Various approaches and measures from network analysis have been applied to granular and particulate networks to gain insights into their structural, transport, failure-propagation and other systems-level properties. In this article, we…
In this paper, we prove the conjectures of Gharakhloo and Welker (2023) that the positive matching decomposition number (pmd) of a $3$-uniform hypergraph is bounded from above by a polynomial of degree $2$ in terms of the number of…
Starting from an Enriques surface over $\mathbb{Q}(t)$ considered by Lafon, we give the first examples of smooth projective weakly special threefolds which fibre over the projective line in Enriques surfaces (resp. K3 surfaces) with nowhere…
This paper is an expansion of my lecture for David Epstein's birthday, which traced a logical progression from ideas of Euclid on subdividing polygons to some recent research on invariants of hyperbolic 3-manifolds. This `logical…
We provide updated predictions for elastic \gamma ${}^3$He cross sections and asymmetries that correct erroneous results we published in Phys. Rev. Lett. 98, 232303 (2007) and Nucl. Phys. A 819, 98 (2009).
These notes are based on the three lectures that one of the authors gave at Tsinghua University in the summer of 2023 as part of the workshop on Geometric Representation Theory and Applications. They contain an introduction to the…
In the paper "Broersma and Hoede, {\it Path graphs}, J. Graph Theory {\bf 13} (1989) 427-444", the authors proposed a problem whether there is a triple of mutually nonisomorphic connected graphs which have an isomorphic connected…
The three-page index $\alpha_3(L)$ is an invariant that measures the complexity of representing a link $L$ in a three-page book. It is known that $\alpha_3(L)$ admits a linear upper bound in terms of the crossing number, with equality…
We classify nets of conics in Desarguesian projective planes over finite fields of odd order, namely, two-dimensional linear systems of conics containing a repeated line. Our proof is geometric in the sense that we solve the equivalent…
In this paper we consider graphs whose edges are associated with a degree of {\em importance}, which may depend on the type of connections they represent or on how recently they appeared in the scene, in a streaming setting. The goal is to…
In this article we give a survey on open problems and conjectures concerning L^2-invariants. We cover the whole portfolio and not only certain aspects as they are considered in the previous more specialized (and within their scope more…
Motivated by the enumeration of the BPS spectra of certain 3d $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric quantum field theories, obtained from the compactification of 6d superconformal field theories on three-manifolds, we study the homeomorphism…
This monograph is centred at the intersection of three mathematical topics, that are theoretical in nature, yet with motivations and relevance deep rooted in applications: the linear inverse problems on abstract, in general…
This work connects two mathematical fields - computational complexity and interval linear algebra. It introduces the basic topics of interval linear algebra - regularity and singularity, full column rank, solving a linear system, deciding…
It is shown that the arguments in the reply of Z.-D. Zhang (arXiv:0812.0194) to the comment arXiv:0811.1802 defending his conjectures in arXiv:0705.1045 are invalid. His conjectures have been thoroughly disproved.
The review paper by Zhang Zhi-Dong contains many errors and is based on several earlier works that are equally wrong.
We consider configurations of lines in 3-space with incidences prescribed by a graph. This defines a subvariety in a product of Grassmannians. Leveraging a connection with rigidity theory in the plane, for any graph, we determine the…
We consider compactifications of the space of triples of distinct points in projective $n$-space. One such space is a singular variety of configurations of points and lines; another is the smooth compactification of Fulton and MacPherson;…
A graph is called dispersable if it has a book embedding in which each page has maximum degree 1 and the number of pages is the maximum degree. Bernhart and Kainen conjectured every k-regular bipartite graph is dispersable. Forty years…
In this paper we study the problem of augmenting a planar graph such that it becomes 3-regular and remains planar. We show that it is NP-hard to decide whether such an augmentation exists. On the other hand, we give an efficient algorithm…
