We prove a colorful generalization of the Borsuk--Ulam theorem and derive colorful consequences from it, such as a colorful generalization of the ham sandwich theorem. Even in the uncolored case this specializes to a strengthening of the…

We initiate the axiomatic study of affine oriented matroids (AOMs) on arbitrary ground sets, obtaining fundamental notions such as minors, reorientations and a natural embedding into the frame work of Complexes of Oriented Matroids. The…

We introduce the singular cohomology ring of a matroid which extends the Chow ring of a matroid. This is defined as the singular cohomology ring of a certain quasi-projective toric variety associated to the matroid. Using the matroidal…

Ramsey's theorem states that for any coloring of the n-element subsets of N with finitely many colors, there is an infinite set H such that all n-element subsets of H have the same color. The strength of consequences of Ramsey's theorem has…

The investigation of combinatorial diameters of polyhedra is a classical topic in linear programming due to its connection with the possibility of an efficient pivot rule for the simplex method. We are interested in the diameters of…

The chromatic number for properly colouring the facets of a combinatorial simple $n$-polytope $P^n$ that is the orbit space of a quasitoric manifold satisfies the inequality $n\leq P^n\leq 2^n-1$. The inequality is sharp for $n=2$ but not…

We consider colored compositions where only some parts are allowed different colors, depending on their locations in the composition. The counting sequences are obtained through generating functions. Connections to many other combinatorial…

We characterise the digraphs for which the multipaths, that is disjoint unions of directed paths, yield a matroid. For such graphs, called MP-digraphs, we prove that the Tutte polynomial of the multipath matroid is related to counting…

A classical question in combinatorial number theory asks whether an equation has a solution inside a particular subset of its domain. The Rado's Theorem gives a set of necessary and sufficient conditions for a systems of linear equations to…

We give a near-linear time 4-coloring algorithm for planar graphs, improving on the previous quadratic time algorithm by Robertson et al. from 1996. Such an algorithm cannot be achieved by the known proofs of the Four Color Theorem (4CT).…

Common mathematical theory can have profound applications in understanding real materials. The intrinsic connection between aperiodic orders observed in the Fibonacci sequence, Penrose tiling, and quasicrystals is a well-known example.…

In this paper we present a proof of the BMZ Reduction Lemma with a motivational perspective, and state this lemma for maps to manifolds using the classical definition of cohomological dimension. The lemma, proved and utilized in [4], gives…

We generalize a result of Tibor Gallai as follows: for any finite set of points $\mathcal{S}$ in the plane, if the plane is colored in finitely many colors, then there exist $2^{\aleph_0}$ monochromatic subsets of the plane homothetic to…

The Erd\H{o}s--Ko--Rado theorem is extended to designs in semilattices with certain conditions. As an application, we show the intersection theorems for the Hamming schemes, the Johnson schemes, bilinear forms schemes, Grassmann schemes,…

The topological Tverberg theorem has been generalized in several directions by setting extra restrictions on the Tverberg partitions. Restricted Tverberg partitions, defined by the idea that certain points cannot be in the same part, are…

A quasi-schemoid is a small category whose morphisms are colored with appropriate combinatorial data. In this note, Mitchell's embedding theorem for a tame schemoid is established. The result allows us to give a cofibrantly generated model…

A Gallai coloring of the complete graph is an edge-coloring with no rainbow triangle. This concept first appeared in the study of comparability graphs and anti-Ramsey theory. We introduce a transitive analogue for acyclic directed graphs,…

Colored operads were introduced in the 1970's for the purpose of studying homotopy invariant algebraic structures on topological spaces. In this paper we introduce colored operads in motivic stable homotopy theory. Our main motivation is to…

In this paper we have investigated some old issues concerning four color map problem. We have given a general method for constructing counter-examples to Kempe's proof of the four color theorem and then show that all counterexamples can be…

We identify a link between regular matroids and torus representations all of whose isotropy groups have an odd number of components. Applying Seymour's 1980 classification of the former objects, we obtain a classification of the latter. In…
