In a recent paper, we showed that every sufficiently large regular digraph G on n vertices whose degree is linear in n and which is a robust outexpander has a decomposition into edge-disjoint Hamilton cycles. The main consequence of this…

We show that the topological cycle space of a locally finite graph is a canonical quotient of the first singular homology group of its Freudenthal compactification, and we characterize the graphs for which the two coincide. We construct a…

It is shown that every connected vertex-transitive graph of order $6p$, where $p$ is a prime, contains a Hamilton path. Moreover, it is shown that, except for the truncation of the Petersen graph, every connected vertex-transitive graph of…

In a sequence of four papers, we prove the following results (via a unified approach) for all sufficiently large $n$: (i) [1-factorization conjecture] Suppose that $n$ is even and $D\geq 2\lceil n/4\rceil -1$. Then every $D$-regular graph…

Answering a question of Diestel, we develop a topological notion of gammoids in infinite graphs which, unlike traditional infinite gammoids, always define a matroid. As our main tool, we prove for any infinite graph $G$ with vertex sets $A$…

We determine the inducibility of all tournaments with at most $4$ vertices together with the extremal constructions. The $4$-vertex tournament containing an oriented $C_3$ and one source vertex has a particularly interesting extremal…

Suppose $G$ is a finitely generated infinite group, and $\mathcal G$ is a graph of groups decomposition of $G$ such that the edge groups are finite. This paper establishes that the topology of the Floyd boundary of $G$ is uniquely…

A multipartite tournament is an orientation of a complete $c$-partite graph. In [L. Volkmann, A remark on cycles through an arc in strongly connected multipartite tournaments, Appl. Math. Lett. 20 (2007) 1148--1150], Volkmann proved that a…

Let $H: \mathbb{R}^4 \to \mathbb{R}$ be any smooth function. This article introduces some arguments for extracting dynamical information about the Hamiltonian flow of $H$ from high-dimensional families of closed holomorphic curves. We work…

The theory of tournament limits and tournament kernels (often called graphons) is developed by extending common notions for finite tournaments to this setting; in particular we study transitivity and irreducibility of limits and kernels. We…

Let $\mathbf{G}=\{G_1, \ldots, G_m\}$ be a graph collection on a common vertex set $V$ of size $n$ such that $\delta(G_i) \geq (1+o(1))n/2$ for every $i \in [m]$. We show that $\mathbf{G}$ contains every Hamilton cycle pattern. That is, for…

A Hamilton cycle in a digraph is a cycle that passes through all the vertices, where all the arcs are oriented in the same direction. The problem of finding Hamilton cycles in directed graphs is well studied and is known to be hard. One of…

This paper concentrates on optical Hamiltonian systems of $T*\T^n$, i.e. those for which $\Hpp$ is a positive definite matrix, and their relationship with symplectic twist maps. We present theorems of decomposition by symplectic twist maps…

Our main result is to show that every infinite, countable, residually finite group $G$ admits a Hausdorff group topology which is neither discrete nor precompact.

A Walecki tournament is any tournament that can be formed by choosing an orientation for each of the Hamilton cycles in the Walecki decomposition of a complete graph on an odd number of vertices. In this paper, we show that if some arc in a…
