by Hickingbotham [arXiv:2501.10840] and Nguyen, Scott, and Seymour [arXiv:2501.09839] that graphs of bounded cliquewidth are quasi-isometric to graphs of…
We investigate the geometry of the graphs of nonseparating curves for surfaces of finite positive genus with potentially infinitely many punctures. This graph has infinite diameter and is known to be Gromov hyperbolic by work of the author.…
We establish a family of parametric isoperimetric-type inequalities with multiple geometric quantities for closed convex curves. These inequalities hold under certain parameter conditions. We also prove the equality conditions. Some new…
Consider a fixed connected, finite graph $\Gamma$ and equip its vertices with weights $p_i$ which are non-negative integers. We show that there is a finite number of possibilities for the coefficients of the canonical cycle of a numerically…
Let $X$ be a connected, locally finite graph with symmetric growth. We prove that there is a vertex coloring $\phi\colon X\to\{0,1\}$ and some $R\in\mathbb{N}$ such that every automorphism $f$ preserving $\phi$ is $R$-close to the identity…
