The so-called motorcycle graph has been employed in recent years for various purposes in the context of structured and aligned block decomposition of 2D shapes and 2-manifold surfaces. Applications are in the fields of surface…
A classification is given for (regular) positions of direct sums of two matroid algebras (unital algebraic limits of matrix algebras) in a matroid superalgebra, where the individual summands have index 2 in their associated corner algebra.…
Haj\'os conjecture asserts that a simple Eulerian graph on n vertices can be decomposed into at most (n - 1)/2 cycles. The conjecture is only proved for graph classes in which every element contains vertices of degree 2 or 4. We develop new…
Bicircular lift matroids are a class of matroids defined on the edge set of a graph. For a given graph $G$, the circuits of its bicircular lift matroid are the edge sets of those subgraphs of $G$ that contain at least two cycles, and are…
A small oriented cycle double cover (SOCDC)} of a bridgeless graph $G$ on $n$ vertices is a collection of at most $n-1$ directed cycles of the symmetric orientation, $G_s$, of $G$ such that each edge of $G_s$ lies in exactly one of the…
A graph \textit{G} is a tuple (\textit{V}, \textit{E}), where \textit{V} is the vertex set, \textit{E} is the edge set. A reduced graph is a graph of deleting non-Hamiltonian edges and smoothing out the redundant vertices of degree 2 on an…
The modular decomposition of a graph is a canonical representation of its modules. Algorithms for computing the modular decomposition of directed and undirected graphs differ significantly, with the undirected case being simpler, and…
A Hamiltonian embedding is an embedding of a graph $G$ such that the boundary of each face is a Hamiltonian cycle of $G$. It is shown that the hypercube graph $Q_n$ admits such an embedding on an orientable surface when $n$ is a power of 2.…
This is the second in a series of papers on rank decompositions of the matrix multiplication tensor. We present new rank $23$ decompositions for the $3\times 3$ matrix multiplication tensor $M_{\langle 3\rangle}$. All our decompositions…
A recent line of research has concentrated on exploring the links between analytic and combinatorial theories of submodularity, uncovering several key connections between them. In this context, Lov\'asz initiated the study of matroids from…
In this paper we discuss gauging one-form symmetries in two-dimensional theories. The existence of a global one-form symmetry in two dimensions typically signals a violation of cluster decomposition -- an issue resolved by the observation…
Geometric modeling by constraints leads to large systems of algebraic equations. This paper studies bipartite graphs underlaid by systems of equations. It shows how these graphs make possible to polynomially decompose these systems into…
In this paper we discuss the problem of decomposition for unbounded $2\times 2$ operator matrices by a pair of complementary invariant graph subspaces. Under mild additional assumptions, we show that such a pair of subspaces decomposes the…
A frame matroid M is graphic if there is a graph G with cycle matroid isomorphic to M. In general, if there is one such graph, there will be many. Zaslavsky has shown that frame matroids are precisely those having a representation as a…
Motivated by longstanding conjectures regarding decompositions of graphs into paths and cycles, we prove the following optimal decomposition results for random graphs. Let $0<p<1$ be constant and let $G\sim G_{n,p}$. Let $odd(G)$ be the…
We specify what is meant for a polytope to be reconstructible from its graph or dual graph. And we introduce the problem of class reconstructibility, i.e., the face lattice of the polytope can be determined from the (dual) graph within a…
We prove that the number of symmetric chain decompositions of the Boolean lattice $2^{[n]}$ is $$\left(\frac{n}{2e}+o(n)\right)^{2^n}.$$ Furthermore, the number of symmetric chain decompositions of the hypergrid $[t]^n$ is…
We analyse the normal quotient structure of several infinite families of finite connected edge-transitive, four-valent oriented graphs. These families were singled out by Marusic and others to illustrate various different internal…
We study operators on rooted graphs with a certain spherical homogeneity. These graphs are called path commuting and allow for a decomposition of the adjacency matrix and the Laplacian into a direct sum of Jacobi matrices which reflect the…
A seminal result by Whitney describes when two graphs have the same cycles. We consider the analogous problem for even cycle matroids. A representation of an even cycle matroid is a pair formed by a graph together with a special set of…
