We introduce a notion of $k$-convexity and explore polygons in the plane that have this property. Polygons which are \mbox{$k$-convex} can be triangulated with fast yet simple algorithms. However, recognizing them in general is a 3SUM-hard…

Stack triangulations appear as natural objects when defining an increasing family of triangulations by successive additions of vertices. We consider two different probability distributions for such objects. We represent, or "draw" these…

We describe a new algorithm to compute the geometric intersection number between two curves, given as edge vectors on an ideal triangulation. Most importantly, this algorithm runs in polynomial time in the bit-size of the two edge vectors.…

We give a characterization of finite sets of triples of elements (e.g., positive integers) that can be colored with two colors such that for every element $i$ in each color class there exists a triple which does not contain $i$. We give a…

We prove that the number of dissections of a given polygon into triangles with fixed areas of faces is finite and that an equidissection is algebraic as long as the vertices of the original polygon have algebraic coordinates.

Let P be a set of n points in general position in the plane. We study the chromatic number of the intersection graph of the open triangles determined by P. It is known that this chromatic number is at least n^3/27+O(n^2), and if P is in…

Fairness of decision-making algorithms is an increasingly important issue. In this paper, we focus on spectral clustering with group fairness constraints, where every demographic group is represented in each cluster proportionally as in the…

We study some properties convex functions fulfill. Among the conclusions we obtain from such result, we are able to prove some nontrivial inequalities among real numbers, and we give an improvement of the reverse triangle inequality in the…

The vertex-edge marking game is played between two players on a graph, $G=(V,E)$, with one player marking vertices and the other marking edges. The players want to minimize/maximize, respectively, the number of marked edges incident to an…

Given a graph $G=(V, E)$ and a list of available colors $L(v)$ for each vertex $v\in V$, where $L(v) \subseteq \{1, 2, \ldots, k\}$, List $k$-Coloring refers to the problem of assigning colors to the vertices of $G$ so that each vertex…

We obtain tilings with a singular point by applying conformal maps on regular tilings of the Euclidean plane, and determine its symmetries. The resulting tilings are then symmetrically colored by applying the same conformal maps on…

We prove that any convex body in the plane can be partitioned into $m$ convex parts of equal areas and perimeters for any integer $m\ge 2$; this result was previously known for prime powers $m=p^k$. We also discuss possible…

We present a detailed study of the combinatorial interpretation of matrix integrals, including the examples of tessellations of arbitrary genera, and loop models on random surfaces. After reviewing their methods of solution, we apply these…

A first step in investigating colour symmetries of periodic and nonperiodic patterns is determining the number of colours which allow perfect colourings of the pattern under consideration. A perfect colouring is one where each symmetry of…

We prove that the problem of counting the number of colourings of the vertices of a graph with at most two colours, such that the colour classes induce connected subgraphs is #P-complete. We also show that the closely related problem of…

The convex hulls of face-vertex incident vectors of 3-face-colorable convex polytopes are computed. It is found that every such convex hull is a $d$-polytope with $d+2$ or $d+3$ vertices. Utilizing Gale transform and Gale diagram, we…

We consider arrangements of axis-aligned rectangles in the plane. A geometric arrangement specifies the coordinates of all rectangles, while a combinatorial arrangement specifies only the respective intersection type in which each pair of…

Starting from any given rational-sided, right triangle, for example the $(3,4,5)$-triangle with area $6$, we use Euclidean geometry to show that there are infinitely many other rational-sided, right triangles of the same area. We show…

A coloring of the vertices of a connected graph is convex if each color class induces a connected subgraph. We address the convex recoloring (CR) problem defined as follows. Given a graph $G$ and a coloring of its vertices, recolor a…

We describe some theoretical results on triangulations of surfaces and we develop a theory on roots, decompositions and genus-surfaces. We apply this theory to describe an algorithm to list all triangulations of closed surfaces with at most…
