Completing the Existence Problem for Integer Relative Heffter Arrays

Lorenzo Mella

Heffter arrays, introduced by Archdeacon in 2015, are combinatorial structures with applications to cyclic cycle systems and biembeddings of graphs on surfaces. Costa, Morini, Paso…

On relative simple Heffter spaces

Laura Johnson, Lorenzo Mella, Anita Pasotti

In this paper, we introduce the concept of a relative Heffter space which simultaneously generalizes those of relative Heffter arrays and Heffter spaces. Given a subgroup of an…

Heffter arrays over partial loops

Raúl M. Falcón, Lorenzo Mella

A Heffter array over an additive group is any partially filled array satisfying that: (1) each one of its rows and columns sum to zero in , and (2) if $i\in G\setminus\{…

The Hadamard multiary quasigroup product

Raúl M. Falcón, L. Mella, P. Vojtěchovský

The Hadamard quasigroup product has recently been introduced as a natural generalization of the classical Hadamard product of matrices. It is defined as the superposition operator…

The extended irregular domination problem

Lorenzo Mella, Anita Pasotti

In this paper we introduce a new domination problem strongly related to the following one recently proposed by Broe, Chartrand and Zhang. One says that a vertex of a graph …

A conjecture on the Crazy Knight's Tour Problem

Lorenzo Mella, Anita Pasotti

Let be an toroidal array containing filled and empty cells. Fix an orientation of each row and an orientation of each column…

A solution to the 7-prince's tour problem

Lorenzo Mella

In [1] the authors studied the closed tour problem on the chessboard of a chess piece, called -prince, leaving open the existence of such a tour when . In this…

Constructing generalized Heffter arrays via near alternating sign matrices

Lorenzo Mella, Tommaso Traetta

Let be a subset of a group (not necessarily abelian) such that is empty or contains only elements of order , and let $\mathbf{h}=(h_1,\ldots, h_m)\in \mathb…

Weak Heffter Arrays and biembedding graphs on non-orientable surfaces

Simone Costa, Lorenzo Mella, Anita Pasotti

In 2015, Archdeacon proposed the notion of Heffter arrays in view of its connection to several other combinatorial objects. In the same paper he also presented the following varian…

A class of highly symmetric Archdeacon embeddings

Simone Costa, Lorenzo Mella

Archdeacon, in his seminal paper , defined the concept of Heffter array to provide explicit constructions of biembeddings of the complete graph into orientable surfaces,…

Tight globally simple non-zero sum Heffter arrays and biembeddings

Lorenzo Mella, Anita Pasotti

Square relative non-zero sum Heffter arrays, denoted by , have been introduced as a variant of the classical concept of Heffter array. An $\mathrm{N}\m…
