We determine the minimum number of vertices needed to provide balanced triangulations of $\mathbb S^{d-2}$-bundles over $\mathbb S^1$. If $d$ is odd and the bundle is orientable, or $d$ is even and the bundle is non-orientable, the minimum…
We study $d$-dimensional simplicial complexes that are PL embeddable in $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$. It is shown that such a complex must satisfy a certain homological condition. The existence of this obstruction allows us to provide a systematic…
In this survey on combinatorial properties of triangulated manifolds we discuss various lower bounds on the number of vertices of simplicial and combinatorial manifolds. Moreover, we give a list of all known examples of vertex-minimal…
This paper studies the minimal number of vertices $\lambda(n,d)$ required in a triangulation of the $n$-sphere to admit a simplicial map to the boundary of a $(n+1)$-simplex with a given degree $d$. We establish upper bounds for…
In this survey article, we are interested on minimal triangulations of closed pl manifolds. We present a brief survey on the works done in last 25 years on the following: (i) Finding the minimal number of vertices required to triangulate a…
We study two optimization problems on simplicial complexes with homology over $\mathbb{Z}_2$, the minimum bounded chain problem: given a $d$-dimensional complex $\mathcal{K}$ embedded in $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ and a null-homologous…
Attending to an open problem in the literature stated by Mirzakhani and Vondr\'ak, we give a lower bound of the number of non-monochromatic simplices for Sperner labelings of the vertices of a triangulation of a given $ k$-simplex with…
While sporadic examples of virtual resolutions with homology have been constructed, their occurrence is not well understood or controlled. Our results build a new set of tools for studying virtual resolutions of monomial ideals as arising…
We consider $d$-dimensional simplicial complexes which can be PL embedded in the $2d$-dimensional euclidean space. In short, we show that in any such complex, for any three vertices, the intersection of the link-complexes of the vertices is…
We study lower bounds for the number of vertices in a PL-triangulation of a given manifold $M$. While most of the previous estimates are based on the dimension and the connectivity of $M$, we show that further information can be extracted…
Products of simplices, called simplotopes, and their triangulations arise naturally in algorithmic applications in game theory and optimization. We develop techniques to derive lower bounds for the size of simplicial covers and…
A $d$-dimensional simplicial complex is balanced if the underlying graph is $(d+1)$-colorable. We present an implementation of cross-flips, a set of local moves introduced by Izmestiev, Klee and Novik which connect any two PL-homeomorphic…
How complex must two finite 2-complexes be to admit a common, but not finite common, covering? We obtain an almost answer: the minimum possible number of triangles in a pseudo-simplicial triangulation of each complex is 3, 4, or 5.
We provide a simple characterization of simplicial complexes on few vertices that embed into the $d$-sphere. Namely, a simplicial complex on $d+3$ vertices embeds into the $d$-sphere if and only if its non-faces do not form an intersecting…
Let $S$ be a $k$-colored (finite) set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\geq 3$, in general position, that is, no {$(d + 1)$} points of $S$ lie in a common $(d - 1)$}-dimensional hyperplane. We count the number of empty monochromatic…
We study a higher-dimensional analogue of the {Random Travelling Salesman Problem}: let the complete $d$-dimensional simplicial complex $K_n^{d}$ on $n$ vertices be equipped with i.i.d.\ volumes on its facets, uniformly random in $[0,1]$.…
The diameter of a strongly connected $d$-dimensional simplicial complex is the diameter of its dual graph. We provide a probabilistic proof of the existence of $d$-dimensional simplicial complexes with diameter $ (\frac{1}{d \cdot d!} -…
For any natural $d \ge k \ge 2$ we calculate the cohomology groups of the space of homogeneous polynomials $R^2 \to R$ of degree $d$, which do not vanish with multiplicity $\ge k$ on real lines. For $k=2$ this problem provides the simplest…
We consider two problems on simplicial complexes: the Optimal Bounded Chain Problem and the Optimal Homologous Chain Problem. The Optimal Bounded Chain Problem asks to find the minimum weight $d$-chain in a simplicial complex $K$ bounded by…
In this note we present a natural generalization of the minimum angle condition, commonly used in the finite element analysis for planar triangulations, to the case of simplicial meshes in any space dimension. The equivalence of this…
