In first-passage percolation (FPP), one places nonnegative random variables (weights) $(t_e)$ on the edges of a graph and studies the induced weighted graph metric. We consider FPP on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ for $d \geq 2$ and analyze the geometric…

This paper investigates self-maps T from X to X which satisfy a distance constraint in a metric space which mixed point-dependent non-expansive properties, or in particular contractive ones, and potentially expansive properties related to…

We introduce the class of outerspatial 2-complexes as the natural generalisation of the class of outerplanar graphs to three dimensions. Answering a question of O-joung Kwon, we prove that a locally 2-connected 2-complex is outerspatial if…

Parabolic (resp. hyperbolic) self-embeddings of trees are those which do not fix a non-empty finite subtree and preserve precisely one (resp. two) end(s). We prove that a locally finite tree having a parabolic self-embedding is mutually…

We investigate connections between the geometry of linear subspaces and the convergence of the alternating projection method for linear projections. The aim of this article is twofold: in the first part, we show that even in Euclidean…

Abstractly, tropical hyperelliptic curves are metric graphs that admit a two-to-one harmonic morphism to a tree. They also appear as embedded tropical curves in the plane arising from triangulations of polygons with all interior lattice…

It has long been known that the following basic objects are obstructions to bounded tree-width: for arbitrarily large $t$, $(1)$ the complete graph $K_t$, $(2)$ the complete bipartite graph $K_{t,t}$, $(3)$ a subdivision of the $(t \times…

We prove that the spanning trees of any outerplanar triangulation $G$ can be listed so that any two consecutive spanning trees differ in an exchange of two edges that share an end vertex. For outerplanar graphs $G$ with faces of arbitrary…

In this paper, we discuss matching extendability of optimal $1$-projective plane graphs (abbreviated as O1PPG), which are drawn on the projective plane $P^2$ so that every edge crosses another edge at most once, and has $n$ vertices and…

For a finitely generated group $G$, we introduce an asymmetric pseudometric on projectivized deformation spaces of $G$-trees, using stretching factors of $G$-equivariant Lipschitz maps, that generalizes the Lipschitz metric on Outer space…

For a geodesic ball with non-negative Ricci curvature and almost maximal volume, without using compactness argument, we construct an $\epsilon$-splitting map on a concentric geodesic ball with uniformly small radius. There are two new…

Motivated by the work of McCarthy and Papadopoulos for subgroups of mapping class groups, we construct domains of proper discontinuity in the compactified Outer space and in the projectivized space of geodesic currents for any "sufficiently…

We consider spanning trees of $n$ points in convex position whose edges are pairwise non-crossing. Applying a flip to such a tree consists in adding an edge and removing another so that the result is still a non-crossing spanning tree.…

We characterize geodesic paths in the $n$-dimensional unit sphere under sup norm. A geodesic path between two points is a shortest curve joining the two points.

Let $X$ be a geodesic metric space with $H_1(X)$ uniformly generated. If $X$ has asymptotic dimension one then $X$ is quasi-isometric to an unbounded tree. As a corollary, we show that the asymptotic dimension of the curve graph of a…

Projective connections arise from equivalence classes of affine connections under the reparametrization of geodesics. They may also be viewed as quotient systems of the classical geodesic equation. After studying the link between integrals…

Let $G$ be an undirected network with a distinguished set of terminals $T \subseteq V(G)$ and edge capacities $cap: E(G) \rightarrow \mathbb{R}_+$. By an odd $T$-walk we mean a walk in $G$ (with possible vertex and edge self-intersections)…

A notion of "radially monotone" cut paths is introduced as an effective choice for finding a non-overlapping edge-unfolding of a convex polyhedron. These paths have the property that the two sides of the cut avoid overlap locally as the cut…

Since the works of Howard and Newman (2001), it is known that in straight radial rooted trees, with probability 1, infinite paths all have an asymptotic direction and each asymptotic direction is reached by (at least) an infinite path.…

Regge poles connect the analytic structure of scattering amplitudes, analytically continued in spin, to the high-energy limit in momentum space. Dual models are expected to have only Regge poles, and string theory suggests there should be…
