The Euler genus of a graph is a fundamental and well-studied parameter in graph theory and topology. Computing it has been shown to be NP-hard by [Thomassen '89 & '93], and it is known to be fixed-parameter tractable. However, the…

We study an old variational problem formulated by Euler as Proposition 53 of his `Scientia Navalis' by means of the direct method of the calculus of variations. Precisely, through relaxation arguments, we prove the existence of minimizers.…

We consider different generalizations of the Euler formula and discuss the properties of the associated trigonometric functions. The problem is analyzed from different points of view and it is shown that it can be formulated in a natural…

The Euler characteristic of a very affine variety encodes the algebraic complexity of solving likelihood (or scattering) equations on this variety. We study this quantity for the Grassmannian with $d$ hyperplane sections removed. We provide…
