Given a graph $G$ one can define the cut polytope CUTP(G) and the metric polytope METP(G) of this graph and those polytopes encode in a nice way the metric on the graph. According to Seymour's theorem, CUTP(G) = METP(G) if and only if K_5…

In this paper, we characterize all possible h-vectors of 2-dimensional Buchsbaum simplicial complexes.

This paper introduces a new method to solve the problem of the approximation of the diagonal for face-coherent families of polytopes. We recover the classical cases of the simplices and the cubes and we solve it for the associahedra, also…

We resolve a conjecture of Kalai asserting that the $g_2$-number of any simplicial complex $\Delta$ that represents a connected normal pseudomanifold of dimension $d\geq 3$ is at least as large as ${d+2 \choose 2}m(\Delta)$, where…

In this paper, we first generalize a theorem for counting the number of faces of an oriented embedding of a graph that passing through a given cut-edge set [S. Stahl, Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 259 (1980), 129--145] to all surfaces. Then we…

Building on the one-to-one relationship between generalized FGM copulas and multivariate Bernoulli distributions, we prove that the class of multivariate distributions with generalized FGM copulas is a convex polytope. Therefore, we find…

The search for a highly discriminating and easily computable invariant to distinguish graphs remains a challenging research topic. Here we focus on cospectral graphs whose complements are also cospectral (generalized cospectral), and on…

Given a configuration $A$ of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^{d-1}$, we introduce the higher secondary polytopes $\Sigma_{A,1},\dots, \Sigma_{A,n-d}$, which have the property that $\Sigma_{A,1}$ agrees with the secondary polytope of…

We show that there are $f$-vectors of balanced simplicial complexes giving a source of simplicial complexes exhibiting a Boolean decomposition similar to a geometric Lefschetz decomposition. The objects we are working with are $h$-vectors…

Let P be a random $d$-dimensional 0/1-polytope with $n(d)$ vertices, and denote by $\phi_k(P)$ the \emph{$k$-face density} of $P$, i.e., the quotient of the number of $k$-dimensional faces of $P$ and $\binom{n(d)}{k+1}$. For each $k\ge 2$,…

Denham, Suciu and Panov, Ray computed ranks of homotopy groups and Poincar\'e series of a moment-angle-complex $\mathcal Z(\mathcal K$) / Davis-Januzskiewicz space $DJ(\mathcal K)$ associated to a flag simplicial complex $\mathcal K$. In…

Representations of nonnegative polynomials as sums of squares are central to real algebraic geometry and the subject of active research. The sum-of-squares representations of a given polynomial are parametrized by the convex body of…

In this article, we provide a simple and systematic way to represent general (inhomogeneous) fractals that may look different at different scales and places. By using set-valued compression maps, we express these general fractals as…

We show that various identities from [1] and [3] involving Gould-Hopper polynomials can be deduced from the real but also complex orthogonal invariance of multivariate Gaussian distributions. We also deduce from this principle a useful…

Wythoff's construction associates a uniform polytope to a Coxeter diagram whose vertices are decorated with crosses, which indicate the subgroup stabilizing a generic point. Champagne, Kjiri, Patera, and Sharp remarked that by associating…

Facets of the convex hull of $n$ independent random vectors chosen uniformly at random from the unit sphere in $\mathbb{R}^d$ are studied. A particular focus is given on the height of the facets as well as the expected number of facets as…

The mapping class group of a closed surface of genus $g$ is an extension of the Torelli group by the symplectic group. This leads to two natural problems: (a) compute (stably) the symplectic decomposition of the lower central series of the…

Consider the question: Given integers $k<d<n$, does there exist a simple $d$-polytope with $n$ faces of dimension $k$? We show that there exist numbers $G(d,k)$ and $N(d,k)$ such that for $n> N(d,k)$ the answer is yes if and only if…

We study polytopes associated to factorisations of prime powers. These polytopes have explicit descriptions either in terms of their vertices or as intersections of closed halfspaces associated to their facets. We give formulae for their…

We study a generating function for the sum over fatgraphs with specified valences of vertices and faces, inversely weighted by the order of their symmetry group. A compact expression is found for general (i.e. non necessarily connected)…
