Abstract

A graphic arrangement $\A_G$ associated with a simple graph $G$ is a classical and well-studied object in the theory of hyperplane arrangements. In this note, we show that, for a connected graph $G$, a slight modification of the logarithmic vector field $D(\A_G)$ of $\A_G$ is isomorphic to the face ring of a certain simplicial poset. This allows us to give formulas for several algebraic invariants of $D(\A_G)$, such as its Hilbert series, local cohomology, projective dimension, and Castelnuovo--Mumford regularity, in terms of combinatorial and topological information about the corresponding simplicial poset. As a by-product, we also give an explicit vector space basis of $D(\A_G)$.

Simplicial arrangements in real projective three-space revisited

In this paper we study irreducible simplicial arrangements of projective planes in $\mathbb{P}^{3}(\mathbb{R})$ from combinatorial and projective geometry viewpoints. We first formulate a simpliciality criterion in terms of incidences between rank-two and rank-three flats, together with equivalent formulations using fa...

Computing and Bounding the Number of Eulerian Orientations for Certain Classes of $4$-Regular Graphs

The bounds on the number of Eulerian orientations for certain classes of connected, loopless $4-regular graphs are improved and a divide-and-conquer algorithm is provided that leverages structural properties to compute the exact number of Eulerian orientations for separable graphs without exhaustive enumeration.

Simplex--center configurations in dense subsets of Euclidean spaces and the integer lattice

We obtain density Ramsey theorems for configurations consisting of the vertices of a simplex $\Delta_o$ together with their barycenter. We prove that any subset $A\subseteq\mathbb{R}^n$ of positive upper density contains an isometric copy of all sufficiently large dilates of $\Delta_o$ together with its barycenter. As...

Superpolynomial lower bounds for vertex numbers of real projective space triangulations via a topological Figiel-Lindenstrauss-Milman theorem

We prove that every simplicial triangulation of real projective $d$-space has $\exp(\Omega(\sqrt d))$ vertices. Together with known constructions, this determines the minimum vertex number as $\mu_d=\exp(d^{1/2+o(1)})$. The result follows from a topological generalization of the Figiel--Lindenstrauss--Milman inequality...

A planar algebraic Zarankiewicz theorem over prime fields

We prove an incidence bound for bipartite graphs on finite subsets of $\mathbb{F}^2\times \mathbb{F}^2$ defined by Boolean combinations of polynomial equations of bounded degree. If such a graph is $K_{k,k}$-free and its vertex classes have sizes $m$ and $n$, then it has $O_{t,k}((mn)^{2/3}+m+n+mn/p)$ edges, where $t$...

Comaximal Graphs of finite-dimensional Lie algebras over finite fields: Triangle counts and structural invariants

Let $L$ be a finite-dimensional Lie algebra over a field $F$. The comaximal graph $\Gamma(L)$ has as vertices the proper nonzero subalgebras of $L$, two of them adjacent whenever they generate $L$; its structure was previously classified for Lie algebras of dimension at most 3 over finite fields. Here we extend that wo...
