The diameter of the graph of a $d$-dimensional lattice polytope $P \subseteq [0,k]^{n}$ is known to be at most $dk$ due to work by Kleinschmidt and Onn. However, it is an open question whether the monotone diameter, the shortest guaranteed…

An abstract $n$-polytope $\mathcal{P}$ is a partially-ordered set which captures important properties of a geometric polytope, for any dimension $n$. For even $n \ge 2$, the incidences between elements in the middle two layers of the Hasse…

We report on image processing techniques and experimental procedures to determine the lattice-site positions of single atoms in an optical lattice with high reliability, even for limited acquisition time or optical resolution. Determining…

Discrete tomography is a well-established method to investigate finite point sets, in particular finite subsets of periodic systems. Here, we start to develop an efficient approach for the treatment of finite subsets of mathematical…

We show that P2T - the problem of deciding whether the edge set of a simple graph can be partitioned into two trees or not - is NP-complete.

Given a bipartite graph $G=(V_b,V_r,E)$, the $2$-Level Quasi-Planarity problem asks for the existence of a drawing of $G$ in the plane such that the vertices in $V_b$ and in $V_r$ lie along two parallel lines $\ell_b$ and $\ell_r$,…

We present subquadratic algorithms, in the algebraic decision-tree model of computation, for detecting whether there exists a triple of points, belonging to three respective sets $A$, $B$, and $C$ of points in the plane, that satisfy a…

Motivated by questions in robust control and switched linear dynamical systems, we consider the problem checking whether all convex combinations of k matrices in R^{n x n} are stable. In particular, we are interested whether there exist…

Let $S=\{K_{1,3},K_3,P_4\}$ be the set of connected graphs of size 3. We study the problem of partitioning the edge set of a graph $G$ into graphs taken from any non-empty $S'\subseteq S$. The problem is known to be NP-complete for any…

The Atomic Cluster Expansion (Drautz, Phys. Rev. B 99, 2019) provides a framework to systematically derive polynomial basis functions for approximating isometry and permutation invariant functions, particularly with an eye to modelling…

There have been suggestions to measure atomic parity nonconservation (PNC) along an isotopic chain, by taking ratios of observables in order to cancel complicated atomic structure effects. Precise atomic PNC measurements could make a…

The d-Cut problem is to decide if a graph has an edge cut such that each vertex has at most d neighbours at the opposite side of the cut. If $d=1$, we obtain the intensively studied Matching Cut problem. The d-Cut problem has been studied…

We show that the following problems are NP-complete. 1. Can the vertex set of a graph be partitioned into two sets such that each set induces a perfect graph? 2. Is the difference between the chromatic number and clique number at most $1$…

The purpose of this paper is to study convex bodies $C$ for which there exists no convex body $C^\prime\subsetneq C$ of the same lattice width. Such bodies shall be called ``lattice reduced'', and they occur naturally in the study of the…

The lattice diameter of a bounded set $S \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ measures the maximal number of lattice points in a segment whose endpoints are lattice points in $S$. Such a segment is called a lattice diameter segment of $S$. This simple…

We give an explicit combinatorial description of the two-dimensional faces of both the order polytope $\mathcal{O}(P)$ and the chain polytope $\mathcal{C}(P)$ of a partially ordered set $P$. Using these descriptions, we show that for any…

A star of length $ \ell $ is defined as the complete bipartite graph $ K_{1,\ell } $. In this paper we deal with the problem of edge decomposition of graphs into stars of varying lengths. Given a graph $ G $ and a list of integers…

We develop the analysis of x-ray intensity correlations from dilute ensembles of identical particles in a number of ways. First, we show that the 3D particle structure can be determined if the particles can be aligned with respect to a…

A seminal result in the theory of toric varieties, due to Knudsen, Mumford and Waterman (1973), asserts that for every lattice polytope $P$ there is a positive integer $k$ such that the dilated polytope $kP$ has a unimodular triangulation.…

Periodic point sets model all solid crystalline materials (crystals) whose atoms can be considered zero-sized points with or without atomic types. This paper addresses the fundamental problem of checking whether claimed crystals are novel,…
