Graph Complements of Cyclic Graphs
Graph complements of cylic graphs are homotopic to spheres or wedge sums of spheres. Their unit spheres are graph complements of path graphs and have Gauss-Bonnet curvature which converges to a limit.

Mickey Mouse Sphere Theorem
The Mickey mouse theorem assures that a connected positive curvature graph of positive dimension is a sphere.
Poincare-Hopf and the Clique Problem
The parametrized poincare-hopf theorem allows to see the f-vector of a graph in terms of the f-vector s of parts of the unit spheres of the graph.
Euler Game
We prove that any discrete surface has an Eulerian edge refinement. For a 2-disk, an Eulerian edge refinement is possible if and only if the boundary length is divisible by 3
Helmholtz free energy for simplicial complexes
Over spring break, the Helmholtz paper [PDF] has finished. (Posted now on “On Helmholtz free energy for finite abstract simplicial complexes”.) As I will have little time during the rest of the semester, it got thrown out now. It is an interesting story, relating to one of the greatest scientist, …
Sphere Spectrum
This is a research in progress note while finding a proof of a conjecture formulated in the unimodularity theorem paper.
Euler and Fredholm
The following picture illustrates the Euler and Fredholm theme in the special case of the prime graphs introduced in the Counting and Cohomology paper. The story there only dealt with the Euler characteristic, an additive valuation (in the sense of Klain and Rota). Since then, the work on the Fredholm …
