Determining whether two graphs are structurally identical is a fundamental problem with applications spanning mathematics, computer science, chemistry, and network science. Despite decades of study, graph isomorphism remains a challenging…

A drawing of a graph $G$ is radial if the vertices of $G$ are placed on concentric circles $C_1, \ldots, C_k$ with common center $c$, and edges are drawn radially: every edge intersects every circle centered at $c$ at most once. $G$ is…

We prove that every 1-planar graph G has a z-parallel visibility representation, i.e., a 3D visibility representation in which the vertices are isothetic disjoint rectangles parallel to the xy-plane, and the edges are unobstructed…

We introduce a simple combinatorial way, which we call a rectangular diagram of a surface, to represent a surface in the three-sphere. It has a particularly nice relation to the standard contact structure on $\mathbb S^3$ and to rectangular…

The crossing number of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of crossings in a drawing of $G$ in the plane. A rectilinear drawing of a graph $G$ represents vertices of $G$ by a set of points in the plane and represents each edge of $G$ by a…

Given a reflection group $G$ acting on a complex vector space $V$, a reflection map is the composition of an embedding $X \hookrightarrow V$ with the orbit map $V\to\mathbb C^p$ that maps a $G$-orbit to a point. Reflection maps can be very…

Rotary maps (orientably regular maps) are highly symmetric graph embeddings on orientable surfaces. This paper classifies all rotary maps whose underlying graphs are Praeger-Xu graphs, denoted $\operatorname{C}(p,r,s)$, for any odd prime…

Let $k \geq 1$ be an integer. The reconfiguration graph $R_k(G)$ of the $k$-colourings of a graph~$G$ has as vertex set the set of all possible $k$-colourings of $G$ and two colourings are adjacent if they differ on exactly one vertex. A…

This paper considers *-graphs in which all vertices have degree 4 or 6, and studies the question of calculating the genus of orientable 2-surfaces into which such graphs may be embedded. A *-graph is a graph endowed with a formal adjacency…

We present simpler algorithms for two closely related morphing problems, both based on the barycentric interpolation paradigm introduced by Floater and Gotsman, which is in turn based on Floater's asymmetric extension of Tutte's classical…

An arrangement of circles in which circles intersect only in angles of $\pi/2$ is called an \emph{arrangement of orthogonal circles}. We show that in the case that no two circles are nested, the intersection graph of such an arrangement is…

The focus of this article is to develop computationally efficient mathematical morphology operators on hypergraphs. To this aim we consider lattice structures on hypergraphs on which we build morphological operators. We develop a pair of…

Any planar graph has a crossing-free straight-line drawing in the plane. A simultaneous geometric embedding of two n-vertex graphs is a straight-line drawing of both graphs on a common set of n points, such that the edges withing each…

Using a notation of corner between edges when graph has a fixed rotation, i.e. cyclical order of edges around vertices, we define combinatorial objects - combinatorial maps as pairs of permutations, one for vertices and one for faces.…

Let $V$ be a left $R$-module where $R$ is a (not necessarily commutative) ring with unit. The intersection graph $\cG(V)$ of proper $R$-submodules of $V$ is an undirected graph without loops and multiple edges defined as follows: the vertex…

In Gurau and Keppler 2022 (arXiv:2207.01993), a relation between orthogonal and symplectic tensor models with quartic interactions was proven. In this paper, we provide an alternative proof that extends to polynomial interactions of…

We consider the problem of simultaneous embedding of planar graphs. There are two variants of this problem, one in which the mapping between the vertices of the two graphs is given and another where the mapping is not given. In particular,…

We define a class of maps between holomorphically embedded null curves which generalize conformal transformations, and can be defined in any complex dimension. In four dimensions, we can also define a similar map between self-dual surfaces,…

We consider the Vertex Cover problem in intersection graphs of axis-parallel rectangles on the plane. We present two algorithms: The first is an EPTAS for non-crossing rectangle families, rectangle families $\calR$ where $R_1 \setminus R_2$…

We consider the problem of determining if a pair of undirected graphs $\langle G_\mathsf{V}, G_\mathsf{H} \rangle$, which share the same vertex set, has a representation using opaque geometric shapes for vertices, and vertical/horizontal…
