How large part of a graph can be covered by the neighborhoods of k vertices?

Janos Pach ยท 2026

Let $k\ge 2$ be fixed integer, $0<c<1$ a constant. Consider a graph $G$ with $n$ vertices and average degree $cn$. We answer a question of Simon Griffiths by showing that $G$ has $k$ vertices such thaโ€ฆ

Macroscopic loops in the random loop model on sparse random graphs

Andreas Klippel ยท 2026

We study the random loop model with crosses and bars on sparse random graphs. Our main objective is to prove the existence of macroscopic loops, in the sense that a loop visits a positive proportion oโ€ฆ

Maximally nodal sextic surfaces and linear determinantal representations

Yonghwa Cho ยท 2026

We prove that every maximally nodal sextic surface\,(with 65 nodes) $X \subset \mathbb{P}_{\mathbb{C}}^3$ contains a symmetric half-even set of nodes of cardinality 35. It follows that the associated โ€ฆ

Sutured manifold hierarchies and the Thurston nom

Alessandro V. Cigna ยท 2026

Classical work of Thurston and Gabai shows that finitely many taut sutured manifold hierarchies determine the Thurston norm of a compact oriented irreducible $3$-manifold with toroidal boundary. We giโ€ฆ
