This article presents an improvement and extension of the heuristic first presented by Hougardy, Lutz, and Zelke in 2010 for realizing triangulated orientable surfaces with few vertices by a simplex-wise linear embedding. The improvement…

Turaev's shadow can be seen locally as the Stein factorization of a stable map. In this paper, we define the notion of stable map complexity for a compact orientable 3-manifold bounded by (possibly empty) tori counting, with some weights,…

We construct the first known examples of nontrivial, normal, all pseudo-Anosov subgroups of mapping class groups of surfaces. Specifically, we construct such subgroups for the closed genus two surface and for the sphere with five or more…

Simplicial complexes are extensively studied in the field of algebraic topology. They have gained attention in recent time due to their applications in fields like theoretical distributed computing and simplicial neural networks. Graphs are…

A degree-regular triangulation is one in which each vertex has identical degree. Our main result is that any such triangulation of a (possibly non-compact) surface $S$ is geometric, that is, it is combinatorially equivalent to a geodesic…

Many fundamental structures of Riemannian geometry have found discrete counterparts for graphs or combinatorial ones for simplicial complexes. These include those discussed in this survey, Hodge theory, Morse theory, the spectral theory of…

This is a preliminary note on a family of minimal surfaces in the 3-sphere defined by a compatible fourth order equation. The minimal surfaces are geometrically characterized either by having a surface of revolution like induced metric, or…

By the Riemann-mapping theorem, one can bijectively map the interior of an $n$-gon $P$ to that of another $n$-gon $Q$ conformally. However, (the boundary extension of) this mapping need not necessarily map the vertices of $P$ to those $Q$.…

We prove two mixed versions of the Discrete Nodal Theorem of Davies et. al. [3] for bounded degree graphs, and for three-connected graphs of fixed genus $g$. Using this we can show that for a three-connected graph satisfying a certain…

A $\textit{regular polygon surface}$ $M$ is a surface graph $(\Sigma, \Gamma)$ together with a continuous map $\psi$ from $\Sigma$ into Euclidean 3-space which maps faces to regular Euclidean polygons. When $\Sigma$ is homeomorphic to the…

We construct $d$-dimensional pure simplicial complexes and pseudo-manifolds (without boundary) with $n$ vertices whose combinatorial diameter grows as $c_d n^{d-1}$ for a constant $c_d$ depending only on $d$, which is the maximum possible…

With a better understanding of the loss surfaces for multilayer networks, we can build more robust and accurate training procedures. Recently it was discovered that independently trained SGD solutions can be connected along one-dimensional…

This paper is a continuation of our previous works (see Mui\'c in Monatsh. Math. 180, no. 3, 607--629, (2016)) and (Mui\'c, Kodrnja in Ramanujan J. 55, no. 2, 393--420, (2021)) where we have studied maps from $X_0(N)$ into $\mathbb P^2$…

It is well known that one can find a rational normal curve in $\mathbb P^n$ through $n+3$ general points. We prove a generalization of this to higher dimensional varieties, showing that smooth varieties of minimal degree can be interpolated…

We consider the construction of a polyhedral Delaunay partition as a limit of the sequence of power diagrams (radical partitions). The dual Voronoi diagram is obtained as a limit of the sequence of weighted Delaunay partitions. The problem…

We initiate a study of varieties of minimal degree in weighted projective spaces. We call a weighted projective space $\mathbf{P}(w_0,\dots,w_n)$ divisible if $w_i \mid w_{i+1}$ for all $i$. We provide sharp bounds for when a non-degenerate…

We prove an existence and uniqueness theorem about spherical helicoidal (in particular, rotational) surfaces with prescribed mean or Gaussian curvature in terms of a continuous function depending on the distance to its axis. As an…

We study ruled submanifolds of Euclidean space. First, to each (parametrized) ruled submanifold $\sigma$, we associate an integer-valued function, called degree, measuring the extent to which $\sigma$ fails to be cylindrical. In particular,…

Special generic maps are higher dimensional versions of Morse functions with exactly two singular points, characterizing spheres topologically except 4-dimensional cases and 4-dimensional standard spheres. The class of such maps also…

This paper exhibits a structural strategy to produce new minimal submanifolds in spheres based on two given ones. The method is to spin the given minimal submanifolds by a curve $\gamma\subset \mathbb S^3$ in a balanced way and leads to…
