We show that a realization of a closed connected PL-manifold of dimension n-1 in n-dimensional Euclidean space (n>2) is the boundary of a convex polyhedron (finite or infinite) if and only if the interior of each (n-3)-face has a point,…

In their celebrated paper [Ramsey-Type Theorems, Discrete Appl. Math. 25 (1989) 37-52], Erd\H{o}s and Hajnal asked the following: is it true, that for any finite graph H there exists a constant c(H) such that for any finite graph G, if G…

Integrally convex functions constitute a fundamental function class in discrete convex analysis. This paper shows that an integer-valued integrally convex function admits an integral subgradient and that the integral biconjugate of an…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a bipartite graph embedded in a plane (or $n$-holed torus). Two subgraphs of $G$ differ by a {\it $Z$-transformation} if their symmetric difference consists of the boundary edges of a single face---and if each subgraph…

In the paper we consider convex cones in infinite-dimensional real vector spaces which are endowed with no topology. The main purpose is to study an internal geometric structure of convex cones and to obtain an analytical description of…

The cosmological polytope of a graph $G$ was recently introduced to give a geometric approach to the computation of wavefunctions for cosmological models with associated Feynman diagram $G$. Basic results in the theory of positive…

Geodesic convexity (g-convexity) is a natural generalization of convexity to Riemannian manifolds. However, g-convexity lacks many desirable properties satisfied by Euclidean convexity. For instance, the natural notions of half-spaces and…

Counting the number of homomorphisms of a pattern graph H in a large input graph G is a fundamental problem in computer science. There are myriad applications of this problem in databases, graph algorithms, and network science. Often, we…

We propose a holographic dual of a conformal field theory defined on a manifold with boundaries, i.e. boundary conformal field theory (BCFT). Our new holography, which may be called AdS/BCFT, successfully calculates the boundary entropy or…

A geometric graph is a drawing of a graph in the plane where the vertices are drawn as points in general position and the edges as straight-line segments connecting their endpoints. It is plane if it contains no crossing edges. We study…

The purpose of this paper is the formal verification of a counterexample of Santos et al. to the so-called Hirsch Conjecture on the diameter of polytopes (bounded convex polyhedra). In contrast with the pen-and-paper proof, our approach is…

For a finite connected graph $\mathcal{E}$ with set of edges $E$, a finite $E$-generated group $G$ is constructed such that the set of relations $p=1$ satisfied by $G$ (with $p$ a word over $E\cup E^{-1}$) is closed under deletion of…

A polyhedral surface~$\mathcal{C}$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with convex polygons as faces is a side-contact representation of a graph~$G$ if there is a bijection between the vertices of $G$ and the faces of~$\mathcal{C}$ such that the polygons of…

For graphs $G$ and $H$, a homomorphism from $G$ to $H$ is a function $\varphi \colon V(G) \to V(H)$, which maps vertices adjacent in $G$ to adjacent vertices of $H$. A homomorphism is locally injective if no two vertices with a common…

Let S be a compact surface with boundary and F be the set of the orbits of a traversing flow on S. If the flow is generic, its orbit space is a spine G of S, namely G is a graph embedded in S and S is a regular neighbourhood of G. Moreover…

Circular arc graphs are graphs whose vertices can be represented as arcs on a circle such that any two vertices are adjacent if and only if their corresponding arcs intersect. Proper circular arc graphs are graphs which have a circular arc…

Holomorphic functions of exponential type on a complex Lie group $G$ (introduced by Akbarov) form a locally convex algebra, which is denoted by $\cO_{exp}(G)$. Our aim is to describe the structure of $\cO_{exp}(G)$ in the case when $G$ is…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple connected graph. A connected edge cover of $G$ is a subset $S\subseteq E$ such that every vertex of $G$ is incident with at least one edge in $S$ and the subgraph induced by $S$ is connected. The connected edge…

Let $G$ be a graph embedded in a surface and let $\mathcal F$ be a set of even faces of $G$ (faces bounded by a cycle of even length). The resonance graph of $G$ with respect to $\mathcal F$, denoted by $R(G;\mathcal F)$, is a graph such…

A graph $G$ embedded in a surface $S$ is called an $S$-grid when every facial boundary walk has length four, that is, the topological dual graph of $G$ in $S$ is 4-regular. Aside from the case where $S$ is the torus or Klein bottle, an…
