Archdeacon, in his seminal paper $[1]$, defined the concept of Heffter array in order to provide explicit constructions of $\mathbb{Z}_{v}$-regular biembeddings of complete graphs $K_v$ into orientable surfaces. In this paper, we first…
In this paper we define a new class of partially filled arrays, called $\lambda$-fold relative Heffter arrays, that are a generalisation of the Heffter arrays introduced by Archdeacon in 2015. After showing the connection of this new…
Heffter arrays were introduced by Archdeacon in 2015 as an interesting link between combinatorial designs and topological graph theory. Since the initial paper on this topic, there has been a good deal of interest in Heffter arrays as well…
This article aims to provide exponential lower bounds on the number of non-isomorphic $k$-gonal biembeddings of the complete multipartite graph into orientable surfaces. For this purpose, we use the concept, introduced by Archdeacon in…
In 2015, Archdeacon introduced the notion of Heffter arrays and showed the connection between Heffter arrays and biembedding m-cycle and an n-cycle systems on a surface. In this paper we exploit this connection and prove that for every n >=…
A Heffter array is an m by n matrix with nonzero entries from Z_{2mn+1} such that i) every row and column sum to 0, and ii) no element from {x,-x} appears twice. We construct some Heffter arrays. These arrays are used to build current…
In this paper we define a new class of partially filled arrays, called relative Heffter arrays, that are a generalization of the Heffter arrays introduced by Archdeacon in 2015. Let $v=2nk+t$ be a positive integer, where $t$ divides $2nk$,…
Relative Heffter arrays, denoted by $\mathrm{H}_t(m,n; s,k)$, have been introduced as a generalization of the classical concept of Heffter array. A $\mathrm{H}_t(m,n; s,k)$ is an $m\times n$ partially filled array with elements in…
Square Heffter arrays are $n\times n$ arrays such that each row and each column contains $k$ filled cells, each row and column sum is divisible by $2nk+1$ and either $x$ or $-x$ appears in the array for each integer $1\leq x\leq nk$.…
In this paper we introduce a new class of partially filled arrays that, as Heffter arrays, are related to difference families, graph decompositions and biembeddings. A non-zero sum Heffter array $\mathrm{N}\mathrm{H}(m,n; h,k)$ is an $m…
A longstanding open question of Archdeacon and Craft asks whether every complete graph has a minimum genus embedding with at most one nontriangular face. We exhibit such an embedding for each complete graph except $K_8$, the complete graph…
Square relative non-zero sum Heffter arrays, denoted by $\mathrm{N}\mathrm{H}_t(n;k)$, have been introduced as a variant of the classical concept of Heffter array. An $\mathrm{N}\mathrm{H}_t(n; k)$ is an $n\times n$ partially filled array…
In this paper we will show the existence of a face $2$-colourable biembedding of the complete graph onto an orientable surface where each face is a cycle of a fixed length $k$, for infinitely many values of $k$. In particular, under certain…
Learning graph representations via low-dimensional embeddings that preserve relevant network properties is an important class of problems in machine learning. We here present a novel method to embed directed acyclic graphs. Following prior…
We construct an embedding G of the category of graphs into the category of abelian groups such that for graphs X and Y we have Hom(GX,GY)=Z[Hom(X,Y)], the free abelian group whose basis is the set Hom(X,Y). The isomorphism is functorial in…
A $(v,k;r)$ Heffter space is a resolvable $(v_r,b_k)$ configuration whose points form a half-set of an abelian group $G$ and whose blocks are all zero-sum in $G$. It was recently proved that there are infinitely many orders $v$ for which,…
Heffter arrays are combinatorial structures used to construct orthogonal cyclic cycle decompositions and biembeddings of complete graphs onto surfaces. A Heffter array $H(m,n;h,k)$ is an $m \times n$ partially filled array with distinct…
An embedding of a graph in a book, called book embedding, consists of a linear ordering of its vertices along the spine of the book and an assignment of its edges to the pages of the book, so that no two edges on the same page cross. The…
A Heffter array $H(n;k)$ is an $n\times n$ matrix such that each row and column contains $k$ filled cells, each row and column sum is divisible by $2nk+1$ and either $x$ or $-x$ appears in the array for each integer $1\leq x\leq nk$.…
This paper introduces a geometric representation of hypergraphs by representing hyperedges as simplices. Building on this framework, we employ homotopy groups to analyze the topological structure of hypergraphs embedded in high-dimensional…
