We consider the problem of counting and classifying domino tilings of a quadriculated torus. The counting problem for rectangles was studied by Kasteleyn and we use many of his ideas. Domino tilings of planar regions can be represented by…
We give a simple proof of T. Stehling's result, that in any normal tiling of the plane with convex polygons with number of sides not less than six, all tiles except the finite number are hexagons.
We consider a subclass of tilings, the tilings obtained by cut and projection. Under somewhat standard assumptions, we show that the natural complexity function has polynomial growth. We compute its exponent \alpha in terms of the ranks of…
While many classes of cutting-planes are at the disposal of integer programming solvers, our scientific understanding is far from complete with regards to cutting-plane selection, i.e., the task of selecting a portfolio of cutting-planes to…
Partitioning large matrices is an important problem in distributed linear algebra computing (used in ML among others). Briefly, our goal is to perform a sequence of matrix algebra operations in a distributed manner (whenever possible) on…
A computationally challenging classical elimination theory problem is to compute polynomials which vanish on the set of tensors of a given rank. By moving away from computing polynomials via elimination theory to computing pseudowitness…
In the past three decades, the study of rhombus tilings and domino tilings of various plane regions has been a thriving subfield of enumerative combinatorics. Physicists classify such work as the study of dimer covers of finite graphs. In…
We discuss different approaches for the enumeration of triangulated surfaces. In particular, we enumerate all triangulated surfaces with 9 and 10 vertices. We also show how geometric realizations of orientable surfaces with few vertices can…
We introduce a new symmetry class of both boxed plane partitions and lozenge tilings of a hexagon, called the $\mathbf{r}$-block diagonal symmetry class, where $\mathbf{r}$ is an $n$-tuple of non-negative integers. We prove that the tiling…
We study the tiling of a two-dimensional region of the plane by $K$-cell one-dimensional tiles, or $K$-mers. Unlike previous studies, which typically allowed for one single value of $K$ or sometimes a small assortment of fixed values, here…
We consider the problem of partitioning a two-dimensional flat torus $T^2$ into $m$ sets in order to minimize the maximal diameter of a part. For $m \leqslant 25$ we give numerical estimates for the maximal diameter $d_m(T^2)$ at which the…
A tiling of the sphere by triangles, squares, or hexagons is convex if every vertex has at most 6, 4, or 3 polygons adjacent to it, respectively. Assigning an appropriate weight to any tiling, our main result is explicit formulas for the…
For stacked simplicial complexes, (special subclasses of such are: trees, triangulations of polygons, stacked polytopes), we give an explicit bijection between partitions of facets (for trees: edges), and partitions of vertices into…
In this work, we introduce and study the forbidden-vertices problem. Given a polytope P and a subset X of its vertices, we study the complexity of linear optimization over the subset of vertices of P that are not contained in X. This…
We prove the existence of periodic tessellations of $\mathbb{R}^N$ minimizing a general nonlocal perimeter functional, defined as the interaction between a set and its complement through a nonnegative kernel, which we assume to be either…
We first show that the tilings of a general domain form a lattice which we then undertake to decompose and generate without any redundance. To this end, we study extensively the relatively simple case of hexagons and their deformations. We…
Enumerating all 3-manifold triangulations of a given size is a difficult but increasingly important problem in computational topology. A key difficulty for enumeration algorithms is that most combinatorial triangulations must be discarded…
All ten symmetry classes of plane partitions that fit in a given box are known to be enumerated by simple product formulas, but there is still no unified proof for all of them. Progress towards this goal can be made by establishing…
In this paper, we study the structure of the set of tilings produced by any given tile-set. For better understanding this structure, we address the set of finite patterns that each tiling contains. This set of patterns can be analyzed in…
This paper investigates lozenge tilings of non-convex hexagonal regions and more specifically the asymptotic fluctuations of the tilings within and near the strip formed by opposite cuts in the regions, when the size of the regions tend to…
