  text: 'Given a finite point set P in general position in the plane, a full triangulation
    is a maximal straight-line embedded plane graph on P. A partial triangulation
    on P is a full triangulation of some subset P'' of P containing all extreme points
    in P. A bistellar flip on a partial triangulation either flips an edge, removes
    a non-extreme point of degree 3, or adds a point in P ⧵ P'' as vertex of degree
    3. The bistellar flip graph has all partial triangulations as vertices, and a
    pair of partial triangulations is adjacent if they can be obtained from one another
    by a bistellar flip. The goal of this paper is to investigate the structure of
    this graph, with emphasis on its connectivity. For sets P of n points in general
    position, we show that the bistellar flip graph is (n-3)-connected, thereby answering,
    for sets in general position, an open questions raised in a book (by De Loera,
    Rambau, and Santos) and a survey (by Lee and Santos) on triangulations. This matches
    the situation for the subfamily of regular triangulations (i.e., partial triangulations
    obtained by lifting the points and projecting the lower convex hull), where (n-3)-connectivity
    has been known since the late 1980s through the secondary polytope (Gelfand, Kapranov,
    Zelevinsky) and Balinski’s Theorem. Our methods also yield the following results
    (see the full version [Wagner and Welzl, 2020]): (i) The bistellar flip graph
    can be covered by graphs of polytopes of dimension n-3 (products of secondary
    polytopes). (ii) A partial triangulation is regular, if it has distance n-3 in
    the Hasse diagram of the partial order of partial subdivisions from the trivial
    subdivision. (iii) All partial triangulations are regular iff the trivial subdivision
    has height n-3 in the partial order of partial subdivisions. (iv) There are arbitrarily
    large sets P with non-regular partial triangulations, while every proper subset
    has only regular triangulations, i.e., there are no small certificates for the
    existence of non-regular partial triangulations (answering a question by F. Santos
    in the unexpected direction).'

  text: 'We define and study a discrete process that generalizes the convex-layer
    decomposition of a planar point set. Our process, which we call homotopic curve
    shortening (HCS), starts with a closed curve (which might self-intersect) in the
    presence of a set P⊂ ℝ² of point obstacles, and evolves in discrete steps, where
    each step consists of (1) taking shortcuts around the obstacles, and (2) reducing
    the curve to its shortest homotopic equivalent. We find experimentally that, if
    the initial curve is held fixed and P is chosen to be either a very fine regular
    grid or a uniformly random point set, then HCS behaves at the limit like the affine
    curve-shortening flow (ACSF). This connection between HCS and ACSF generalizes
    the link between "grid peeling" and the ACSF observed by Eppstein et al. (2017),
    which applied only to convex curves, and which was studied only for regular grids.
    We prove that HCS satisfies some properties analogous to those of ACSF: HCS is
    invariant under affine transformations, preserves convexity, and does not increase
    the total absolute curvature. Furthermore, the number of self-intersections of
    a curve, or intersections between two curves (appropriately defined), does not
    increase. Finally, if the initial curve is simple, then the number of inflection
    points (appropriately defined) does not increase.'

  text: 'Let K be a convex body in ℝⁿ (i.e., a compact convex set with nonempty interior).
    Given a point p in the interior of K, a hyperplane h passing through p is called
    barycentric if p is the barycenter of K ∩ h. In 1961, Grünbaum raised the question
    whether, for every K, there exists an interior point p through which there are
    at least n+1 distinct barycentric hyperplanes. Two years later, this was seemingly
    resolved affirmatively by showing that this is the case if p=p₀ is the point of
    maximal depth in K. However, while working on a related question, we noticed that
    one of the auxiliary claims in the proof is incorrect. Here, we provide a counterexample;
    this re-opens Grünbaum’s question. It follows from known results that for n ≥
    2, there are always at least three distinct barycentric cuts through the point
    p₀ ∈ K of maximal depth. Using tools related to Morse theory we are able to improve
    this bound: four distinct barycentric cuts through p₀ are guaranteed if n ≥ 3.'

  text: In the recent study of crossing numbers, drawings of graphs that can be extended
    to an arrangement of pseudolines (pseudolinear drawings) have played an important
    role as they are a natural combinatorial extension of rectilinear (or straight-line)
    drawings. A characterization of the pseudolinear drawings of K_n was found recently.
    We extend this characterization to all graphs, by describing the set of minimal
    forbidden subdrawings for pseudolinear drawings. Our characterization also leads
    to a polynomial-time algorithm to recognize pseudolinear drawings and construct
    the pseudolines when it is possible.

