✦ Synopsis
We show that neither the 3-ball nor the solid torus admits a triangulation in which (i) every vertex is on the boundary, and (ii) every tetrahedron has exactly one triangle on the boundary. Such triangulations are relevant to an unresolved conjecture of Perles.

The triangulations of the torus can be generated from a set of 21 minimal triangulations by vertex splitting. We show that if we never create a 3-valent vertex when we split them we generate the 4-connected triangulations. In addition if we never create two adjacent 4-valent vertexes then we gener
We give a simple proof of an estimate for the approximation of the Euclidean ball by a polytope with a given number of vertices with respect to the volume of the symmetric difference metric and relatively precise estimate for the Delone triangulation numbers. We also study the same problem for a giv
## Abstract It is proved that a class of sub‐Laplacians on the 3‐dimensional torus is globally analytic, Gevrey and __C__^∞^ hypoelliptic if and only if either a Diophantine condition holds or there is a point of finite type for the vector fields defining the operator under consideration. This work
We show that if \(G\) is a graph embedded on the torus \(S\) and each nonnullhomotopic closed curve on \(S\) intersects \(G\) at least \(r\) times, then \(G\) contains at least \(\left\lfloor\frac{3}{4} r\right\rfloor\) pairwise disjoint nonnullhomotopic circuits. The factor \(\frac{3}{4}\) is best
The interval number of a simple undirected graph G, denoted i(G), is the least nonnegative integer r for which we can assign to each vertex in G a collection of at most r intervals on the real line such that two distinct vertices u and w of G are adjacent if and only if some interval for u intersect
