The secondary polytope of a point configuration A is a polytope whose face poset is isomorphic to the poset of all regular subdivisions of A. While the vertices of the secondary polytope - corresponding to the triangulations of A - are very…

We study a class of complex polynomial equations on a finite graph with a view to understanding how holistic phenomena emerge from combinatorial structure. Particular solutions arise from orthogonal projections of regular polytopes,…

Adjacency polytopes, a.k.a. symmetric edge polytopes, associated with undirected graphs have been defined and studied in several seemingly independent areas including number theory, discrete geometry, and dynamical systems. In particular,…

Given a graph $G$ and a non trivial partition $(V_1,V_2)$ of its vertex-set, the satisfaction of a vertex $v\in V_i$ is the ratio between the size of it's closed neighborhood in $V_i$ and the size of its closed neighborhood in $G$. The…

We consider a set of cliques in any multipartite graph with two vertices in each part. Moreover, we construct a class of peculiar polytopes. Key words: multipartite graph, clique, polytope.

Given a finite set of points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, Tverberg's theorem guarantees the existence of partitions of this set into parts whose convex hulls intersect. We introduce a graph structured on the family of Tverberg partitions of a given…

A \emph{complete geometric graph} consists of a set $P$ of $n$ points in the plane, in general position, and all segments (edges) connecting them. It is a well known question of Bose, Hurtado, Rivera-Campo, and Wood, whether there exists a…

For stacked simplicial complexes, (special subclasses of such are: trees, triangulations of polygons, stacked polytopes), we give an explicit bijection between partitions of facets (for trees: edges), and partitions of vertices into…

The degree polynomial of a multigraph $G$ is given by $\sum _{v \in V(G)} x^{\mbox{deg}(v)}$. We investigate here properties of the roots of such polynomials. In addition to examining the roots for some families of graphs with few and many…

For the partition graph $G_n$, whose vertices are the partitions of $n$ and whose edges correspond to elementary unit transfers between parts, we develop a degree theory with three levels: exact value theory, exact profile theory, and…

A split of a polytope is a (necessarily regular) subdivision with exactly two maximal cells. A polytope is totally splittable if each triangulation (without additional vertices) is a common refinement of splits. This paper establishes a…

Let $G$ be a simple graph and $v$ be a vertex of $G$. The triangle-degree of $v$ in $G$ is the number of triangles that contain $v$. While every graph has at least two vertices with the same degree, there are graphs in which every vertex…

The symmetric edge polytope ($\mathrm{SEP}$) of a finite simple graph $G$ is a centrally symmetric lattice polytope whose vertices are defined by the edges of the graph. Among the information encoded by these polytopes are the symmetries of…

An equidistant polytope is a special equidistant set in the space $\mathbb{R}^n$ all of whose boundary points have equal distances from two finite systems of points. Since one of the finite systems of the given points is required to be in…
