We say that a (di)graph $G$ has a perfect $H$-packing if there exists a set of vertex-disjoint copies of $H$ which cover all the vertices in $G$. The seminal Hajnal--Szemer\'edi theorem characterises the minimum degree that ensures a graph…

Given two graphs, a mapping between their edge-sets is cycle-continuous, if the preimage of every cycle is a cycle. The motivation for this notion is Jaeger's conjecture that for every bridgeless graph there is a cycle-continuous mapping to…

Substituting each edge of a simple connected graph $G$ by a path of length 1 and $k$ paths of length 5 generates the $k$-hexagonal graph $H^k(G)$. Iterative graph $H^k_n(G)$ is produced when the preceding constructions are repeated $n$…

Extending the work of Godsil and others, we investigate the notion of the inverse of a graph (specifically, of bipartite graphs with a unique perfect matching). We provide a concise necessary and sufficient condition for the invertibility…

Let $\mathcal{X}$ be a tame proper Deligne-Mumford stack of the form $[M/G]$ where $M$ is a scheme and $G$ is an algebraic group. We prove that the stack $\mathcal{K}_{g,n}(\mathcal{X},d)$ of twisted stable maps is a quotient stack and can…

As in [5], we study holomorphic maps of positive degree between compact complex manifolds, and prove that any holomorphic map of degree one from a compact complex manifold to itself is biholomorphic. This conclusion confirms that under a…

In his celebrated paper "Generic projections", John Mather has shown that almost all linear projections from a submanifold of a vector space into a subspace are transverse with respect to a given modular submanifold. In this paper, an…

We develop a theory of quasimaps to a moduli space of sheaves $M$ on a surface $S$. Under some assumptions, we prove that moduli spaces of quasimaps are proper and carry a perfect obstruction theory. Moreover, they are naturally isomorphic…

Consider a smooth projective family of complex polarized manifolds with semi-ample canonical sheaf over a quasi-projective manifold $V$. When the associated moduli map $V\to P_h$ from the base to coarse moduli space is quasi-finite, we…

In an earlier paper the first two authors have shown that self-complementary graphs can always be oriented in such a way that the union of the oriented version and its isomorphically oriented complement gives a transitive tournament. We…

A hypermap is bipartite if its set of flags can be divided into two parts A and B so that both A and B are the union of vertices, and consecutive vertices around an edge or a face are contained in alternate parts. A bipartite hypermap is…

Let $\mathcal{G}$ be the class of all graphs with no induced four-edge path or four-edge antipath. Hayward and Nastos \cite{MS} conjectured that every prime graph in $\mathcal{G}$ not isomorphic to the cycle of length five is either a split…

We show a residues formula for maps generically transversal to regular holomorphic distributions.

Let $n$ be sufficiently large and suppose that $G$ is a digraph on $n$ vertices where every vertex has in- and outdegree at least $n/2$. We show that $G$ contains every orientation of a Hamilton cycle except, possibly, the antidirected one.…

We formulate a simple edge generation rule based on an inverse like mass action principle for random graphs over a structured vertex set. We show that under very weak assumptions on the structure generating distribution we obtain a scale…

We find new conditions that the existence of nullity of the curvature tensor of an irreducible homogeneous space $M=G/H$ imposes on the Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$ of $G$ and on the Lie algebra $\tilde{\mathfrak g}$ of the full isometry group…

We present a definable smooth version of the Thom transversality theorem. We show further that the set of non-transverse definable smooth maps is nowhere dense in the definable smooth topology. Finally, we prove a definable version of a…

Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic and let $X$ be an irreducible projective variety over $K$. Let $G\subseteq\text{Bir}(X)$ be a bounded-degree subgroup. We prove that there exists an irreducible projective…

The Hopf theorem states that homotopy classes of continuous maps from a closed connected oriented smooth $n$-manifold $M$ to the $n$-sphere are classified by their degree. Such a map is equivalent to a section of the trivial $n$-sphere…

Let M and \bar M be n-dimensional manifolds equipped with suitable Borel probability measures \rho and \bar\rho. Ma, Trudinger & Wang gave sufficient conditions on a transportation cost c \in C^4(M \times \bar M) to guarantee smoothness of…
