We prove that for all $d \geq 1$ a shellable $d$-dimensional simplicial complex with at most $d+3$ vertices is extendably shellable. The proof involves considering the structure of `exposed' edges in chordal graphs as well as a connection…

We completely determine all cancellable elements in the lattice OC of overcommutative semigroup varieties. In particular, we prove that an overcommutative semigroup variety is a cancellable element of the lattice OC if and only if it is a…

Reid asked whether all convex-cocompact subgroups of mapping class groups are separable. Using a construction of Manning-Mj-Sageev, we give examples of separable convex-cocompact subgroups that are free of arbitrary finite rank, while prior…

We introduce and study strongly vertex dismissible, vertex dismissible, and scalable simplicial complexes as non-pure extensions of vertex decomposability and shellability. Strong vertex dismissibility is defined recursively by relaxing the…

We introduce a class of countable groups by some abstract group-theoretic conditions. It includes linear groups with finite amenable radical and finitely generated residually finite groups with some non-vanishing $\ell^2$-Betti numbers that…

We show that every graph admits a canonical tree-like decomposition into its $k$-edge-connected pieces for all $k\in\mathbb{N}\cup\{\infty\}$ simultaneously.

We disprove a long-standing open conjecture due to Simon stating that all skeleta of simplices are extendably shellable. In particular, for every $d \geq 3$ we provide a pure $d$-dimensional shellable simplicial complex which is not…

We proved in another paper that every connected graph can be realized as the cut locus of some point on some riemannian surface. Here we give upper bounds on the number of such realizations.

The Bourque-Ligh conjecture states that if $S=\{x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_n\}$ is a gcd-closed set of positive integers with distinct elements, then the LCM matrix $[S]=[\hbox{lcm}(x_i,x_j)]$ is invertible. It is well known that this conjecture…

We study mechanical structures composed of spatial four-bar linkages that are bistable, that is, they allow for two distinct configurations. They have an interpretation as quad nets in the Study quadric which can be used to prove existence…

We construct a nonuniform lattice and an infinite family of uniform lattices in the automorphism group of a hyperbolic building with all links a fixed finite building of rank 2 associated to a Chevalley group. We use complexes of groups and…

Let $\delta_0(P,k)$ denote the degree $k$ dilation of a point set $P$ in the domain of plane geometric spanners. If $\Lambda$ is the infinite square lattice, it is shown that $1+\sqrt{2} \leq \delta_0(\Lambda,3) \leq (3+2\sqrt2) \, 5^{-1/2}…

Let $\Delta$ be a spherical building each of whose irreducible components is infinite, has rank at least 2 and satisfies the Moufang condition. We show that $\Delta$ can be given the structure of a topological building that is compact and…

It was shown in \cite{sc12} that for a certain class of structures $\I$, $\I$-indexed indiscernible sets have the modeling property just in case the age of $\I$ is a Ramsey class. We expand this known class of structures from ordered…

We prove that every finite lattice L can be embedded in a three-generated finite lattice K. We also prove that every algebraic lattice with accessible cardinality is a complete sublattice of an appropriate algebraic lattice K such that K is…

An edge e in a matching covered graph G is removable if G-e is matching covered; a pair {e; f} of edges of G is a removable doubleton if G-e-f is matching covered, but neither G-e nor G-f is. Removable edges and removable doubletons are…

If $\Gamma$ is an irreducible non-uniform higher-rank characteristic zero arithmetic lattice (for example, $SL_n(\mathbb{Z})$, $n \geq 3$) and $\Lambda$ is a finitely generated group that is elementarily equivalent to $\Gamma$, then…

We consider problems concerning the partial order structure of the set of spreading models of Banach spaces. We construct examples of spaces showing that the possible structure of these sets include certain classes of finite semi-lattices…

Any nonpositively curved symmetric space admits a topological compactification, namely the Hadamard compactification. For rank one spaces, this topological compactification can be endowed with a differentiable structure such that the action…

We introduce the blockwise gluing construction. This describes residuated integral chains which can be decomposed into (possibly) partial algebras, stacked one on top of the other, and such that elements in a certain component multiply in…
