Lin-Lu-Yau introduced an interesting notion of Ricci curvature for graphs and obtained a complete characterization for all Ricci-flat graphs with girth at least five [1]. In this paper, we propose a concrete approach to construct an infinite family of distinct Ricci-flat graphs of girth four with edge-disjoint 4-cycles…

In this paper we show that flat (m-1)-dimensional tori give nontrivial rational homology cycles in congruence covers of the locally symmetric space SL(m,Z) \SL(m,R)/SO(m). We also show that the dimension of the subspace of H_{m-1}(Γ\SL(m,R)/SO(m);Q) spanned by flat (m-1)-tori grows as one goes up in congruence covers.

A graph G is intrinsically S^1-linked if for every embedding of the vertices of G into S^1, vertices that form the endpoints of two disjoint edges in G form a non-split link in the embedding. We show that a graph is intrinsically S^1-linked if and only if it is not outer-planar. A graph is outer-flat if it can be embed…

Topology of Foliations of the Riemann Surfaces given by the real part of generic holomorphic 1-forms, is studied. Our approach is based on the notion of Transversal Canonical Basis of Cycles (TCB) instead of using just one closed transversal curve as in the classical approach of the ergodic theory. In some cases the TC…
