For any compact, connected, orientable, finite-type surface with marked points other than the sphere with three marked points, we construct a finite rigid set of its arc complex: a finite simplicial subcomplex of its arc complex such that…
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…
In this paper, we investigate a family of graphs associated to collections of arcs on surfaces. These {\it multiarc graphs} naturally interpolate between arc graphs and flip graphs, both well studied objects in low dimensional geometry and…
We associate to triangulations of infinite type surface a type of flip graph where simultaneous flips are allowed. Our main focus is on understanding exactly when two triangulations can be related by a sequence of flips. A consequence of…
We establish rigidity results for holomorphic mappings and plurisubharmonic functions in complex geometry. First, under mild conditions, we show that the gradient of a $\operatorname{U}(1)$-invariant strictly plurisubharmonic function in…
A subcomplex $X\leq \mathcal{C}$ of a simplicial complex is strongly rigid if every locally injective, simplicial map $X\to\mathcal{C}$ is the restriction of a unique automorphism of $\mathcal{C}$. Aramayona and the second author proved…
Graphs triangulating the $2$-sphere are generically rigid in $3$-space, due to Gluck-Dehn-Alexandrov-Cauchy. We show there is a \emph{finite} subset $A$ in $3$-space so that the vertices of each graph $G$ as above can be mapped into $A$ to…
This paper is about the geometry of flip-graphs associated to triangulations of surfaces. More precisely, we consider a topological surface with a privileged boundary curve and study the spaces of its triangulations with n vertices on the…
Given a drawing of a graph, its \emph{visual complexity} is defined as the number of geometrical entities in the drawing, for example, the number of segments in a straight-line drawing or the number of arcs in a circular-arc drawing (in…
Let $G$ be a group. The \emph{power graph} of $G$ is a graph with the vertex set $G$, having an edge between two elements whenever one is a power of the other. We characterize nilpotent groups whose power graphs have finite independence…
We investigate the structure of conformally rigid graphs. Graphs are conformally rigid if introducing edge weights cannot increase (decrease) the second (last) eigenvalue of the Graph Laplacian. Edge-transitive graphs and distance-regular…
A rigidity theory is developed for the Euclidean and non-Euclidean placements of countably infinite simple graphs in R^d with respect to the classical l^p norms, for d>1 and 1<p<\infty. Generalisations are obtained for the Laman and…
We prove that curve complexes of surfaces are finitely rigid: for every orientable surface S of finite topological type, we identify a finite subcomplex X of the curve complex C(S) such that every locally injective simplicial map from X…
The triangulations of a surface $\Sigma$ with a prescribed set of vertices can be endowed with a graph structure $\mathcal{F}(\Sigma)$. Its edges connect two triangulations that differ by a single arc. It is known that, when $\Sigma$ is a…
We prove that the topological complexity of a finite index subgroup of a hyperbolic group is linear in its index. This follows from a more general result relating the size of the quotient of a free cocompact action of hyperbolic group on a…
In this article, we construct a new simplicial complex for infinite-type surfaces, which we call the grand arc graph. We show that if the end space of a surface has at least three different self-similar equivalence classes of maximal ends,…
This paper is the last part of a comprehensive survey of a newly emerging field: a topological approach to the study of locally finite graphs that crucially incorporates their ends. Topological arcs and circles, which may pass through ends,…
We consider seven fundamental properties of cellular embeddings of graphs in compact surfaces, and show that each property can be associated with a point of the Fano plane $F$, in such a way that allowable combinations of properties…
This work is the extension of the results by the author in [7] and [6] for low-genus surfaces. Let $S$ be an orientable, connected surface of finite topological type, with genus $g \leq 2$, empty boundary, and complexity at least $2$; as a…
Let $N$ be a connected closed non-orientable surface of genus at least 6. In this work we prove that there exists a finite subgraph $\mathfrak{X}$ (Irmak's finite rigid set from ``Elmas Irmak. Exhausting curve complexes by finite rigid sets…
