We define and study a model of winding for non-colliding particles in finite trees. We prove that the asymptotic behavior of this statistic satisfies a central limiting theorem, analogous to similar results on winding of bounded particles in the plane. We also propose certain natural open questions and conjectures, whose confirmation would provide new insights on configuration spaces of trees.

We introduce the random graph $mathcal{P}(n,q)$ which results from taking the union of two paths of length $ngeq 1$, where the vertices of one of the paths have been relabelled according to a Mallows permutation with real parameter $0<q(n)leq 1$. This random graph model, the tangled path, goes through an evolution: if $q$ is close to $0$ the graph bears resemblance to a path and as $q$ tends to $1$ it becomes an expander. In an effort to understand the evolution of $mathcal{P}(n,q)$ we determine the treewidth and cutwidth of $mathcal{P}(n,q)$ up to log factors for all $q$. We also show that the property of having a separator of size one has a sharp threshold. In addition, we prove bounds on the diameter, and vertex isoperimetric number for specific values of $q$.
We provide a random simplicial complex by applying standard constructions to a Poisson point process in Euclidean space. It is gigantic in the sense that - up to homotopy equivalence - it almost surely contains infinitely many copies of every compact topological manifold, both in isolation and in percolation.
We will construct differential forms on the embedding spaces Emb(R^j,R^n) for n-j>=2 using configuration space integral associated with 1-loop graphs, and show that some linear combinations of these forms are closed in some dimensions. There are other dimensions in which we can show the closedness if we replace Emb(R^j,R^n) by fEmb(R^j,R^n), the homotopy fiber of the inclusion Emb(R^j,R^n) -> Imm(R^j,R^n). We also show that the closed forms obtained give rise to nontrivial cohomology classes, evaluating them on some cycles of Emb(R^j,R^n) and fEmb(R^j,R^n). In particular we obtain nontrivial cohomology classes (for example, in H^3(Emb(R^2,R^5))) of higher degrees than those of the first nonvanishing homotopy groups.
Given a smooth quasiprojective variety $Y$ over $mathbb C$ that is not projective, consider its unordered configuration spaces $mathrm{Conf}^n(Y)$ for $ngeq 0$. Remove a point $P$ of $Y$ and obtain a one-puncture $Y-P$ of $Y$. We give a decomposition formula that computes the singular cohomology groups of $mathrm{Conf}^n(Y-P)$ in terms of those of $mathrm{Conf}^m(Y); (0leq mleq n)$, and prove it for several families of examples of $Y$, including the case where $Y$ is obtained from a smooth projective variety by puncturing one or more points. This formula keeps track of the mixed Hodge structures of the cohomology groups as well. This result simultaneously implies a result of Kallel involving Betti numbers and a consequence of a combinatorial property of configuration spaces due to Vakil and Wood. We also obtain intermediate results involving ordered configuration spaces that potentially work for more examples of $Y$.
We study configuration spaces of framed points on compact manifolds. Such configuration spaces admit natural actions of the framed little discs operads, that play an important role in the study of embedding spaces of manifolds and in factorization homology. We construct real combinatorial models for these operadic modules, for compact smooth manifolds without boundary.
