We study in this paper the structure of solutions in the random hypergraph coloring problem and the phase transitions they undergo when the density of constraints is varied. Hypergraph coloring is a constraint satisfaction problem where…
This article shows how to find the solution of an arbitrary quintic equation by performing two simultaneous folds on a sheet of paper. The folds achieve specific incidences between a set of points and lines that are determined by the…
We use Menger's Theorem and K\"onig's Line Colouring Theorem to show that in any tripartite graph with two complete (bipartite) sides the maximum number of pairwise edge-disjoint triangles equals the minimum number of edges that meet all…
Inspired by classical puzzles in geometry that ask about probabilities of geometric phenomena, we give an explicit formula for the probability that a random triangle on a flat torus is homotopically trivial. Our main tool for this…
Numerical quantum transport calculations are commonly based on a tight-binding formulation. A wide class of quantum transport algorithms requires the tight-binding Hamiltonian to be in the form of a block-tridiagonal matrix. Here, we…
Random matrices in the large N expansion and the so-called double scaling limit can be used as toy models for quantum gravity: 2D quantum gravity coupled to conformal matter. This has generated a tremendous expansion of random matrix…
After defining convex near-polygons, a formula enumerating the number of triangulations of such configurations is derived in terms of edge-polynomials. The paper describes also a transfer-matrix approach for computing quantities related to…
The construction of quantum knot invariants from solutions of the Yang--Baxter equation (R-matrices) is reviewed with the emphasis on a class of R-matrices admitting an interpretation in intrinsically three-dimensional terms.
We prove several results about the complexity of the role colouring problem. A role colouring of a graph $G$ is an assignment of colours to the vertices of $G$ such that two vertices of the same colour have identical sets of colours in…
We survey more recent attempts at enumerating the number of mountain-valley assignments that allow a given crease pattern to locally fold flat. In particular, we solve this problem for square twist tessellations and generalize the method…
A geometric inequality among three triangles, originating in circle packing problems, is introduced. In order to prove it, we reduce the original formulation to the nonnegativity of a particular polynomial in four real indeterminates.…
We consider infinite random casual Lorentzian triangulations emerging in quantum gravity for critical values of parameters. With each vertex of the triangulation we associate a Hilbert space representing a bosonic particle moving in…
We introduce and investigate numerically a minimal class of dynamical triangulations of two-dimensional gravity on the sphere in which only vertices of order five, six or seven are permitted. We show firstly that this restriction of the…
We study the problem of colouring the vertices of a polygon, such that every viewer in it can see a unique colour. The goal is to minimise the number of colours used. This is also known as the conflict-free chromatic guarding problem with…
A random number of items each independently marked with one of a collection of colours gives rise to the multinomial marking, which generalises binomial thinning. A multivariate version, where previously marked items are then re-marked, has…
We present a procedure to generate bipartite grids for simply connected domains in 2-D and 3-D of prescribed size and controlled regularity elements. The mesh elements $K$ of the triangulation satisfy $\zeta_{K} \leq C$ where $\zeta_{K}$ is…
A fast algorithm for counting intersections of two normal curves on a triangulated surface is proposed. It yields a convenient way for treating mapping class groups of punctured surfaces by presenting mapping classes by matrices, and the…
A celebrated but non-effective theorem of Tibor Gallai states that for any finite set $A$ of $\Z^n$ and for any finite number of colors $c$ there is a minimal $m$ such that no coloring of the finite $m^n$-grid can avoid that a homothetic…
We develop a heuristic graph coloring approximation algorithm that uses the D-Wave 2X as an independent set sampler and evaluate its performance against a fully classical implementation. A randomly generated set of small but hard graph…
We carry out a sequence of coordinate changes for the planar three-body problem which successively eliminate the translation and rotation symmetries, regularize all three double collision singularities and blow-up the triple collision.…
