Given a constant $k>1$, let $Z$ be the family of round spheres of radius $\textrm{artanh}(k^{-1})$ in the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^3$, so that any sphere in $Z$ has mean curvature $k$. We prove a crucial nondegeneracy result involving…
Let $F$ be a family of pseudo-disks in the plane, and $P$ be a finite subset of $F$. Consider the hypergraph $H(P,F)$ whose vertices are the pseudo-disks in $P$ and the edges are all subsets of $P$ of the form $\{D \in P \mid D \cap S \neq…
There are multiple mappings that can be used to generate what we call the 'edge geometry' of a regular N-gon, but they are all based on piecewise isometries acting on the extended edges of N to form a 'singularity' set W. This singularity…
Consider a sequence of closed, orientable surfaces of fixed genus $g$ in a Riemannian manifold $M$ with uniform upper bounds on mean curvature and area. We show that on passing to a subsequence and choosing appropriate parametrisations, the…
We establish the following two main results on order types of points in general position in the plane (realizable simple planar order types, realizable uniform acyclic oriented matroids of rank $3$): (a) The number of extreme points in an…
We use normal sections to relate the curvature locus of regular (resp. singular corank 1) 3-manifolds in $\mathbb{R}^6$ (resp. $\mathbb R^5$) with regular (resp. singular corank 1) surfaces in $\mathbb R^5$ (resp. $\mathbb R^4$). For…
We prove that for each $d\geq 3$ and $k\geq 2$, the set of limit points of the first $k$ eigenvalues of sequences of $d$-regular graphs is \[ \{(\mu_1,\dots,\mu_k): d=\mu_1\geq \dots\geq \mu_{k}\geq2\sqrt{d-1}\}. \] The result for $k=2$ was…
Let $K$ be a $k$-dimensional simplicial complex having $n$ faces of dimension $k$, and $M$ a closed $(k-1)$-connected PL $2k$-dimensional manifold. We prove that for $k\ge3$ odd $K$ embeds into $M$ if and only if there are $\bullet$ a…
In a seminal work, K\"uhn, Osthus, Townsend, and Zhao used the hypergraph container method to determine the typical structure of oriented graphs and digraphs avoiding a fixed tournament or cycle. Their main tool, a container theorem for…
We establish the existence of a non-trivial, branched immersion of a closed Riemann surface $\Sigma$ with constant mean curvature (CMC) $H$ into any closed, orientable 3-manifold $\mathcal{M}$, for almost every prescribed value of $H$. The…
We investigate when the fundamental group of the smooth part of a K3 surface or Enriques surface with Du Val singularities, is finite. As a corollary we give an effective upper bound for the order of the fundamental group of the smooth part…
Let $G$ be a finite simple graph on the vertex set $[n] = \{ 1, \ldots, n \}$ and $K[X, Y] = K[x_1, \ldots, x_n, y_1, \ldots, y_n]$ the polynomial ring in $2n$ variables over a field $K$ with each $\mathrm{deg} x_i = \mathrm{deg} y_j = 1$.…
A simplicial complex of dimension $d-1$ is said to be balanced if its graph is $d$-colorable. Juhnke-Kubitzke and Murai proved an analogue of the generalized lower bound theorem for balanced simplicial polytopes. We establish a…
We prove that every infinite sequence of skew-symmetric or symmetric matrices M_1, M_2, ... over a fixed finite field must have a pair M_i, M_j (i<j) such that M_i is isomorphic to a principal submatrix of the Schur complement of a…
Given a 3 manifold M with torus boundary and an ideal triangulation, Yoshida and Tillmann give different methods to construct surfaces embedded in M from ideal points of the deformation variety. Yoshida builds a surface from twisted squares…
Let G be a simple graph without isolated vertices. For a vertex i in G, the degree d_i is the number of vertices adjacent to i and the average 2-degree m_i is the mean of the degrees of the vertices which are adjacent to i. The sequence of…
Let $G$ be a finite graph on the vertex set $[d] = \{1, ..., d \}$ with the edges $e_1, ..., e_n$ and $K[\tb] = K[t_1, ..., t_d]$ the polynomial ring in $d$ variables over a field $K$. The edge ring of $G$ is the semigroup ring $K[G]$ which…
We first characterise graphs with binomial edge ideals of K\"onig type as those for which the path covering number is equal to a minor variant of the scattering number. These are well-studied graph-theoretic invariants, allowing us to apply…
We study the supremum of the total mean curvature on the boundary of compact, mean-convex 3-manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature, and a prescribed boundary metric. We establish an additivity property for this supremum and exhibit…
