A graph $G$ with at least $2m+2$ edges is said to be distance $d$ $m$-extendable if for any matching $M$ in $G$ with $m$ edges in which the edges lie pair-wise distance at least $d$, there exists a perfect matching in $G$ containing $M$. In a previous paper, Aldred and Plummer proved that every $5$-connected triangulation of the plane or the projective plane of even order is distance $5$ $m$-extendable for any $m$. In this paper we prove that the same conclusion holds for every triangulation of the torus or the Klein bottle.

Abstract The resolutions and maximal sets of compatible resolutions of all 2-(120,8,1) designs arising from maximal (120,8)-arcs, and the 2-(52,4,1) designs arising from previously known maximal (52,4)-arcs, as well as some newly discovered maximal (52,4)-arcs in the known projective planes of order 16, are computed. It is shown that each 2-(120,8,1) design associated with a maximal (120,8)-arc is embeddable in a unique way in a projective plane of order 16. This result suggests a possible strengthening of the Bose–Shrikhande theorem about the embeddability of the complement of a hyperoval in a projective plane of even order. The computations of the maximal sets of compatible resolutions of the 2-(52,4,1) designs associated with maximal (52,4)-arcs show that five of the known projective planes of order 16 contain maximal arcs whose associated designs are embeddable in two nonisomorphic planes of order 16.

AbstractFor a non-trivial knot in the 3-sphere, only integral Dehn surgery can create a closed 3-manifold containing a projective plane. If we restrict ourselves to hyperbolic knots, the corresponding claim for a Klein bottle is still true. In contrast to these, we show that non-integral surgery on a hyperbolic knot can create a closed non-orientable surface of any genus greater than two.

This paper investigates existence and non-existence of immersions of Riemannian manifolds. It discovers the lowest dimension of the Euclidean space into which the projective plane FP2 is isometrically immersed, by the computation of the normal Euler class. For strictly hyperbolic immersion, a new obstruction involving signature or Kervaire semi-characteristic is found. As for the existence, it constructs a strictly hyperbolic immersion from the Klein bottle to the unit sphere S3(1), solving a question posed by Gromov.

In this paper we investigate the distances between Dehn fillings on a hyperbolic 3-manifold that yield 3-manifolds containing essential small surfaces including non-orientable surfaces. In particular, we study the situations where one filling creates an essential sphere or projective plane, and the other creates an essential sphere, projective plane, annulus, Möbius band, torus or Klein bottle, for all eleven pairs of such non-hyperbolic manifolds.

This chapter examines crossing numbers. When a particular graph is drawn on a given surface, what is the smallest possible number of crossings among the edges? The chapter is organized as follows. Section 1 introduces crossing numbers; reviews the surfaces D, R 2, S, M, P, and T and some connections between them; and gives some basic properties of the crossing numbers, culminating with the existence of P Σ‎ for any surface Σ‎. Sections 2–4 treat crossing numbers on the sphere, projective plane, and torus in turn. Section 5 lists some open problems suggested by this analysis, on the same three surfaces and also on the Klein bottle and beyond. We relegate to an appendix the computation of the integrals that figure in the bounds on P P and P T.

A vertex subset S of a graph G = (V, E) is a double dominating set for G if |N[v]∩S| ≥ 2 for each vertex v ∈ V, where N[v] = {u |uv ∈ E}∪{v}. The double domination number of G, denoted by γ×2(G), is the cardinality of a smallest double dominating set of G. A graph G is said to be double domination edge critical if γ×2(G + e) < γ×2(G) for any edge e ∉ E. A double domination edge critical graph G with γ×2(G) = k is called k - γ×2(G)-critical. In this paper, we first show that G has a perfect matching if G is a connected 3 - γ×2(G)-critical graph of even order. Secondly, we show that G is factor-critical if G is a connected 3 - γ×2(G)-critical graph with odd order and minimum degree at least 2. Finally, we show that G is factor-critical if G is a connected K1,4-free 4 - γ×2(G)-critical graph of odd order with minimum degree at least 2.
