The zero level set of a piecewise-affine function with respect to a consistent tetrahedral subdivision of a domain in $\mathbb{R}^3$ is a piecewise-planar hyper-surface. We prove that if a family of consistent tetrahedral subdivions…
We investigate the Schmid theorem, which states that if one has a tree level mechanism with a particle decaying to two particles and one of them decaying posteriorly to two other particles, the possible triangle singularity developed by the…
Given a simple, unweighted, undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ with $|V|=n$ and $|E|=m$, and parameters $0 < \varepsilon, \delta <1$, along with \texttt{Degree}, \texttt{Neighbour}, \texttt{Edge} and \texttt{RandomEdge} query access to $G$, we…
A \emph{stacked triangulation} of a $d$-simplex $\mathbf{o}=\{1,\ldots,d+1\}$ ($d\geq 2$) is a triangulation obtained by repeatedly subdividing a $d$-simplex into $d+1$ new ones via a new vertex (the case $d=2$ is known as an Appolonian…
We consider uniform spanning tree (UST) in topological rectangles with alternating boundary conditions. The Peano curves associated to the UST converge weakly to hypergeometric SLE$_8$, denoted by hSLE$_8$. From the convergence result, we…
The study of extremal problems on triangle areas was initiated in a series of papers by Erd\H{o}s and Purdy in the early 1970s. In this paper we present new results on such problems, concerning the number of triangles of the same area that…
We introduce a new spanning tree model called the random spanning tree in random environment (RSTRE), which interpolates between the uniform spanning tree and the minimum spanning tree as the inverse temperature (disorder strength) $\beta$…
Masbaum and Vaintrob's "Pfaffian matrix tree theorem" implies that counting spanning trees of a 3-uniform hypergraph (abbreviated to 3-graph) can be done in polynomial time for a class of "3-Pfaffian" 3-graphs, comparable to and related to…
We examine various perspectives on the decay of correlation for the uniform distribution over proper $q$-edge colorings of graphs with maximum degree $\Delta$. First, we establish the coupling independence property when $q\ge 3\Delta$ for…
The search for universality in random triangulations of manifolds, like those featuring in (Euclidean) Dynamical Triangulations, is central to the random geometry approach to quantum gravity. In case of the 3-sphere, or any other manifold…
This paper considers the asymptotic distribution of the longest edge of the minimal spanning tree and nearest neighbor graph on X_1,...,X_{N_n} where X_1,X_2,... are i.i.d. in \Re^2 with distribution F and N_n is independent of the X_i and…
We derive a formula which is a lower bound on the dimension of trivariate splines on a tetrahedral partition which are continuously differentiable of order $r$ in large enough degree. While this formula may fail to be a lower bound on the…
This paper deals with the optimal streaky perturbations (which maximize the perturbed energy growth) in a wedge flow boundary layer. These three dimensional perturbations are governed by a system of linearized boundary layer equations…
In the 1960's, Birch proved that the traces of Frobenius for elliptic curves taken at random over a large finite field is modeled by the semicircular distribution (i.e. the usual Sato-Tate for non-CM elliptic curves). In analogy with…
This paper addresses the basic question of how well can a tree approximate distances of a metric space or a graph. Given a graph, the problem of constructing a spanning tree in a graph which strongly preserves distances in the graph is a…
We show that critical percolation on a product of two regular trees of degree $\ge$ 3 satisfies the triangle condition. The proof does not examine the degrees of vertices and is not "perturbative" in any sense. It relies on an unpublished…
We consider the Constrained-degree percolation model in random environment on the square lattice. In this model, each vertex $v$ has an independent random constraint ${\kappa}_v$ which takes the value $j\in \{0,1,2,3\}$ with probability…
Let ${\mathcal U}_{\delta}$ be the uniform spanning tree on $\delta \mathbb{Z}^{3}$. A spanning cluster of ${\mathcal U}_{\delta}$ is a connected component of the restriction of ${\mathcal U}_{\delta}$ to the unit cube $[0,1]^{3}$ that…
We prove that any graph $G$ with $n$ points has a distribution $\mathcal{T}$ over spanning trees such that for any edge $(u,v)$ the expected stretch $E_{T \sim \mathcal{T}}[d_T(u,v)/d_G(u,v)]$ is bounded by $\tilde{O}(\log n)$. Our result…
A {$t$-stretch tree cover} of a metric space $M = (X,\delta)$, for a parameter $t \ge 1$, is a collection of trees such that every pair of points has a $t$-stretch path in one of the trees. Tree covers provide an important sketching tool…
