This article lays the foundations for an analogue of geometric group theory that studies actions on graphs by right quasigroups, including racks and quandles. We study markings of graphs that realize racks, and we introduce (di)graph…
The purpose of this paper is to provide and study a Hom-type generalization of Jordan-Malcev-Poisson algebras, called Hom-Jordan-Malcev-Poisson algebras. We show that they are closed under twisting by suitable self-maps and give a…
In this paper, for each graph $G$, we def\mbox{}ine a chain complex of graded modules over the ring of polynomials, whose graded Euler characteristic is equal to the chromatic polynomial of $G$. Furthermore, we def\mbox{}ine a chain complex…
The graph complex acts on the spaces of Poisson bi-vectors $P$ by infinitesimal symmetries. We prove that whenever a Poisson structure is homogeneous, i.e. $P = L_{\vec{V}}(P)$ w.r.t. the Lie derivative along some vector field $\vec{V}$,…
We develop a theory of covering digraphs, similar to the theory of covering spaces. By applying this theory to Cayley digraphs, we build a "bridge" between GLMY-theory and group homology theory, which helps to reduce path homology…
We study certain complexes of differential forms, including reverse de Rham complexes, on (real or complex) Poisson manifolds, especially holomorphic log-symplectic ones. We relate these to the degeneracy divisor and rank loci of the…
Given a finite simplicial complex $X$ and a connected graph $T$ of diameter $1$, in \cite{anton} Dochtermann had conjectured that $\text{Hom}(T,G_{1,X})$ is homotopy equivalent to $X$. Here, $G_{1, X}$ is the reflexive graph obtained by…
In two seminal papers Kontsevich used a construction called_graph homology_ as a bridge between certain infinite dimensional Lie algebras and various topological objects, including moduli spaces of curves, the group of outer automorphisms…
We show that the higher-order Weyl algebras over a field of characteristic zero, which are formally rigid as associative algebras, can be formally deformed in a nontrivial way as hom-associative algebras. We also show that these…
Combinatorics, in particular graph theory, has a rich history of being a domain of successful applications of tools from other areas of mathematics, including topological methods. Here, we survey the study of the Hom-complexes, and the ways…
Sidorenko's conjecture asserts that every bipartite graph $H$ has the property that, for any host graph $G$, the homomorphism density from $H$ to $G$ is asymptotically at least as large as in a quasirandom graph with the same edge density…
We will consider P-graph complexes, where P is a cyclic operad. P-graph complexes are natural generalizations of Kontsevich's graph complexes -- for P = the operad for associative algebras it is the complex of ribbon graphs, for P = the…
A graph $G$ covers a graph $H$ if there exists a locally bijective homomorphism from $G$ to $H$. We deal with regular covers where this homomorphism is prescribed by the action of a semiregular subgroup of $\textrm{Aut}(G)$. We study…
We use category-theoretic techniques to provide two proofs showing that for a higher-rank graph $\Lambda$, its cubical (co-)homology and categorical (co-)homology groups are isomorphic in all degrees, thus answering a question of Kumjian,…
We prove that the topological connectivity of a graph homomorphism complex Hom($G,K_m$) is at least $m-D(G)-2$, where $\displaystyle D(G)=\max_{H\subseteq G}\delta(H)$. This is a strong generalization of a theorem of Cuki\'{c} and Kozlov,…
We define the notion of hom-Batalin-Vilkovisky algebras and strong differential hom-Gerstenhaber algebras as a special class of hom-Gerstenhaber algebras and provide canonical examples associated to some well-known hom-structures.…
Correspondence homomorphisms are both a generalization of standard homomorphisms and a generalization of correspondence colourings. For a fixed target graph $H$, the problem is to decide whether an input graph $G$, with each edge labeled by…
The mapping class group of a closed surface of genus $g$ is an extension of the Torelli group by the symplectic group. This leads to two natural problems: (a) compute (stably) the symplectic decomposition of the lower central series of the…
We study the hairy graph homology of a cyclic operad; in particular we show how to assemble corresponding hairy graph cohomology classes to form cocycles for ordinary graph homology, as defined by Kontsevich. We identify the part of hairy…
A Hom-group G is a nonassociative version of a group where associativity, invertibility, and unitality are twisted by a map \alpha: G\longrightarrow G. Introducing the Hom-group algebra KG, we observe that Hom-groups are providing examples…
