Slide 15 here
https://github.com/Ivan-Sergeyev/seymour/blob/main/slides/2024-10-09-project-proposal/2024-10-09-project-proposal.pdf
contains pictures that would be good for the ITP paper. Any idea what their intellectual property is? Can we simple redraw them?

I have now painstakingly finished recreating the diagrams in TikZ (I'll fix the labels later). Where do you want me to include them?

Can you also draw the 1-sum (sharing only a vertex) please?

Martin Dvořák (Feb 02 2026 at 09:27):

Would it be possible to draw what the overall graph (G) looks like for the 3-sum?

Cameron Rampell (Feb 08 2026 at 01:00):

I believe the overall graph for the 3-sum would be the same as the 2-sum, as per the diagrams you showed me earlier. Would a 1-sum just be two non-overlapping circles, or two circles that meet only at a point with no overlap otherwise?

The graph GG for the 3-sum would have one more vertex drawn in the intersection.
Am I wrong?

Both drawings are correct. I personally prefer the two circles that meet at a single point.

I was just following the diagram in the slide you sent me. I can change it if you want.

Martin Dvořák (Feb 19 2026 at 17:14):

Can you draw them in a way that makes sense for our paper? I think, if each of the images is in its own chapter, each image should be self-contained.

Here is an uploaded version. Let me know what you think.

Cameron Rampell (Feb 19 2026 at 17:23):

I'll go ahead and comment out the acknowledgements right now.

Martin Dvořák (Feb 19 2026 at 17:23):

"Acknowledgements Anonymous acknowledgements" looks OK.

Cameron Rampell (Feb 19 2026 at 17:24):

Do the diagrams look okay?

Martin Dvořák (Feb 19 2026 at 17:26):

Almost?

Cameron Rampell (Feb 19 2026 at 17:27):

Do you have any other feedback? I cannot do any work until around 3 PM PST.

Are you sure you aren't missing a vertex on the graph GG side?

Martin Dvořák (Feb 19 2026 at 17:28):

Also, what is the difference between G1G_1 and H1H_1 in your pictures?

Martin Dvořák (Feb 19 2026 at 17:29):

Maybe it makes sense but there is no explanation what it should mean. So I am confused and the reader will most likely be confused, too.

Martin Dvořák (Feb 19 2026 at 17:30):

Given that the figures are not referenced in the text, they need a full explanation right under the figures.
