We construct "pushing maps" on the cube complexes that model right-angled Artin groups (RAAGs) in order to study filling problems in certain subsets of these cube complexes. We use radial pushing to obtain upper bounds on higher divergence…
An edge-girth-regular graph $egr(v,k,g,\lambda)$, is a $k$-regular graph of order $v$, girth $g$ and with the property that each of its edges is contained in exactly $\lambda$ distinct $g$-cycles. An $egr(v,k,g,\lambda)$ is called extremal…
A directed acyclic graph G = (V, E) is pseudo-transitive with respect to a given subset of edges E1, if for any edge ab in E1 and any edge bc in E, we have ac in E. We give algorithms for computing longest chains and demonstrate geometric…
It is known that a Delsarte $t$-design in a $Q$-polynomial association scheme has degree at least $\left \lceil{\frac{t}{2}}\right \rceil $. Following Ionin and Shrikhande who studied combinatorial $(2s-1)$-designs (i.e., Delsarte designs…
We extend the work of Cremona, Fisher and Stoll on minimising genus one curves of degrees 2,3,4,5, to some of the other representations associated to genus one curves, as studied by Bhargava and Ho. Specifically we describe algorithms for…
We present an algorithm that, for every fixed genus $g$, will enumerate all hyperelliptic curves of genus $g$ over a finite field $k$ of odd characteristic in quasilinear time; that is, the time required for the algorithm is…
Given a set of $m$ points and a set of $n$ lines in the plane, we consider the problem of computing the faces of the arrangement of the lines that contain at least one point. In this paper, we present an $O(m^{2/3}n^{2/3}+(n+m)\log n)$ time…
We show that a set of $n$ algebraic plane curves of constant maximum degree can be cut into $O(n^{3/2}\operatorname{polylog} n)$ Jordan arcs, so that each pair of arcs intersect at most once, i.e., they form a collection of pseudo-segments.…
For two independent Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graphs $\mathbf G(n,p)$, we study the maximal overlap (i.e., the number of common edges) of these two graphs over all possible vertex correspondence. We present a polynomial-time algorithm which finds a…
A planar orthogonal drawing {\Gamma} of a connected planar graph G is a geometric representation of G such that the vertices are drawn as distinct points of the plane, the edges are drawn as chains of horizontal and vertical segments, and…
Every maximum scattered linear set in $\mathrm{PG}(1,q^5)$ is the projection of an $\mathbb{F}_q$-subgeometry $\Sigma$ of $\mathrm{PG}(4,q^5)$ from a plane $\Gamma$ external to the secant variety to $\Sigma$. The pair $(\Gamma,\Sigma)$ will…
An $n$-arc in a projective plane is a collection of $n$ distinct points in the plane, no three of which lie on a line. Formulas counting the number of $n$-arcs in any finite projective plane of order $q$ are known for $n \le 8$. In 1995,…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field and $\alpha$, $\beta$, $\gamma$ be partitions. An algebraic group acts on the constructible set of short exact sequences of nilpotent $k$-linear operators of Jordan types $\alpha$, $\beta$, and…
We investigate the maximal degree in a Poisson-Delaunay graph in $\mathbf{R}^d$, $d\geq 2$, over all nodes in the window $\mathbf{W}_\rho:= \rho^{1/d}[0,1]^d$ as $\rho$ goes to infinity. The exact order of this maximum is provided in any…
Ovoids of the Klein quadric $Q^+(5,q)$ of $\mathrm{PG}(5,q)$ have been studied in the last 40 year, also because of their connection with spreads of $\mathrm{PG}(3,q)$ and hence translation planes. Beside the classical example given by a…
This paper is a continuation of \ct{cmf16} where an efficient algorithm for computing the maximal eigenpair was introduced first for tridiagonal matrices and then extended to the irreducible matrices with nonnegative off-diagonal elements.…
For a given digraph $D$ and distinct $u,v \in V(D)$, we denote by $\lambda_D(u,v)$ the local arc-connectivity from $u$ to $v$. Further, we define the total arc-connectivity $tac(D)$ of $D$ to be $\sum_{\{u,v\}\subseteq…
