We study several properties of $\ZZ_2^n$-equivariant triangulations of $\RR P^n$. We show that a $\ZZ_2^n$-equivariant triangulation of $\RR P^n$ induces a triangulated subdivision of the orbit space $\bigtriangleup^n$. We show that any…

Small covers were introduced by Davis and Januszkiewicz in 1991. We introduce the notion of equilibrium triangulations for small covers. We study equilibrium and vertex minimal $\mathbb{Z}_2^2$-equivariant triangulations of $2$-dimensional…

In this paper we study the (equivariant) topological types of a class of 3-dimensional closed manifolds (i.e., 3-dimensional small covers), each of which admits a locally standard $(\mathbb{Z}_2)^3$-action such that its orbit space is a…

P. Arnoux and A. Marin showed that any triangulation of $\mathbb{RP}^n$ contains more than $\frac{(n+1)(n+2)}{2}$ vertices if $n \geq 3$. We construct some natural triangulation of $\mathbb{RP}^n$ with $\frac{n(n+5)}{2}-1$ vertices for all…

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 certain orientation-preserving involutions on three-dimensional small covers. We prove that the quotient space of an orientable three-dimensional small cover by such an involution in $\mathbb{Z}_2^3$ is homeomorphic to a connected…

In 1983, Banchoff and Kuhnel constructed a minimal triangulation of $\CP^2$ with 9 vertices. $\CP^3$ was first triangulated by Bagchi and Datta in 2012 with 18 vertices. Known lower bound on number of vertices of a triangulation of $\CP^n$…

A triangulated $d$-manifold $K$, satisfies the inequality $\binom{f_0(K)-d-1}{2}\geq \binom{d+2}{2}\beta_1(K;\mathbb{Z}_2)$ for $d\geq 3$. The triangulated $d$-manifolds that meet the bound with equality are called {\em tight neighborly}.…

We introduce some compact orbifolds on which there is a certain finite group action having a simple convex polytope as the orbit space. We compute the orbifold fundamental group and homology groups of these orbifolds. We calculate the…

We prove the following results on flag triangulations of 2- and 3-manifolds. In dimension 2, we prove that the vertex-minimal flag triangulations of $\mathbb{R} P^2$ and $\mathbb{S}^1\times \mathbb{S}^1$ have 11 and 12 vertices,…

A small cover is a closed smooth manifold of dimension $n$ having a locally standard $\mathbb{Z}_2^n$-action whose orbit space is isomorphic to a simple polytope. A typical example of small covers is a real projective toric manifold (or,…

We introduce the notion of the \emph{equivariant covering type} of a space $X$ on which a finite group $G$ acts, and study its properties. The equivariant covering type measures the size of $G$-equivariant good covers of $X$ and is thus an…

A small cover was introduced by Davis and Januszkiewicz as an $n$-dimensional closed manifold with a locally standard $Z_2)^n$-action such that its orbit space is a simple convex polytope. There exist a one-to-one correspondence between…

In a recent publication (D. Govc, W. Marzantowicz, P. Pavesic, Estimates of covering type and the number of vertices of minimal triangulations, Discr. Comp. Geom. 63 (2019), 31-48) we have introduced a new method, based on the…

In this paper, we explore minimal contact triangulations on contact 3-manifolds. We give many explicit examples of contact triangulations that are close to minimal ones. The main results of this article say that on any closed oriented…

We have introduced the weight of a group which has a presentation with number of relations is at most the number of generators. We have shown that the number of facets of any contracted pseudotriangulation of a connected closed 3-manifold…

This paper introduces even triangulations of n-dimensional pseudo-manifolds and links their combinatorics to the topology of the pseudo-manifolds. This is done via normal hypersurface theory and the study of certain symmetric…

We give three constructions of a vertex-minimal triangulation of $4$-dimensional real projective space $\mathbb{R}P^4$. The first construction describes a $4$-dimensional sphere on $32$ vertices, which is a double cover of a triangulated…

Let $G/H$ be a symmetric space of a complex linear algebraic group $G$ and let $X$ be a nonsingular equivariant compactification of $G/H$. We investigate the question: when are minimal rational curves on $X$ orbit-closures of 1-parameter…

We study the surface $\mathcal{W}_k : x^2 + y^2 + z^2 + x^2 y^2 z^2 = k x y z$ in $(\mathbb{P}^1)^3$, a tri-involutive K3 (TIK3) surface. We explain a phenomenon noticed by Fuchs, Litman, Silverman, and Tran: over a finite field of order…
