A combinatorial tiling of the sphere is naturally given by an embedded graph. We study the case that each tile has exactly five edges, with the ultimate goal of classifying combinatorial tilings of the sphere by geometrically congruent…
Let $\mathscr{O}(P)$ and $\mathscr{C}(P)$ denote the order polytope and chain polytope, respectively, associated with a finite poset $P$. We prove the following result: if $P$ is a maximal ranked poset, then the number of triangular…
If all but two vertices of a triangulated sphere have degrees divisible by $k$, then the exceptional vertices are not adjacent. This theorem is proved for $k=2$ with the help of the coloring monodromy. For $k = 3, 4, 5$ colorings by the…
We examine the lattice of all order congruences of a finite poset from the viewpoint of combinatorial algebraic topology. We will prove that the order complex of the lattice of all nontrivial order congruences (or order-preserving…
In this paper, plane polynomial systems having a singular point attracting all orbits in positive time are classified up to topological equivalence. This is done by assigning a combinatorial invariant to the system (a so-called "feasible…
We classify finite posets with a particular sorting property, generalizing a result for rectangular arrays. Each poset is covered by two sets of disjoint saturated chains such that, for any original labeling, after sorting the labels along…
In the present paper, we show that many combinatorial and topological objects, such as maps, hypermaps, three-dimensional pavings, constellations and branched coverings of the two--sphere admit any given finite automorphism group. This…
We develop a tighter implementation of basic PL topology, which keeps track of some combinatorial structure beyond PL homeomorphism type. With this technique we clarify some aspects of PL transversality and give combinatorial proofs of a…
S.Janson [Poset limits and exchangeable random posets, Combinatorica 31 (2011), 529--563] defined limits of finite posets in parallel to the emerging theory of limits of dense graphs. We prove that each poset limit can be represented as a…
If $L$ is a list assignment of $r$ colors to each vertex of an $n$-vertex graph $G$, then an equitable $L$-coloring of $G$ is a proper coloring of vertices of $G$ from their lists such that no color is used more than $\lceil n/r\rceil$…
We interpret the number of good four-colourings of the faces of a trivalent, spherical polyhedron as the 2-holonomy of the 2-connection of a fibered category, phi, modeled on Rep(sl(2)) and defined over the dual triangulation, T. We also…
In this paper, we explore combinatorial properties of the posets associated with Kohnert polynomials. In particular, we determine a sufficient condition guaranteeing when such ``Kohnert posets'' are bounded and two necessary conditions for…
A facial unique-maximum coloring of a plane graph is a proper vertex coloring by natural numbers where on each face $\alpha$ the maximal color appears exactly once on the vertices of $\alpha$. Fabrici and G\"oring proved that six colors are…
A partially ordered set P is representable if there is a bounded distributive lattice such that its ordered set of prime ideals is order-isomorphic to P. We show that if the order components of a poset P are representable, then so is P.…
We prove that the rank polynomial of the lattice of order ideals of a loop fence poset is unimodal. This poset arises as the poset of join-irreducibles in the lattice of good matchings of loop graphs associated with notched arcs.…
A poset is representable if it can be embedded in a field of sets in such a way that existing finite meets and joins become intersections and unions respectively (we say finite meets and joins are preserved). More generally, for cardinals…
We show that, for any prime $p$ and integer $k \geq 2$, a simple GF($p$)-representable matroid with sufficiently high rank has a rank-$k$ flat which is either independent in $M$, or is a projective or affine geometry. As a corollary we…
In 1973, Fisk proved that any $4$-coloring of a $3$-colorable triangulation of the $2$-sphere can be obtained from any $3$-coloring by a sequence of Kempe-changes. On the other hand, in the case where we are only allowed to recolor a single…
We prove that for every integer $k$, every finite set of points in the plane can be $k$-colored so that every half-plane that contains at least $2k-1$ points, also contains at least one point from every color class. We also show that the…
A (convex) polytope $P$ is said to be $2$-level if for every direction of hyperplanes which is facet-defining for $P$, the vertices of $P$ can be covered with two hyperplanes of that direction. The study of these polytopes is motivated by…
