We consider circle packings and, more generally, Delaunay circle patterns - arrangements of circles arising from a Delaunay decomposition of a finite set of points - on surfaces equipped with a complex projective structure. Motivated by a…

To push a vertex $v$ of a directed graph $\overrightarrow{G}$ is to change the orientations of all the arcs incident with $v$. An oriented graph is a directed graph without any cycle of length at most 2. An oriented clique is an oriented…

By adding or removing appropriate structures to Gauss diagram, one can create useful objects related to virtual links. In this paper few objects of this kind are studied: twisted virtual links generalizing virtual links; signed chord…

We define and study the link prediction problem in bipartite networks, specializing general link prediction algorithms to the bipartite case. In a graph, a link prediction function of two vertices denotes the similarity or proximity of the…

A virtual link can be understood as a link in a trivial I-bundle over an orientable compact surface with genus. A twisted virtual link is a link in a trivial I-bundle over a not-necessarily orientable compact surface. A twisted virtual…

It has been known for several decades that classical alternating links in the 3-sphere have nice hyperbolic geometric properties. Recent work generalises such results to give hyperbolic geometry of links with alternating projections onto…

We show that every quadrangulation of the sphere can be transformed into a $4$-cycle by deletions of degree-$2$ vertices and by $t$-contractions at degree-$3$ vertices. A $t$-contraction simultaneously contracts all incident edges at a…

Knot and link diagrams are projections of one or more 3-dimensional simple closed curves into $R^2$, such that no more than two points project to the same point in $R^2$. These diagrams are drawings of 4-regular plane multigraphs. Knots are…

A projection space is a collection of spaces interrelated by the combinatorics of projection onto tensor factors in a symmetric monoidal background category. Examples include classical configuration spaces, orbit configuration spaces, the…

The core group is an invariant of unoriented virtual links. We introduce a peripheral structure for the core group, in which the longitudes are sensitive to orientations. We show that the combination of the core group and its peripheral…

This paper constructs the geometrically natural objects which are associated with any projection tensor field on a manifold with any affine connection. The approaches to projection tensor fields which have been used in general relativity…

Virtual knot theory is a generalization of knot theory which is based on Gauss chord diagrams and link diagrams on closed oriented surfaces. A twisted knot is a generalization of a virtual knot, which corresponds to a link diagram on a…

We give a survey on projective ring lines and some of their substructures which in turn are more general than a projective line over a ring.

We develop a general theory for percolation in directed random networks with arbitrary two point correlations and bidirectional edges, that is, edges pointing in both directions simultaneously. These two ingredients alter the previously…

The projection onto the intersection of sets generally does not allow for a closed form even when the individual projection operators have explicit descriptions. In this work, we systematically analyze the projection onto the intersection…

The mechanics of an oriented point (point with "spin") based on 3D and 4D Frenet equations is considered. In such mechanics there is an opportunity to describe formally any physical trajectory of a particle with own rotation. We use…

An arrangement of pseudocircles $\mathcal{A}$ is a collection of Jordan curves in the plane that pairwise intersect (transversally) at exactly two points. How many non-equivalent links have $\mathcal{A}$ as their shadow? Motivated by this…

The primary objects of study in the ``knot theory of complex plane curves'' are C-links: links (or knots) cut out of a 3-sphere in the complex plane by complex plane transverse and totally tangential. Transverse C-links are naturally…

It is shown that every knot or link is the set of complex tangents of a 3-sphere smoothly embedded in the three-dimensional complex space. We show in fact that a one-dimensional submanifold of a closed orientable 3-manifold can be realised…

A compact classification of the projective lines defined over (commutative) rings (with unity) of all orders up to thirty-one is given. There are altogether sixty-five different types of them. For each type we introduce the total number of…
