Using an earlier characterization of simplicial hypergraphs we obtain a characterization of binary simplicial matroids in terms of the existence of a special base.

In our study of the extremities of a graph, we define a moplex as a maximal clique module the neighborhood of which is a minimal separator of the graph. This notion enables us to strengthen Dirac's theorem : "Every non-clique triangulated graph has at least two non-adjacent simplicial vertices", res
Consider a finite family of hyperplanes \_%? = {Hi, . \_. , H,} in the finite-dimensional vector space IWd. We call chambers (determined by 2) the connected components of W"\ U y=, Hi. Galleries are finite families of chambers (C,,,C,, , C,), where exactly one hyperplane separates Ci+i from Ci, for
It is proved that the choice number of every graph G embedded on a surface of Euler genus ε ≥ 1 and ε = 3 is at most the Heawood number H(ε) = (7 + √ 24ε + 1)/2 and that the equality holds if and only if G contains the complete graph K H(ε) as a subgraph.
