Let $C_{k_1}, \ldots, C_{k_n}$ be cycles with $k_i\geq 2$ vertices ($1\le i\le n$). By attaching these $n$ cycles together in a linear order, we obtain a graph called a polygon chain. By attaching these $n$ cycles together in a cyclic…
We consider the problem of drawing an outerplanar graph with $n$ vertices with at most one bend per edge if the outer face is already drawn as a simple polygon. We prove that it can be decided in $O(nm)$ time if such a drawing exists, where…
Let $E_{d}(\ell)$ denote the space of all closed $n$-gons in $\R^{d}$ (where $d\ge 2$) with sides of length $\ell_1,..., \ell_n$, viewed up to translations. The spaces $E_d(\ell)$ are parameterized by their length vectors $\ell=(\ell_1,...,…
We study Seiberg-Witten (SW) geometries for rank-two theories, encompassing 4D field theories as well as 5D and 6D Kaluza-Klein (KK) theories. The singular model for each SW geometry is derived from a one-parameter family of algebraic…
We construct a large class of Argyres-Douglas type theories by compactifying six dimensional (2,0) A_N theory on a Riemann surface with irregular singularities. We give a complete classification for the choices of Riemann surface and the…
The work that consists of two parts is devoted to the problem of enumerating unrooted $r$-regular maps on the torus up to all its symmetries. We begin with enumerating near-$r$-regular rooted maps on the torus, projective plane and the…
We analyze chiral topological edge modes in a non-Hermitian variant of the 2D Dirac equation. Such modes appear at interfaces between media with different "masses" and/or signs of the "non-Hermitian charge". The existence of these edge…
For $n \geq 1$, the twistor space $\mathfrak{Z}(\mathbb{S}^{2n})$ of the conformal $2n$-sphere is biholomorphic to the Zariski closure, taken in the complex Grassmannian manifold $\mathbf{G}(n+1, 2n+2)$, of the set of graphs of…
A family of algebraic curves covering a projective variety $X$ is called a web of curves on $X$ if it has only finitely many members through a general point of $X$. A web of curves on $X$ induces a web-structure, in the sense of local…
Geodesic nets on Riemannian manifolds form a natural class of stationary objects generalizing geodesics. Yet almost nothing is known about their classification or general properties even when the ambient Riemannian manifold is the Euclidean…
For a natural number d and a d-dimensional real vector r let Tau(r) denote the (d-dimensional) shift radix system associated with r. Tau(r) is said to have the finiteness property iff all orbits of Tau(r) end up in the zero vector; the set…
Fix an integer $n \geq 1$, and consider the set of all connected finite simple graphs on $n$ vertices. For each $G$ in this set, let $I(G)$ denote the edge ideal of $G$ in the polynomial ring $R = K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$. We initiate a study of…
The present paper describes the $W$--geometry of the Abelian finite non-periodic (conformal) Toda systems associated with the $B,C$ and $D$ series of the simple Lie algebras endowed with the canonical gradation. The principal tool here is a…
It is well known that the bulk physics of a topological phase constrains its possible edge physics through the bulk-edge correspondence. Therefore, the different types of edge theories that a topological phase can host constitute a…
We determine all toric phases for the $2d$ $(0,2)$ theories on D1-branes probing the complex cones over the 18 smooth Fano 3-folds, whose toric diagrams correspond to the regular reflexive polytopes in 3 dimensions. These results…
Outer Billiards is a geometrically inspired dynamical system based on a convex shape in the plane. When the shape is a polygon, the system has a combinatorial flavor. In the polygonal case, there is a natural acceleration of the map, a…
The classification of one parameter local Coulomb branch solution of theories with eight supercharges is given by assuming that it is given by a genus $g$ fiberation of Riemann surfaces. The crucial point is the fact that certain conjugacy…
The main purpose of this paper is twofold. We first want to analyze in details the meaningful geometric aspect of the method introduced in the previous paper [12], concerning regularity of families of irreducible, nodal "curves" on a…
In three dimensions, a `master theory' for all Thurston geometries requires imaginary flux. However, these geometries can be obtained from physical three-dimensional theories with various additional scalar fields, which can be interpreted…
We study a class of Legendrian surfaces in contact five-folds by encoding their wavefronts via planar combinatorial structures. We refer to these surfaces as Legendrian weaves, and to the combinatorial objects as N-graphs. First, we develop…
