Let G be a graph. The (unlabeled) configuration space of n points on G is the space of all n-element subsets of G. The fundamental group of such a configuration space is called a graph braid group. We use a version of discrete Morse theory…

In this paper we give a method to construct Heegaard splittings of oriented graph manifolds with orientable bases. A graph manifold is a closed $3$-manifold admitting only Seifert-fibered pieces in its Jaco-Shalen decomposition; for…

Inspired by the works of Forman on discrete Morse theory, which is a combinatorial adaptation to cell complexes of classical Morse theory on manifolds, we introduce a discrete analogue of the stratified Morse theory of Goresky and…

Asymptotic net is an important concept in discrete differential geometry. In this paper, we show that we can associate affine discrete geometric concepts to an arbitrary non-degenerate asymptotic net. These concepts include discrete affine…

By the famous ADE classification rational double points are simple. Rational triple points are also simple. We conjecture that the simple normal surface singularities are exactly those rational singularities, whose resolution graph can be…

A graph is $d$-orientable if its edges can be oriented so that the maximum in-degree of the resulting digraph is at most $d$. $d$-orientability is a well-studied concept with close connections to fundamental graph-theoretic notions and…

We introduce the notion of graphical discreteness to group theory. A finitely generated group is graphically discrete if whenever it acts geometrically on a locally finite graph, the automorphism group of the graph is compact-by-discrete.…

A $(d-1)$-dimensional simplicial complex $\Delta$ is balanced if its graph $G(\Delta)$ is $d$-colorable. Klee and Novik obtained the balanced lower bound theorem for balanced normal $(d-1)$-pseudomanifolds $\Delta$ with $d\geq3$ by showing…

A bar-joint framework $(G,p)$ in Euclidean $d$-space is rigid if the only edge-length-preserving continuous motions arise from isometries of $\mathbb{R}^d$. In the generic case, rigidity is determined by the generic $d$-dimensional rigidity…

Generalizing the case of an infinite discrete metric space of finite diameter, we say that a discrete metric space $(X,d)$ is a Kuiper space, if the group of invertible elements of its uniform Roe algebra is norm-contractible. Various…

The arboricity of a discrete 2-sphere is always 3. The arboricity of any other discrete 2-dimensional surface is always 4. For d-manifolds of dimension larger than 2, the arboricity can be arbitrary large and must be larger than d.

Special generic maps are generalizations of Morse functions with exactly two singular points on spheres and canonical projections of unit spheres. They restrict the manifolds of the domains strongly in considerable cases and are important…

Special generic maps are smooth maps at each singular point of which we can represent as $(x_1, \cdots, x_m) \mapsto (x_1,\cdots,x_{n-1},\sum_{k=n}^{m}{x_k}^2)$ for suitable coordinates. Morse functions with exactly two singular points on…

We prove that for any prime homology $(d-1)$-sphere $\Delta$ of dimension $d-1\geq 3$ and any edge $e\in S$, the graph $G(\Delta)-e$ is generically $d$-rigid. This confirms a conjecture of Nevo and Novinsky.
