  text: We prove that for every d ≥ 2, deciding if a pure, d-dimensional, simplicial
    complex is shellable is NP-hard, hence NP-complete. This resolves a question raised,
    e.g., by Danaraj and Klee in 1978. Our reduction also yields that for every d
    ≥ 2 and k ≥ 0, deciding if a pure, d-dimensional, simplicial complex is k-decomposable
    is NP-hard. For d ≥ 3, both problems remain NP-hard when restricted to contractible
    pure d-dimensional complexes. Another simple corollary of our result is that it
    is NP-hard to decide whether a given poset is CL-shellable.

  text: Simple drawings of graphs are those in which each pair of edges share at most
    one point, either a common endpoint or a proper crossing. In this paper we study
    the problem of extending a simple drawing D(G) of a graph G by inserting a set
    of edges from the complement of G into D(G) such that the result is a simple drawing.
    In the context of rectilinear drawings, the problem is trivial. For pseudolinear
    drawings, the existence of such an extension follows from Levi’s enlargement lemma.
    In contrast, we prove that deciding if a given set of edges can be inserted into
    a simple drawing is NP-complete. Moreover, we show that the maximization version
    of the problem is APX-hard. We also present a polynomial-time algorithm for deciding
    whether one edge uv can be inserted into D(G) when {u,v} is a dominating set for
    the graph G.

  text: 'The genus g(G) of a graph G is the minimum g such that G has an embedding
    on the orientable surface M_g of genus g. A drawing of a graph on a surface is
    independently even if every pair of nonadjacent edges in the drawing crosses an
    even number of times. The Z_2-genus of a graph G, denoted by g_0(G), is the minimum
    g such that G has an independently even drawing on M_g. By a result of Battle,
    Harary, Kodama and Youngs from 1962, the graph genus is additive over 2-connected
    blocks. In 2013, Schaefer and Stefankovic proved that the Z_2-genus of a graph
    is additive over 2-connected blocks as well, and asked whether this result can
    be extended to so-called 2-amalgamations, as an analogue of results by Decker,
    Glover, Huneke, and Stahl for the genus. We give the following partial answer.
    If G=G_1 cup G_2, G_1 and G_2 intersect in two vertices u and v, and G-u-v has
    k connected components (among which we count the edge uv if present), then |g_0(G)-(g_0(G_1)+g_0(G_2))|<=k+1.
    For complete bipartite graphs K_{m,n}, with n >= m >= 3, we prove that g_0(K_{m,n})/g(K_{m,n})=1-O(1/n).
    Similar results are proved also for the Euler Z_2-genus. We express the Z_2-genus
    of a graph using the minimum rank of partial symmetric matrices over Z_2; a problem
    that might be of independent interest. '

  text: The partial representation extension problem is a recently introduced generalization
    of the recognition problem. A circle graph is an intersection graph of chords
    of a circle. We study the partial representation extension problem for circle
    graphs, where the input consists of a graph G and a partial representation R′
    giving some predrawn chords that represent an induced subgraph of G. The question
    is whether one can extend R′ to a representation R of the entire graph G, that
    is, whether one can draw the remaining chords into a partially predrawn representation
    to obtain a representation of G. Our main result is an O(n3) time algorithm for
    partial representation extension of circle graphs, where n is the number of vertices.
    To show this, we describe the structure of all representations of a circle graph
    using split decomposition. This can be of independent interest.

  text: 'A thrackle is a graph drawn in the plane so that every pair of its edges
    meet exactly once: either at a common end vertex or in a proper crossing. We prove
    that any thrackle of n vertices has at most 1.3984n edges. Quasi-thrackles are
    defined similarly, except that every pair of edges that do not share a vertex
    are allowed to cross an odd number of times. It is also shown that the maximum
    number of edges of a quasi-thrackle on n vertices is [Formula presented](n−1),
    and that this bound is best possible for infinitely many values of n.'

