Tom Taylor studies the discrete geometry of network embeddings. Pervasive examples of network imbedding are the square pixel grids of color digital images, for which each pixel is mapped into a location in the three dimensional RGB color space. Other applications of special interest include friendship networks, political networks, trade networks, transportation networks, and semantic networks, as well as resource networks such as the power, fuel and water grids. Geometric measures on such networks provide useful tools for automated understanding of complicated properties and relationships within and between such large scale networks, such as discovering the natural partition of a friendship network into competing cliques or locating the bottlenecks that constrain the flow of electricity on the power grid.