  text: "Algorithms in computational 3-manifold topology typically take a triangulation
    as an input and return topological information about the underlying 3-manifold.
    However, extracting the desired information from a triangulation (e.g., evaluating
    an invariant) is often computationally very expensive. In recent years this complexity
    barrier has been successfully tackled in some cases by importing ideas from the
    theory of parameterized algorithms into the realm of 3-manifolds. Various computationally
    hard problems were shown to be efficiently solvable for input triangulations that
    are sufficiently “tree-like.”\r\nIn this thesis we focus on the key combinatorial
    parameter in the above context: we consider the treewidth of a compact, orientable
    3-manifold, i.e., the smallest treewidth of the dual graph of any triangulation
    thereof. By building on the work of Scharlemann–Thompson and Scharlemann–Schultens–Saito
    on generalized Heegaard splittings, and on the work of Jaco–Rubinstein on layered
    triangulations, we establish quantitative relations between the treewidth and
    classical topological invariants of a 3-manifold. In particular, among other results,
    we show that the treewidth of a closed, orientable, irreducible, non-Haken 3-manifold
    is always within a constant factor of its Heegaard genus."

  text: 'We present solutions to several problems originating from geometry and discrete
    mathematics: existence of equipartitions, maps without Tverberg multiple points,
    and inscribing quadrilaterals. Equivariant obstruction theory is the natural topological
    approach to these type of questions. However, for the specific problems we consider
    it had yielded only partial or no results. We get our results by complementing
    equivariant obstruction theory with other techniques from topology and geometry.'

  text: 'A simple drawing D(G) of a graph G is one where each pair of edges share
    at most one point: either a common endpoint or a proper crossing. An edge e in
    the complement of G can be inserted into D(G) if there exists a simple drawing
    of   G+e  extending D(G). As a result of Levi’s Enlargement Lemma, if a drawing
    is rectilinear (pseudolinear), that is, the edges can be extended into an arrangement
    of lines (pseudolines), then any edge in the complement of G can be inserted.
    In contrast, we show that it is   NP -complete to decide whether one edge can
    be inserted into a simple drawing. This remains true even if we assume that the
    drawing is pseudocircular, that is, the edges can be extended to an arrangement
    of pseudocircles. On the positive side, we show that, given an arrangement of
    pseudocircles   A  and a pseudosegment   σ , it can be decided in polynomial time
    whether there exists a pseudocircle   Φσ  extending   σ  for which   A∪{Φσ}  is
    again an arrangement of pseudocircles.'

  text: "This paper presents two algorithms. The first decides the existence of a
    pointed homotopy between given simplicial maps \U0001D453,\U0001D454:\U0001D44B→\U0001D44C,
    and the second computes the group [\U0001D6F4\U0001D44B,\U0001D44C]∗ of pointed
    homotopy classes of maps from a suspension; in both cases, the target Y is assumed
    simply connected. More generally, these algorithms work relative to \U0001D434⊆\U0001D44B."

  text: "Two plane drawings of geometric graphs on the same set of points are called
    disjoint compatible if their union is plane and they do not have an edge in common.
    For a given set S of 2n points two plane drawings of perfect matchings M1 and
    M2 (which do not need to be disjoint nor compatible) are disjoint tree-compatible
    if there exists a plane drawing of a spanning tree T on S which is disjoint compatible
    to both M1 and M2.\r\nWe show that the graph of all disjoint tree-compatible perfect
    geometric matchings on 2n points in convex position is connected if and only if
    2n ≥ 10. Moreover, in that case the diameter\r\nof this graph is either 4 or 5,
    independent of n."

  text: "The input to the token swapping problem is a graph with vertices v1, v2,
    . . . , vn, and n tokens with labels 1,2, . . . , n, one on each vertex.  The
    goal is to get token i to vertex vi for all i= 1, . . . , n using a minimum number
    of swaps, where a swap exchanges the tokens on the endpoints of an edge.Token
    swapping on a tree, also known as “sorting with a transposition tree,” is not
    known to be in P nor NP-complete.  We present some partial results:\r\n1.  An
    optimum swap sequence may need to perform a swap on a leaf vertex that has the
    correct token (a “happy leaf”), disproving a conjecture of Vaughan.\r\n2.  Any
    algorithm that fixes happy leaves—as all known approximation algorithms for the
    problem do—has approximation factor at least 4/3.  Furthermore, the two best-known
    2-approximation algorithms have approximation factor exactly 2.\r\n3.  A generalized
    problem—weighted coloured token swapping—is NP-complete on trees, but solvable
    in polynomial time on paths and stars.  In this version, tokens and  vertices
    \ have  colours,  and  colours  have  weights.   The  goal  is  to  get  every
    token to a vertex of the same colour, and the cost of a swap is the sum of the
    weights of the two tokens involved."