  text: "Given a triangulation of a point set in the plane, a flip deletes an edge
    e whose removal leaves a convex quadrilateral, and replaces e by the opposite
    diagonal of the quadrilateral. It is well known that any triangulation of a point
    set can be reconfigured to any other triangulation by some sequence of flips.
    We explore this question in the setting where each edge of a triangulation has
    a label, and a flip transfers the label of the removed edge to the new edge. It
    is not true that every labelled triangulation of a point set can be reconfigured
    to every other labelled triangulation via a sequence of flips, but we characterize
    when this is possible. There is an obvious necessary condition: for each label
    l, if edge e has label l in the first triangulation and edge f has label l in
    the second triangulation, then there must be some sequence of flips that moves
    label l from e to f, ignoring all other labels. Bose, Lubiw, Pathak and Verdonschot
    formulated the Orbit Conjecture, which states that this necessary condition is
    also sufficient, i.e. that all labels can be simultaneously mapped to their destination
    if and only if each label individually can be mapped to its destination. We prove
    this conjecture. Furthermore, we give a polynomial-time algorithm (with \U0001D442(\U0001D45B8)
    being a crude bound on the run-time) to find a sequence of flips to reconfigure
    one labelled triangulation to another, if such a sequence exists, and we prove
    an upper bound of \U0001D442(\U0001D45B7) on the length of the flip sequence.
    Our proof uses the topological result that the sets of pairwise non-crossing edges
    on a planar point set form a simplicial complex that is homeomorphic to a high-dimensional
    ball (this follows from a result of Orden and Santos; we give a different proof
    based on a shelling argument). The dual cell complex of this simplicial ball,
    called the flip complex, has the usual flip graph as its 1-skeleton. We use properties
    of the 2-skeleton of the flip complex to prove the Orbit Conjecture."

  text: 'Motivated by fixed-parameter tractable (FPT) problems in computational topology,
    we consider the treewidth tw(M) of a compact, connected 3-manifold M, defined
    to be the minimum treewidth of the face pairing graph of any triangulation T of
    M. In this setting the relationship between the topology of a 3-manifold and its
    treewidth is of particular interest. First, as a corollary of work of Jaco and
    Rubinstein, we prove that for any closed, orientable 3-manifold M the treewidth
    tw(M) is at most 4g(M)-2, where g(M) denotes Heegaard genus of M. In combination
    with our earlier work with Wagner, this yields that for non-Haken manifolds the
    Heegaard genus and the treewidth are within a constant factor. Second, we characterize
    all 3-manifolds of treewidth one: These are precisely the lens spaces and a single
    other Seifert fibered space. Furthermore, we show that all remaining orientable
    Seifert fibered spaces over the 2-sphere or a non-orientable surface have treewidth
    two. In particular, for every spherical 3-manifold we exhibit a triangulation
    of treewidth at most two. Our results further validate the parameter of treewidth
    (and other related parameters such as cutwidth or congestion) to be useful for
    topological computing, and also shed more light on the scope of existing FPT-algorithms
    in the field.'

  text: In graph theory, as well as in 3-manifold topology, there exist several width-type
    parameters to describe how &quot;simple&quot; or &quot;thin&quot; 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. In 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). We derive
    these results from work of Agol and of Scharlemann and Thompson, 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 48(k+1) (resp. 4(3k+1)).

    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
    a common node or arc, due to data compression or low resolution. This raises the
    computational problem of deciding whether a given map '' : G ! M comes from an
    embedding. A map '' : G ! M is a weak embedding if it can be perturbed into an
    embedding ψ: G ! M with k'' "k < " for every &quot; &gt; 0. A polynomial-time
    algorithm for recognizing weak embeddings was recently found by Fulek and Kyncl
    [14], which reduces to solving a system of linear equations over Z2. It runs in
    O(n2!) O(n4:75) time, where 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 than [14]: We perform a sequence
    of local operations that gradually &quot;untangles&quot; the image ''(G) into
    an embedding (G), or reports that '' is not a weak embedding. It generalizes a
    recent technique developed for the case that G is a cycle and the embedding is
    a simple polygon [1], and combines local constraints on the orientation of subgraphs
    directly, thereby eliminating the need for solving large systems of linear equations.'

