We connect k-triangulations of a convex n-gon to the theory of Schubert polynomials. We use this connection to prove that the simplicial complex with k-triangulations as facets is a vertex-decomposable triangulated sphere, and we give a new…

We prove a relatively simple combinatorial characterization of simplicial $d$-spheres on $d+4$ vertices. Our criteria are given in terms of the intersection patterns of a simplicial complex's family of minimal non-faces. Namely, let…

We determine the combinatorial types of all the 3-dimensional simple convex polytopes in R^3 that can be realized as mean curvature convex (or totally geodesic) Riemannian polyhedra with non-obtuse dihedral angles in Riemannian 3-manifolds…

Motivated by strong desire to understand the natural geometry of moduli spaces of hyperbolic monopoles, we introduce and study a new type of geometry: pluricomplex geometry. It is a generalisation of hypercomplex geometry: we still have a…

We characterize the combinatorial types of stacked d-polytopes that are inscribable. Equivalently, we identify the triangulations of a simplex by stellar subdivisions that can be realized as Delaunay triangulations.

We classify the topological types for the unions of the totally geodesic 3-punctured spheres in orientable hyperbolic 3-manifolds. General types of the unions appear in various hyperbolic 3-manifolds. Each of the special types of the unions…

We prove a topological extension of Dirac's theorem suggested by Gowers in 2005: for any connected, closed surface $\mathscr{S}$, we show that any two-dimensional simplicial complex on $n$ vertices in which each pair of vertices belongs to…

For each integer $n\ge 2$, we construct infinitely many $n$-component Brunnian links of 3-balls in $S^4$. Our main tool is the third author's result on the existence of splitting spheres for the trivial two-component link of $2$-spheres in…

A cubical polytope is a polytope with all its facets being combinatorially equivalent to cubes. The paper is concerned with the linkedness of the graphs of cubical polytopes. A graph with at least $2k$ vertices is $k$-linked if, for every…

For each integer \( n \geq 3 \), we construct a self-dual regular 3-polytope \( \mathcal{P} \) of type \( \{n, n\} \) with \( 2^n n \) flags, resolving two foundamental open questions on the existence of regular polytopes with certain…

We show that if an open set in $\mathbb{R}^d$ can be fibered by unit $n$-spheres, then $d \geq 2n+1$, and if $d = 2n+1$, then the spheres must be pairwise linked, and $n \in \left\{ 0, 1, 3, 7 \right\}$. For these values of $n$, we…

Which convex 3D polyhedra can be obtained by gluing several regular hexagons edge-to-edge? It turns out that there are only 15 possible types of shapes, 5 of which are doubly-covered 2D polygons. We give examples for most of them, including…

In combinatorial topology we aim to triangulate manifolds such that their topological properties are reflected in the combinatorial structure of their description. Here, we give a combinatorial criterion on when exactly triangulations of…

Consider a polygon P and all neighboring circles (circles going through three consecutive vertices of P). We say that a neighboring circle is extremal if it is empty (no vertices of P inside) or full (no vertices of P outside). It is well…

Spherical t-designs are Chebyshev-type averaging sets on the d-sphere S^d which are exact for polynomials of degree at most t. This concept was introduced in 1977 by Delsarte, Goethals, and Seidel, who also found the minimum possible size…

In 1995, Josckusch constructed an infinite family of centrally symmetric (cs, for short) triangulations of $3$-spheres that are cs-$2$-neighborly. Recently, Novik and Zheng extended Jockusch's construction: for all $d$ and $n>d$, they…

Kalai proved that the simplicial polytopes with g_2=0 are the stacked polytopes. We characterize the g_2=1 case. Specifically, we prove that every simplicial d-polytope (d>=4) which is prime and with g_2=1 is combinatorially equivalent…

Edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by congruent quadrilaterals are completely classified in a series of three papers. This second one applies the powerful tool of trigonometric Diophantine equations to classify the case of…

K3 polytopes appear in complements of tropical quartic surfaces. They are dual to regular unimodular central triangulations of reflexive polytopes in the fourth dilation of the standard tetrahedron. Exploring these combinatorial objects, we…

For $d\geq 4$, Kalai (1987) characterized all simplicial $(d-1)$-spheres with $g_2=0$, and for $k\geq 2$ and $d\geq 2k$, Murai and Nevo (2013) characterized all simplicial $(d-1)$-spheres with $g_k=0$. In addition, for $d\geq 4$, Nevo and…