  text: "Suppose that $n\\neq p^k$ and $n\\neq 2p^k$ for all $k$ and all primes $p$.
    We prove that for any Hausdorff compactum $X$ with a free action of the symmetric
    group $\\mathfrak S_n$ there exists an $\\mathfrak S_n$-equivariant map $X \\to\r\n{\\mathbb
    R}^n$ whose image avoids the diagonal $\\{(x,x\\dots,x)\\in {\\mathbb R}^n|x\\in
    {\\mathbb R}\\}$.\r\n  Previously, the special cases of this statement for certain
    $X$ were usually proved using the equivartiant obstruction theory. Such calculations
    are difficult and may become infeasible past the first (primary) obstruction.
    We\r\ntake a different approach which allows us to prove the vanishing of all
    obstructions simultaneously. The essential step in the proof is classifying the
    possible degrees of $\\mathfrak S_n$-equivariant maps from the boundary\r\n$\\partial\\Delta^{n-1}$
    of $(n-1)$-simplex to itself.  Existence of equivariant maps between spaces is
    important for many questions arising from discrete mathematics and geometry, such
    as Kneser's conjecture, the Square Peg conjecture, the Splitting Necklace problem,
    and the Topological Tverberg conjecture, etc. We demonstrate the utility of our
    result  applying it to one such question, a specific instance of envy-free division
    problem."

  text: "Denote by ∆N the N-dimensional simplex. A map f : ∆N → Rd is an almost r-embedding
    if fσ1∩. . .∩fσr = ∅ whenever σ1, . . . , σr are pairwise disjoint faces. A counterexample
    to the topological Tverberg conjecture asserts that if r is not a prime power
    and d ≥ 2r + 1, then there is an almost r-embedding ∆(d+1)(r−1) → Rd. This was
    improved by Blagojevi´c–Frick–Ziegler using a simple construction of higher-dimensional
    counterexamples by taking k-fold join power of lower-dimensional ones. We improve
    this further (for d large compared to r): If r is not a prime power and N := (d+
    1)r−r l\r\nd + 2 r + 1 m−2, then there is an almost r-embedding ∆N → Rd. For the
    r-fold van Kampen–Flores conjecture we also produce counterexamples which are
    stronger than previously known. Our proof is based on generalizations of the Mabillard–Wagner
    theorem on construction of almost r-embeddings from equivariant maps, and of the
    Ozaydin theorem on existence of equivariant maps. "

  text: "In this paper we study envy-free division problems. The classical approach
    to some of such problems, used by David Gale, reduces to considering continuous
    maps of a simplex to itself and finding sufficient conditions when this map hits
    the center of the simplex. The mere continuity is not sufficient for such a conclusion,
    the usual assumption (for example, in the Knaster--Kuratowski--Mazurkiewicz and
    the Gale theorem) is a certain boundary condition.\r\n  We follow Erel Segal-Halevi,
    Fr\\'ed\\'eric Meunier, and Shira Zerbib, and replace the boundary condition by
    another assumption, which has the economic meaning of possibility for a player
    to prefer an empty part in the segment\r\npartition problem. We solve the problem
    positively when $n$, the number of players that divide the segment, is a prime
    power, and we provide counterexamples for every $n$ which is not a prime power.
    We also provide counterexamples relevant to a wider class of fair or envy-free
    partition problems when $n$ is odd and not a prime power."

  text: The Tverberg theorem is one of the cornerstones of discrete geometry. It states
    that, given a set X of at least (d+1)(r-1)+1 points in R^d, one can find a partition
    X=X_1 cup ... cup X_r of X, such that the convex hulls of the X_i, i=1,...,r,
    all share a common point. In this paper, we prove a strengthening of this theorem
    that guarantees a partition which, in addition to the above, has the property
    that the boundaries of full-dimensional convex hulls have pairwise nonempty intersections.
    Possible generalizations and algorithmic aspects are also discussed. As a concrete
    application, we show that any n points in the plane in general position span floor[n/3]
    vertex-disjoint triangles that are pairwise crossing, meaning that their boundaries
    have pairwise nonempty intersections; this number is clearly best possible. A
    previous result of Alvarez-Rebollar et al. guarantees floor[n/6] pairwise crossing
    triangles. Our result generalizes to a result about simplices in R^d,d >=2.