  text: We prove that for every d ≥ 2, deciding if a pure, d-dimensional, simplicial
    complex is shellable is NP-hard, hence NP-complete. This resolves a question raised,
    e.g., by Danaraj and Klee in 1978. Our reduction also yields that for every d
    ≥ 2 and k ≥ 0, deciding if a pure, d-dimensional, simplicial complex is k-decomposable
    is NP-hard. For d ≥ 3, both problems remain NP-hard when restricted to contractible
    pure d-dimensional complexes.

  text: We resolve in the affirmative conjectures of A. Skopenkov and Repovš (1998),
    and M. Skopenkov (2003) generalizing the classical Hanani-Tutte theorem to the
    setting of approximating maps of graphs on 2-dimensional surfaces by embeddings.
    Our proof of this result is constructive and almost immediately implies an efficient
    algorithm for testing whether a given piecewise linear map of a graph in a surface
    is approximable by an embedding. More precisely, an instance of this problem consists
    of (i) a graph G whose vertices are partitioned into clusters and whose inter-cluster
    edges are partitioned into bundles, and (ii) a region R of a 2-dimensional compact
    surface M given as the union of a set of pairwise disjoint discs corresponding
    to the clusters and a set of pairwise disjoint &quot;pipes&quot; corresponding
    to the bundles, connecting certain pairs of these discs. We are to decide whether
    G can be embedded inside M so that the vertices in every cluster are drawn in
    the corresponding disc, the edges in every bundle pass only through its corresponding
    pipe, and every edge crosses the boundary of each disc at most once.

  text: 'A drawing of a graph on a surface is independently even if every pair of
    nonadjacent edges in the drawing crosses an even number of times. The ℤ2-genus
    of a graph G is the minimum g such that G has an independently even drawing on
    the orientable surface of genus g. An unpublished result by Robertson and Seymour
    implies that for every t, every graph of sufficiently large genus contains as
    a minor a projective t × t grid or one of the following so-called t-Kuratowski
    graphs: K3, t, or t copies of K5 or K3,3 sharing at most 2 common vertices. We
    show that the ℤ2-genus of graphs in these families is unbounded in t; in fact,
    equal to their genus. Together, this implies that the genus of a graph is bounded
    from above by a function of its ℤ2-genus, solving a problem posed by Schaefer
    and Štefankovič, and giving an approximate version of the Hanani-Tutte theorem
    on orientable surfaces.'

    \ trivial), compute the higher homotopy group   \U0001D70B\U0001D451(\U0001D44B)
    \ for any given   \U0001D451≥2 . However, these algorithms come with a caveat:
    They compute the isomorphism type of   \U0001D70B\U0001D451(\U0001D44B) ,   \U0001D451≥2
    \ as an abstract finitely generated abelian group given by generators and relations,
    but they work with very implicit representations of the elements of   \U0001D70B\U0001D451(\U0001D44B)
    . Converting elements of this abstract group into explicit geometric maps from
    the d-dimensional sphere   \U0001D446\U0001D451  to X has been one of the main
    unsolved problems in the emerging field of computational homotopy theory. Here
    we present an algorithm that, given a simply connected space X, computes   \U0001D70B\U0001D451(\U0001D44B)
    \ and represents its elements as simplicial maps from a suitable triangulation
    of the d-sphere   \U0001D446\U0001D451  to X. For fixed d, the algorithm runs
    in time exponential in   size(\U0001D44B) , the number of simplices of X. Moreover,
    we prove that this is optimal: For every fixed   \U0001D451≥2 , we construct a
    family of simply connected spaces X such that for any simplicial map representing
    a generator of   \U0001D70B\U0001D451(\U0001D44B) , the size of the triangulation
    of   \U0001D446\U0001D451  on which the map is defined, is exponential in size(\U0001D44B)

  text: 'We give a detailed and easily accessible proof of Gromov’s Topological Overlap
    Theorem. Let X be a finite simplicial complex or, more generally, a finite polyhedral
    cell complex of dimension d. Informally, the theorem states that if X has sufficiently
    strong higher-dimensional expansion properties (which generalize edge expansion
    of graphs and are defined in terms of cellular cochains of X) then X has the following
    topological overlap property: for every continuous map (Formula presented.) there
    exists a point (Formula presented.) that is contained in the images of a positive
    fraction (Formula presented.) of the d-cells of X. More generally, the conclusion
    holds if (Formula presented.) is replaced by any d-dimensional piecewise-linear
    manifold M, with a constant (Formula presented.) that depends only on d and on
    the expansion properties of X, but not on M.'

