The Smith embedding of a finite planar map with two marked vertices, possibly with conductances on the edges, is a way of representing the map as a tiling of a finite cylinder by rectangles. In this embedding, each edge of the planar map…
A $triangulation$ is an embedding of a graph on surfaces where every face has length three. In this article, we show the existence of contractible Hamiltonian cycle in triangulated maps of which minimum degree is four.
We study the complexity of the Graph Isomorphism problem on graph classes that are characterized by a finite number of forbidden induced subgraphs, focusing mostly on the case of two forbidden subgraphs. We show hardness results and develop…
The paper studies Bernstein type inequalities for restrictions of holomorphic polynomials to graphs $\Gamma_f\subset\mathbb C^{n+m}$ of holomorphic maps $f:\mathbb C^n\rightarrow\mathbb C^m$. We establish general properties of exponents in…
We study the problem of embedding graphs in the plane as good geometric spanners. That is, for a graph $G$, the goal is to construct a straight-line drawing $\Gamma$ of $G$ in the plane such that, for any two vertices $u$ and $v$ of $G$,…
We prove a surface embedding theorem for 4-manifolds with good fundamental group in the presence of dual spheres, with no restriction on the normal bundles. The new obstruction is a Kervaire-Milnor invariant for surfaces and we give a…
We prove that random triangulations of high genus contain very large expander subgraphs, answering a question of Benjamini. Our approach relies on new general criteria for arbitrary graphs to contain large expander subgraphs.
We show that several types of graph drawing in the hyperbolic plane require features of the drawing to be separated from each other by sub-constant distances, distances so small that they can be accurately approximated by Euclidean…
In a book embedding, the vertices of a graph are placed on the spine of a book and the edges are assigned to pages, so that edges on the same page do not cross. In this paper, we prove that every $1$-planar graph (that is, a graph that can…
This is the first step of the two steps to enumerate the minimal charts with two crossings. For a label $m$ of a chart $\Gamma$ we denote by $\Gamma_m$ the union of all the edges of label $m$ and their vertices. For a minimal chart $\Gamma$…
We present a necessary and sufficient condition for existence of a contractible Hamiltonian Cycle in the edge graph of equivelar maps on surfaces. We also present an algorithm to construct such cycles. This is further generalized and shown…
We show that for most pairs of surfaces, there exists a finite subgraph of the flip graph of the first surface so that any injective homomorphism of this finite subgraph into the flip graph of the second surface can be extended uniquely to…
We look at generalized Delaunay graphs in the constrained setting by introducing line segments which the edges of the graph are not allowed to cross. Given an arbitrary convex shape $C$, a constrained Delaunay graph is constructed by adding…
We establish that every embedding of a Grassmann graph in a polar Grassmann graph can be reduced to an embedding in a Grassmann graph or to an embedding in the collinearity graph of a polar space. Also, we consider $3$-embeddings, i.e.…
We strengthen the connections between electrical transformations and homotopy from the planar setting---observed and studied since Steinitz---to arbitrary surfaces with punctures. As a result, we improve our earlier lower bound on the…
We study the problem of finding the minimal (maximal) genus for a surface where a given four-valent graph with fixed opposite edge structure can be embedded into. We find several partial relations and give new reformulations in…
We uncover the very rich graph topology of generic bounded non-Hermitian spectra, distinct from the topology of conventional band invariants and complex spectral winding. The graph configuration of complex spectra are characterized by the…
A connected graph $G$ with at least $2m+2n+2$ vertices is said to have property $E(m,n)$ if, for any two disjoint matchings $M$ and $N$ of size $m$ and $n$ respectively, $G$ has a perfect matching $F$ such that $M\subseteq F$ and $N\cap…
In this paper we study the problem of augmenting a planar graph such that it becomes 3-regular and remains planar. We show that it is NP-hard to decide whether such an augmentation exists. On the other hand, we give an efficient algorithm…
We prove that the joint embedding property is undecidable for hereditary graph classes, via a reduction from the tiling problem. The proof is then adapted to show the undecidability of the joint homomorphism property as well.