  text: "The first part of the thesis considers the computational aspects of the homotopy
    groups πd(X) of a topological space X. It is well known that there is no algorithm
    to decide whether the fundamental group π1(X) of a given finite simplicial complex
    X is trivial. On the other hand, there are several algorithms that, given a finite
    simplicial complex X that is simply connected (i.e., with π1(X) trivial), compute
    the higher homotopy group πd(X) for any given d ≥ 2.\r\nHowever, these algorithms
    come with a caveat: They compute the isomorphism type of πd(X), d ≥ 2 as an abstract
    finitely generated abelian group given by generators and relations, but they work
    with very implicit representations of the elements of πd(X). We present an algorithm
    that, given a simply connected space X, computes πd(X) and represents its elements
    as simplicial maps from suitable triangulations of the d-sphere Sd to X. For fixed
    d, the algorithm runs in time exponential in size(X), the number of simplices
    of X. Moreover, we prove that this is optimal: For every fixed d ≥ 2,\r\nwe construct
    a family of simply connected spaces X such that for any simplicial map representing
    a generator of πd(X), the size of the triangulation of S d on which the map is
    defined, is exponential in size(X).\r\nIn the second part of the thesis, we prove
    that the following question is algorithmically undecidable for d < ⌊3(k+1)/2⌋,
    k ≥ 5 and (k, d) ̸= (5, 7), which covers essentially everything outside the meta-stable
    range: Given a finite simplicial complex K of dimension k, decide whether there
    exists a piecewise-linear (i.e., linear on an arbitrarily fine subdivision of
    K) embedding f : K ↪→ Rd of K into a d-dimensional Euclidean space."

  text: "We present an efficient algorithm for a problem in the interface between
    clustering and graph embeddings. An embedding ϕ : G → M of a graph G into a 2-manifold
    M maps the vertices in V(G) to distinct points and the edges in E(G) to interior-disjoint
    Jordan arcs between the corresponding vertices. In applications in clustering,
    cartography, and visualization, nearby vertices and edges are often bundled to
    the same point or overlapping arcs due to data compression or low resolution.
    This raises the computational problem of deciding whether a given map ϕ : G →
    M comes from an embedding. A map ϕ : G → M is a weak embedding if it can be perturbed
    into an embedding ψ ϵ : G → M with ‖ ϕ − ψ ϵ ‖ < ϵ for every ϵ > 0, where ‖.‖
    is the unform norm.\r\nA polynomial-time algorithm for recognizing weak embeddings
    has recently been found by Fulek and Kynčl. It reduces the problem to solving
    a system of linear equations over Z2. It runs in O(n2ω)≤ O(n4.75) time, where
    ω ∈ [2,2.373) is the matrix multiplication exponent and n is the number of vertices
    and edges of G. We improve the running time to O(n log n). Our algorithm is also
    conceptually simpler: We perform a sequence of local operations that gradually
    “untangles” the image ϕ(G) into an embedding ψ(G) or reports that ϕ is not a weak
    embedding. It combines local constraints on the orientation of subgraphs directly,
    thereby eliminating the need for solving large systems of linear equations.\r\n"

  text: We find a graph of genus 5 and its drawing on the orientable surface of genus
    4 with every pair of independent edges crossing an even number of times. This
    shows that the strong Hanani–Tutte theorem cannot be extended to the orientable
    surface of genus 4. As a base step in the construction we use a counterexample
    to an extension of the unified Hanani–Tutte theorem on the torus.

  text: "In graph theory, as well as in 3-manifold topology, there exist several width-type
    parameters to describe how \"simple\" or \"thin\" a given graph or 3-manifold
    is. These parameters, such as pathwidth or treewidth for graphs, or the concept
    of thin position for 3-manifolds, play an important role when studying algorithmic
    problems; in particular, there is a variety of problems in computational 3-manifold
    topology - some of them known to be computationally hard in general - that become
    solvable in polynomial time as soon as the dual graph of the input triangulation
    has bounded treewidth.\r\nIn view of these algorithmic results, it is natural
    to ask whether every 3-manifold admits a triangulation of bounded treewidth. We
    show that this is not the case, i.e., that there exists an infinite family of
    closed 3-manifolds not admitting triangulations of bounded pathwidth or treewidth
    (the latter implies the former, but we present two separate proofs).\r\nWe derive
    these results from work of Agol, of Scharlemann and Thompson, and of Scharlemann,
    Schultens and Saito by exhibiting explicit connections between the topology of
    a 3-manifold M on the one hand and width-type parameters of the dual graphs of
    triangulations of M on the other hand, answering a question that had been raised
    repeatedly by researchers in computational 3-manifold topology. In particular,
    we show that if a closed, orientable, irreducible, non-Haken 3-manifold M has
    a triangulation of treewidth (resp. pathwidth) k then the Heegaard genus of M
    is at most 18(k+1) (resp. 4(3k+1))."
