We provide a novel new approach for aligning geometric models using a dual graph structure where local features are mapping probabilities. Alignment of non-rigid structures is one of the most challenging computer vision tasks due to the…
Every simple quadrangulation of the sphere is generated by a graph called a pseudo-double wheel with two local expansions (Brinkmann et al. "Generation of simple quadrangulations of the sphere." Discrete Math., Vol. 305, No. 1-3, pp. 33-54,…
We show that if a non-degenerate PL map $f:N\to M$ lifts to a topological embedding in $M\times\mathbb R^k$ then it lifts to a PL embedding in there. We also show that if a stable smooth map $N^n\to M^m$, $m\ge n$, lifts to a topological…
We consider the torus compactifications with flux of a class of $6d$ $(1,0)$ SCFTs that can be engineered as the low-energy theories on M$5$-branes near an M$9$-plane on a $C^2/Z_2$ singularity. Specifically, we concentrate on the two SCFTs…
We give explicit deformations of embeddings of abstractly planar graphs that lie on the standard torus $T^2 \subset \mathbb{R}^3$ and that contain neither a nontrivial knot nor a nonsplit link into the plane. It follows that ravels do not…
We prove a topological extension of Dirac's theorem suggested by Gowers in 2005: for any connected, closed surface $\mathscr{S}$, we show that any two-dimensional simplicial complex on $n$ vertices in which each pair of vertices belongs to…
A spatial surface is a compact surface embedded in the $3$-sphere. We assume that a spatial surface is oriented and that each connected component of a spatial surface is neither a disk nor without a boundary. A diagram of a spatial surface…
Kuratowski proved that a finite graph embeds in the plane if it does not contain a subdivision of either K_5 or K_{3,3}, called Kuratowski subgraphs. A conjectured generalization of this result to all nonorientable surfaces says that a…
We prove that every locally Hamiltonian graph with $n\ge 3$ vertices and possibly with multiple edges has at least $3n-6$ edges with equality if and only if it triangulates the sphere. As a consequence, every edge-maximal embedding of a…
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…
The structure of graphs with a 2-vertex-cut that are critical with respect to the Euler genus is studied. A general theorem describing the building blocks is presented. These constituents, called hoppers and cascades, are classified for the…
We present a general formula for the topology and H-flux of the T-dual of a type two compactification. Our results apply to T-dualities with respect to any free circle action. In particular we find that the manifolds on each side of the…
We construct embedded closed minimal surfaces in the round three-sphere, resembling two parallel copies of the Clifford torus, joined by m^2 small catenoidal bridges symmetrically arranged along a square lattice of points on the torus.
Graph neural networks (GNNs) are a powerful architecture for tackling graph learning tasks, yet have been shown to be oblivious to eminent substructures such as cycles. We present TOGL, a novel layer that incorporates global topological…
We find all m-spin structures on Klein surfaces of genus larger than one. An m-spin structure on a Riemann surface P is a complex line bundle on P whose m-th tensor power is the cotangent bundle of P. A Klein surface can be described by a…
In this article we emphasize on the connection between two fields of study that are Penny Graphs, and the Optimal Packing of Spheres on the Flat Torus. We give a brief litterature overview on related results in the fields of planar graphs,…
We give an example of a smooth characteristic embedding of a torus in $\s^2 \times \s^2 \# \s^1 \times \s^3$ such that there exists no diffeomorphism of the ambient $4$-manifold that induces the Dehn twist along a meridian of the torus, but…
The spin network simulator model represents a bridge between (generalized) circuit schemes for standard quantum computation and approaches based on notions from Topological Quantum Field Theories (TQFT). More precisely, when working with…
The problem of representing nodes in a signed network as low-dimensional vectors, known as signed network embedding (SNE), has garnered considerable attention in recent years. While several SNE methods based on graph convolutional networks…
Spatially embedded networks have attracted increasing attention in the last decade. In this context, new types of network characteristics have been introduced which explicitly take spatial information into account. Among others, edge…