  text: Due to data compression or low resolution, nearby vertices and edges of a
    graph drawing may be bundled to a common node or arc. We model such a “compromised”
    drawing by a piecewise linear map φ:G → ℝ. We wish to perturb φ by an arbitrarily
    small ε>0 into a proper drawing (in which the vertices are distinct points, any
    two edges intersect in finitely many points, and no three edges have a common
    interior point) that minimizes the number of crossings. An ε-perturbation, for
    every ε>0, is given by a piecewise linear map (Formula Presented), where with
    ||·|| is the uniform norm (i.e., sup norm). We present a polynomial-time solution
    for this optimization problem when G is a cycle and the map φ has no spurs (i.e.,
    no two adjacent edges are mapped to overlapping arcs). We also show that the problem
    becomes NP-complete (i) when G is an arbitrary graph and φ has no spurs, and (ii)
    when φ may have spurs and G is a cycle or a union of disjoint paths.

  text: In this paper we present a reliable method to verify the existence of loops
    along the uncertain trajectory of a robot, based on proprioceptive measurements
    only, within a bounded-error context. The loop closure detection is one of the
    key points in simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) methods, especially
    in homogeneous environments with difficult scenes recognitions. The proposed approach
    is generic and could be coupled with conventional SLAM algorithms to reliably
    reduce their computing burden, thus improving the localization and mapping processes
    in the most challenging environments such as unexplored underwater extents. To
    prove that a robot performed a loop whatever the uncertainties in its evolution,
    we employ the notion of topological degree that originates in the field of differential
    topology. We show that a verification tool based on the topological degree is
    an optimal method for proving robot loops. This is demonstrated both on datasets
    from real missions involving autonomous underwater vehicles and by a mathematical
    discussion.

  text: 'We show that the following algorithmic problem is decidable: given a 2-dimensional
    simplicial complex, can it be embedded (topologically, or equivalently, piecewise
    linearly) in R3? By a known reduction, it suffices to decide the embeddability
    of a given triangulated 3-manifold X into the 3-sphere S3. The main step, which
    allows us to simplify X and recurse, is in proving that if X can be embedded in
    S3, then there is also an embedding in which X has a short meridian, that is,
    an essential curve in the boundary of X bounding a disk in S3 \ X with length
    bounded by a computable function of the number of tetrahedra of X.'

  text: 'A thrackle is a graph drawn in the plane so that every pair of its edges
    meet exactly once: either at a common end vertex or in a proper crossing. We prove
    that any thrackle of n vertices has at most 1.3984n edges. Quasi-thrackles are
    defined similarly, except that every pair of edges that do not share a vertex
    are allowed to cross an odd number of times. It is also shown that the maximum
    number of edges of a quasi-thrackle on n vertices is 3/2(n-1), and that this bound
    is best possible for infinitely many values of n.'

  text: Let X and Y be finite simplicial sets (e.g. finite simplicial complexes),
    both equipped with a free simplicial action of a finite group G. Assuming that
    Y is d-connected and dimX≤2d, for some d≥1, we provide an algorithm that computes
    the set of all equivariant homotopy classes of equivariant continuous maps |X|→|Y|;
    the existence of such a map can be decided even for dimX≤2d+1. This yields the
    first algorithm for deciding topological embeddability of a k-dimensional finite
    simplicial complex into Rn under the condition k≤23n−1. More generally, we present
    an algorithm that, given a lifting-extension problem satisfying an appropriate
    stability assumption, computes the set of all homotopy classes of solutions. This
    result is new even in the non-equivariant situation.
